Thanks, Tom!!!

We recently had our roof replaced by Lyons Contracting and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. Several years ago, the owner, Tom, gave us an estimate and told us we could wait a bit longer before replacing the roof - a level of honesty that really stood out. So when the time came, there was no question that we’d call Tom.
From start to finish, Tom was responsive, professional, and upfront. His crew was outstanding - they worked efficiently, paid close attention to detail, and left the property spotless. We've even had neighbors compliment the workmanship and ask for Tom's contact info.
We highly recommend Lyons Contracting for anyone considering a roof replacement!

I called Tom for a quote on new gutters. He was friendly and came out to look at them. After discussion, he proposed that I wait to replace the gutters until I replace my roof because the roof likely only has a few years left. I was blown away by a contractor they would be looking out for my interests instead of just selling me new gutters that would have to be replaced!
We ultimately decided to have Tom’s team remove the awful gutter helmets that we had and repair the roof. The workmanship was excellent. Not only did the team take off the helmets, they cleaned all the gutters! Tom even asked then to fix a shingle that was sticking up because of a nail.
If they all wasn’t enough, they braved a hornets nest to do the work and removed it in the process. Planning to have Tom’s team back to replace the roof when it is time.

Lyons Contracting had done a great job replacing the membrane roof on my addition several years ago, so I contacted Tom Petrilli this past December to get an estimate for replacing the slate roof on my rowhouse in Del Ray. I couldn’t be happier with the work they did!
This past December, Tom was quick with giving me an estimate, sending me a contract, and putting me on his schedule. He let me know when he and his team would show up, what to expect when they started the work, and how to contact him. His team appeared on time, prepped the work area, and started the demolition work with speed and proficiency. At the end of the day, they meticulously cleaned the area of old nails, old slate, and the other debris.
Any time I had questions, I could call Tom and get a quick reply if not a visit on site. His team was experienced, knowledgeable, and efficient – a pleasure to work with. When they found that some wood around two dormer windows had rotted, Tom told me and I agreed to have him find someone he trusted to make repairs before the slate was installed around the windows. The repair work happened on time and did not affect the end date for the roof. It was a pleasure to see the care with which they trimmed and installed the slate tiles and copper flashing. And the new roof looks beautiful! I could not be happier with the results. In addition, the final cost (and time line) matched the contract estimate plus the very reasonable repairs to the windows. Many thanks to Tom’s whole crew and to Tom for their professional installation. I would not choose anyone else to touch my roof.

I've lived in my house for about 20 years. After I noticed water damage along one of my dining room walls under a skylight, I called Lyons Contracting. The owner, Tom, came over on a Saturday to take a look. I appreciated that he recorded video while on the roof to explain what was happening. He also could see that the roof shingles were various ages because of previous tree damage and repairs isolated to certain sections of the roof. Ultimately, I decided to replace the entire roof and the skylights in my dining room. After the old shingles were off, he took additional video to show me the water damage to the underlying wood. It was a great experience with excellent communication throughout. I highly recommend!

Totally professional and did a great job on our roof. Estimate/price a very good value. Tom kept us in the loop every step. Roof workers went above and beyond on post-job clean-up. And they really paid attention to their work. They installed our original roof in 2012 and here replaced part of roof damaged by falling branches during storm. Glad we stuck with them.

Immediate answer from Tom. Came out the same day, shared a narrated video of the roof problem, reasonable quote, then did the work next day, complete with pictures during and after repair. Highly recommend!

I am lucky to have found Mr. Petrilli and his team at Lyons Contracting. They did a terrific job on a tricky flat roof the first time I contracted them. I had no hesitation to contract them a second time; I find them to be trustworthy and professional and to take pride in the quality of their work.

We had an amazing experience working with Thomas and his team! From start to finish, he was extremely professional, responsive, and straightforward. After talking to another company before meeting Thomas, we realized how much of a difference it makes to work with a local, small business. The other company wasted 4 hours of our time with high-pressure marketing and quoted us double the price!
Thomas came over, inspected the roof, and told us exactly what needed to be done—no pressure, no upselling, just honesty. His team was equally professional and did a fantastic job. The quality of their work speaks for itself, and the cost was very reasonable.
If you’re looking for excellent service without breaking the bank, I highly recommend Thomas and his team. Supporting local businesses like his is a win-win—they provide exceptional work without the big-company overhead costs passed on to you. We couldn’t be happier with the results!

