Great response time, value and work. I had a leak in my roof that was discovered in my crawl space/attic. I later learned it was due to a worn pipe "boot" or "collar". John requested that I contact Dee to schedule an appt. I left a message after hours and Dee contacted me first thing the next morning. John came out the same day with his crew and repaired all of them for a reasonable price! I give them 5 stars for the flowing reasons: 1. Timeliness (response time) 2. Professionalism 3. Value/cost (I didn't feel like I was getting ripped off) I'm adding before and after pics for reference. read more

Responsive, good workmanship, fair pricing. We asked Boyd to help us with a roof leak that was actually a compound issue. They understood the local context of the type of roof we have and were able to quickly quote and get us scheduled. Greatly appreciated. read more

Had my roof replaced by Boyd Construction Company this past May and I'm very pleased with the service. Professional, courteous, prompt and efficient service, good pricing. All necessary parts to a successful project. I have been a customer of Boyd Construction Company for several years. They recently (May 2024) worked with me to extend the life of my original roof until I was ready to have a new one installed. The original roof was over 20 years old, but holding up. They presented options to help extend its life a few more years so I could prepare for its eventual replacement. Once I was ready they moved in and accomplished the process in one day. Prior to that we had discussions about the the project as a whole, amount of time required, where the debris would be placed and picked up, my options for the materials/colors, etc. Boyd Construction Company has worked on my house before, suggesting I wash and REPAINT my aluminum siding rather than REPLACE it. VERY pleased about that. (And "wash & repaint" was less expensive!) For all of my projects they have provided options to consider. For me that's a plus in any given situation--especially when you are relying on the expertise of others to help you navigate through a project and minimize any "surprises". Not all companies do that. Boyd Construction Company has always presented the full range of a project so we both can map out the best way to a successful result. I highly recommend their services and have already done so to several friends. They have been on my personal list of recommended resources for some time. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company. We've hired them twice and they will forever be the only people we work with for our roof. John, the owner, explains all the options, gives competitive pricing, and doesn't add any surprise charges at the end. Dee, the office manager, is responsive, no-nonsense, funny, and will go out of her way to get answers to any questions you have. She reminds me of Donna from Suits, which is about the highest compliment you can give someone who Gets Things Done. Above all, though, they're both incredibly kind people. I gave myself heat stroke trying to get our roof ready, and when I called Dee and told her what I'd done and that I couldn't move everything before the team arrived, she gently reprimanded me that I should have called her first and she would've told me to leave it for the team. When John and his team got here, he said the same thing and that it would be no trouble to move our very very heavy planters and I didn't need to pay anything extra, even though I offered twice. After they finished, he agreed that the planters were definitely too heavy for me to move back myself, and he would send some guys to move them where I'd like them after the roof has cured. Across the board, the work and service from Boyd Construction is outstanding. read more

I am back to request the services of Boyd Construction company. Finally, it's time to replace the roof. Have used their services several times over the past 7+ years, including applying sealant to the roof--twice--to extend its life; monitoring a trouble spot "fixed" by another company several years before that was not aging well from increasing periods of heavy rain; and repainting the aluminum siding (over 25 years old)--after a powerwash. Boyd said the old aluminum was in good shape; did not need to be replaced. Just needed a good ​ powerwash before applying the new base and top coats. I was/am very pleased with the result. Now, it's time to deal with the roof. Nothing specific . Those with older homes know you can tell when an aspect of your house is telling you it needs maintenance/repair. And it's an area ​ where waiting too long may result in an emergency situation. My house was built in the early 1950s . It's in pretty good shape but when an area starts to become a ​ point of concern I take note and follow up and is called maintenance. Have NO regrets about having the sealant placed on the roof--twice-- rather than replacing it immediately several years ago. The sealant bought me TIME--several years in fact-- to position that project when it would be easier on several levels. So, I've contacted Boyd Construction and we have worked out what is to be done before Summer. And I'm comfortable with the costs involved . To be continued. read more

During a heavy rain our (flat) roof started leaking. Upon the recommendation of a neighbor, I reached out to Boyd Construction and they were able to send someone out the next day to inspect the roof and give us a quote. I was really impressed that they took the time to show me the problems and explain how they would repair the issues. Their quote was very reasonable and they were able to schedule the repairs within a few day of our accepting the quote. The work took only a few hours and the team was on time and performed the work efficiently (from what I could tell from an extremely lay perspective!). I am really happy with the work. Plus, Dee, with whom I interacted to schedule all of this, is a pure delight! read more

