Absolutely Fantastic...I have a large house in San Anselmo with a roof that started springing leaks during the last powerful storm. I needed a new roof as soon as possible. There was ONE clear day between storms. Jon and his crew arrived at 7:30 am, removed the old composite roof, repaired damage and installed the new roof with gutters and cleaned the property by 5:00 pm. It's now raining five hours later. The best roofing experience and probably the best overall construction experience I've had. I'd give him ten stars if I could. read more

Jon and his crew did a great job! I'm so pleased with the whole process and the results of beautiful! Jon was easy to get ahold of consulted me on every detail. I tried to get quotes from some other companies but none of them have it together like Jon and ABLE roofing. I highly recommend ABLE roofing and would use them again without hesitation, I wouldn't waste my time looking any further. Thanks Jon for the beautiful new roof! read more

They were able to come right out and help patch my leaky roof. The crew and owner were friendly

Honesty, I don't like to complain and was very hesitant to share my negative experience. It's been about 9 months since I had Able replace our roof. Although our new roof looks beautiful, I am still to this day, finding large roof staples, nails, and old roof debris all around the front, back and side yards. I now wish I had saved and taken pictures of all the old, rusty staples, well over 100 in total so far. We are spending more time at home now with the shelter in place order and just found this nail coil in our shrubs. Enough is enough! Able was careless, messy and irresponsible. They knew we have children and dogs and their lack of project follow-up to ensure the safety of their clients shows their unprofessionalism. read more

Able Roofing stands out in today's world where it's rare that someone shows up on time, provides timely quotes, scheduling updates, and offers competitive pricing. Not only did they do a great job, but Jon was there to start the project, check on progress, and showed up next day to ensure that clean up was up to par. Which it was! Absolutely best cleanup I've ever had in any project. The only thing I could ask for is that Jon's company provide more services. I wish we could employ Able to help us with more projects! read more

Jon and the team did a great job re-roofing our home. His team worked quickly and effectively! His crew ripped off our old roof, put on new shingles, gutters and gutter shields in less than 4 days! Great efficiency in the way his team works. I would recommend working with Jon if you are looking for a quality product - they definitely don't cut corners. read more

I had a great experience with Able Roofing. Yes they are busy and yes I had to wait a couple of months for their schedule to free up so they could do my job... but it was worth the wait. I had a number of roofers quote on the job (tar and gravel flat roof in Mill Valley) and although Jon wasn't the lowest quote, I felt he would do the best job. Jon's team found some dry rot and had to replace some boards. They also needed to replace the rain gutters. Although that meant some additional work and the job price was increased, I felt that he was fair and honest about it... and even with the additional work the final price came out to be lower than some of the other quotes I had received. read more

Rudest contractor I have ever dealt with. Am surpised by the positive reviews on this site. Won't use this individual's company again.

Jon Able, the owner of Able Roofing, is a stand-up guy. His bid was fair, and you will not find a more honest, reliable roofer! He and his team were a pleasure to deal with from beginning to end. My roof looks perfect, and the rain gutter screens they installed will reduce my fire risk. They cleaned up afterward and even used a magnet to pick up any stray nails. Jon didn't complete the job until I was 100% happy! He is the roofer you need and want. read more

Do yourself a favor and hire Jon of Able Roofing in Petaluma! Jon has just finished his 5th roof for me between my home, garage and rentals. He kept his word, stayed on budget and showed up exactly when he promised. His excellent team were great to work with and did all of the clean up for me at the end of each day. Jon really cares and does an excellent job. He also recommended other contractors that we needed which was such a help to us. I happily recommend Jon to anyone who cares about their home. He is the best! read more

Able Roofing - expert team from Petaluma's Able Roofing hard at work - Roofing Near Me

Able recently replaced our roof and we're really happy with the quality of their work and service. It was obvious to our family that Jon (owner) is focused on quality and builds roofs to last. Jon's crew (including his foreman Leo) were all really nice guys and professional that took the time to explain the process and why they install roofing material in a certain way to create a longer lasting waterproof seal. They also worked with us when we had specific requests such as integrating solar. We would definitely hire Abel again. read more

I am so glad I found Able Roofing. We had a hard-to-identiy problem leak and Jon got his experts out on it right away. They took care of it. It will be nice not having water seeping down inside our living room any more! read more

Wow, I can't compliment any highly and recommend this company enough! They have integrity - professionalism - promptness - friendliness - honesty and open 7 days a week, etc. We have some water markings on the ceiling and called Jon on Sunday at 3pm. Jon responded right away and scheduled an inspection, estimate and needed repair within seconds for the first thing on Monday. Then, their great technician Leon arrived at 9am on Monday; did a very thorough investigation and told us that the water marking is old and actually from an older repair left by another company from years ago. Therefore, we shouldn't have to worry about it; and charged us nothing. OMG! This is the top top top roofing company and there is no wonder that they got all of the 5 Star Yelps. I'd give them ten stars! read more