We had four bids and Lyons was the most reasonable. What a quality job they did on our difficult flat roof, which included moving a gas line. So professional. The best roofer in the area!

I recently had my roof replaced in summer 2024. The job was completed quickly and efficiently. Tom was incredibly professional, taking the time to explain the entire process and answer all my questions. I highly recommend this team for anyone needing roofing work!

lyons contracting replaced my roof last week. they were very professional and left the sight in very clean condition each day. The work turned out just as they said it would i recommend them highly, I would do it again (but hopefully not for 30 years)

Tom was outstanding. Responsive, on time, honest, knowledgeable, with no pressure or upselling, and completed the repair during the initial visit. Really grateful for the time and the experience.

Lyons Contracting truly impressed me. The responsiveness from the team is above and beyond. Tom is patient, thorough, and knowledgeable. I would 100% refer them and use them again.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lyons Contracting, and I can’t speak highly enough of their exceptional service. From start to finish, their team demonstrated unparalleled professionalism and dedication to excellence. What truly sets Lyons Contracting apart is their commitment to customer satisfaction. Throughout the entire process, they maintained open communication, promptly addressing any questions or concerns I had. Their team was also incredibly courteous and respectful, making the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable.
If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy roofing contractor, I highly recommend Lyons Contracting.

I am delighted to write a glowing review for Tom Petrilli and Lyons Contracting. Their level of professionalism and expertise was evident from the very beginning. Tom came out promptly for an estimate, took the time to inspect the roof with me, explained the details and answered all my questions thoroughly and patiently. What sets Tom and Lyons Contracting apart from other roofers is their genuine concern for their customers' needs. They never tried to sell me expensive services I didn't need, which was a refreshing change from other roofers I had spoken to. Instead, they focused on determining the best solution for my needs, which I found to be incredibly honest. The quality of their work is exceptional and it shows in the final product. Tom and his team take great pride in their work and it's clear that they are committed to delivering the highest level of craftsmanship. While their estimate wasn't the cheapest, it was very competitive and fair, and I am confident that I could not have gotten a higher quality roof than the one Lyons Contracting installed. I am thrilled with the final result and have complete peace of mind knowing that my roof is in excellent condition and will protect my home for many years to come. In summary, I highly recommend Tom Petrilli and Lyons Contracting for all your roofing and gutter needs. Their level of expertise, professionalism, and honesty is unmatched, and I am confident that you will be thrilled with the final product. A+!

I had a small roof replaced. Thomas was great to work with. Very responsive, sent me videos and pictures as the work was being done, reasonable and competitively priced, started and finished the work as scheduled, cleaned up after. Zero complaints.

Lyons Contracting did an excellent job on my roof replacement. The company did my neighbor's roof and they recommended them. Tom was very responsive to my request for a proposal for a roof replacement. He came to my house the day after I called him to discuss what I wanted and what should be done. He quickly generated a proposal and cost estimate. When we accepted, we decided we wanted some additional work and Tom very quickly provided a revised cost estimate. The work was scheduled to begin two days after signing the contract.
The crew showed up on time on the scheduled day and went straight to work. Throughout the workday, they answered any questions we had. They were very professional, courteous, and friendly.
Tom and the company were very professional throughout the entire process. He never tried to up sell any materials or unnecessary services. I can't commend him and the crew enough. I highly recommend them.

Tom is my go-to roofing guy: responsive, professional, local, quick, reasonably priced and excellent quality. This time his team did a gorgeous copper seamed roof over a DR bump out. My bungalow has a little bling! My neighbor also uses Lyons Contracting and said Tom's proposal was the lowest price and best quality of all six. I didn't bother getting other proposals. I know Tom is going to be fair and stand by his work.

Tom was a Godsend when we needed a new roof before installing solar panels. He has great integrity and does the highest quality work.

I worked with Tom from Lyons Construction. He did an outstanding job of explaining the options for my roof and the risks of each option. I was impressed with the work and thoroughness of his crew. I would definitely recommend Lyons Construction for roofing needs.

Tom Petrilli @ Lyons Contracting, Inc went above and beyond to help us resolve a roof leak. Tom was personally involved, very responsive, and extremely knowledgable in getting to the bottom of our problem quickly and affordably. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Lyons Contracting for any roofing needs!! I will be using his services if necessary in the future and will also recommend him to friends and family.
Thanks Tom!!

