    Garbage swept into the floor (ceiling of the level below)

    When I originally chose this company, it was because of a 5 star rating. Had I waited to see the first 1-star, I might have thought again. As with the response to one of the poor ratings, the owner will blame any issue they have on you. Originally, I thought the owner seemed like a pretty nice guy. And the foreman, an even nicer guy. I realize now that is just part of making the sale. It's hard to get me to leave bad reviews but they managed to get it out of me. I chose them because the prices were reasonable and I assumed they cared about their yelp ratings. This turned out not to be the case. Job #1 We did two projects. The first was a demo. I made a garage available to have all the garbage go out together. They were to have a garbage man come on the last day to remove the rubbish. Despite discussing this, the owner pushed for a dumpster. I refused and stuck to the agreement. During the demo, I realized that one of my cameras stopped working. I called the company and explained. The owner first tried to convince me that it might have went out for some other reason. After double checking the time it went out and him asking his foreman, we learned that the cable had been cut. After realizing that it would cost more to fix it, he agreed deduct the cost of a new one from the balance I owed. I ordered and installed it myself but I wasn't upset about that... Oh and they used my tools and finished my roll of contractor bags without warning. They purchased new bags though and left my tools. Job #2 I tried them again for the rebuild project and was originally told that I needed 17 out of 26 beams replaced. When I finally got the beams (which was a headache in itself) I was told that I actually needed 26 beams. After more months of waiting for the proper size, I finally got the guys back. Then I learned I needed to place a special order to affix the beams. Carlos kept insisting on taking a structural shortcut but I refused. I asked that he order the proper supplies and add them to the balance as discussed. Days later I get a call from the supply company asking me if I want to order the supplies. I had just told him to order them days before! He tried again to convince me to take the shortcut again when I told him he was supposed to place the order. Days later, he still hadn't ordered the supplies. After about a month of checking with him, he told me the supplies were in. He basically told me he could only work weekends, which I had explained from the first job, wasn't going to happen. He continued to ask to work weekends. I continued to refuse. It was still warm when we started, so the fact that they disconnected the chimney ducts, wasn't terrible. Within a few weeks, it was cold! I asked that they come back to at least fix the ducts but he assured me he was too busy. A month after saying the parts were in, he finally came back. But before doing so, he asked for the remaining balance. Had I been that naive, I would've been even more upset when he decided to take another job, pausing mine for a few more days because I don't want anyone working on weekends. During this job he once again started to try to force the idea of using a dumpster, although we agreed not to. I finally broke. Luckily the foreman talked him out of it. I tried to allow them to do what they are supposed to be good at without micromanaging... big mistake. At the end, I started to see the shortcuts that were being taken... Large gaps between the bricks, gaps between the beams, garbage hidden, they even left my electric panels propped up, instead of securing and didn't fix the vents. I addressed these things as the crew were walking out. The foreman secured the panels, used my shims and some scrap wood to fill some of the gaps (I learned of more later but they claimed it is properly installed).They cleaned some more of the garbage up (after they left I found another place debris was swept and left). They left most of the brick gaps though. One of the main tools they needed, they did not bring. They won't get it either, instead they'll bootleg a way to get it done. Luckily I have some tools. They finished my garbage bags again. This time, nobody purchased another roll. They also over ordered the supplies, most of which they said they could not return. So I'm stuck with hundreds of dollars worth of useless construction supplies. To make everything worse, as I prepare for the next phase, I realized that they didn't follow the floor plans correctly. Almost two feet of my important active space has been cut off. If they weren't coming back for the garbage they left, there's no way they are coming back to correct a major mistake.

    My ~20-year-old roof was sagging in the rear of the building and had a small leak in the front…read more The previous roof was clearly not installed by a professional (the openings were not properly flashed and there were no curbs beneath the skylights causing them to sit flush with the existing roof layer). I had been patching the problem areas myself for the last 10 years to keep it going. It was in good shape in the flat areas, well-draining areas, since a reflective coating was applied many years ago, but the joints and roof openings required annual observation/repair. Since it had many layers from the past (current code requires a limit of two layers, before a full tear-off is needed), was leaking, and noticeably sagging in the rear of the building due to some structural issue, I decided to do a full tear-off and replacement. It was difficult to find a company that did not want to just add another layer, but after talking to many contractors, I obtained 4 quotes for a full tear-off and rebuild. Verrazano's quote was near the lower end of the batch. I was impressed with the fact that during the initial visit, they were the only contractor that did not suggest a new layer. He suggested either an inexpensive spot repair to keep the existing roof going, or a full tear-off and rebuild to address the previous improper installation and the sagging section, which he said was likely due to a broken joist (a common problem in flat roofs on older homes). Two weeks later, they showed up on time (8 am), as planned, and completely removed the old layers and installed foam board insulation and the underlayer in one day. All debris was sent down a conveyor attached to the front of the house. I had concerns about debris removal since during recent roof tear-offs on my block I've seen debris either thrown off the roof into the courtyard below, or carried through the house. I found neither of those options acceptable for my work. On the second day, they added the final roof layer, re-installed two existing skylights, removed a sagging rear fascia and replaced it with a new gutter, properly flashed all openings and completely cleaned up. All of the workers were respectful and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to refer them for any job, large or small.

