I cannot speak highly enough of Above Roofing. They were fantastic from start to finish. Fair prices, excellent customer service, always available to answer any questions we had. They replaced our roof in less than 2 days and it looks amazing. Their crew showed up on time, they were very respectful and friendly, and with such thorough clean-up you would have never known they were here. I would definitely recommend Above Roofing to any one with roofing needs.

I was pleased with their ability to do the work in a timely manor. They kept me up-to-date on scheduling and if there were any delays. They also cleaned up quite well outside of a few nails we found in a garden bed. Definitely a top notch company. (Also, realize these guys are busy and cant just pop out immediately to do your roof, but they are worth the wait)

Had them install basically a whole new roof and full insulation as well. Was very pleased with the level of service from all the Above Roofing people, from sales to instillation to billing everything was as easy and painless and the roof looks wonderful as well. Would defiantly recommend them!

We can't say enough good things about Above Roofing. We have had the team back for several different jobs. Most recently to install a new roof and stop water leaks around our chimney. See attached picture. This team is fast and well organized! Quality work and quality people that are friendly with high integrity from sales (Phil Edwards) to office staff (Ashley Freeman, Bianca Navarro), to follow-up after installation (Jason Rees). We are impressed and very pleased with the outcome of their collaborative team effort! We highly recommend Above Roofing.-------------Fast, friendly, quality service with integrity and reasonable pricing.

Thank you so very much, Above Roofing! The work I needed was completely promptly and professionally. I have a giant breed dog whom was out on the deck with me when the roofer arrived. Both roofer and dog surprised each other! The roofer stood completely still and welcomed my dog’s greeting. All was well after that! Thank you again. Above Roofing has a great team!

I had another roofing company replace our roof and their work was defective. Above Roofing repaired the defective work and stopped the leaks. They were timely, efficient and economical. I wish that I had them replace the roof and I would not have had to have them repair the work of the other roofing company.

My father in law is on the board of a local condo project that hired Above Roof to redo their condo projects roofs. He recommended them highly. So we talked to them and one other. It was obvious in terms of punctuality, professionalism, thoroughness and confidence in what they know and what they do that these were the guys we wanted to deal with.The weather delayed schedules a little but they did a great job keeping us informed so we never felt like we had gotten "left behind." We have kind of a unique driveway and they made certain that the way their vehicles were parked didn't cause problems for us to get in and out. When the guys were onsite, they were friendly, took their time to make sure we knew what was going on and what they were finding (since it was a repair) and everything went well. They cleaned up great and left with a clean property, a handshake and a smile. There was only one extremely minor thing that didn't go as planned. My recollection is that the week before, they left a message that said they would call either Friday or Monday to confirm which "half day" of that week they would be here. Monday, I didn't hear from them. Tuesday morning, I was just thinking I should give them a call and find out when I could expect them. 5 minutes later, they pulled in the driveway. That is the only place that things didn't go better than expected. If I could, I would give them a 4.8 or 4.9 but that one thing is definitely not important enough to knock it down to a 4. I would definitely use them again and I highly recommend them.TJV

Erich came out and gave us a very fair quote on a repair when all other companies would only do a complete tear off and replacement for a roof that is only 8 years old. The team came out and completed the repair with out us really noticing they were there. They did an amazing job matching the shingles! I will use them again for any of our needs in the future!

They fixed my roof for a fair price. They were professional and curtious all around! I will call them back for any further repairs and hopefully a entire new roof someday!

Above Roofing started with a question; "what is most important to you in this project", and my wife's reply was to understand every step of the process. After Jerry assessed the damages and current state of our roof he answered each question and provided a competitive quote. Above Roofing communicated throughout the project, was consistently on time and professional. A Great Team!