I am so glad I was referred Tom and Lyons Contracting to inspect my roof for a leak. I had been dealing with another company but it took them three visits, a hole cut in my ceiling, and three weeks to give me a quote. When I reached out to Tom late on a Friday he responded right away and scheduled an appointment for the following Monday. It turned out my roof was at end-of-life and he gave me a quote the following day to replace it. He also said he could do the job by the end of the month. Although his quote was twice as much as the first company's, Tom's quote was for a full replacement and not the band-aid the other company was proposing. I also found the videos on Tom's website that explained everything to be very helpful in understanding the difference in quality. He also sent me video from the before and after so I could see what my roof looked like. The crew came out and worked all day to finish the project including replacing rotted sections of the roof deck and facing where there had been water damage. And now I don't have to worry about my roof for another 20+ years! I highly recommend Tom and Lyons Contracting if you need to have your roof repaired or replaced, especially if it's a flat roof in Alexandria.

I am so glad that someone referred Tom and Lyons Contracting to inspect my roof for a possible replacement. When I reached out to Tom for a consult he responded right away and gave me a quote to replace the roof within a day. I was pleasantly surprised at the quote, I was expecting something over inflated given that this is NOVA and it's post-covid, but the final price was 100% fair given the size of my roof. The crew came out and worked 9+ hours a day to finish the project including replacing sections of the roof deck where there had been water damage. And they cleaned everything up, there was no trace that they had even been here. If you need to have your roof repaired or replaced call Tom and Lyons Contracting, they will take care of you.

Thomas was a huge help to me and came through when I experienced a recent leak. He came out to the house himself, was professional, efficient and friendly. He fixed the issue and despite my minor moment of panic, reassured me it would be fine and made me laugh. I highly recommend Lyons Contracting if you are in need of roof repair/work. Thomas was great.

Lyons Contracting did an amazing job inspecting, and replacing our roof. There were many complex issues/problems with the roof that warranted a full replacement. Tom took the time to discuss the options and answered my questions in a way that made me very comfortable with our decision. Tom obtained the permits necessary to do the work and we navigated winter weather to get it scheduled. His crew was extremely professional, punctual and performed flawlessly. I highly recommend them for any of your roofing needs.

Tom was EXCELLENT. He came out very quickly, assessed and gave great recommendations for our roof leak. He was super professional and easy to work with/communicate with. Would highly recommend to anyone I know!

Tom, the manager, was very responsive, explained everything in detail and patiently answered all my questions. I observed his installation team closely - they were extremely diligent in their work and went out of their way to clean up the old roof materials. I am highly satisfied with their work and I absolutely recommend Lyons Contracting for any type of roof replacement.

Excellent experience. The onsite team was professional, thorough and efficient. The roof and new ridge vents look great, and my property was well protected and left clean. Tom explained everything during the estimate and he was easy to work with throughout the process. I highly recommend Lyons!

Excellent experience!! Tom is professional and easy to work with. He provides transparency for all costs involved. He communicated through the whole process, no surprises. The team was on time, worked diligently and left my property neat and tidy. My roof looks great, I could not be happier!

A limb fell through our roof and the guys from Lyons came out a few days later to make repairs. Fast and friendly service during a difficult time.

Tom and his team are amazing! Not only is he clearly very knowledgeable and experienced when it comes to his work, he kindly and thoroughly answered every question we asked — from the most reasonable to completely inane. Thanks to him, we not only have a wonderful new roof, we also understand what every vent up there does and know exactly what changes he and his team made and why.

We discovered a leak in our roof during a storm and cold-called this place three minutes before they closed. Someone answered and set us up right away. Everyone we interacted with was courteous, professional, and prompt.

Lyons Contracting did a great job installing a new roof. His crew were hard working and professional. I would highly recommend them for any roofing work you need.

As a result of recent wind storm our home in Alexandria experienced damage to our metal roof. Tom and Lyons Contracting were quick to return our call and expediently sent a service team that efficiently repaired the damage. Highly recommended.

In a bad windstorm, a portion of the trim on our roof blew off. I called Lyons Contracting and they knew exactly how to repair it. They came in a timely manner and it is now fixed. I appreciate their responsiveness, expertise, concern about safety, and friendliness. I would highly recommend Lyons Contracting for any roof work you need. Joan

Tom was very knowledgable and easy to talk to when discussion options. His crews works fast and the quality is amazing. So much so that I was the 5th person on my street to use Lyons Contracting to get a roof and gutters.

