    Unfortunately, I can't discuss the quality of their work since I was not able to hire them. They…read moreare a local business and I had a very reasonable bid from them for my roof. After a positive phone conversation, they discussed coming to my house that day to pick out shingles. No phone calls or emails, they simply did not show up. We tried calling them several times to no avail. Left messages and did not get them returned. I went on their website and explained my frustration because I wanted to give them an opportunity to respond. I received a response and an apology saying it was due to a wedding in the family. Although I didn't think a professional business not contacting a customer to reschedule is absolutely unprofessional, we still gave them a second chance. Needless to say, they still did not return our phone call and it has been over 4 days now. We went with Drury Brothers Roofing who responded right away, was at our house and has the roof already on a schedule to be repaired.

    We have an awkward roof. It was piece-mealed together by the original owner of our house. We got…read moreseveral bids to fix it and went with Laramie Valley Contracting mostly becsuse Arsenio offered us the best price. I'd say "You get what you pay for" but, even then, we overpaid. They did end up replacing the shingles and several pieces of rotten plywood. But, on the edges, the metal flashing was just put back on rotten fascia. They didn't give us the option of having it replaced. We wanted them to come back and put gutters on but, like other reviewers have said...we gave up because he never called back to schedule. Our new shingles made it through one winter with no leaking. This winter, it is leaking again worse than it was before they "fixed" it. And, it's past the guarantee period. When I reached out to talk over the issue, I got a return call from a nice lady who couldn't give me any information. My recommendation: pay a little extra to get the job done right and has a longer guarantee period AND is more responsive. I do not recommend this company.

    September-October 2023. We did not have a positive experience with Laramie Valley Contracting and…read moreRoofing - delays, a no-show for the promised start date with no effort to contact us, lots of phone calls to get information, a trailer left in our driveway for days after the work was done, and the wrong color shingles on the roof. The company was prompt in collecting payment. On a positive note, the workers who did the roof and cleanup were good and effective, at least we hope so. It wasn't worth the aggravation.

Excellent quality work from this long time local company and impeccable integrity. If the whole world ran the way Capitol Roofing runs, the world would be a perfect place.

    I chose to use Capitol Roofing (CR) because I wanted a local company who had good reviews to…read moreperform my roof, guttering, and awning repairs that was damaged by hail. My initial experience was great with them. First estimate was on Oct 26, 2016. However, it took until Feb to get CR and my insurance company aligned on what needed to be done, type of shingles, etc. CR could not match the guttering color so I was required to pick a new color and had to put a down payment of $10,000. Once that was settled an install date of July 24 was given by CR. I took the day off work so we could discuss my expectation and clean up. I have two young daughters and a puppy so I wanted to make sure the backyard was kept free of nails and shingles at the end of each day so that it would not be a danger to my kids. On July 24, no one had showed up by 10am so I called the office to see when to expect them. They stated they were behind on schedule due to the snow storms in late May and were about 6 weeks out from starting on my house. They rescheduled the install date to the first week of September. Again, I took the day off work for the same reasons above and 10am came and no one was at my house. So I called the company again and was told 32 houses were ahead of me and they could not guarantee me a start time. I requested my $10,000 deposit back and politely asked that the company and I go our separate ways. However, I was told that the contract stated that a fee would be assessed for any canceled contracts which it did. But since Capitol Roofing was not fulfilling their install portion of the contract on dates THEY scheduled, I asked to see proof of expenses to justify the $1500 they wanted for the canceled contract. They admitted that shingles had not even been purchased yet for my property but stated the $1500 would cover the initial estimate expenses that they originally and publically advertised as FREE. Like most people I can't take a $1500 penalty and agreed to stay with the company. The second week of September my shingles arrived without notice and stayed on the roof until a group of subcontractors showed up on September 30 also without notice. One of the reasons I went with CR is because they are a member of the Cheyenne Roofing Alliance which I assumed based on their commercials was to bring local contractors together to keep roofing projects local and support the Cheyenne economy/jobs. However, the subcontracted company CR chose was out of Scottsbluff, NE....hardly local. Roofing was complete with satisfactory results, however trash, old shingles, and roofing nails were left in my bushes, front and back yard, and driveway. On October 8, the guttering company CR subcontracted showed up once again with no notice. Immediately they recognized CR work order did not include down spouts. This meant if the work would continue as expected I would have dark brown guttering and light blue downspouts. The subcontractors told me someone from CR was coming out to talk to me about it, but was then told 15 minutes later they had worked it out. Next business day received a voicemail that downspouts would be added as an additional expense to my contract. Yes, that's without an initial estimate, without me signing or agreeing to any amount. On October 10, I called to remedy the situation was put on hold until it automatically transferred to Liz's voice machine. Received no call back, but when I called back 30 minutes later Cody said CR made a mistake and would eat the costs of the downspouts. Finally in December, the awning subcontractor showed up to repair the awning. They were a great group of guys and promptly removed the awning, but immediately recognized that the new awning was not the right size, did not have the right fasteners, and was incredibly flimsy. After about 3 weeks of ordering various parts for the awning the got it installed.
