It can be hard to find a good contractor. And by 'good' I mean a contractor who's honest, communicates clearly and in a friendly way, offers good advice based on experience rather than always trying to up-sell the job, works quickly, works cleanly, and, importantly, doesn't over-commit (then under-deliver). Well, MK Construction Specialists is the roofing contractor you've been looking for. Michael, the owner, has been great everytime I've spoken with him, and all of his assistants have been equally available and easy to talk to. They were able to repair some raccoon damage to my roof, add improvements to aid in water flow, and repair a leaking gutter issue that had literally been plaguing my house for years (and which I had two other "gutter specialists" look at). I can't recommend these guys highly enough. read more

Michael took the time to make certain that it was perfect! The custom metal roof on my porch was complex as it included cupolas! It is now the envy of everyone in my area! I'll definitely use Freetail Roofing for the rest of my home. Gee, I feel like I owe them! read more

Had FreeTail Roofing come out and assess the damage in 2021 after a bad hail storm. They walked me through the insurance process and replaced my roof and even got it upgraded. read more

After being "run through the mill" by another company we were glad to connect with Freetail Roofing. We are completely satisfied with the job Michael and the crew did on the roof replacement on our beloved Liberty Hill Home. They were honest, and did what they said they would, in a timely fashion. Would not hesitate to recommend to anyone. read more

Freetail Roofing - New roof - Roofing Near Me - Liberty Hill, Texas

We have 20' high ceilings over our outdoor patio with tongue-in-groove soffit. Due to the harsh winter and warm moist Spring and Summer, the soffit began separating and sagging. We called a number of contractors and few of them responded. Those who did couldn't help. Then we found Freetail. They came to the house within a day and gave us a quote. The day after we received the quote, and before they could get the job scheduled, several large planks fell from the ceiling, creating a serious hazard. Even though they were backlogged with work like everyone else in the area, they saw the danger the problem presented and adjusted their schedule to get us in, repairing the problem within two days. Unbelievable service, and genuinely great folks to work with. They even gave us a free total roof inspection. All at a reasonable price. I would recommend Freetail to anyone needing roof repair! read more

After the last rain we had, I noticed a water stain on my ceiling and called Freetail Roofing. Michael quickly determined the source of the leak and noticed that my roof had hail damage from the hail we had back in May. He worked with my insurance company to get my claim for a new roof covered. The workmen at Freetail were prompt and courteous, and left my property spotless - much appreciated! The new roof looks great. From start to finish, my experience working with Freetail Roofing just couldn't have been better. Highly recommended! read more

These guys dropped the ball several times and were unprofessional as well. They are busy with hail damage but still...

Michael and Kyle were prompt, professional, and knowledgable. I had a tiny leak in my second floor floating deck (that was created when the house was built -- NEVER BUILD YOU DECK WITH NAILS, PEOPLE!!!!) that was causing a leak in my living room. They were able to pry the boards off the deck without damaging them, and find and assess and fix the leak. I appreciate their hard work and professionalism. They are straight shooters and all-around nice guys! read more

These guys know roofs. I had a multi problem flat roof that had sags where rain water would pool causing leaks and eventual structure damage. I had two roofing contractors refer me to Michael "the only roofer in town with the expertise to solve my problem". He and Travis came out the next day and spent an hour inspecting my roof then another hour plus with me explaining the problems, solution & patiently answering all my questions in terms I understood. The next day Travis emailed me 2 itemized proposals, pricing and warranties for my flat roof home and a composition shingle roof for the guest house. The crew was prompt, professional, knowledgeable, accessible and very accommodating. I airb&b the guest house. I'm sure it wasn't easy for them but they kindly scheduled to work around my airb&b occupancy as not to disturb my guest. read more

Just this week our neighbors had their roof done. Full disclosure the neighbors and my family are not on speaking terms. While i was informed that the roof would be replaced and that durring the process we would have some roofing debris in the back yard. My wife was shocked that the roofing material had come down on our plants and damaging the fence. While i understand gravity and that the shingles would fall into the backyard i was not expecting fence damage in process. I called Michael and asked him to come into the backyard and I explained the situation between us and the neighbors. I also explained to him that while the debris in the backyard did not see so extensive was because my wife was throwing it back over fence and into the neighbors back yard. He asked if there was anything he could do to help resolve the issue i asked that the roofing material was removed at the end of the day and at the end of the job and he assured me that this was part of the process. IN a txt later that night he asked if their was anything else that could be done. I asked that if he could purchase me some stain so i could do touchups on the fence. In his text he replied was "Yes sir" from 512-635-4316 ; . I sent him a photo of the paint can and the color and later replied with the brand more clearly defined. Saturday 09 Oct 11:53 am i sent "Eta on stain" no reply 4 hours later 09 Oct 15:30 i sent "should i take your silence as no reply as not ETA us expected" i sent a final response at 21:03 "this conversation will be posted thank you for your no response. see the new review for Freetail Roofing..."

