This is my second time using Capitol Improvements and they've consistently provided great service. This time they installed a new patio door for a reasonable price. I know because I checked other vendors. Jason was quick to answer questions and provide more affordable, but still quality, options. I'm very pleased with the result! read more

My gutter ripped away from my house, pulling the wood off behind it, during a recent snow/ice storm. Capital Improvements quickly came out, pointed out some other gutter defects I had also noticed and gave a quote. They got the job done as soon as the weather got a bit warmer and now I have beautiful all new gutters and won't have to worry about another section ripping away during the next storm! read more

I hired Capital Improvement to replace my roof. They were professional, responsive and fair. Pat met with me personally to go through all of the details of installing a roof. He was thorough, patient and personable. Melissa in the office was very efficient and helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Thank you Pat and Melissa! read more

Part 1 - Absolutely My #1 Trusted Roofing Company in the Market This review is long overdue; however, I wanted to make sure I took the time to give Capitol Improvement the accurate and thorough review that they deserved for their hard work on our new TPO roof they installed. In Spring 2023, I started performing market research on various roofing companies in the DC Metropolitan area. This was a very time-consuming endeavor for which I ultimately received roughly nine (9) quotes/bids and determined four (4) or the nine (9) to be competitive and capable of meeting our specifications. Subsequently, you guessed, Capitol Improvement was awarded the project and met the requirements with no delays, no games and no hidden fees or added cost. How it started... From the submission of the quote, the Owner, Pat was responsive and available to answer all my questions. He was transparent from the start and explained in detail the cost, warranties and even walked me through the comparison of the different material options to help me gain an understanding of the lifecycle and quality of the different roofing systems. It is with true confidence, I can say that Pat has built his family owned business on the core principles of customer service, strong business ethics, honesty and fairness. These attributes are becoming obsolete in today's market; however, Pat has managed to instill in his two (2) sons Austin and Lance these principles. Which brings me to the initial site visit with the Project Coordinator, Lance, who truly exemplifies professionalism, expertise and most importantly the skill sets to build a trusting relationship with the customer. I never felt pressured to move forward and every question was met with an answer I could trust and the rationale or documentation to support the response. If ever there was something that Lance could not provide a response or was outside of his expertise; he would immediately contact the subject matter expert and/or research the matter and provide a clear and concise response. During the course of our interaction, I never felt doubtful or apprehensive with the information provided or work being performed. Lance took the time to review the details of the proposal and warranties; in addition to negotiating the terms or the contract he provided copies of all certifications, business licenses, certification of liability insurance and all other pertinent documents. Honestly, I did not have to ask for any required documentation and everything was timely and legitimate. Pat's words held true, that Capitol Improvement operates with integrity and commitment partnering with their customers to get the job done. This was also reflected in my interaction with the Install Manager, Seth and Site Manager, Sam. From day one (1) of the staging and prep for install, which started in October 2023, they literally walked me through the project step-by-step. From assessing the roof original state, taking photographs for record to conducting the initial inspection of the roof to explain the demolition. There was no stone left unturned. As with any project, as issues or concerns were discovered after removing several layers of the original material, which could not have been foreknown, the Site Manger would immediately stop work, notify the Install Manager and myself and ensure all changes/modification were approved prior to moving forward. If impacts resulted in additional cost they were discussed in detail. In one case Pat was willing to share in the cost and find a feasible and cost-effective solution. The entire process was well documented and communication was clear. The job was completed in the time frame estimated and every employee and team member were professional, polite and each day made sure no trash or debris was left on-site. Every team was considerate of the noise-level and was here to provide quality service. Seth and Sam, are definitely a representation of the employees who strive to get the job right, take pride in their craftmanship and aim to please. As with all things in life... we must leave room for the unexpected and during the project there was an unexpected mishap that occurred for which was immediately remedied by the Capitol Improvement Team. They took ownership and accountability and made sure it was no additional expense or stress on my end. How they addressed the matter was another demonstration of the integrity of the Capitol Improvement. Overall, we are extremely satisfied with craftmanship, quality of the materials used, and services rendered by the install team. read more

I called Capitol Improvements to get a quote for a sagging soffit outside. Pat came and looked at the damage. He said it came from a leak and before I could fix that I needed to repair the leak in the roof and also replace the gutters. I've knew my gutters desperately needed replacement so I was prepared for that. Pat sat down with me, showed me his credentials and his work on previous jobs. He also offered third party financing at a low interest rate. I hired Capital Improvements for the job. It was done in time and on budget. The recent wind storm resulted in damage to my roof. I've already called Pat to do the work for this job as well. read more

Our rental property in MD was in need of roof repairs. Using Yelp we found Capitol Improvements, and could not be happier. Initially we were nervous about the process, because we are no longer in the D.C. area, but Capitol Improvements put us at ease. They provided pictures, communicated thoroughly with us on all the problems, and completed the repairs in a timely manner (actually earlier than expected). Additionally, they were very professional and reasonably priced. We highly recommend them! read more