I chose Lyons based on the experience of friends who also had their roof replaced by Lyons, and am more than happy with the choice! Very fair price, excellent work, thorough clean-up after removing the old shingles and after completion of installation of new shingles. Photographs were taken (and supplied along with the invoice) of all damaged wood that needed replacing prior to installation of new shingles. All-in-all, a great experience.

Our roof looks great. Our house is very old and had accumulated some problems. They took care of everything. The job took two days, but the crew cleaned up the area after the first day and left the site very clean after the job was done. We’re delighted with the look of the roof and are pleased that they included ventilation features that improved on the original roof. We have no complaints about the whole process. A couple of months after the job, a 50+ mph wind blew a tree branch onto the roof and tore some shingles. Within 18 hours of my call to Tom, the shingles were replaced, no questions asked. And of course the roof looks perfect.

Lyons was able to identify and repair my roof issue immediately. I was shown the problem and advised on how to identify future issues. I will definitely call Lyons for all my future roofing needs.
Update 4/2025: Called Tom for some more roof work. Still 5 star service, great roofing replacement, excellent communication, done timely and perfect clean up afterwards. I'm especially happy with my new gutter guards! This is the kind of company you look for but rarely find. Couldn't be better.

I will gladly add my voice to the number of people who have praised Tom and team for their work. They removed our old, decaying bitumen roof with white heat-welded TPO, starting and finishing within a day, and left the site possibly cleaner than thay found it. The final invoice was identical to the initial quote. We had assumed that our gutter and facia board should both be replaced while the crew were up there, and it would have been easy money for them to do so; but Tom indicated they were both still perfectly servicable, and we needn't spend the money on replacements. Tom is great with sending timely communications and updates (photos/videos) of job progress and completion. Highly recommended!

Tom Petrilli and his crew did a great job in replacing my flat/low-slopped roof in Alexandria at a very fair price. They were very professional in their setup and execution of the work. Tom was in constant communication with me during the entirety of the process and answered all my questions. He provided video and picture updates of anything him and his crew noticed or worked on which I really appreciated. They also made sure to clean up not only my, but my neighbors properties of any debris from the roof work. Overall I am very satisfied with the whole process and my new roof. I highly recommend Tom Petrilli of Lyons Contracting if you are in need of flat/low-slopped roof replacement.

I cannot recommend Tom and his team highly enough! We recently moved to the area and had him inspect the roof of the house we were buying. He came back with a thorough assessment, suggestions, and estimates for any work. I was worried about the state of the roof given its relatively old age, so I asked Tom for his frank assessment. He gave me his honest opinion if he were in my shoes, and said I would likely be fine without a roof replacement at the moment. Someone less principled could have easily taken advantage of the situation, said I needed a new roof, and charged me ~$20k. Having him choose honesty and integrity over up-charging me speaks to the quality of this company. We had him install gutter guards due to the heavy presence of tree debris in the area; the work was very well done and timely despite his busy schedule. Tom and his team have my highest endorsement for anyone in the NCR area.

Great Exp. from beginning to end. Very communicative- lots of pictures explaining the whole process and throughout the construction. Service was completed quickly and the employees really took care of my property and left it better than they found it. Thrilled with the high quality work and will use Lyons again! What a relief to find affordable, high quality work!

Excellent service! Thomas is extremely professional and knowledgeable on roofing. He was able to quickly identify the problem I was having with my roof and was able to fix it same day. I would definitely work with Thomas again on future roofing projects!

Thomas Petrilli, owner of Lyons Contracting, and an amazing crew, installed a new shingle roof and replaced eight skylights with new curbs on our home in November 2021. I contacted Lyons Contracting and asked if it was possible to get an assessment of my already aging roof. In two days, Tom, was on my roof recording a video pointing out all aspects of its entire condition. Tom provided a proposal with a description of work for shingle roofing and roofing options. He was constantly and
consistently available with replies to my questions via text or e-mail. Tom was honest, courteous and professional throughout the whole process. The work site, each day, was left in impeccable condition and the payment process was simple and straight-forward. I enthusiastically recommend Tom Petrilli of Lyons Contracting for all your roofing needs.

Lyon’s came to our house to investigate a leak. They had a suspicion that a small bit of sealant would solve the problem. They did that for free! I’ll call them if the sealant gives up but so far so good. These guys know what they’re doing and are good to their customers.

