During the rains earlier in April we noticed a small leak coming down into our bathroom near the vent, so I contacted a water restoration company to come out and dry it out before any further damage was incurred. thankfully it was a small leak and they were able to get it dried out quickly. They recommended Chet's roofing to tarp the roof until the weather changed enough to make repairs. Chet's came out same day, which I was grateful for and tarped the roof.
Unfortunately what they did was tarp a full 25% of the roof, far more than was needed, they didn't ascertain the cause of the leak first, and as a result, they used over 80 anchor screws into my roof for the tarp. This was overkill in the extreme. Once the attic was dry, I had them come out to bid the repair. They quoted me 3600.00 to replace my entire skylight.
I could not imagine that the entire skylight needed to be replaced, so I got another quote. Their competitor came out and actually inspected the cause of the leak and found it to be non galvanized screws the builder used, which is pretty standard, for the skylight, and they had rusted in the bottom edge and that rust had allowed small amounts of water to come in. the repair was to replace the screws. minimum service charge. unfortunately, my roof still had 80 holes in it from the tarp, and all those shingles had to be replaced. so instead of a small repair of around a thousand dollars, it became 2500.00, 1500.00 of which was due to Chet's overkill on tarping. Additionally, when Chet's submitted their bill to the restoration company, they had doubled their bid amount. obviously expecting insurance to cover it without checking. So, I am giving Chet's the score they got, because 1) they tried to scam my wife into agreeing to a repair that was not necessary, 2) because their tarp job caused more damage and cost more money to repair than the leak that brought them out in the first place, and 3) because they tried to upcharge the referring agency in order to pad their bill by double. Do not use this company. there are plenty of more reputable roofing companies to choose from.

My realtor provides names of contractors she's vetted. I've used about 10 of her recommendations and they've all been stellar - and I'm a VERY picky lady. Chet's Roofing was no exception. I was set on putting in a skylight to get more light into my home, so I contacted Chet's Roofing through their website. Linda from Chet's called me within 24 hours, and sent Lucas out w/in a day or two to look at my home. Lucas was running a little late due to traffic.
He called me to let me know that was the case and his estimated arrival time, which I appreciated. Lucas took his time and did a lot of measuring, inspecting, explaining and showing me how/where a skylight could be placed and the ramifications of each option. He discussed roof pitch, architectural styles, placement, lighting angles, the 'tunnel effect, ' and options.
I knew nothing about skylights and he explained and showed me visually how the skylight would look from the interior, how it would function, and all in layman's terms which I could understand. What he said all made good sense. He also explained why he loves working for Chet's and appreciates their business practices. I am blown away at his honesty and transparency.
This guys knowledge base is phenomenal. Lucas emailed a quote to me the next morning. No hard sell, just information. Chet's Roofing is most fortunate to have Lucas on their team. He's a keeper w/a vast knowledge base and a real asset to their company. Thank you Chet's Roofing & Lucas! Oh, and the other 2 contractors I contacted for a quote? I'm still waiting to hear from them. I don't need further quotes, if I go w/a skylight, Chet's Roofing will be installing it.

After getting multiple quotes, I called Chets and Jeff came out and gave me a quote. He was very Professional and knowledgeable. Unlike the other company's I got quotes from he was straight to the point and gave me a quote on the spot, other companies I felt like I was dealing with the a used car salesman, the price he gave was reasonable. Months later I had them come out to do the work. The crew was very nice and did a excellent job everyday cleaning up. My roof and new gutters looks great and I would recommend using them.

I reached out to Chet's for bids on several items. They showed up when promised and gave me quotes timely, never frustrated with how many questions I asked. After a few months of thinking I called them up and had them build my shed and put on a new roof. The shed was done quickly and very professionally and the roof to my home and shed were done in one day.
They took care to cover my windows and plants where the dump truck was parked and cleaned up all the debris including running a magnet over my yard to catch any nails. I highly recommend these guys not only for your roof but any project!

While not the cheapest, these guys are (from start to finish) worth every penny. So far they have done my gutters, fixed my chimney (after another company botched the job) and the wallet willing, they will soon to return to do my roof. Thank you for everything folks. Look forward to doing business with you again.

I could write a book on how pleased I am with Chet's Roof &Construction Co! I had several bids done on my home and Chet's beat them all.in some cases by Three and Four thousand dollars! The Scope of Work was more than a couple of the higher bids that I received! Their professionalism was on display from start to finish! Believe me when I say that I am a very picky person when it comes to stuff like this and I couldn't find fault throughout any of the process!
If you're in the market for a new roof, trust me, look no further than Chet's roofing & Construction! The quality of materials and work performed for the price, was truly remarkable, impeccable, and any other able you could put on there! Thanks Chet's! You're the best! From a very pleased Home Owner!
