The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

I was originally referred to Excel by a friend of mine who had been pleased with the job that they had done. I found dealing with Alex to be easy and was happy with how he outlined the various product options. He answered all of our questions quickly and was always available. While the crew was working, I found them to be very professional. They did a great job on my house and I'm very happy with how clean my property was afterwards.

I first heard about Excel Roofing from a friend of mine who had been very pleased with the work that they had done. I found that they were easy to get in contact with and prompt about scheduling meetings around my availability. I am happy with how my roof looks now and have not run into any issues. I was also pleased to see that my property was cleaned well before the crew left each day. I would most definitely recommend them in the future.

I saw the Excel signs on a lot of lawns in the neighbourhood and decided to speak with a neighbour who turned out to be very happy with the work that they had done. I found the owner was a pleasure to deal with and was incredibly easy to get a hold of. The crew was cheerful and friendly while they worked. Any questions I had were answered quickly and politely. My roof looks great and the property was left very clean. I have already begun to recommend them to my friends.

I first discovered Excel through one of their mail service adds. I found both the owner and the crew to be very professional to deal with. The job was done swiftly and I am very pleased with the result. I would definitely recommend them!

Roofing

The work was done extremely efficiently and fast, the team was wonderful, price very competitive. The follow-up clean-up was excellent - was hard to imagine that any litter was ever discarded in my back yard.

Thank you very much, Alex!

Roofing

Exel re roofed my home in August 2015. Their work was excellent. The crew was knowledgable, organized, efficient and took obvious pride in their workmanship. Each day after work the site was well cleaned and left tidy. The quote, including materials to be installed was well explained and the price was reasonable. I would give them a strong recommendation.

New roof

Excel did a first-class job of removing the old shingles and installing a new roof on our house in just 2 1/2 days. These young men are experienced, polite, friendly and ready to answer any questions on roofing and related issues. They cleaned up very carefully afterwards. Alex did a final inspection and made minor adjustments as requested. No deposit was required and payment was only required when we were totally satisfied. We were!

Roofing

Beyond the call of duty from the most honest, hard working professional crew I have ever had the luxury of interacting with. I could not express in enough in words how happy I am with the job and the way this group works and the interaction I had.
The dedication to work reminded me of the hard working farmers from the 1930's. They cleaned up the yard each night and greeted me after work with happy smiles with a sense of accomplishment each night.
I only wish I had more projects for them because I thoroughly enjoyed having them around. My career involves dealing with vendors on a daily basis for multi-million dollar projects and this crew exceeded all my expectations and gave extra to ensure they hold a good name.
They kept a positive attitude even when working in 40 degree weather, when all the other crews in the neighborhood quit for the day. I recommend you treat them with the respect they deserve as I can assure you that you will be happy with the final results. I left them a cooler outside each day and they were appreciative of this small jester which compared to the difficult task they had to perform, I wish I could have done more for this crew. I can truly say that I felt they took care of me like any opulent Las Vegas hotel host would.
Regarding honesty I would like to say that I personally witnessed them logging out of their electronic shift tracking system early which is a testament to the type of company and and members you are dealing with.
The cost was about half what other roofers were charging and don't fall into the oh well our shingles are better game. This crew will use whatever shingle manufacture you want and they do not play any up-selling games. Simply if you want a no nonsense no games company to complete your roof, this company is my recommendation. I only wish my experience was longer and hope they expand their business to other projects I can utilize them for. I will stand behind behind this crew over any other in the city and wish them all the success they deserve in the future.

Roof

Excel just completed our roof. The job was done on time and on budget. What impressed us most with Alex and his team is they all strive to go above and beyond. Just meeting the minimum standard is not what Excel is about; they went above and beyond normal roofing practices and our expectations. Also noted was all the workers were very friendly, easy to talk to and each would take the time to explain how the work was proceeding. The last point I would like to make is crew did a complete cleanup after the job was done and they did an excellent job. I would recommend Excel to anyone who wanted a job done well.