Very professional and the only quote we could obtain that would actually reengineer the poorly designed awning on the house we just bought. At least 2 layers of completely rotten code violation are no longer attached to our house. All the work done in one day and I'm fully confident we'll have no more water damage due. Updates throughout the day with pictures such as below so that I don't have to climb up there to inspect. About as fun as a roofing project can be.

Lyons did an excellent job in replacing my roof and making extensive repairs to the decking. They were on time, extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. The price was not nearly what I had feared. I have zero complaints about this company and recommend them to anyone needing a new roof, roof repairs, or both.

To repair a roof leak I needed a solar panel moved, and Tom was able to find someone to do the job when all the other roofers (and so many others) took a pass on solving my problem. I'm indebted to him. And the roof looks great. Unequivocally recommend him to anyone.

Lyons Contracting was the only company that didn't try to give me the hard sell on a roof replacement. He was able to quickly diagnose the problem (loose roofing nail) and come up with a quality fix. Very happy with his professionalism and timely help. Five stars!

The very professional, hard working crew installed the new slate roof quickly and beautifully. After finishing the job, they also cleaned up the work area thoroughly.

Every interaction with Tom and the team was outstanding. He arrived on time when he came out to provide a quote. He asked questions to inform his proposal, ultimately offering a proposal that address our specific needs without trying to over sell us on unnecessary items or more than what we wanted. Tom was also very patient with us and answered numerous questions throughout the entire process. He was honest, direct, and super responsive. The day of the roof installation the team arrived on time. The set up and clean up were great. The roof installation was awesome; the team did a great job! We couldn't be happier! I wish Lyon's/Tom was a company that provided a service/product that I required more frequently; it was such an overall great experience!

We recently had a fallen tree limb damage our roof, which caused some leakage. Lyons Contracting had installed our roof about 6 years ago, so I reached out to them. Tom responded very quickly and professionally and took care of the issue promptly, treating us as a priority even though it was not a major project. He stood by his work and was extremely helpful and professional.

First class operation. Based on a recommendation from a friend, Tom replaced our roof a couple of years ago and we were very pleased with the experience. It looks beautiful and has stayed in great shape for several years. Very responsive and great customer service. I don't think we'll need another roof anytime soon, but I would 100% recommend Tom to a friend or family member in the area.

Lyons Contracting was recommended to me by a neighbor. I called to set up an appointment and met with Thomas Petrilli to get a quote. From the very beginning, Tom was super friendly and walked me through the process. I spoke with him about some damage to our chimney and he recommended another company that also ended up being completely hassle free. He gave a fair price and in hindsight it's a deal once you factor how smooth everything went.
When the crew arrived to install the new architectural shingles and gutter covers, they were friendly and very professional. Someone was on the ground constantly cleaning up any debris that hit the ground. It took them just over a day to do the install and we never had one single issue.
Had I known it was this easy, I probably would've done it sooner :)

Tom is responsive, professional and honest. I have worked with Lyons at both of my homes, one of which was a 60 year old slate roof. Recently, we neglected to promptly clean our gutters and it caused water to sit on our roof line. Tom came out the next morning and quickly assessed the situation. He informed us that we did not have a larger roof issue and gave us practical advice instead of a bill. This is only my second google review, but when you are lucky enough to find good partner it is worth sharing. I highly recommend Tom and Lyons!

Tom and his team were incredibly helpful and speedy. He conducted a thorough inspection of our roof and had a team over in less than 24 hours to fix the issue at a very reasonable price. I'd definitely use them again!

We hired Lyons Contracting to install a new ridge vent on our roof - they did an incredible job, and exceeded all of our recommendations. Highly recommend!!

Mr Petrilli inspected my roof and provided both a repair and a replacement estimate for it. All was done in a timely and professional manner. Highly recommended.

This is the second first class experience I have had with Tom and Lyons Contracting. He saved the day on my 90 year old row house in Old Town and just replaced my roof and parapet flashing on my 1970's townhouse in Annandale. Top quality, expert installation, good price and no follow up needed. Great company to do business with all around.

I called several roof repair companies in the area and Lyons was the most responsive. Instead of trying to upsell me over the phone (which a handful of companies did), Tom came out and gave me an honest assessment of the work that needed to be done. In fact, even though I have an older roof he told me it’s in good shape and the issue I was experiencing was due to the masonry. Hopefully I don’t have roof issues in the near future, but I definitely know who I’m calling if I do.

