    The first heavy storm after our roof replacement happened sooner than I would have preferred, but…read moreit ended up being a good test. The new roof handled it without any water entering the building. Before replacement, the surface had blisters, cracked seams, and several areas that held water. We reviewed repair and replacement options, and the condition of the insulation made replacement the more sensible choice. The old layers were removed down to the wood deck. Most of the wood was sound, although several boards near the front parapet needed to be replaced. A self-adhered modified-bitumen system was installed over new insulation and a cover board. The chimney flashing, plumbing vents, and roof hatch were all completed individually. Additional taper was used near the rear drain to improve water flow. The Royal Renovators Inc. crew protected the front planting area and used the rear access for debris. We found a few scraps of membrane near the neighboring fence after completion, but they returned and picked them up the next morning. The final documents included photos, material information, and the written warranty. Months later, the roof is still draining well and the interior stains have not returned.

    The roof on one my buildings had reached the point where the frequency of repairs were becoming…read more.. exponentially more frequent. So, it was time -- full roof replacement. Since the building is both commercial and residiential, one of the biggest concerns was minimizing disruption to tenants, and of course keeping everything on budget and organized. From the start, Royal Renovators seemed to understand these concerns and put together a plan that worked around the building's daily operations. The existing roof was removed, damaged areas were addressed/fized, and a new roofing system was installed along with snazzy updated flashing and drainage improvements. Communication throughout the project was - chefs kiss - and we always knew what stage things were in. As expected, there were additional conditions unconvered that needed to be addressed. But, these guys were transparent about it, laid out the options like they did before, and it didnt turn into pressure or surprises. What stood out was how transparent they were when additional conditions were uncovered. Every decision was discussed beforehand and documented with photos. In the end, the new roof was completed on time, and is performing exactly as expected.

He explained everything clearly, gave me a fair price, and his team got the job done fast and clean. They waterproofed and replaced the skylight completely, no more leaks, no more stress. These guys are true professionals. Honest, reliable, and hard working. I will definitely be calling them again for any future work. Highly recommend BR Contracting Group to any business owner in Staten Island

After discovering a leak in my roof following a big storm, I called several roofing companies, but Genci responded quickly, scheduled an inspection within 24 hours, and provided a detailed and transparent estimate. He just finished a job in Brooklyn and had the materials to repair my roof and with a great estimate. He worked efficiently, and treated my home with respect--no mess left behind and minimal disruption. What impressed me most was his honesty. He even went above and beyond by inspecting the rest of the roof to ensure everything was secure and sealed properly, without charging extra. The repair was completed faster than expected, and the quality of the work is outstanding. If you're looking for reliable, honest, and skilled roofers, look no further. Best Roof Contracting is the real deal.

    I called Bill after closing on a 1940s house with a questionable roof history that clearly needed…read moresome attention. Just from speaking with him, I could tell right away that he was extremely knowledgeable. He even pointed out that my roof hatch was very high quality, which gave me confidence that he really knew what he was looking at. A few days later, Bill showed up personally, walked the entire roof, and gave me a thorough assessment. A few days after that, after one full day of work, I had a pristine, repaired roof that looked fantastic. The price was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of workmanship I received. I would gladly pay it again for the peace of mind and quality of the work. He even went above and beyond and sawed off a lock the prior owner left on the hatch that we only found out when Bill attempted to open and the keys didn't work. If you need roof work done, Bill is your one-stop shop. Just call him -- you won't be disappointed.

    I can't say enough good things about Bill White Roofing! Their customer service was absolutely…read moreamazing. They came out the same day, went up on the roof, and quickly identified a small hole that two other companies completely missed. Both of those companies quoted me around $2,500, saying I would need to remove fascia and gutters--without even inspecting the roof properly. Bill White Roofing was honest, straightforward, and saved me from unnecessary work and costs. It's so refreshing to deal with people who truly care about doing the right thing. I will absolutely be referring them to all of my neighbors and will continue to call them for any roofing needs in the future.

I figured a short drive for him would result in a slight savings for me. I asked him for an estimate over the phone but he insisted on coming over?!?!?! So I met up with him and he gets 5 stars for being timely. The estimator began to COMPLAIN to me about the difficulty of the job and the manpower required to complete such a task. He exclaimed a minimum of 2 men are required and it will take all day! REALLY? His estimate to CLEAN the debris from the roof gutters (3 sides) came to $750! REALLY? Honest business here? I then asked him what it would cost to clean my next door neighbor's roof gutters so that I can capitalize of some economies of scale here. The estimator then lowered his price to $450/house. REALLY? To make a long story short, I went with a STATEN ISLAND guy that gave me quote over the phone after sending in my house pic and he quoted me $175/house!!!! Why are manual laborers like this so dishonest? Whatever happened to honest day's work? Whatever happened to one's honesty? So much for religion, diversity, equity and inclusion?!?!?!? It seems like the local laborer charges for DEI and religion. No thank you.
