Do your homework people and look him up first. Wavy TV did a story about the Thomas family who he stole $180,000 from. He did not pay his contractors and they walked off the job. Left the Thomas family without a home for over 3 years. During the time they were without a home they lost their 42 year old son to Covid then Mrs. Thomas broke her elbow and had to have surgery, and then this April Mr. Thomas passed away and never got to live in his house again. The pain and suffering he caused this family is unreal.

Job (front porch construction/addition) was not completed in accordance with original plans to include deck measurements and electrical/lighting installation.
Company expected me, the home owner, to be present for and explain to city planners construction work.
I, the homeowner, had to pay an outside entity to provide engineering certification to the city.
We lost over 15k, plenty of time, and bore a lot of stress over this project (“completed” in 2021).

Do not use this company. Their license has been revoked by the Virginia DPOR in March of 2022 (Department of professional and occupational Regulations) due to violations. At this point any work done by the company or the owner is being done without a license therefore in violation. Look up the license # at dpor.virginia.gov. for additional details. Also, numerous cases in the VA court system for both Virginia Beach and Chesapeake going back to 2013 (vacourts.gov). Do your research and be sure to check these and other sites with the company name and the owners name before making a decision. You may be surprised at what you find in public records alone.

Glen was nothing but a pro! We had a fire in our kitchen, while in the process of selling our house which brought everything to a screeching halt. We needed to replace the cabinets, flooring, backsplash, repair drywall and paint, basically a whole new kitchen! Glen and his team were very professional, good at communicating what needed to be done and when, how much things would cost and where to source the materials that we needed during this challenging time where everything is out of stock and takes a while to come in. He even put some other projects he had on hold to help us get our kitchen completed quickly so we could finish closing on our house! His work was high quality and we were very happy with the results and how available he was to answer any and all of our questions.

Glen’s company, Regal Renos is the only general contractor that we will be using in the future! Very thankful for how personable and professional he was. Highly recommended!!

Glen and his team replaced the roof on my house after two windy hurricane left-overs ripped of several shingles. He was transparent in the cost and fought for me with my insurance company to cover the cost of replacing the skylights rather than leaving the old ones in. I signed with him prior to COVID shutting down everything. He kept me in the loop the whole time, calling or emailing to let me know the vendors were not making materials. He frequently came out to check the status of my roof to make sure it wouldn't leak while he was waiting for his vendors. Once the vendor opened services again it took less than a week to have the materials placed at my house, and they started work about a week later (once it stopped raining). The guys were courteous and professional. They even moved off the roof for a few minutes so we could let our dogs go outside. I will be using Glen and his company again for repairs to my sunroom!

Mr. Glen Sweitzer Jr. Is not a man of his word and
Regal Renovations are owned by liars.

The Design (phase one) that was performed by Regal was terrible. The picture shown individually did not match the pictures when the total picture was shown. Apparently software that didn’t work correctly.
When time came for phase 2, we signed up for phase 2 and we’re told we could cancel and would be refunded our money by Regal immediately. Glen gave a song and dance about companies needing 30 days for refunds. VA STATE law says your money should be returned immediately. With no work started, even after 30 days the amount was not returned. $6,500.00.

Here is a text message from Glen Sweitzer:

(

Tim,

As I also mentioned, I will do the best I can as I have all along. I have had a few tough situations that have
arisen that have taken my focus and attention. You still will definitely get your money back and I’m sorry I haven’t sent it yet. We will send it as soon as possible. It’s a top priority for me. I apologize for the impacts this has on you. Thank you so much for your patience.

Respectfully,

Glen Sweitzer, Jr.
President
Regal Renovations, LLC. )

Well, Glen, it’s been over a year!

Stay away from Regal and especially Mr. Glen Sweitzer Jr. There are many other companies that will stand behind their work to ensure satisfaction. Mr. Glen Sweitzer Jr. can talk the talk, but did not deliver on my project. I'm waiting to have issues noted on the final punch list corrected one and a half years after Mr. Glen Sweitzer (Regal) was paid in full.

Regal did a terrific job completely rebuilding two bathrooms in our home. The workmanship was excellent, especially the tile work, and the employees were very conscientious and respectful. This was a great experience.

Glen and his team were a joy to work with. Even though our particular job was rather small and other companies had made us feel like we were on the back burner, Regal got our project done in a timely and professional manner. Nate did a wonderful job and showed superb knowledge and dedication to getting it done right.

They will be our first call for all of our future projects!