Lyons did a fantastic job with our roof. They were professional, prompt, and well-priced. I especially liked that they answered several of my (probably dumb) questions, and before I ever committed to the full roof replacement, the project manager came to my house a couple of times to fix small issues.

Thomas Petrilli owner of Lyons Contracting does a great job. They did my roof over 25 years ago and this past week replaced it with a new roof. Tom and his team are very professional and I would have no problem recommending him.

This is the second home I have had Lyons Contracting install a new roof on. The owner Tom is super responsive, smart, honest, and trustworthy. His crew works hard and cleans up everyday. The quality and detail is off the chart. I sleep better knowing Tom installed the roof over my family’s head. I cannot recommend them enough.

I've used Lyon's Contracting to replace two roofs, a duplex and a ranch. Contract price was very competitive. Each installation took one day, work was professionally done, and site cleanup was excellent. Highly recommended.

Beyond impressed with our experience with Lyons and will keep this company at the top of our list for any future roofing needs! After discovering rainwater leaking into our home's Florida room (low slope roof over enclosed porch) and contacting a couple of contractors for repair, Lyons was not only the first to respond, but immediately coordinated with us for addressing the issue. Less than 24 hours after initially reaching out, the leak was fixed. Other contractors were slated to "check it out" almost a week later. The quote for a roof repair we received was also very reasonable. I would trust Lyons for any and all future work.

I’ve used Lyon Roofing to perform repairs on a historic house in Old Town Alexandria. They are very professional, reasonably priced and punctual! I would highly recommend them!

Loved working with Tom and the team from Lyons. Quality work, reasonable prices, professional, safe, and even fun to work with!

Tom and his team provide quality workmanship, they are honest, responsive and provide great advice on your projects. I highly recommend Lyons Contracting and will continue to work with them in the future.

We were in need of a new roof with new gutters and we had been reaching out/receiving quotes from different contracting roofing companies. We were also looking for ways to ventilate our attic better rather than the installed attic fan, and we wanted something that was proven to work. We came across Tom's company, Lyons Contracting, and received a quote from him as well. Tom was patient in answering all our questions and in providing us with information to help make our final decision. Tom is honest, straight-forward and experienced - those are 3 qualities that we look for. Tom's quote was reasonably priced in comparison, in addition he and his team provided quality work and professionalism using only the best of the best materials. If you are looking for these qualities in a contracting company for roofing and/or gutters, we would highly recommend Tom of Lyons Contracting! Tom / Lyons Contracting is best of the best!

Lyons Contracting was very professional and easy to work with. They did a great job; they were diligent and thorough.

Very responsive on initial inquiry, made quick fair proposal on a flat roof replacement on our town home. Workmanship excellent, clearly experienced and skilled in TPO flat roof installation. Contractor was communicative and service-oriented throughout, work crew was efficient and thoroughly cleaned up after a messy demo of old roof. Would highly recommend Lyons for any similar job.

Can I just say simply amazing. Tom called, had time scheduled, and a team out all within about an 8 day period from initial call to finished work. He was extremely kind and professional as he did our roofing assessment. The process, quote, and payment was all done electronically, really easy. They are the only group I will be using for any of my roofing needs. Thanks again Tom and Lyon’s contracting!

Fabulous responsiveness, tremendous workmanship - Made an inquiry over the weekend and got a quick response on Monday. Came by for the estimate the next day and work started and finished the 2 days later. I couldn't ask for a better experience.

There was a minor issue with the gutters not being level, so the gutters were replaced on the back of my house. Later I started having the same issues, they helped me debug the issue and made it right. They were even able to bump my appointment up to get it done early.

They were very professional and very responsive of the bunch of contracting companies I talked to. They had one of the best estimate for the job too. Totally satisfied with how they turned around our Roof. We were having leaks and our roof needed some serious work. They took their time to do the job right and did not rush to finish it and go. I am very genuinely satisfied with their work. Thank you guys!

We had a major emergency with our roof leaking. Owner Tom Petrilli personally came to our home the day of our call and performed an inspection, documented the issues with photos and videos taken during his inspection, then provided us with guidance and options.
We decided to have Tom's team replace our entire roof. Tom had his crew begin their work within a couple of days and they did a SPECTACULAR job! They were very hard working and professional while Tom was involved and kept us informed every step of the way.
Our sincere thanks to Tom and everyone at Lyons. We strongly recommend their services without hesitation!