Freetail Roofing - Roofing Near Me - Liberty Hill, Texas

Great experience. After Hurricane Harvey, some of our neighbors reported loose shingles/a few shingles missing. I took a look at our roof, but I really couldn't tell if the shingles were loose or not. MK Construction Specialists didn't find anything wrong when they inspected and did not charge. Will definitely think of them in the future for our needs. Thank you! read more

Worked with Brian to get a section of 6" gutters for my house. His work was great but what set him and Freetail apart was the stellar communication and follow-up. I would not hesitate to contact them for more work in the future. read more

As of today, I still have not received my quote that promised since last week. I reached out to Michael said will reach out to Mathew, still nothing. I called last week and left message for Mathew to call back or send me a quote and still nothing. I'm disappointed with the level of customer service, ignore customer is very rude. read more

About a month ago I needed work done on our flat roof and I called them and they came out and looked at the roof and talked to me about the work they would do and they spent time telling me about how good a job they would do and how they wanted my business, and said he would send me a quote.  But he never did send the quote, and they didn't respond when I've tried to contact them to get the quote. I don't know if they just got to be too busy with other jobs and no longer wanted to do it or what, but it would be nice if they would at least return my call to let me know what's going on. read more

These guys are great. Really stand by their work. We had a small job and they gave it the same effort and quality. Lucky Shaw is the best. Very detailed and very customer service oriented. Ran in to one problem and they took care of right away. Great company. I highly recommend these guys. read more

Travis was extremely helpful on the phone and Russell spent more time than he probably had time for in person when he came to inspect my roof problem. They could have drummed up some unnessary work to get a job but after a thorough review of my problem and a check back in with their supervisor, they said I didn't need a repair and it wouldn't be right for them to suggest any work. They spent the time, gave me some good tips, and were on their way. I was thoroughly impressed with their customer service and professionalism and honesty. If I do need roof work in the future, I'll be calling Freetail! read more

Recommend MK Construction Specialists without reservation! For several weeks, we had water streaming in through one of our windows and the ceiling every time it rained. Michael's crew replaced the flat section of roof above the room with the water damage and properly sealed and framed the window. From the initial meeting until the work was complete, Michael and his crew were courteous and professional. The estimate was reasonable. We were able to get on their busy schedule sooner than I expected. The work site was left immaculate. Michael came out to our home around mid-day to check that everything was to our liking. I even spied him helping one of his employees removing debris - always impressed with a business owner who jumps in to help with the grunt work. It's a relief to know that if we have any other roofing or contraction needs, we have an honest and reliable contractor to call. read more

I highly recommend MKCS roofing. I was in need of fascia repair due to leaky builder grade gutters on my 20 yr old home. Michael and his crew replaced all the wood fascia with hardie and painted the new hardie and the existing soffit. It looks great and the price was very reasonable. Michael and his team were very professsional and responsive to any emails or phone calls. I would definitely hire them again in the future! read more

Had my gutters replaced by Freetail and the work looks really good. Even got some compliments from the neighbors. Communication with Brian was great and no hidden charges. Recommended. read more

We had a 15 year old roof with all sorts of issues. We spoke with 3 different roofers and ultimately made the easy choice of using MKCS Roofing. He was a recommendation from a contractor that we know and trust. Out of the three roofers that we spoke to and got quotes from, MKCS were the only ones who offered to put a temporary barrier over a leak in our roof the day they inspected. Everyone else simply noted the quarter sized hole and said they would fix it when they replaced the rest of our roof. Michael the owner was very nice and also much cheaper than the competition. They removed our old worn out roof and put on a new top of the line GAF roof in one day. They even replaced multiple decking boards because of rot caused by the damaged old roof. We couldn't be happier with both the quality of work and the customer service. Don't call the big name expensive guys when you can hire these guys who use the same products and can get it done cheaper and sooner. They are awesome! read more

They went above and beyond what we needed to fix our roof leak. Michael and Travis were quick to respond with any inquiries Their quote was very reasonable for the work. Would recommend 10/10 read more

There is nothing more important to me from a contractor than to tell me straight and do exactly what he says he will do. This is what you can expect from MK Construction Specialists. As an added value, he and his staff are courteous and very knowledgeable about their trades. I recommend MKCS! read more

We were selling our house and the buyer's inspector noticed what he thought was hail damage. Lucky came out the day after I called, took a quick look, and let me know that the damage was clearly the fault of our previous roofer and not the weather. I'm sure he could have charged me $1,000 for the repair, and I'd have been none the wiser. But instead he suggested that I ask the home builder to make the repair (which they agreed to). Class act. MK has definitely earned my trust and future business. read more

HI, MK Roofing just finished reroofing the 25 year old roof section under our deck. They recommended a commercial grade silicon sealant since it was a flat roof (slight grade) and would be covered by the deck. The silicon coating worked beautifully and we are very pleased with it since there was no debrie or waste that had to be discarded (i.e. they covered the old roof with the coating and it was substantially cheaper than standard reroofing. They did the job quickly and actually charged less than their original estimate. My husband and I highly recommend them. Jane read more