Jon and his crew showed up on time and finished our roof in two days plus set up for solar power. They left our yard and house very clean. They were very professional and worked so hard. I highly recommend this company. read more

Doesn't get any better than this! Called in the middle of an "atmospheric river" after seeing water damage on our ceiling. Crew was out there the next day-I even called and talked to Jon at 6:30am to confirm, which is amazing. Jamie and another guy came out, was honest about our roof being old (we just bought the house) did his best to seal it and so far so good. I'll make sure to come here as soon as we save enough for a new roof! read more

We had some water stains in the bedroom of our rental property so we flew in from Chicago to get estimates from 4 roofers. One never returned our calls, one was a no show and one spent 10 min walking around the roof before coming back and saying our vent pipe was cracked. It wouldn't take long to seal it up, all for $350. We also asked about the gutter and the guy said he'd email us the estimate that night. Then there was Able Roofing. Jon was the only one who got all Sherlock Holmes on us. He saw the vent pipe and said it was fine. If it was really a leak, then there should be water stains on the plywood on the floor of our attic, which should lead to water stains on the ceiling of the bedroom, which wasn't there. He also noticed that the water stains in the room was glossy, which didn't seem right. Jon rubbed the stain with the sleeve of his shirt. It came off! We have no idea what the tenant was doing in there and Jon said if it was water, it would've been embedded in the dry wall. Mystery solved! Another reason why we love Jon? We asked him about our gutters and he said he noticed that they did need replacing but didn't want to be all high pressure on us. But since we asked, he recommended that we replace the gutter and get in a few vents on the roof. Since we were there till the end of the week, Jon busted his ass to get his gutter partner to check out our place, send us the estimate, and schedule in a date. His partner did a great job on our gutters. If we ever have any more roofing needs, we're definitely calling Jon. Oh and the other guy? We're still waiting for him to send us the estimate. TL;DR Honest and thorough guy. Call him now. read more

Scheduled an appointment to get an estimate for a roof replacement 4 weeks in advance. A day before the appointment they called to cancel it with a "something came up" reason. On top of it they refused to give addresses to check out their completed roofing jobs. Gave them 2 stars because they actually called to cancel the appointment. Adding 2 stars: the very next day after posting my original negative review Jon stopped by to apologize for what happened. I received the estimates and the addresses to check out within a few hours. He definitely cares about his business and reputation. read more

I had several quotes and Jon from Able Roofing was the most competitive. They did a great job, kept me informed and went the extra mile to make the job complete... finished work which was never even on the bid at no additional charge. 5 Stars across the board on Service, Cost and Professionalism. read more

Jon was fast to get back to me by phone, and had part of his crew out to my home in only a couple of hours. The crew (Leo & Diaz) were great. Very polite & professional. They took the time to get up on my roof and inspect the problem area. They took pictures and consulted with me on the situation - they were honest with me that they didn't think the issue was being caused by my roof, which ultimately meant they wouldn't need to do any work (or get paid for their time so far). I always appreciate that level of honesty and integrity. You can trust that these guys will give you objective advice. I would definitely call them up again if we have issues in the future. read more

I came home from vacation to find a huge water stain over my bed in the master bedroom. With a storm moving in a started calling roofers. All I got was voice mails UNTIL I called Abel. John answered the phone and I had a crew out within 10 min (Yes they were in the area). They located the leak and charged me a reasonable fee. 5 stars!!!!!!! read more

They came promptly on the day we called. Repaired a leak and returned days later to check on it. Highly recommend this business!!!

My favorite go-to roofer. I've worked with John and Able Roofing for over 8 years. They've replaced three roofs and John has been my go-to for any property we are looking at. Incredibly trustworthy, professional and helpful. If you need an honest person to help you with your roof work with Able. A+ read more

Able Roofing Company just finished our roof and they did a great job. Jon's crew does excellent work. Our roof was also prepped for the addition of solar and Jon helped us set up and coordinate with the other contractors for solar, skylights, and masonry. Jon was also on site at least a couple of times each day and frequently was involved in the installation as well as anything needing specific attention. When the project was completed they cleaned up the site thoroughly. I would definitely recommend this company. read more

The guys who came to my house for the work yesterday are experimental and professional. After they were done, there was heavy rain for more than 24 hours, but no more leaking. I'm so happy about it. Before I had a different company to fix it, but just wasted money. So I definitely will recommend Able to other people who need to repair their roofs. Thank you, Able! read more