John and his crew came out to repair my damaged roof after Issac came and gave me a very detailed and very fair estmate. They we fast, clean and very easy to deal with. John was very reassuring that all the work they did would not only fix the problem but last for years. One of the best parts of the experience was dealing with Dee. She runs the office and handles the scheduling and communication. She was great to deal with. Thanks, hon! Love my new sky light. read more

We had a leak from our balcony into the living room. Boyd construction came out quickly to diagnose the problem and provided a $1500 quote to fix the insulation and roofing of the balcony. When the workers came out to do the work it turned out that only some silicone sealant was needed around the door, rather than a full fixing of the floor. This work took less than 45 minutes, but Boyd still insisted on a full payment, even though they misdiagnosed the problem. I will not be using them again and I would suggest you do the same if you care about avoiding a rip-off. read more

Yup. We have one of those pesky leaky DC pop up row houses. Boyd was literally the 15th contractor I called. Many roofers wouldn't even come out, and the ones who did loved to tell us how difficult and expensive our problems would be to fix. John Boyd and Dee brought a lot of clam and clarity to a stressful, complicated situation. They proposed a solution and scheduled the work quickly. Their crew was efficient and professional. Its been about a month since the repairs and after a few serious storms, I feel confident the leaking has stopped. Beyond having the repairs completed, is really comforting to have a relationship with folks that are so competent, reliable, and friendly. read more

I recently requested an estimate for a job I needed. The gentleman was very fast in responding and was kind enough to explain. This wasn't a service they provided. Very professional, informative, courteous, and helpful. I will definitely call Boyd construction if I need a new roof. Thanks again. This is the way a business should run. read more

Highly recommend Boyd's Company. Dee responds quick to messages/concerns. The job was well done by the company and they were able to do a siding job that other companies were unable to perform. They are very knowledgeable about properties in dc. read more

I am very disappointed in my experience with Boyd. We had a leak in my bathroom and it was coming from the roof. Paid 1500$ to have it fixed along with other items that were suggested to us for roof maintenance. One week later and it's raining in the bathroom again. Took forever to get someone out and they then gave me a list of other repairs that could maybe fix the problem. Gave me another quote for a thousand dollars and change. I called another roofer who went out said that they were wrong and that something else was needed. Cost was half as much as Boyd and they actually fixed the problem. Very disappointing experience. They also don't provide a warranty for their own work.. it had been such a short amount of time and they gave me a whole new to do list for the roof. read more

Courteous and efficient in repairing our flat roof in DC. The office manager Dee was great at scheduling our repair, and communicating throughout the project. Isaac is kind and takes great pride in his work. Issac and his team did a fantastic job with our repair, they went above beyond assisting with a few additional tasks that they didn't have to. read more

I asked for an estimate for cleaning my townhouse brick wall at a basement entry. They gave me a number, but when I asked how many men and how many days are involved, the sales lady couldn't answer and stated that it is decided on the day of the job - what?! It appears that they just give you a random number, and you are supposed to agree to it without any reasoning. I asked for any basis for the estimate, and the sales lady couldn't answer. I asked to speak with the person who came up with the number, and she stated that she spoke with the person and that he said, "that's how much it will cost" still without any basis for the number. I would not trust them. read more

I moved with my family to a new home in Washington, DC over the summer. The house is in great shape but we had a roof issue with the garage and wanted to get the masonry fixed at the top of our chimney. They inspected the issues, went over options, and got us an estimate the same day. The work was done well, easy to schedule, and no surprise. It's 2 months later now, and there are no issues with the repairs. I have no reservations recommending this company. read more

Excellent and responsive company. Dee at the front office is one of the nicest and most accommodating people I've ever worked with. It's a family-run company, and it's very evident: they actually care about their reputation and workmanship. We had a leak in our roof, and - while other roofers told us that it would be necessary to replace the whole thing (even though it had been replaced less than 10 years ago), John came out and spent a ton of time talking us through our options. They scheduled us quickly after that, and we haven't had a problem since. We'd recommend Boyd Construction to anyone looking for roofers. They're the best we've come across. read more

