Homeownership is hard. It comes with decisions. BIG ONES. Decisions that are not only costly, but…read morecomplex. Making the wrong decision on a contractor can not only cost you monetarily, but can have a heavy price if the work is done cheaply or by cutting corners. This being said, roofing contractors have gotten a bad name over the last decade or so due to the prevalence of "storm chasers", or contractors that travel around, quick to promise new roofing and exteriors fully paid for by insurance and without a cost to the homeowner. There are contractors who lack integrity and honesty, and will pull any string available to get you to sign for subpar workmanship and materials, while you pay the premium. Enter Responsive Roofing. My first encounter with Ron was several years ago, when I had been in my home for a few years. At the time, I was worried about the age of my roof and had called his company to come inspect it. To my surprise, Ron told me that while my roof was older, it still had some time on it and that he would suggest coming back in the next 3-5 years to check again. I've gotta admit, I was impressed, if not a little shocked. He didn't try to use fear tactics, or sell me on something I didn't need. He spoke honestly, and gave me an understanding of the true situation and timeline I was looking at. As you can guess, this left an impression on me. Fast forward to summer of 2025. Remembering my encounter with Ron several years back, I again called him to inspect my roof and give me his fair opinion. He of course did exactly that. It was time to move forward with our project. We decided to add on improved shingles and venting, new gutters, and some Hardie Board siding to replace wood paneling that was deteriorated on the front of our house. Such a large purchase is nerve wracking, to say the least. But I cannot stress enough how absolutely ACCURATE the name of this business is. "Responsive Roofing" is not just a name. It encompasses every aspect of how Ron runs his business. From promptly answering every possible question I could have, to providing estimates and brainstorming solutions for what we wanted to accomplish, I could not be more impressed. His crews were friendly and polite, and left not a trace that they were here each day. Ron was on the job site, and was so proactive in protecting our landscaping and house exterior so that we never had to worry that something would go wrong. The finished work (see pictures) was impeccable. Every detail was perfect, and the value of our home and increase in curb appeal was everything we could have wanted in this project. Lastly, I learned SO much from Ron. It is evident that it is important to him to make sure his clients understand exactly what they are purchasing, as well as the function of each part. At no part in this process did I stress that I had made the wrong decision because Ron's responsiveness and attention to detail was so strong that I never needed to. Today, as I admire my home every time I pull into the driveway, I am so thankful that I chose Responsive Roofing. I sincerely hope that anyone in need of roofing, siding, or exterior work will consider them as well. You won't regret it!

He installed electrical outlets and they seem to be working well. He also wall mounted a TV That…read morewas initially too high and he came back and adjusted the height free of charge. However, it is just one person and the TV weighs 75 pounds so I offered to help. 3 hdmi cables ripped most likely when Tv was taken off wall so holes could be re-drilled. I should have removed the cables before he came by to fix but didn't and I'm not sure if I helped him take the Tv down the second time or not but I may have. He hesitently strung new hdmi cables (mine) back through the wall but when I tested the ports later one was damaged. Regardless, from the moment we started the process earlier that day I said my main priority was getting my Tv mounted safely. He then blamed me for wanting to help (I didn't but he came alone and I was worried about the TV) and said he "didn't want to step on my toes" and ask me to remove the cables. That's either a lie or a very risky way to do business. My tv could've been rendered unusable. Yes it was our mistake but one that shouldn't have been made. Fortunatly for now it seems like it's only 25% less useable but he blamed me and offered no compensation. I also noticed my stand alone freezer he unplugged was not plugged back in so about $100 in food was wasted as well. So I would not recommend him and would go with a different company that is less likely to make mistakes and more likely to own up to them if they do make them.

He understood clearly how I wanted the wiring done and switches placed. He did an impeccable job on this very difficult project. I am very impressed and would recommend him without reservation.