Would recommend Above Roofing to anyone with exterior roof or interior attic needs! Erich stuck with us for months as we decided exactly how to best address a roof leak that created an unexpected ceiling collapse in our living room. Not only was he kind, courteous and professional, he also took the time to get to know us and made sure we felt comfortable and could trust him and his crew. When the time came for our repairs, they were in and out in far less time than I anticipated, and even went above and beyond what I expected as far as clean-up afterward. They were sure to go over with me in detail what work had been performed, and never talked down to me or glossed over any questions I had. Can't thank them enough for taking a stressful situation and solving it for us (at an extremely competitive price, as well)!

My husband and I purchased a home in Jenison, MI this summer which needed a small roof repair done. The Above Roofing Team was easy to work with and provided a significantly lower quote than the competitors. Their guys cleaned up after themselves and left us feeling relieved to have the work done before winter.

We noticed some water damage on our ceiling and suspected a roof leak. I contacted Above Roofing and they were able to send out their estimator (Phil) that same day. Phil got up in the attic and on the roof and took pictures of what needed fixing so he could show me. He then got me on the schedule and the work was completed within the next two weeks. This was amazing because this was during a time of heavy rain and storms so they were quite busy. I did not think that I would be able to have the problem addressed this quickly and appreciate their response time.
James Mueller
20:44 05 Nov 19
Needed 4 boots replaced on my roof to stop some water dripping down to my basement. I was able to have someone take a look and get a quote the same day. Repair happened in the timeline that was given when I signed the quote and the issue is fixed. I was told I have another 2-3 years on my roof so when it’s time to replace, I’ll be giving Above Roofing the call.

My experience with Above Roofing was very pleasant from the beginning. Phil, the first one I met from Above Roofing, was very helpful and made the whole process of deciding what to do about roofing my house much easier. Everything was done just as he said it would be. There were no surprises.Benjamin and his crew were on the job first thing in the morning and caused no disruption to my day.They were all very professional and completed the job faster than I thought.You can see Benjamin enjoys what he does by the way he works with his crew, his commitment to the job, and the results he achieves.They left the job site spotless. You would hardly know they had even been there except for my new roof.I would gladly recommend Above Roofing to anyone who needs any type of roofing done in a professional and competent manner.Terrence Dunn

Really good experience with Above Roofing. Their bid was competitive, they were pro-active in communicating with me as to when they could do the work given the changing weather, and they showed up on time, worked hard, and even went the extra mile by coming back the next morning to assure that a second coat of sealant was applied to our flat roof. Can recommend them for sure.
Ed Rock

GREAT JOB. The new roof looks great. Due to their small portable container there was no mess or damage to my yard. Everyone from the company that I was in contact with was knowledgeable and very friendly.

We had issues with our ceiling in one of our bedrooms, leaking after days of significant rain. This was on a Thursday evening. I called Above Roofing Friday morning and spoke to Bianca, she was very helpful. She let me know that Robert was able to swing by that same night and take a look at our problem. He was very thorough, checking out the attic space above the bedroom and spent some time on the roof, taking pics and was able to determine the cause of the leak. He emailed a quote the following morning and said he could fit us in within the next week or two. Our repair was done just over a week later, within a few hours. Everyone I interacted with was very pleasant and professional! I appreciate Robert being honest and upfront with the damage and what the repair would entail. I would highly recommend Above Roofing!

We had tree damage to our roof - which had been replaced six years earlier by Above Roofing. We called for an estimate and their response was just like our earlier experience - responsive, professional, and friendly. When the crew came to do the repair they worked quickly and were pleasant to interact with. The result was perfect - can't tell where the damage was. I'd call them again without hesitation.

From the quote to the actual repair, my wife and I have a great experience. Erich was very informative and able to answer any of our questions concerning the leak we had. The actual repair of the roof matches the existing shingles almost perfectly, and was completed in a day with zero scrape or waste left behind.In the future when we need a new roof, we will definitely come back to Above Roofing.

I would highly recommend Above Roofing for any roofing needs. A few weeks back I had a couple leaks in my roof and Erich came over to see what was going on. Erich was very professional and on time, after his inspection he recommended that I try some minor fixes on my own. I was able to fix what he recommended and it fixed my leak, Erich saved me from filing a claim and paying my deductible. Thank you for professional/honest help!

