Big shout out !

I called few roofing companies about a leak in the roof. These guys respond imminently . Within an hour a technician call me back and was on his way to me. Cody came over, very nice guy , climbed up, fixed the roof, explain the problem and took some photos. Defiantly a contact to keep. Highly recommended.

Would definitely use again

Had a leak at our rental property from a poorly done job by another contractor that caused extensive interior damage. Tony came right away and repaired it. I then had him redo the flat roof when the weather got better. We buy properties all the time and would definitely use him again.

High pressure sales in emergency situation - avoid

Update; Since posting this Tony from Taves roofing reached out and was very apologetic and sincere. He explained that he didn't realize that this had happened and offered to personally come by to give us help with anything we needed. He's offered to refund the money and come by to correct any issues from the original techs sloppy work. He's also offered a free gutter cleaning to make up for the trouble. It was very kind of him so I agreed to update this review to reflect this. We'll likely give him an opportunity to correct this experience in the coming weeks when we are available.

---

After a few nights of below freezing this winter I had a leak coming from an internal gutter drain joint that was on the overhang of my flat roof. The leak was draining into our house aggressively. At the time I didn’t know the source of the leak so I called Taves for an emergency repair as the rains were forecasted to continue to be heavy for a few days and the volume of water leaking into my house was substantial. The person they sent out took one look, tried to peel up our tar paper and then tried to convince me I would have to replace all of our gutters and our flat roof for a single leak within the joint of the flat drain pipe. I told him it was likely just the joint and asked him to try to repair it. He said all he could do was put down cement around the flat roof gutter to keep water from going into the gutter - I let him try this but within 30 seconds of him finishing the water was pooling over his half built circle dam and I gave up on any hope that he could do anything professionally enough to help me without causing significant damage. I showed him out and asked for a discount since he didn’t really do anything whatsoever and my leak was still happening. He declined but said he’d take $100 off the price of replacing our entire roof. Clearly this is a high pressure sales technique he has been taught by his employer. I told him no, paid him his $250 and went to work removing his concrete which was now all over my roof. Once I finished cleaning up his mess I then began fixing the drain myself. After about an hour, I was drenched from the rain but I had reconnected the joint, tightened the fasteners and the leak was fixed, easy as that. In retrospect I should have told him I wasn’t paying a dime. I’m actually quite offended by the level of service and this companies technique of using emergency situations as a high pressure sales opportunity. I will never do business with them again.

Replacement of roof

We hired Taves to replace our 30 year old cedar shake roof with a modern high quality asphalt shingle roof. Their workers were easy to get along with as well as being thorough and conscientious. They kept the property tidy during the work period and cleaned up at the end. They did a very professional job on our roof and we were very satisfied with the end product.

New Roof

We are leasing a home that developed a leaky roof so the owners asked me to find a company to handle it. I contacted several companies and the owners and I easily decided on Taves. Tony had arrived quickly to give us a quote on roof replacement, and upon quote approval the job was done the following week. The owners and I were very happy with his prompt attention, especially since it was a smaller job at a very busy time. Tony was responsive, answered all of my questions, and his pricing was very fair. His crew was also great - professional and respectful. I have every confidence that Tony is a true expert in his field and as such I would be happy to recommend Taves for anyone's roofing needs.

Roof replacement

I had to have my old roof replaced as well as some plywood replaced and a better roof venting system installed. The price was comparable to other quotes but they provided a warranty on the installation as well as the shingles this was the main reason I used them.

Leaky roof

Roof was leaking after our terrible winter. I have used Taves Roofing in the past and was happy with their work so no hesitation in calling them again. Tony came and fixed the problem. Reliable and gets the job done at a great price. Tony does go above and beyond what's required. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for roofing work.