They came out to fix a leaky skylight and we're very happy with the service. No more leaking. The first guy I had out from another company just told me I needed to replace the skylight for $2000+. Really appreciate that Able Roofing was able to fix it. The only thing I would mention is be prepared for a big window of time for them to come -- they couldn't give me any shorter window of time than between 8am-5pm, and then they told me they would call before coming so I could be out and about as long as I was nearby, but of course they didn't and I was out when they came. But they waited for me and didn't seem too annoyed, so that was nice. One other thing to be aware of -- the way it worked was the workers came, but then they called the manager/owner, who then called me to tell me the problem and ask if I wanted them to fix it, and then I told him yes, the workers fixed it, and they left. Not a big deal, but it's a little strange that the workers don't communicate directly with the customer and answer questions, etc. All in all we were very happy with them and would definitely use them again! read more

I highly recommend them. Jon is very responsive. They came over and took care of the issue right away!

I guess when you do not need a job, you just do not return calls. I had a bid from the owner Jon Willis for a roof on our home.. I reached out to him four times when I was ready to go forward with the job.. I had left messages on almost all his telephone numbers and this company was not be professional enough to return a call. Could it be that these trades people are so wealthy they do not need to run their business in a professional manner? I hate to leave neg feedback, but after trying to communicate with this person for three weeks. I have had it. Jon, please do us all a favor and don't give us the canned response " sometimes we miss-communicate or it has been so busy that I haven;t had time to breath.. THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR NOT RETURNING A CALL IF YOU ARE IN BUSINESS !!! read more

I have a low-slope roof, and chose the "old school" hot-mop method, as it is very durable. (I understand that Able does all types, including high-tech TPO as well.) I had no idea what's involved in a roof job on an midcentury modern Eichler-type home with skylights, but got a quick education when I saw the Able work crew descend upon it with military precision, but with a sunny attitude and great camaraderie. They found a bunch of horrors underneath my old roof, but fixed them efficiently and ably, just like the name implies. I was also impressed by the expertise of the owner, Mr. Wills, whose directness as to how to do the job right is a big plus. I'm 100% satisfied. read more

Working with Jon and Able roofing has been an absolute pleasure. The roof was leaking, it was a brutal winter. Jon (the owner), comes out personally to estimate all jobs. The estimate was on a Saturday morning, and within one business day, the proposal was in my email. We met, discussed materials, options, timing and what might be additional work. I loved Jon's honesty, his integrity and his sensitivity to my needs. This was a rental property that had a leaking roof. He prioritized my job; now would the weather hold up for 5 days? Jon kept me informed and his communication and style are impeccable. After a few weeks of more intermittent rain - we finally found a window of opportunity. Jon would not have anyone on his team work on what might be a slippery and unsafe work site. The job was completed with out complication, and it looks fabulous. This was one of the best experiences I have ever had with a service provider. The key here is service and reliability - exceeded all my expectations. Thank you Jon and Able Roofing. read more

I am completely satisfied with their promptness in returning my call, which was almost immediately, and they were able (pun intended) to repair my roof within a couple of days of calling. Amazing service for Marin County. Also, a shout out to Leo for his courtesy and attention to detail! read more

I can't say enough about Able Roofing! What a great company!! It is so nice to have a new roof and no worries after all the rain we have been having!! read more

Called Jon with an urgent request because our roof was leaking and we were away on vacation. He had his guys come out within a few hours (amazing!), next rainstorm and the roof leaked again same spot, called Jon again (not happy), he sent his guys out right away again (I was skeptical), did not charge me (happy), and months later I'm watching my roof like a hawk every time it rains and no leaks!! It's hard to find a roofing company you can trust, and I'm super picky, but Jon seems trustworthy and straightforward. I recommended him to my neighbors who used a reputable roofing company to do their roof and it leaked. Jon delivered for them as well. read more

Crew was fast and thorough and fixed appear to be successful. They even did extra precautionary fixes and did not inflate the quoted price. Pleased! read more

Jon, Is a remarkable business owner.. He is a straight shooter, performs like a pro and he delivers on his word. His team did a small home for us in Novato. He quoted two days and two days it was. There was no need for us to clean up after his team was done. and Jon was onsite a number of times to insure that things were going as planned. I have waited to review Able roofing till we had sometime weather to measure the roof and gutters performance.The roof is performing as one would expect ( VERY DRY) and I cannot endorse any business in the building trades more highly than Jon Willis & his company Able roofing. I am looking at another home that will need roofing in the near future. I will not be shopping around...I have found out in life most of the time you get what you pay for. In the case of roofing companies that is not always the case.. with ABLE ROOFING. you get exactly what you hope you would get from any contractor, A GREAT JOB at a fair price done in a timely manner. A.Ross read more

we were very happy with Able roofing. In January when it was rainy almost everyday, we had a leak and John quickly arranged for his crew to fix the leak in rain on a Saturday. Few weeks later, when rain stopped we asked them to check the roof again. They came and did water test to check their earlier repair. Everything was good. I strongly recommend Able roofing. read more