Michael and his crew are my "go to" roofing guys. I wont call anyone else. I have used him twice. Once for my personal roof at home and another time for commercial roofing at the shop that I manage. At my house, I thought I was due for a roof after several storms that had recently hit. Some of my neighbors had replaced their roofs and I only assumed mine was due to be replaced as well. Michael came out right away and assessed my roof and could easily have said, yes that a roof was needed, since I was going through my insurance anyway, but instead he informed me that it was still in good shape for the time being, but in a few years, it might be time. That kind of honesty and Integrity are a big deal to me. I will definitely be using his services when it is time actually replace the roof. I called him again when we needed a small roof job done for a heater we were installing at the shop. He was able to send one of his guys out immediately to look at what we needed and then was able to work around the schedule of the guy we had hanging the heater. The whole time, he and his guys were very good at communicating and got the job done quickly and done well. In both cases the professionalism and timeliness, along with honesty and integrity of he and his crew were second to none and is why I will only use and recommend MKCS Roofing from here on out. Thanks again to Michael and his guys. read more

The best experience I've ever had in dealing with roofers! My sister needed a whole new roof for her every old, old house. She had two rooms that leaked like a rain forest. She is also a somewhat vulnerable citizen. My wife and I stepped in to get a good solid roof over her head and we had to do this from a thousand miles away. I was able to make a trip to Texas and quickly arrange a meeting with Freetail Roofing. As I said, it's an old, old (pre-Civil War) house. Freetail inspected it inside and out and gave me three excellent options. We were put on their list and within a month they came to replace her roof. They finished the roof in just three days! But here is the difference between really good and beyond excellent -- my sister had broken her hip and was in a difficult state. The foreman, after finishing up for the first night, came to tell her they were done for the day. And then he asked her if there was anything he could do for her-- pick up something for her anything he could do that might help her. It was such a kind and decent offer. And made all the difference to my sister, who is as I said, dependent on the kindness of strangers. Yes, the roof looks beautiful -- the work is excellent. But, too, these are really decent and kind people. We love them. And can't sing their praises enough. read more

Michael was great - very professional and explained things clearly. He took time to visit and provide an estimate, and he also spent about an hour with an inspector from our insurance company. While we didn't move forward with the project this time (due to insurance reasons), I won't hesitate to call Michael when we're ready to work on the roof. read more

Michael came out when I had a water issue in my bathroom that a plumber had checked and suggested could be a small roof leak. He and Kendall, one of his employees, spent an hour and a half spraying water at every vent, weep hole, window casing, and crack in the mortar or flashing they cold find. They crawled into my attic, lay on my bathroom floor, and generally looked for leaks in any place that water could possibly be getting into my bathroom. That they didn't find a leak is not because they didn't look! Both Michael and Kendall were so kind and personable. They took the time to walk me through every step of what they did, as well as explain exactly what they had looked for and did (or didn't) find. I cannot possibly recommend them more highly. If you have any roof problem, call Michael and you will absolutely not be disappointed. read more

These guys are fantastic! Lucky Shaw responded lightning quick to my request for a repair and was in constant communication during the process. Price was more than fair and they got it done quickly. It's refreshing to work with honest contractors like MKCS, and I recommend them for any roofing repairs or if you need a new roof. A+. Thanks! read more

Michael and his crew fixed a ridge vent and installed soffits on a house we purchased last year after the seller refused to acknowledge that his builder had screwed up (hint: physics requires that soffits be present for a ridge vent to function correctly). They were professional, reasonably priced, and got the work done quickly. read more

Honest, professional and their quality is unmatched. After the Memorial Day floods, my roof was totaled, Michael and his guys worked with me while I dealt with insurance and were able to help me get a new roof on my home. I couldn't be more pleased with this company and would recommend them time and time again read more

Michael and Kendall are polite, respectful, knowledgeable and friendly. I was so pleased when they came out to inspect my roof and to figure out where the leak was coming from. They wasted no time, were thorough, and provided more than one solution to the problem. I feel they were fair and trustworthy, and I would work with them again. read more

Michael Kalish is a small business owner that was recommended to me for a roof repair inspection and estimate. I found him extremely responsive, patient, informative and reliable. His work was thorough and well documented with photos. Pricing was reasonable but more importantly he stands behind his work. Having had a number of less than optimum experiences with previous roofers, I am happy to have found MKCS and highly recommend this business. read more

Michael Kalish is a person of high honesty and integrity, both personally and professionally. He communicates well, is punctual, and if delayed, always calls in. In Austin it's not always possible to be exactly on time. His team recently completed some fine work on my roofline, and although there was one problem, it was taken care of immediately and with a smile. Highly recommended, read more

I had a small leak that was apparently caused by too many leaves caught in a valley of my roof. He told me he normally doesn't do small jobs unless he would be assured of doing a new roof in the future. He was also supposed to take pictures and send them to me with his recommendations for repair work. I never received the pictures or heard from him again. Based on the other good reviews I have to assume he was having a bad day. However, I won't contact them again. read more
