Very positive experience with this company. They came out for an estimate on our leaking roof within 3 days, very pleasant staff, reasonable rates half what the independent roofer we had also had an estimate from had quoted us. Very professional, clear communication and contracts, they came on a day we were at work and cleanup was so good that we couldn't even tell they had been there except for looking at the roof! Would definitely recommend, and we are in the process of having them replace the roof on our barn given our good experience.Review from JoAnn M

Had a roof stripped and a new roof put on took 4 day for my small ranch where other roofers said 2 days to do the job, and they didn't do the work they subbed it out, had 2 skylights removed, well apparently the didn't use the right thickness of plywood because I have a dip were the skylights were, and as for the ice shield my overhang on the roof is 2 ft so basically I only have 2 ft on my house, they should have taken that into account and should have used 6 - 8 ft of ********* on the house, they are corner cutters, I'm sorry I went with them, I would never recommend them to anyone, stay away from this company.Review from Kenneth L

This is an update: I hired them to do an apartment building roof a few years ago. They'd come highly recommended so we were surprised with the mess they left behind, as well as only completing 60% or so of the work they agreed on. There was shingle package paper hanging from a tree that we weren't able to retrieve, which hung there for a year. My request was simple: Please give me an estimate for everything that needs to be done NOW and that will need to be done within the next 3-4 years. They gave me a price which I agreed on. Unfortunately, after getting a view of the roof from another contractor that had to do some work up there it was revealed that they left quite a bit of roof. (30% or more). I assume they ran out of time or ran over budget and decided that because it was three stories and I would never have an opportunity to see the work, they could get away with leaving a lot of the work undone. Furthermore, it's taken me nearly two years to get a meaningful response out of them. The owner or manager simply gave me an estimate to finish. No apologies, no explanation for why they promised one thing and delivered about half of it. They are quite obviously not an ethical organization. I've been in the real estate business for nearly two decades, having dealt with forty or more contractors and this ranks as the most dissatisfactory consumer experiences I've had to date.Follow-up: June 2023. We are about to sell the building and the inspector sent a ******** to look at the roof and sure enough about a third of the roof needs to be completely replaced. Fowler's Roofing is now an official "persona non grata" of ************** Properties and the ****** familyReview from Cullen R

Not a trustworthy company. Quoted 1200 to re flash chimney then tried to change estimate to 2000 after they could not locate a stone Mason. Flashing leaked worse than before after work was carried out. They wanted to tarp chimney instead of apply chimney seal to determine if flashing or pointing was at fault. We are dreading the next Nor’ Easter but have paid them to avoid them charging interest or putting a lean on our property. Do not use FOWLERS, they will talk in circles to avoid responsibility for their work !!!Fowler's Roofing & Construction, LLC. Response

Fowler's Roofing had taken the original call from ****************** requesting a free estimate. At that time he had stated that the chimney was leaking. The chimney had tar along the base. ******** provided a proposal for a new chimney flashing which clearly stated that Fowler's Roofing offers no warranty on miscellaneous work. As we are trying to troubleshoot someone else's work. ******** has several gentleman that can perform new toppings and many ******* that can perform chimney flashings . Once the proposal has been signed we let all of our customers know they will be on a waiting list and it goes in order of rotation by signature date. ******** installed a new lead chimney flashing and sealed the chimney. ******** had recommended a new chimney topping multiple times, as there is cracks in the bricks and mortar missing.Fowler's Roofing & Construction, LLC.

Pleasant and courteous staff. Asphalt roof was stripped and metal roof was installed. Looks really nice. Did a good job of cleaning up. Took them a little longer than expected to start the work. Price estimated was the final price.Review from 7/11/2021 11:04:04 C

We had Fowler's roofing install a metal roof on our home. We had gotten several other estimates which were substantially lower but chose ******** because supposedly they were the best in the area. We wanted a snow guard over our front door - that was described on our paperwork as an 8-foot section - us and any reasonable person would consider that as an eight-foot bar type snow guard - what was put up were nine tiny stops staggered on our new roof - these were not what we wanted or expected and had them taken down - that cost us an extra $150. After the roofing job was done, we had to have them back twice to fix two things that should have been done before they left. Our neighbor had Fowlers do their roof - The Fowler's Roofing sign was put out by the road and the trucks were Fowler's Roofing vehicles - looked like a professional operation. What we got was something entirely different. (In my opinion the crew that showed up was a sub-contractor that Fowlers uses to bang out these smaller jobs). No sign by the road and no company names on any vehicles. (One vehicle leaked oil on our driveway which was just newly sealed last fall), If I wanted a sub-contractor level job, I would have gladly gone with one of the other two companies that we got estimates from instead of paying the top dollar cost of Fowlers. There were several other issues that involved a piece of flashing sticking up and the other having to do with our gutters. (When the ******** job estimator was here at the beginning of the work - I made it pretty clear that it was critical that we keep our gutters and gutter guards - I was assured we could - at the end of the job we discovered we in fact could keep them at a cost of a few dollars shy of $3000.). My advice to anyone considering hiring Fowler's Roofing is to be very clear on exactly what and who you're getting for your money. And finally - carefully inspect their work when the job is done.Review from B. M.

Excellent job on installing a complete metal roof, my old roof had 2 layers of asphalt and 1 layer of cedar shingles, they removed it all and installed a nice new metal roof in no time at all. They even came back and replaced a part on my previous metal roof where they connected just so it would "look" the same as the new one. HIGHLY recommend.Review from Laurel B

****** Roofing did an exceptional job installing a metal roof on our somewhat complicated garage. They stayed late to get the job completed in two days, they were efficient and courteous, and the clean up was superb! I would recommend them highly!Review from Robert H

******** was an amazing company to work with. They came and repaired our roof after a wind storm. What surprised us most was that they were able to fit us into their schedule just before a snow storm. Their estimator was fast, friendly, and had all the answers. We will not hesitate to contact them again in the future.Review from James D
