I need a new roof for my house. I would like some one who is on the bbb that is insured and all that good stuff. Ive had a few people come over for price quote and what not but they were shady and just feeding me lines of bullshit. I want some one who will do my roof the right way the first time, not do short cuts and knows what they are doing. Make suggestions of a good roofer. Thanks.

I had a friend of mine do mine, it was done 2 years ago and I’ve had no issues, but he did it as a side job… so I dont know if you’d be interested.

alright thanks guys any more suggestions are welcomed. its just really hard to pick some one because i dont know who i can trust. my biggest fear is having some half ass job and my roof leaking a few weaks later and having to pay more bucks to get it fixed. seriously roofs are the hardest thing to buy because you dont know who you are dealing with.

Roofing is great.
I am almost finished with mine.
~14 squares cost me ~2k for materials.
Its really, not great. In fact I hate it.
But I hate spending money for manual labor more.
What kind of roof is it?
One of those East Amherst roofs with 14 little roofs on one house?

Tri-Town Construction did mine; price was in the middle of my quotes, but seemed like a standup guy. Lots of issues arose and although it did cost more in the end; he didn’t rape me for the issues.