Fantastic experience from beginning to end. Regal did an amazing job renovating our master bath and kitchen. Glen was a genuine professional...easy to communicate with, fair and responsive. Glen's staff were always polite and clean. They treated our home and family with respect. They went above and beyond to keep the home clean during the reno and cleaned up every night before leaving. Their craftsmanship was exceptional. They turned our house into a home. Highly recommended and we will use them again for our next project.

Recently had my courtyard renovated, with new concrete, a legit fence, removed two old tree stumps, and fixed my balcony, with 6x6 post that are standing on concrete footers and notched into the balcony at the top. Which now is up to code...ironically enough none of this was done by Regal Renovations. In fact,
I originally called Glen at Regal with my request, Glen has worked on my house before, his crew do great work, and they get the job done! They’re not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for. As I have found out the hard way like so many other here in Hampton Rds. Regal Renovations, has been a great experience for me, but they could not meet my time line. So, instead Glen referred me to his farther Glen Sr. this worked out wonderful.
Glen Sr. and his crew came out in two weeks and started the demo. In this time we discovered that my sewer line had been leaking, and created a sinkhole, explaining the roots in my sewer line, and the old concrete popping and shifting. We also, discovered that, whoever ran electric to the shed, did so, without any grounding, also used a corrosive pipe that was completely rusted away. Glen Sr. told me that I needed to get a hold of VA Beach utilities, and that he would get an electrician out to fix the electrical issue. Needless to say Glen Sr. is very resourceful, his men do great work, and the experience was pleasant. The greatest thing about this whole experience is, I no longer need to look any further for my contractors, thanks to Glen.

Your forever customer,

The Higgins

Regal Renovations were God sent when I had a project gone bad. They efficiently completed my kitchen renovation in two weeks, after having spent a month of waiting with the other contractor. The team fixed all the mistakes made by the prior contractor and finished every detail up to my specifications. They are trustworthy and top of the line professionals, highly recommended! I still call them for any and all my projects big or small!

Thanks, Glen!!

I had a great experience with Regal Renovations. Had the entire side of my house re-sided. I had them replace the dry rotted builder grade fiber board with new OSB board and waterproof that side as well. The builders didn't waterproof it. Regal gave us a very fair price for the enormous amount of work they performed. They weren't the lowest price, but Glenn did a very good job explaining the whole process to me and building rapport.

Regal did an excellent, professional job. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of outside house repair, roofing, or even inside remodeling! We will definitely be using them again in the future.

Thank you very much Regal Renovations!

Regal Renovations completely replaced our vinyl siding and all of the gutters and soffit. They did an outstanding job! I highly recommend them for any home renovation you might be interested in. Not only was the work performed in a timely manner, the workmanship was excellent. We will most definitely use them in the future. You will not be disappointed.

From the beginning to the end of our home renovation project, this company went the extra mile to meet our needs and exceed our expectations. We are not from this area & we didn't know what to expect when we started interviewing contractors. By far, Regal Renovations were the most thorough, down-to-earth & knowledgeable contractors we met. That's why we chose them. We are "particular" by nature & more than likely we drove them a little nuts with all of our repetitive questions & budget mongering ;) But this home purchase & renovation is the largest investment we have ever made (and will likely ever make) in our lives. Glen & Jason understood this & valued our concerns. We wanted details & explanations for every dollar spent along the way & Regal Renovations never left us in the dark the entire time. They worked within our budget, kept my husband & I informed throughout the process & made sure we got the most 'bang for our buck' on projects both inside & outside of the house. It was easy for us to put our trust in them because they were forthright & transparent from the beginning. We absolutely adore our forever home. Thank you Regal Renovations... Highly recommend!

Glen and his team did a great job fixing a leak on our roof. He was professional, responsive and timely. He stood by his work and provided us with quality work at a fair price.

Glen and his team restored the beauty of our home by replacing siding after a strong storm hit. It was so sad to see our house in that condition especially since we just bought our first new home. Agape Business Group really did a wonderful job! They were even able to perfectly match the color and it looked like nothing ever happened. My wife and I HIGHLY recommend Agape Business Group and we will be using them for future projects and additions. Thank you again Glen!!!

4. What is the typical roof leak repair cost, and how is it calculated?

Service questions

It's not necessary to stay home during roof replacement. Roofing work is noisy and can cause vibrations inside the house, which might be uncomfortable. Most homeowners choose to leave during major parts of the project, but our team ensures safety and keeps you updated, whether you're home or not.

2. How long does roof replacement take?
+-

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

3. How to hire a roofing contractor?
+-

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.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

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.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

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.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

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.