We were quoted for a new roof two years ago and they said we DIDN'T need a new roof and that a competitor was lying to us saying as needed a $20,000 roof. We called them back to fix a leak just recently and they went above and beyond. Our roofer called when he arrived and was very courteous and noticed some extra small stuff that he fixed at no extra charge than what was originally agreed on to "surprise us". I would recommend this company to anyone as they are honest and upfront through the entire process. They care more about customer service than getting a huge sale and that is the true secret to a successful business. Thank you again!

We used Above Roofing for a full roof replacement and they did a fantastic job. The work was top notch, everyone on their team was friendly and helpful, and the price was very fair. We got a few estimates before proceeding with Above and other companies had quoted us double what Above did for the same type/color of shingles but with half of the warranty offered by Above. Above was able to get the job completed in a day and a half and they did excellent with cleanup. Every single person we worked with always had a smile on their face and were eager to answer any questions we had. I would highly recommend Above Roofing - they were a pleasure to work with and did a wonderful job!

David came out to look at my gutter system. He suggested that I didn't need a new gutter system and sent me a detailed report with pictures on some fixes that I need to have done to keep my gutter system working properly. He did not charge me for this service even though he took the time out of his schedule to look at my gutter system and write and send the report with pictures. I will definitely call them first when I need a new roof or gutters!

Above Roofing does such a good job. They put a new roof on a few years ago, three years ago they put new windows and siding on. I needed some work done around my chimney. They came out and put a sealant on the brick and new flashing around the chimney. They do excellent work. They clean up as they go. They are friendly and professional. I have recommended to several of my friends. They also have been pleased with their work as well.

Just had Above Roofing install a Sun Tunnel skylight and a new ridge vent. From the time the job was quoted to the point of completion, they were very knowledgeable, friendly, considerate, and professional. They took the time to explain what they were doing, to work with me on placement, and to provide the product details I needed. They minimized the mess by laying down tarps and cleaning up afterward. Oh, and they completed the job an hour before lunch. Two thumbs up.

We have a 100 year-old home that has a balcony off an upstairs bedroom. Under the Wolmanized wood flooring, was the original tin roof and there was a leak into the half bath and breakfast nook below. Of 6 roofing companies that advertise doing residential flat roofs, 3 didn't even return my voice mail, 2 said they'd have to check with the boss because it was a small job, then never called back, and Above Roofing came the next day to do a bid. Because we didn't get multiple bids, I can't comment on the cost, but we have been so impressed with the professionalism, communication, education, and timely completion of the job. While on vacation, we received a courtesy call that they were at our home putting a temporary fix on the roof to prevent further water damage until they could complete the job. The job was completed within two weeks. One important thing to note is that their roofers are not subcontracted, they are valued employees of the company. Everyone is background checked and drug tested. A totally impressive company.

I appreciate good service however when I am the beneficiary of OUTSTANDING SERVICE from all four Above Roofing team members (I say team and not employees because employees do a job team members support each other to be sure the customer is satisfied) the team I experienced from Ashley the welcoming-friendly and kind first contact, to Erich the excellent estimator who was thorough, friendly patient and acrobatic in crawling through my attic, then Courtney another gentle, friendly caring voice and ending with Jason, the Michael Angelo of Roofing truly amazing work. I cannot even tell there was a repair and l have a 15 year old roof amazing job and Jason could not have been nicer which seems to be a wonderful theme for Above Roofing teammates. So I want to thank all four of you for making what could have been an unpleasant painful repair a wonderful experience and I thank you for not only what you have done but how you do it. I would and will recommend Above Roofing to anyone I know that has a Roofing need. You all are great people and yes I can say that because you made this experience feel like I was dealing with friends not a business. Thank youJohn Pettit

We obtained 3 quotes for a new roof. We appreciated that Above did the most thorough estimate—took pictures, crawled through attic space, and then sat down to review the pictures. The cost was comparable to the other estimates we received.
