First we started with asking Yelp for help to find roofing contractors for a residential roof…read morerepair. We had moss growing on part of our roof where the sun did not shine most of the year. The moss was forcing some of our shingles to buckle. We also inherited two large areas that were 'repaired' at some point in the past, and those repairs were near failure. Fast forward a bit and we received four estimates for a roof replacement/ updated roof system from different contractors. UV Exteriors' estimate was the most competitively priced by far. We decided to have both the roof on our house and our garage replaced. Overall the sales process was very informative and helpful to us making a decision on our roof; we liked the salespeople from UV Exteriors. The shingles that we had on our roof were apparently called 3-tab shingles and all of the estimating companies stated that they either don't install them or manufacturers no longer make them. So we opted for an upgraded shingle with relief. Our new shingles have copper imbedded in them which prevents the growth of moss. The shingles also have a 50-year warranty, which is a big plus. The UV Exteriors crew arrived sometime before 8am, and they got to work right away. A complete tear-off, and a new installation took a single day by the crew. The crew was kind! Most importantly the installation was wonderfully done AND the mess that a roof tear-off creates was completely managed by the crew. We have not found a single errant shingle, nail, piece of plastic or other debris in our yard or our neighbor's yard. The roofing crew did an amazing job! We appreciate the great job that UV Exteriors did by installing our new roof system, and we highly recommend this roofing company to you!

I contacted Top Midwest Construction at the beginning of February inquiring about a quote for a…read morecomplete roof tear off/installation. I was intending on paying cash, as this wasn't an insurance claim for damage...my leaky roof was simply 2,000 years old with missing shingles and damaged plywood in spots. Nick responded to my text immediately, and we landed on an inspection date. He came out the following week to inspect my roof indicating that he'd handle everything and wouldn't need me around for it (I work full-time). A few days later, he presented me with a very competitive quote for a new roof. After some research and checking out other companies, I chose Nick/TMWC and they installed my roof on an unseasonably warm and beautiful February day (70 degrees!!). I just want to say, from beginning to end, Nick was a joy to work with. He answered all my questions thoroughly and quickly, brought by a stack of actual shingle samples for me to peruse and make my color choice (instead of a catalog), and he was in constant text contact with me about everything. On the big day, he was right outside keeping me updated, sending pics, and explaining every step that was happening before it happened. Once he and the crew were finished (arrived around 730a and finished around 6/630p), besides the beautiful new roof and chimney (and cleaned out gutters, yay!), it's like they were never here. They left the areas outside my home spotless. I whole-heartedly recommend Nick and Top Midwest Construction for your roof needs - whether by insurance claim or out of pocket like me. Nick will take care of you and he's so proud of the work they do - he was beaming when he texted and asked if I wanted to "come out to check this beautiful house." And beautiful it is. I'm so happy. Thanks, Nick and crew!!

Our roof needed replacing, no help from any storm so were on the hook for the total cost. Top…read moreMidwest came up with high ratings so they were on my list of several I called. Because this was entirely out of pocket, I did my homework and Top Midwest quickly became the obvious choice on paper. Once the job started it became clear that I made the right choice - Joe took care of everything I asked for, and Nick as the project lead walked me through the process and what they do. His crew was professional in every way, got the job done and cleaned up like they were never here. We also had the gutters replaced, couldn't be happier with that work as well. These guys are the real deal, if you are looking for a competitive price on exceptional quality work they should be your first call.

I'm visiting Illinois from California, my mothers handyman thought she needed a new roof and…read morerecommended his buddy's. She asked me to help her get some other estimates because the one she received was extremely high. She had an advertisement card from DGB roofing construction Inc. which was local to Crystal Lake and to me a perk. So I called and made an appointment and they were very communicative. Because my mother's home is very difficult to locate they called me a couple times to find us and they were even able to come a day earlier which was great for me having come from out of state and other obligations I needed to manage. Now though, we were expecting to get an estimate my mother was so relieved and felt blessed by the adjuster named Nabil. He was so very honest, thoughtful and helpful and with all the other worries I have about an elderly parent; this gave me peace at heart. He was up on the roof with his equipment & I was also looking at the roof thinking it was looking pretty good. But while Nabil was doing his inspection from the roof and I was on the ground he explained how well the valleys were built, there were top notch vents and the flanges around the chimney stack were also very good quality. He told me it was a 30 year shingle and had probably had been put in about 15 years ago. I am so very grateful that there are still contractors out there with some ethics. Because it would be very, very easy to take advantage of an 80-year-old woman in this day and age. As the other company would have done and the second contractor I had contacted who wasn't going to come and look at the roof he was going to do it via satellite. No thanks! These are the reasons I am giving this company such a high rating even though we did not schedule a roofing project. If you think you need a new roof, I would recommend contacting DGB roofing and construction Inc. and especially to ask for Nabil. The inspection was free as well for my mother. Thank you again so much to Nabil! Keep him on DGB!