Have used Boyd Construction for Deck and Roof Repairs through the years. I have been extremely satisfied with the work completed at our house. Having a 100+ Year Old Row house Boyd Construction has the knowledge and experience to fix the issue(s) quickly and efficiently. read more

These guys really know what they are doing. They are not only professional but also know what they are doing. They have a great family dynamic that speaks volumes in terms of service and knowledge. I would rank them way above any other roofers for experience, courtesy, and most importantly consistently delivering A+ results, quickly and on time. Not to mention providing free estimates. They never overcharge or try to sell things that are not needed. Much appreciated. read more

Boyd Construction Company - www.boydconstructionco.com - Roofing Near Me

Absolutely Competent, Informative and Reliable! I made the right decision choosing John Boyd and Boyd Construction for my new roof. (Unfortunately, it was after having made the wrong decision with M.W.M. Cleaning & Restoration. Run from them!) Dee was an absolute delight to communicate with on all matters. Mr. Boyd came to my home to explain what needed to be done; in what manner; and over how much time it would get done. The contract was detailed and fair. The work was done right the first time and as scheduled. I will use his business again and I strongly recommend it to you. read more

John and his team are amazing professionals to work with. They're prompt, efficient, and do not hesitate to go the extra mile to get the job done right. I've had the pleasure to work with John and his construction team on two previous occasions - once several years ago for a roof recondition which included some minor renovations (adding in two skylights) and more recently for addressing some window and front porch roof runoff and gutter leaking issues. I couldn't have imagined better service, quality, and efficiency from the Boyd construction crew in both cases. Even more, for the leakage issue we discovered that we continued to have the pesky leaks several months later, so I called up John to discuss how we could address the reemergence of the problem. Without question, he sent a crew out the next day to double down and reinforce the fix they had applied in the first attempt. That did the trick. We haven't had recurrence since, and John didn't charge us for the work - a true class act and professional who is stands by the work under his name. Couldn't ask for a better roofer/contractor to work with in the DC metro area read more

We had a few leaks in our pop up, which can be quite stressful and selected Boyd's to do the work after contacting half a dozen roofing companies. Both Dee in the front office and John Boyd were two of the nicest, warmest people I've ever worked with and helped put our minds at ease. They were extremely professional, attentive, and simply a pleasure to work with. I probably annoyed Dee with my dozen or so phone calls with different questions and requests, but she was SO lovely, patient, and responsive throughout. John took the time to explain in detail all the work that was being done, educated me about different types of roofs and membranes, and helped us navigate decisions around the repairs. He also took before and after pictures for the work completed, which we appreciated. After the work was complete, we did experience a minor issue a few weeks later, and John and his team came back out and did additional work at no cost, which really meant a lot to us. I can't recommend Boyd's Construction enough. These are honest people with integrity who go the extra mile to do the job right. You can't go wrong. read more

John Boyd and Boyd Construction Co are the best! As a real estate agent, I needed an honest opinion on the roof of a property, and of course, had a very tight window of needing that information. I called Boyd's, and John was there early the very next morning. He gave us an honest opinion (which, fyi, did not result in his getting more work) which we were then able to use to our favor in negotiations. There is no doubt that I will be using and recommending this honest and efficient company in the future! read more

I had a leak coming down from my ceiling/roof. John returned my call for help quickly, showed up on time for our confirmed appointment time, explained the issue to me (including photos he took of my roof), fixed the issue quickly, and provided context for how roof maintence could help (i have a 7 year building that's never had any maintenance) but he did *not* push. He fixed the issue at hand for a great price, was super professional, and left me with info for next time. I've already referred him to two other people. read more

Boyd Construction Co., was my pick out of a few estimates for my Capitol Hill townhouse roof that started leaking. The Boyd Construction Co., appears well organized (Thank you to Dee, office manager and POC) and have experience from a few generations for re-roofing flat roof (torch down) with Firestone 180 Ceramic Coated. This technology is the best for the flat roof if the workers are highly skilled. John Boyd came for evaluation and estimate on time with his son (son looks very much as the father; it was cute and feels good about the business). We went to the roof to examine it. Without wasting my time John shown and explained me the problems and how it would be fixed. So, I understood what I am getting. The estimate arrived by email next day. All Boyd Construction Co., workers are "in-house" plus one helper, highly skilled, respectful for the property and have great personality and confident in their work. All works was done in 2 days, under owner supervision. Result: high quality roof covering with extra touch. Boyd Construction Co., left me happy with my beautiful roof for years to come. read more

