    My friend left a negative review for the exact same reason I'm leaving this review. First choice was the first business to respond to my yelp review. They responded within 1 minute of my quote request but have since ghosted my business solicitation. Don't waste your time on these guys and book a business who actually wants business. Sucks to be them, I was going to replace my entire rain gutter system. Seems as if Marcelino is only interested ghosting potential customers. Anyone else want some business?

    My wife and I just purchased a new home about, eight months ago and have been loving every minute of it. Being in San Diego, the weather is almost always sunny and rain is something that very rarely comes to mind. So when it came just recently, I took the time to walk around the house to see if there were any issues that needed to be addressed. While I was making my rounds, I noticed a portion of my roof and a long valley in it. As rain would hit the body of the roof, it would run into the valley, gain speed on its way down, and shoot over that portion of my rain gutter completely. The water was hitting the ground with such force, it seemed to be causing erosion. I immediately started panicking because the last thing I wanted was for the water to gather and get underneath the house. I ran to Lowe's and Home Depot searching for answers and found nothing. Jumped on Yelp, typed "rain gutter" into the search bar and started making calls. No one would help me. They either would say they, "didn't have the time to come out," or they wanted to charge me $200 bucks. Thankfully, I eventually got in contact with Marcelino. He explained what was going on with the roof and how I needed a "diverter." He also took the time to look at his schedule and see they were close to my area the following day and offered to stop by and fix the problem. At this point, I was getting ready for the large dollar figure he would tell me the job would cost. Guess what he told me? No cost at all. I was shocked. His brother came by the following day, fixed my problem and was off on his way. We had to practically force a tip on him because he wouldn't accept it. Businesses and owners like these don't even exist anymore. We are going to have them come back and install a whole new system. If you are looking for rain gutter installation look no further. Thank you Marcelino.

    Best experience using them for our raingutters on our two story, new construction home. First Choice provided the most competitive quote around as well. They were very prompt in getting back to us and getting an appointment for installation. I would recommend them! I'll follow up my review once it rains!

    Fast reliable service. Professional job. Would highly recommend. Reasonable pricing. Had gutters installed and with 3 downspouts. They were able to get the job done sooner than expected. Haven't had a rain yet but the gutters look fantastic.

    Excellent service! From getting my the quote to the actual work being done - we had no issues. Marcelino and his crew showed up on time, finished the work quick with high quality results. I was in between in two colors, Marcelino brought me the bigger samples and put them on my garage and gave me some time to decide. I would highly recommend First Choice Raingutters.

    See all

    Marcelino said he would come by in the morning to give me an estimate. Never showed or returned my text. ‍ strange way to do business.

    Ghosts potential clients - very unprofessional. No measurements, no quote, no follow up to say that project would not be a good fit.

    Our insurance required we get a roof condition assessment and a plan of action for our rental…read moreproperty to bring its roof back to good health. We researched local SD County roofers (from where we're at now - over 1500 miles away) and discovered Roof Masters. Chris L., our Project Manager inspected the roof and provided a VERY thorough analysis, complete with pictures and video. He then developed an estimate with several options. We opted for the 40 year workmanship warranty, and learned that the GAF shingles manufacture's warranty is good for 50 years. Roof Masters communication's and presentation was impressive and detailed. We were informed of what materials and methods would be involved in the process of reroofing our house, and kept advised of changes and milestones before, during and after the 4 day job. Brianna our case administrator made the electronic document, invoice and payment transactions simple, fast and efficient. Looking at the galleries of before and after photos, we are pleased and thankful for the complete roof work accomplished by Chris L. and his Foreman Mr. Santos. Our son was in the area and confirmed it was well executed.

The Roof Masters made the entire process easy and stress-free from start to finish. The crew did an incredible job and completed the roof replacement in about three days. They arrived promptly at 7am each day and worked until around 5pm. I was especially impressed with how well they cleaned up at the end of each day, making sure the area was left free of debris and nails. I also want to give a special thank you to the project manager, Rigo. From the very first day he came out to provide the estimate, he was friendly, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. He was extremely patient while I took the time to make such a big decision (I got 4 different estimates) and was always available to answer my questions and guide me through the process. Overall, I had a great experience with The Roof Masters and couldn't be happier with how everything turned out. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, professional, and hardworking team for their roof replacement!

Our awesome experience started with Mike coming out to inspect our roof, taking pics and sharing them with us, while thoroughly explaining the replacement process. His sense of humor and willingness to answer all of our questions was great. The project itself couldn't have been easier. Junior and the crew showed up on time every day, worked their butts off, and did a killer job cleaning up every day. Nothing was a surprise at the end- our solid quote was what we paid. For anyone looking for a stand-up roofing company, that delivers what they promise with a great attitude and excellent workmanship, go with Cowboy's Roofing.

This was a full roof replacement, and the entire process moved quickly and efficiently. Scheduling was fast, which helped keep the overall solar project timeline on track, and the roofing crew was professional throughout. Cleanup was also very good each day, which we appreciated. The finished roof looks great as far as we can tell, and the work appears clean and well done. One thing we especially appreciated was the responsiveness from the office team. Since scheduling happened so quickly, we did not have much time to choose a roofing color, and they took the extra time to personally drop off physical samples so we could see them in person before making a final decision. That level of customer service made the process feel much less stressful and more thoughtful. Overall, the project felt well coordinated and we're happy with how everything turned out.

I called them and they tested it to see it was an issue with the flashing. They replaced a portion of the siding and had it fixed in one day with some touch up painting the next day for about an hour. I am so impressed with this company and how they stand behind their work. The crew that came out was wonderful and you could tell the supervisor had a lot experience and knew what the problem was right away. While working the job, they went under my house and found the ducting for my HVAC had become detached and let me know. I already have the HVAC company coming out this week. Talk about going above and beyond! If that wasn't enough, I had a part failure in my Enphase solar panels. They had a tech come out right away to troubleshoot. It was still under warranty and it was replaced in no time. It's so nice to see a company stand behind their work and their staff is exceptional. I've worked with the owner, Brian D., the office project manager, Janet S., and the crews are very professional when they come out to do the work. Thanks again Roof King! Kathy Y.

I got out the invoice from Roof King and contacted them to fix this, under warranty. They strung me along for a couple weeks, not returning calls, etc, telling me they wouldn't honor the 12 year warrantee because I didn't "transfer the warrantee" 2 years ago when I purchased the home. I did some research and found out that in California, contractors have to fix their poor workmanship for up to 4 years, regardless of a warranty. I kindly pointed this out to them and gave them a week to respond, before reporting them to the CA licensing bureau. I got a call a couple days later saying "we will be out today between 1-3pm to fix your leak". While I'm glad they fixed the leak (which I cannot confirm since it hasn't rained yet) I think any reputable business would have fixed a leak 2 years after a roof was completely replaced. I would not recommend this roofer at all. If my roof ends up still leaking, I'm getting it replaced by someone else and not messing with this company anymore.