BEWARE If you have storm damage and want a company that won't fight for you but will put everything…read morethey have into fighting AGAINST you... well then this is the company. I thought because they were local and I knew the owner they would be a fair company... boy was I wrong. I hired them because my window screens were badly torn, my trim on house was all knicked up due to hail. Some shingles also blew off the roof. I didn't even know if my roof was damaged at the time. They said they would handle everything and even deal with insurance so I wouldn't have to. The deal was they do all the work and I sign all the checks over to them. It was simple...so I thought. I didn't want nor had the time to be dealing with all this. Their contract says they never ask for money from homeowner that it all comes from insurance, yet they billed me for MORE than insurance even gave and that's even after they refused to fix things that were damaged and covered because it wouldn't be "profitable for them". So left me with no $ to repair those items they skipped out of doing. wound up paying over $31,000 and they still wanted approz $8000 more and my screens, deck and house trim were still unrepaired..they wanted the $ allotted for work they didn't do! Provided a grossly inflated bill (no sworn statements)that was blatantly wrong and they refused to fix....until the morning of court that is (you read that right). Not only were they shady, but refused to providing me with the required notarized sworn statements when we requested. Even admitted in arbitration that they do not give till AFTER the bill is paid. BY law they ARE MANDATED to provide yet wouldn't AND yet still sued us. Of course, why wouldn't they because if you read their contract and very fine print on the back, their warranty is VOID if they take you to court.... so it's only in their best interest to bring you there. They don't even try to fix their mistakes-just intimidate and demand full payment. They even sent someone to my home who harassed and tried to intimidate me. They were so unprofessional with my insurance rep. We won in arbitration (for the most part) but still they refused the ruling and pushed to court. They didn't even show or give me a chance to cross examine them since I obliterated them in arbitration neither my contractor nor the manager they sent to collect a wrong bill even showed up to testify... Hmmm. Waiting on a ruling from the judge as he took it on advisement but don't understand how he can even consider ruling for them under the circumstances. Stay away from this company at all costs is my advice. If you don't question them it should go fine, but if you call them out on mistakes... watch out!

Our building needed roof repairs and we are incredibly grateful for the work of Ernie and his team…read more He was very responsive and worked with our budget after conducting a free estimate. He told us that other companies would try to sell us a full replacement but he assured us that he could extend our old roof's life with repairs and maintenance. He was right! Other companies went straight to offering a replacement for many times the price of what Ernie was able to do. Once the work was done Ernie stood by his warranty. There was a small area that needed follow-up work, and he came back and addressed it promptly and free of charge. The whole time he was friendly, professional, and responsive. We are definitely going to have him do our inspections moving forward!

It's hard to walk away from something as expensive as a total roof replacement feeling good, but,…read morethat said, my experience with Hefferan Roofing was absolutely as good as could be. Communication was thorough and timely. Multiple samples were delivered to my home, to ensure I was happy with the color of shingles to be installed. The price for the whole service was well within reason. Since I had my roof done at an unpopular time (winter), I had the full crew at my disposal. Thus, they must have set a new record for how quickly the work was completed. The old roof was removed and the new roof installed in practically no time at all. It felt like Santa's elves were working magic up there! A serious effort was made to protect my yard from debris (though I will say, I wish they would have thoroughly moved back the heavy stones they used to hold down the tarps). All in all, this whole process was about as painless as I could have hoped. Thanks very much for the outstanding work! I would certainly recommend Hefferan Roofing to friends and neighbors.

Sterling is a company that acts as an advocate for the home owner…read more Let's face it insurance companies don't want to pay out on claims. As homeowners we don't know how to deal with them and they take advantage of us. I worked with Sterling exteriors. The rep came out circled the hail damage and came out and walked through the damage with the inspector. He acted as my advocate and I ended up getting new siding and gutters. They just finished the work this week and it looks great. With no out of pocket cost and the rep actually added trim and a few other items on their own. The rep you deal with makes a difference. I worked with Mike O'Brien at 847-703-0299. He was great. Mike kept me updated the whole way through the process. My experience with Mike was exceptional.

I had Sterling Exteriors out to quote on some soffit work that I needed done. They came in…read moremid-September but told me to wait until the end of October to book anything because it would be less expensive. So I waited until the end of October and called. I was told that they were already closing down for the winter but that they had a guy that they worked with who would honor their quotes and do the work. They came back, did a quote, and took pictures to share with their guy. A few days later their referral came out and measured everything. Sterling Exteriors then confirmed what day their guy was going to be coming out. I arranged the financing on my own and had them back out to sign the paperwork and give the the deposit check. When I was giving the deposit check I was told that at that very moment, their guy was out buying the supplies. We were all ready to do. 10 minutes later Sterling Exteriors called back and said that there guy wasn't going to be able to do it because of "a number of issues, but mainly manpower". So they had provided pictures to their guy, confirmed the start date, were in the process of purchasing the required materials, and had a signed work order and deposit. And all of a sudden the guy who was all ready to go couldn't do it. So I said that Sterling needed to do it themselves, but was told no, they were closed for the year and that there was nothing that could be done. It's plainly obvious that Sterling Exteriors under quoted the work and that neither their referral nor Sterling Exteriors themselves would honor the pricing I was given, and that I was being given the run around as to the reason why. When I confronted Sterling Exteriors about this they stopped replying altogether. Very shady business that won't honor their own pricing even after the contract was signed.