These people are very slick and excellent salesmen. Get other bids - they will tell you when they come to look at your roof that they're in the neighborhood anyway and they can do the work right then for a small discount. Then four years later when you have a leak into your bedroom they will tell you the ten-year warranty doesn't cover the hole and want $600 to patch. Another roofer will do it for half that. read more

Very professional father and son company. My roof was leaking summer of 2015. Not only were they able to start work right away, they allowed me to pay in installments! read more

Boyd Construction is my go to roofer in DC. Very responsive both with the cost proposal and scheduling work. They get in and get out and don't leave you hanging. Excellent company (Dee is a pleasure to work with). read more

Having Boyd Construction do my roof replacement has been the smartest thing I have done. Scheduling with Dee went very smoothly. Mr. Boyd came out to my townhouse, got up on the roof and surveyed the work that needed done. Once I received the proposal for the work, I called and scheduled to have new roof and the flashing installed and everything went great from there. My new roof and flashing looks great. If I ever need anymore work done I will definitely call Boyd Construction. read more

Contacted ten companies before ultimately deciding to go with Boyd, and am very pleased with the decision. It was a great experience - the whole team was pleasant to work with and did a great job on the roof for a fair and reasonable price. John and his crew even repaired the gutters for no extra charge. If I ever need roof work done again (which I probably will, but hope I don't), I wouldn't hesitate to go with Boyd Construction. read more

I needed to put a new coating on my roof and called several roofing contractors. Mr. Boyd came out, took pictures and gave me an HONEST opinion of what I really needed. He patiently explained the different coating products and their durability/longevity. His pricing was reasonable. As a surprise for me, he took care of the unsightly rust that was on my front housing façade. He did this as a bonus, without charge. That was a $500 savings! I will continue to use him for roof and gutter maintenance. read more

John Boyd arrived within the schedule time. Looked at the roofing problem and resolved it beyond my expectation immediately.. It was a pleasure doing business with this company. He also gave a very fair estimate to replace a roof for a neighbor.. Highly recommended.. read more

We hired Boyd Construction to repair the flashing on our roof and seal a few small holes around a mansard window. They were a great company to work with, provided a good service at a reasonable price. The crew completed the job quickly. When we realized that they'd missed one of the small holes because it was difficult to see from the outside, they immediately came back out, examined rom inside our attic craw space, and made the repair. We were very happy to have hired them. read more

John Boyd and his company provided outstanding service in replacing our entire roof at an outstanding price. As we researched, he only used high quality materials. John's knowledge and expertise is second to none. As some of the companies did, he did not just give an over the telephone or satellite quote but came to our home, heard what we wanted, and talked us through the process with the pictures he took of our roof. This was important to us as we needed our leaky roof immediately but properly and expertly repaired. He does not outsource his work and has a loyal and dedicated crew that follows his direction in precise detail. They were the utmost professionals in starting and finishing each day's work and completed our roof ahead of schedule. Our neighbors complimented us in how they cleaned after themselves and had respect coming, leaving, and working in the neighborhood. We appreciate John's candor and leadership towards successful and enjoyable completion of our project. Without any reservations, we highly recommend and thank them for their impeccable work, responsiveness, reliability, and professionalism. Duane and Carrie C. read more

John Boyd came out quickly to see to a leak coming through the roof and gave an honest assessment of the work needed to be done. They scheduled me in two days later for the work and worked fast to complete the repairs. It was a pleasure interacting with everyone involved and I will certainly contact Boyd Construction again and highly recommend them. read more

Mr. Boyd put me at ease from our 1st meeting. He arrived on time for the estimate. He was honest & fair about the needed repairs on my roof & the price. He was also up front with a possible delay of service due to a heavy work load at this time of year near the holidays. Even with the delay, he still had my repair completed with the estimated time frame. The roofing crew were friendly & professional. They completed the work without delay & cleaned up thoroughly after themselves. I wasn't required to pay until the work was finished. Mr. Boyd & his staff are excellent. I will look to him for all my roofing needs in the future. No regrets! read more
