FINANCING NOW AVAILABLE
I have always been OCD about the quality of my work and everyone that works for me knows that every job is to be treated as if it were our own home. One advantage that I have over most other exterior contractors and roofing companies is that I was a custom home framer for 15 years so I'm familiar with home construction from the ground up. We also pride ourselves on communication, so no more calling someone who feels their voicemail is good enough for you. I also have the greatest respect for our military community but unfortunately we don't offer any discounts because I price every single project as low as possible from the beginning. I am asked a lot if we have any discounts for seniors or military personnel but rather than pad a job with extra money to be able to go back later and pretend as though I'm offering a discount, to me just seems dishonest. I price every project as low as possible regardless of age, status, nationality, color, creed, religious belief, it makes no difference because we want each and every customer to know we will do our very best to give you the best possible price we can. I'm personally involved with every project. I will be on the job numerous times and I personally police the grounds when we're finished to make sure the clean up is as pristine as it can be. If you decide to hire me, I guarantee a pristine roof, trim wrap, siding job or new gutters, whatever your construction needs are.
The sense of accomplishment of a completed project has always been gratifying but I also enjoy the networking that comes with a new client. Payment for a completed job is the main goal for most, but I've always considered myself a " big picture" kind of guy, so the knowledge that I have access to someone's friends, family members, coworkers,etc. once we've completed another quality project is great. And not just because those people may need work as well, but because I've met so many people over the years that have also offered a service or had something to bring to the table.

Ricky was absolutely amazing! He was responsive, professional, and really quick to squeeze me in during a pretty tight timeframe. I would recommend him to anyone needing roof repair or installation.

Hi Kevin, hey I appreciate the work and I appreciate your commitment to doing the right thing in replacing the sheathing. You would be surprised how many people are resistant to doing that but it's just one of those things that needs to be done. It was great working with you

Ricky was very professional, punctual, responsive, knowledgeable, and fair. He gave us a fair estimate and good recommendations on options without trying to up sell something. He explained things in depth with patience and delivered a new roof as promised. We are very happy with the quality of work as well as the very thorough and conscientious cleanup. The price was also fair. Overall, it was a painless experience without the usual frustrations associated with home repairs and contractors. Ricky has his process down and we are very pleased with the results.

Thanks to Ricky Shakallis and his crew, our roof looks outstanding. We found him to be very knowledgeable, flexible and honest. We didn't have to put any money down which was a plus compared to other roofing companies. He came out and gave us a quote within two days and worked around our schedules. Within a week we had everything set to get our roof done. His crew worked very hard and got the job done in a timely manner. By the time they left, everything was cleaned up and looked great. We are very pleased with the experience and will definitely do business with Ricky again.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
No, every job is unique but I was raised by hard working, blue collar parents so I almost never hear that my pricing is high.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always like to meet the customer face to face so they get a sense of who we are and always let them know that no deposits or upfront money is required. We figure the pricing of that particular project with no hidden fees or contingencies that pop up later and we just try to really let the customer know that there's nothing hidden about what we do, we are an open book.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Other than staying in the loop with product and installation I'm not big on classes. We do our homework if we do get involved with a new product. But we also encourage our customers not to be guinea pigs when it comes to new products. We've seen so many products come out over the years and within a couple years be discontinued for mold, structural integrity, finish, etc.
