R Factor of the North is an excellent roofing contractor. We had shopped several different roofers…read moreand R Factor provided the best quote for the roofing material and services to be provided. They came highly recommended by our now-retired remodeling contractor who has done several projects for us. He still uses R Factor for his own buildings. The on-site crew was excellent. They cleaned up the property every evening before they left for the day and I never found so much as a nail after they left (it helps that they use a big rolling magnet). The crew would take time to explain to us what they were doing and what was wrong with the current roof (part of one roof had dimensional shingles that had been installed in the wrong pattern). Another part of the structure had sheathing boards that were over 100 years old; some boards had damage that they quickly fixed at no extra cost. They also made sure that my weather station and weather vane were reinstalled in the proper orientation. If they left at the end of the day and a section of roof wasn't completed, they would tarp the unfinished section to avoid any damage if rain should occur, even when precipitation wasn't forecast. In all fairness, three of the four workers were the offspring of the company owners, so they knew their family reputation was at stake. The owners were excellent, also. Ted and Trisha were very good at explaining what needed to be done and in helping pick appropriate colors. Before the project started we decided to change the drip edge color; Ted made a special trip out with samples to make sure we had the proper color. There was good communication throughout the project. We had a quick response for our request for a bid. If we had questions and they were not immediately available, they would return our call promptly. I highly recommend R Factor of the North and would definitely use them for future projects. Finally, if you are concerned about some of the older, negative reviews on other sites, know that those reviews reflect the previous owner. Ted and Trisha purchased the business in January 2022; reviews before that date should be taken with a grain of salt.

I am so impressed with R-Factor of the North. They completed my roof ahead of schedule, everything…read morewas cleaned up beautifully, and the communication and follow-up has been incredible. Extremely professional and very caring. Highly recommend.

I tried for months to get an insulation company to respond for a quote. I was ignored and ghosted…read moreby several companies in and around Muskegon. I finally reached out to MK Insulating hoping they'd respond. The owner, Mike, responded within minutes and provided an on site estimate within days. His team completed the project within a week of the initial contact. Mike communicates clearly and explains the best options and recommendations. There was no confusion on what I needed. The job was completed on time and they left my house as clean as they found it. The team was respectful and professional. I highly recommend MK Insulating.
