Summit Roofing Corp

Trying to get a small roof project done and was excited when Matt and Summit Rooking were recommended to us. It started out normal enough. Matt came out, looked at the job, wrote a work order and I signed it. When the time came to do the work it was slightly drizzling but a guy (Manuel) and his “helper” were there. I was outside in my raincoat going “Yeah, unfortunately you can’t work today”. Manuel said (in incoherent English) “You don’t know. If it lightens up and is only a drizzle I can get up there”. I’m thinking that I don’t want this guy up on a two story roof in the rain.

Manuel got out of the van and looked at the house. He goes “Oh, I don’t have the big ladder”. I was “What? Matt was here and didn’t tell you what size ladder to bring”? Oh well, they can’t work today anyway. So, when they come back Manuel will bring “the big ladder”... I hope. Manuel starts walking around the house as if he is seeing how he can get up on the roof. First he looks at a lower roof (porch covering). Manuel tells me that maybe he can climb up onto the porch roof, pull up the ladder, set it up on the porch roof and then climb up onto the main roof. I look at him like he is crazy. First the porch roof is more like a small overhang (not very wide) so the ladder would be at a very steep angle and then he would be trying to get onto the main roof from the ridge side of the roof (the angled side of the roof vs the flat side that you normally go up from the ground... if he had the “big ladder”. I looked at Manuel like he had 3 heads and said “Nope, not going to happen”.

I texted Matt and told him about what just happened and how Manuel was going to try circus show attempts to get onto the wet roof while it was still raining. He replied "Manuel has been with us for 5 yrs. He is a pro”. 5 years? I know teenagers that have more than 5 years of roofing experience.

So, Manuel comes back later in the week with the “big ladder”. I give him the pre-assembled pvc pipe assembly (2” pipe with a roof flange already with the pipe inserted). All Manuel had to do is cut a hole in the roof, cut a rough opening in the drywall, insert the pipe n flange and mail/seal the flange. Easy peasy!

I go to do some stuff in the garage while he works. About half an hour later I hear the ladder come down. I start to walk up front grabbing the cash payment and some cash to tip Manuel and his helper. By the time I got up front they had the ladder on the van and about to pull away (seemed like they were in a hurry). I gave them the payment and tip (probably more than they were each paid for the hour they were there). I asked for a receipt but Manuel said he doesn’t do receipts that Matt would send it to me. Fine, whatever. I’m just happy to have to job done.

I go up to the attic to look at the pipe. To my complete surprise I see the drywall and insulation exploded inward with the pipe hanging there like it was a middle that crashed through my roof. I texted Matt at Summit roofing roof. He was “Oh wow. I’ll ask Manuel and get back to you”. Later in the day Matt texts me and says “Yeah, after Manuel cut the hole in the roof the pipe wouldn’t go in so he punched it through”. I was “What? He just PUNCHED the pvc pipe through the drywall”? Matt said “We are roofers and the work order was for us to only work outside on the roof”. I was “ If he wasn’t going to cut the drywall then all he had to do was tell me and I would of ran into the attic and cut a rough opening (5 mins max) but nope.

Matt finally said “We will pay for the repair. Just send us the receipt. Matt balked when the receipt was $250 and the roof work was only $170 plus $30 tip. I’m still waiting for this to be resolved!

Summit Roofing sucks!

I'm an HVAC contractor and I was doing an estimate for a chimney liner. I was told that the roof had recently been done and what I saw was the most deliberate sloppy work I've ever seen in 35 years. I was there in the beginning of November after some heavy rain and saw some serious water damage. If the roof was just done, how could there be that kind of water damage from rainfall? I was just back a couple of days ago to do work on a boiler and was asked to take a look at what the homeowner had to do to fix the previously "repaired" roof. As a contractor, I'm disgusted at what I saw and heard about Summit Roofing's work. I would be ashamed if I gave such amateurish service work and Summit should be too.

The work was done in a timely manner. They cleaned up after they were done. You would not know that they were even there. We have used before and would use again. I highly recommend this company.

We had an emergency repair due to an ice storm. Summit came immediately that morning and patched roof. By the weekend weather was better and repair was done. The roofer did a great job. You can’t tell that there was once a hole in our roof. I highly recommend this company. They are very reasonable also.

I was able to call for a quote and estimate and they were very prompt. I felt a quick and honest experience. They were able to schedule a roof replacement and very professional service. The guys did a great job and very clean and respectful to the neighbors. I would highly recommend to anyone.

The crew that came out to replace my roof was professional, courteous, and efficient. They arrived on time and started work immediately and cleaned up afterward. When some months later I asked for someone to come back for a follow up, I was promised by the owner someone would stop by soon. Within a few days the same crew stopped by and again showed the same professionalism and courteous efficiency to address what I needed to have looked at. I was and am very pleased with the work that was done, and I highly recommend Summit Roofing Corp.

Had them install new shingle roof with GAF products this spring. They did a great job and were very neat and worked hard. i got all the bells and whistles that were needed and paid just the deductible. We have the nicest looking roof in the area.

Great job with an outstanding clean up following completion. The whole process was a pleasure and would highly recommend them to anyone needing roofing.

Professionals and excellent to meeting customers satisfaction. Attention to details, excellent in communication and following up. Scott, Giodarno and Bill have been amazing and have helped us understand what all isinvolved with the work they’re committed to finish.

Our roof was open to the weather after a severe wind storm. I called over six roofing companies, but none would come out for close to a week.
I then found Summit Roofing, spoke with Scott, and he came out that same day.
His crews repaired the damage that afternoon.
About a year later, our roof was again damaged by another severe storm.
I called Summit, got a great price, and had them install a totally new roof.
They completed the job in one day.
No mess, no bother.
He crews respected our property and our neighbors.
Summit is the best, and Scott is a man of his word. That is rare today.

If you need a new roof, you need Summit Roofing. A very professional experience from picking out shingle options to the clean up after the install. Except for having the best looking roof on the block, you'd never know they were here, they cleaned everything and left no trace of the debris that was removed. I highly recommend them!

We initially got 3 estimates for a complete tear-off and replacement of our single family home roof, and Summit's price was in the middle. I was leaning toward the highest estimate we received until my wife searched customer reviews and found out the higher priced company had a number of poor reviews, so we ended up going with Summit...and I'm pleased that we did. Their work was top-notch and their knowledge and advice was extremely valuable. We did have an initial minor setback and I was impressed that the owner quickly stepped in, corrected the issue, and assured me that things would go smoothly...and they did. The crew finished our roof in a day and did a complete and thorough clean-up to the point where you can hardly tell it was a work area. Had one very very minor issue with matching caulk with the roof roofing, and they came out and quickly fixed it. I don't mind paying for quality products, work and customer service, and Summit provided all three. I would highly recommend them.