Capitol Improvements LLC replaced my Roof on February 20, 2022 (8 am to 4 pm) I needed a Roof. I selected Capitol Improvements to replace my roof, because they replaced my siding on my house, and did an EXCELLENT JOB, paying attention to the small details and finished in an appropriate time. They built the siding back BETTER than it was. The company is also BBB Rated A+ with an EXCELLENT rating from many people, at the time I used them. This Company is truly the A team. Pat is the owner, and has exceptional people communication skills, extensive knowledge on roofs and sidings and can answer all your questions. Pat takes the time to talk to you, and explain exactly what they will do, and how to improve on what was there in the past. The Capitol Improvement front office team also did a good job commuting the day and time the work would start, and what to expect. For my roof replacement project, the front desk said the construction crew would arrive at 7 am. The construction crew arrived at 6:50 am and completed the job before 4 pm. The people who actually replaced my siding and roof were skilled construction workers. The Siding and Roof workers, worked fast, safe, did a FABULOUS job and cleaned up after their selves when finished. The roof also looked good. I live in a townhouse, and I share a roof with my neighbor. The concern was that I would mess up my neighbor's roof, as we share a common part of the roof. Capitol Improvement Roof Construction team, tied my roof in to my neighbor's roof seamlessly. I am very happy with Capitol Improvements job that they did on my siding and roof, and I highly recommend them for your new or replacement Roof and Siding projects, because they did an excellent job on my siding and roof. At the time of this writing (3/12/2022) Capitol Improvements have a good BBB Accredited Business rating and good ratings by many people online for completions for siding and roof projects. I don't even take the time out my day to write a referral on a company, unless I was truly impressed by the company's effort and results. Capitol Improvements inspired me to take the time, out of my day, to write this referral. Thank You, Robert C Bowie Md 20721 read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Capitol Improvements. They made the process of replacing my 25+ year old roof as painless as possible. From start to finish, they met and often exceeded my expectations. For starters, it was very easy for me to contact them to get a quote and a follow up appointment. I definitely can't say that about the various other companies that I contacted. Then, when Pat arrived at the follow up appointment, he gave me a very detailed explanation as to what goes into the construction of a good roof and what the process was. He also made sure to thoroughly answer all the questions and showed me pictures of his past projects, and who doesn't love pictures? Pat was very personable and knowledgeable, but what I appreciated most about our interactions was that at no time did I feel that he was trying to sell me something that I didn't need or that he was pressuring me into anything. In fact, I asked him to give me a few days to reflect before signing the contracts, and unlike other contractors, he had no problem with that, and there was no change at all in his friendly demeanor. Though I loved the excellent customer service that I received from Capitol Improvements, my favorite part of dealing with them was their pricing. In my experience, they are by far the best values for the price in the area and in my search for a roof, I got quotes from over 10 companies in the DMV area. So in summary, I received excellent customer service, excellent pricing, and a beautiful new roof with a 50-year warranty! Before and After pictures are attached. read more

Capitol Improvements replaced my roof on November 4, 2019. I highly recommend this family-owned/run business to anyone in need of a roof repair or replacement. The Owner, Pat Jewell, and his son Austin provided step-by-step information from beginning to end. The job was done on time, at the price quoted, and caused me no stress or anxiety. Hands down, this company beats many of the larger, regional roofing companies. read more

Arrived when they said they would, did what seems to be a fine job, cleaned up after themselves, and charged a fair price. What more could you ask for? read more

First are foremost, Pat (the owner) and his team were incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. Every interaction was low pressure, light, and friendly. As a customer, this is important to me... but so is the quality of work. Capital Improvements gave us a super competitive roof quote compared to other companies. They also had the credentials to help get much of our costs covered by insurance. Their services also came with exceptional product and labor warranties. The construction team worked diligently until the project was complete. The teardown of the roof, construction, and thorough cleanup were all completed within a workday. Our new roof looks great and functions as expected (4 months). We highly recommend Capital Improvements. Thanks, Pat. read more

I wanted to take the time to update my review because the owner did reach out to me after my last review where I didn't get a call back and as promised he found my info and personally called me. While I did not get the chance to use their services as I had an immediate need the first time I called, I do appreciate the effort to make things right. Given that Capitol Improvements has great reviews it's possible that I would consider them again in the future. read more

I used this company (September / 2019) and have no complaints. They were professional, courteous and personable. The materials were delivered on the date I was provided and the work was completed in one day as promised. As well, I was informed they would have to return in a few days to add the new gutters and shields ...and they did. I would highly recommend Capitol Improvements. read more

I wish I could give more stars for this amazing company!! Being a first time homebuyer you always have companies who are looking to take advantage of you because they think you don't know any better BUT Mr. Pat with Capitol Improvements is far from that. I had (4) roofers come out and Mr. Pat was the only one who broke it down piece by piece picture by picture and price by price. Gave me advice and recommendation on different things around my house! I knew I was in good hands with getting my roof replaced!! His son Austin was super responsive and gave me advice on different types of roofs. My roof came out absolutely amazing! I've been telling everyone about them! They are truly one of a kind and you know that you're getting quality with their products! Thank you so so much for my new roof!!! read more

the staff that actually performs the home improvement are horrible about organization, they were in neighboring yards on cars with equipment standing in yards taking photos unacceptable I even have photos. i Think if the techs would have said we're working and may from time to time have to come on your property but to be on my vechicle is a problem. This discouraged Me from everything wanting to use the company and I will definitely share with anyone willing to listen. read more