I received Tom's info from my neighbor after having his roof replaced by Lyons Contracting.
My experience with Tom was great. Tom came out to assess the house shortly after I reached out and then sent professional estimates and invoicing through his online portal that detail the cost of the job. His price was very reasonable.
The roofing team was professional and replaced a half of dozen boards that had come loose. Additionally, they recommended removing my old attic fan for a newer, passive ventilation system which is working beautifully. Afterwards, I noticed that almost all of my neighbors already had this system so looks like I was late to the trend.
One thing to note is that Tom mentioned in the estimate that some debris may fall into the attic due to the work. I did have about a gallon's worth of wood chips and sawdust spread throughout the attic left over from installing the new ventilation system and replacing the roof boards. I don't see how this can be avoided but wanted put it in here so customers are aware.
I highly recommend Tom's services to anyone looking for roof repair/replacement.

Tom was just super to deal with and the job was done on time with superior quality
I’m looking forward to having Lyons do another project for me very soon
Thank you

Tom has been great and did a terrific job on our slate roof repair. Friendly, professional, timely and reasonable pricing structure. Much appreciated and will use again for future work.

Flawless experience. Tom was amazing to work with throughout. Super responsive. Great communication, and a great value overall. I had a ton of questions and he addressed them all patiently and made sure to get the job done as described. Great crew too! The job was a full roof replacement and we could not be happier. Thank you!

We had a good experience with Lyons Contracting. Within a week after signing the contract they came. They started the work with few instructions from us. Communication with them was easy. They worked efficiently and they were well organized. A whole roof dismantling and installation was done in less than eight hours (with a lunch break).
They left the worksite: garden, shrubs, outside furniture, air conditioner clean. At our request they took a series of pictures of the old and new roofs.
Price was reasonable as was the warranty for workmanship. Excellent work performance; we can recommend Lyons Contracting.

Tom and his folks did stellar roof repair work for me recently. Responded promptly, performed work expertly, at a very reasonable cost. Tom is the go to man for roofing needs, and I am recommending Lyons Contracting to all my friends! Thanks, Tom!

Tom came to assess the situation with a roof leak the same day I called and his workers were there the following day to fix it. Very impressed with their service and work and would highly recommend.

Update from 2020: Tom could not have been more wonderful -- he came right out and fixed our problem. Each interaction we have had with Lyon's in the multiple times we've called over the years, they have been fantastic. Can't recommend them more highly!
2018: Good work, speedy job, reasonable price, nice guy! As hard as it is in NOVA to get good contractors who are interested in getting your job done quickly and at a good value - folks like Tom at Lyons really stand out in a good way. Definitely recommend.

I called Lyon asking for an assessment of the health of my flat roof. I recently purchased the home and felt the inspection was incomplete and I wanted to know more about my roof, including how long it would last and how much it would cost to replace. Tom came out the next day and did a walking inspection. He explained in detail what kind of roof I had, the problems with the initial install, the likely remaining life of the roof, and where and what kind of problems I was likely to encounter. He identified a couple of issues that needed to be addressed and fixed them on the spot free of charge. I haven’t yet encountered any serious roof issues but when I do, Lyon will be my only call. I highly recommend.
Update: I used Lyon to replace my badly deteriorated roof. The team did exceptional and clean work. Tom is a very friendly no-nonsense contractor -very easy to deal with. He returns calls and texts promptly, which is not the norm in my experience. Look no further.

Lyons installed my roof in 2015, and it was a great experience! I've had no trouble since. Tom was especially nice to come over and put a patch on the roof while I was in the queue for replacement, because there was a big storm coming and I was afraid of more water damage in my house. Two years after the initial installation, Tom came back to install a vent for a bathroom fan. He is kind, knowledgeable, efficient, and very responsive! I highly recommend for any homeowner, but they seemed especially experienced with the flat, rubber-membrane roofs that are so common in Alexandria. Thanks, Tom & Lyons Contracting!
2022 UPDATE: My neighbor replaced his upper roof and we went in on replacing our shared porch roof. Everything went seamlessly, from the estimate to the installation. I learned today that Tom has employed the same 10 people for 16 years--which says a lot if you're concerned about how the contractors you hire treat their employees. They worked really efficiently and left both yards spotless. I remain very impressed by Lyons Contracting!

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.
Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.
When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.
Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
