Brian Chang says, "Rafael from Simple Roofing was my primary point of contact. As a first-time home-buyer, my insurance required a new roof to maintain coverage, and Rafael guided me through the entire process. He listened to all my concerns, answered every question, and was available 24/7 throughout the project.He also provided examples of previous work and clients, which gave me confidence in his teams abilities. Their pricing was very reasonable compared to other companies.I got quotes from three companies: Simple Roofing, Company B, and Company C. Company B quoted almost double, and Company C insisted on a metal roof.I explained, FOR 3 HOURS, that a metal roof was not in my budget, and Company C then quoted me 3x the price for a regular shingle roof. Both Company B and C were suggesting financing these 2x and 3x priced roofing projects over 1525 years, which I thought was insanefinancing a project over such a long period and paying interest the whole time. Going with Simple Roofing ended up being a no-brainer: I got a fair price that I could finance over a much smaller time period.Rafael carefully reviewed the roof, pointing out areas of concern and suggesting improvements such as better gutter routing for efficiency. Scheduling was easy, and the team completed the work in a single day.Minor points to note: I did find a few nails in my driveway and lawn after the job was completed. To be fair: his team did collect about 99% of the nails and debris. Its important to do your own scan afterward so you dont accidentally drive over nails with your car or run over them with a lawn mower. That said, this is something a homeowner should generally expect to do after any roofing project, so its not a big deal.Another small disappointment was that I did not get the option to keep any extra materials that I paid for. Im not sure if there were any leftover materials or if the estimates were for exact amounts, but if there were any extras, they were taken by the crew. On the positive side, Rafael provided $100 worth of plywood at no extra charge for roof deck replacements, which I did need, so the final cost did not exceed the original estimate. I would assume the extra roof decking supplies were included in the estimate so it wasn't technically free, but he mentioned that if more roof decking was needed, that it would affect the final cost.Rafael also worked closely with me and my financing team to ensure the roof could be financed, guiding me through every step.Your mileage may vary, but from my experience, the process from price quoting to scheduling, talking with financing, and completing the job felt really quick. From start to finish, it was completed much faster than I anticipated.Overall, I highly recommend Simple Roofing. They are trustworthy, local to the Northern NJ area, and professional. My new roof looks pristine, and their work exceeded my expectations. I would recommend them to anyone, whether for a small repair or a full roof replacement."See more