We used Capitol Improvements to replace all our gutters and downspouts which included gutter guards. They were able to help us match the color of the materials to the house. The job looks great and they did it in a half day. The workers were courteous, very careful around all our plants and outside furniture, and they cleaned up flawlessly. Prior to selecting Capitol Improvements, we price compared with two other big companies and Capitol Improvement's overall price was 20% lower than those companies. They always had good communication, in fact, it was the owner himself, Pat Jewell, who we met with to explain the job and the cost. I would highly recommend the Capitol Improvement team to all my family and friends! read more

My HOA noticed the previous owner of my house patched my roof with mismatched shingles requiring either complete replacement of the roof or another patch. I received three estimates one about 40% higher than Capitol Improvements, one lower but with lesser materials and reasonable proposal for the entire roof replaced with matching shingles. Pat Jewell showed up on time to provide an estimate, was very knowledgeable about my roof, house and neighborhood. He provided a thorough overview of the process to replace the roof, ordered the materials, communicated with me throughout the work and delivered on every promise he made. The roof looks fantastic, meets the HOA guidelines and is guaranteed for 25 years. I'll not have to worry about the roof for 25 years and the HOA will not bother me anymore! That's a great feeling. Pat and Austin Jewell were my primary contacts throughout the process which took a total of about 8 days from estimate to roof completion. I'm a very happy customer and recommend them highly. read more

Apologies accepted and so I have updated my review from one to three stars. Obviously some clients are happy with the work you did for them. read more

Pat and his family run business, Capitol Improvements, did a wonderful job from start to finish with our new gutters and gutter guards. We received multiple quotes (6) and Capitol Improvements came in at a reasonable and fair price; not the lowest, not the highest. Pat's personal touch and honestly during the estimate is what made us to decide to go with him. They even came back after the initial installation to install an extra splash guard on a roof valley that was causing water to flow over and around the new gutter guards. If you are in the market for gutter guards, AND you never want to touch your gutters again, Capitol Improvements and the brand they use, Leaf Relief, are the only ones with a lifetime factory warranty AND a lifetime no-clog warranty. I did my research and was very pleased with the outcome. When it is time to replace our roof in a few years, we will call Capitol Improvements to come out and give us a quote for that! read more

I had my roof replaced by Capitol Improvements last Monday. From the very initial contact with Capitol Improvements through the installation process I was impressed by the professionalism of EVERYONE involved with this project from Pat, to Austin, Lance, and Florencia, to the installers. The materials used were top of the line and installation was done with precision and care. Great care was also evident with regard to protecting the property during the replacement. Everything was protected from any materials removed from the roof and all trash was contained as it was removed and all surroundings cleaned well. I've been getting compliments from neighbors. The roof now has great eye appeal! I would also recommend Capitol Improvements to anyone seeking professional roof installation, at an affordable rate and is willing to work with you on payments. Even up until the last few days I would call or text them with questions and they provided the answers in a timely fashion. The work ethic was exceptional and the roof was done all in one day. Looking for someone to install a new roof? Well look no further. You've gone to the right people. Capitol Improvements!!! read more

Capital Improvement did an outstanding job on replacing my roof. One phone call and within an hour I had a price quote with pictures of my roof and information to education me on all the products that will be used and why they recommend material. Within a day they scheduled a home visit to review the quote and discuss in detail the job. I received three (3) quotes from other companies, None of them were as thorough, professional or reasonable price points as Capitol Improvement. Within a few days of signing the contract, materials were delivered and installation was done in one. Wife and I are very happy with their craftsmanship. Great Job read more

I called twice for an estimate on a roof repair and (altough I was referred to a sales associate's voicemail) never received a return phone call. Apparently they have more than enough busness and don't need any more potential customers. read more

We were ultimately very happy we chose to go with Pat and his team at Capitol Improvements! While Mitch doesn't typically lead sales on their roofing products, he worked with us and was excellent. Very informed, patient, and honest. We had quite a few questions about the quote, and Austin (Pat, the owner's, son) was very helpful and thorough in addressing all our questions. The final price for a new roof and gutters was very reasonable and easily beat competitors' quotes. The actual roofing work was quite fast. Immediately after the roof, I was not happy with the amount of waste left around our house, and their were a few other quality concerns with shingles and siding. However, I wound up having quite a few discussions and in-person meetings with Pat, the owner, and was ultimately quite pleased. Pat was extremely responsive, helpful, and reassuring. He ensured that all my concerns were addressed and he made commitments about guaranteed service going forward. While I initially had some frustrations and concerns, I found Pat and the team very easy to work with and would certainly hire them again and recommend them! read more