Very happy with our new roof. Jon and his crew took off an old tar and gravel roof and replaced it with shingles, ridge vents, and gutters (with new fascia). Handled all the wood work themselves, including fixing problems from the original construction decades ago. Roof is now better than new. His team identified and fixed issues as they came up, and Jon always let me know if there were new expenses before he did the work. Would absolutely use this team again. read more

Excellent Company and Quality Service. To compare, I had five additional companies come out to bid replacing my entire 20 year old roof which has had to deal with Lucas Valley wind, and full sun exposure, thus causing many of the shingles on 50% of the roof to be worn to the fiberglass. With a roof this old, you just can't replace half of it so I started the process of calling companies from Marin and Sonoma county to bid the job. This home is over 4000 sq feet, multi level, I knew it would be an expensive job. Jon was the quickest to respond and come out and only he and one other company took the time to climb onto the roof and inspect every nook and cranny. The other companies just used satellite images. Not only was Jon's pricing by far the most reasonable and fair, but his attention to detail went far beyond my expectations, making notations on a few other things that needed to be removed such as an old, non working rusted attic fan. He was able to come out a week later to show me samples and colors and I happily signed the contract and gave him the required deposit to get into the queue. While we initially had a day scheduled and yes, other things had to happen such as finding a place to vacate with our two German Shepherds, etc, the unfortunate thing happened. Jon called to let me know he was down a guy and as a result, everyone's job had to be pushed back. Of course, many people were very upset as this create a domino effect in people's lives. One change causes other changes to occur and then you find yourself, in the busy summer months, trying to reschedule everything. Having run a business myself, it wasn't difficult to show compassion but Jon became overload with calls to the point of his voice mail becoming too full to take on new messages. I realized the importance of staying calm, finding a way to push everything on my plate back as our home needs to go to market before we lose the window of time that's critical to sell a home in the Fall leading into Winter, and just waited to work with Jon on a time frame that would work with his crew and schedule and mine which over time, became less flexible. I can truly understand people's frustration when they want a phone call returned or a concrete date established but often people get overloaded, trying to multitask and please everyone while keeping their crews working and their current projects flowing. It truly is a juggling act and while many are quick to jump the gun and write a poor one star or zero star review, it's more appropriate to give the person the benefit of the doubt, explain your situation and listen to theirs, and then try to come to terms with what may or may not work. Sometimes you can wait until the following year, even with the 'El Nino' warnings. Sometimes we put off something we should have done years prior as a roof is not only a 'non sexy' project, but it cost a bloody fortune. It's as pleasant as going for a root canal, we just don't want to have to write that big check. Jon is a good guy. He has good values, he is working very hard to please too many people, he runs a reputable company and is doing the best he can. Your calls will be returned, your e-mails will be returned but change does happen and circumstances often throw things into a bit of chaos. I spoke to other companies when my job had to get pushed back and trust me, everyone was booked well into next year and many were charging 25% to 35% more for the same job. When there is a strong need or panic, many roofing companies take advantage. Jon's prices make the wait worthwhile and everyone out there has to realize that if your scheduled date needs to be changed or you have to wait a few days for a call back, assume that there is a lot going on and it's not about you even though it is frustrating. I could have cancelled but all I would have done is shot myself in the foot and jumping to a different company wouldn't have done anything but create more frustration, a longer wait and a much higher financial outlay for the same product. During these times when we're all stressed out over many things going on in our lives, including the ups and downs with the stock market and so much uncertainty in general, take the time to slow down, catch your breath and realize that kindness and gentle communication and giving someone the benefit of the doubt goes a long way. I have only met Jon twice, he is not a friend nor a relative, just someone that I am very happy to be giving my business to as he truly does care. read more

Some of these negative reviews are bitter that Able Roofing wasn't available to do the job in "their" time frame. To leave a low rating of the company when the only fault of the business owner is being honest and realistic about the schedule is misleading to the public. I called Jon today for a minor repair and had a similar experience. He said they're booked 2-3 weeks and apologized profusely. Although disappointed, I think he handled it very professionally. When I need a new roof in the future, I'll know to schedule well in advance. read more