    The first heavy storm after our roof replacement happened sooner than I would have preferred, but…read moreit ended up being a good test. The new roof handled it without any water entering the building. Before replacement, the surface had blisters, cracked seams, and several areas that held water. We reviewed repair and replacement options, and the condition of the insulation made replacement the more sensible choice. The old layers were removed down to the wood deck. Most of the wood was sound, although several boards near the front parapet needed to be replaced. A self-adhered modified-bitumen system was installed over new insulation and a cover board. The chimney flashing, plumbing vents, and roof hatch were all completed individually. Additional taper was used near the rear drain to improve water flow. The Royal Renovators Inc. crew protected the front planting area and used the rear access for debris. We found a few scraps of membrane near the neighboring fence after completion, but they returned and picked them up the next morning. The final documents included photos, material information, and the written warranty. Months later, the roof is still draining well and the interior stains have not returned.

    The roof on one my buildings had reached the point where the frequency of repairs were becoming…read more.. exponentially more frequent. So, it was time -- full roof replacement. Since the building is both commercial and residiential, one of the biggest concerns was minimizing disruption to tenants, and of course keeping everything on budget and organized. From the start, Royal Renovators seemed to understand these concerns and put together a plan that worked around the building's daily operations. The existing roof was removed, damaged areas were addressed/fized, and a new roofing system was installed along with snazzy updated flashing and drainage improvements. Communication throughout the project was - chefs kiss - and we always knew what stage things were in. As expected, there were additional conditions unconvered that needed to be addressed. But, these guys were transparent about it, laid out the options like they did before, and it didnt turn into pressure or surprises. What stood out was how transparent they were when additional conditions were uncovered. Every decision was discussed beforehand and documented with photos. In the end, the new roof was completed on time, and is performing exactly as expected.

    I called Bill after closing on a 1940s house with a questionable roof history that clearly needed…read moresome attention. Just from speaking with him, I could tell right away that he was extremely knowledgeable. He even pointed out that my roof hatch was very high quality, which gave me confidence that he really knew what he was looking at. A few days later, Bill showed up personally, walked the entire roof, and gave me a thorough assessment. A few days after that, after one full day of work, I had a pristine, repaired roof that looked fantastic. The price was very reasonable, especially considering the quality of workmanship I received. I would gladly pay it again for the peace of mind and quality of the work. He even went above and beyond and sawed off a lock the prior owner left on the hatch that we only found out when Bill attempted to open and the keys didn't work. If you need roof work done, Bill is your one-stop shop. Just call him -- you won't be disappointed.

    I can't say enough good things about Bill White Roofing! Their customer service was absolutely…read moreamazing. They came out the same day, went up on the roof, and quickly identified a small hole that two other companies completely missed. Both of those companies quoted me around $2,500, saying I would need to remove fascia and gutters--without even inspecting the roof properly. Bill White Roofing was honest, straightforward, and saved me from unnecessary work and costs. It's so refreshing to deal with people who truly care about doing the right thing. I will absolutely be referring them to all of my neighbors and will continue to call them for any roofing needs in the future.

They measured the roof while I was there, opened two areas to check for moisture, and showed me why another coating would not solve the problem. The replacement took four days and included removing the old material, correcting the slope near the drain, and rebuilding the hatch area. I received photos most evenings without having to request them. The dumpster pickup was late and cost us a parking space through the weekend.

Test openings found damp insulation beneath several older repair areas, indicating that the moisture had traveled farther than the visible stain suggested. The owner compared removing only the wet sections with replacing the complete roof. Because the existing modified-bitumen system was heavily patched and approaching the end of its service life, full replacement was selected. NY Roofing removed the old roof to the deck, deteriorated material around the hatch was replaced, and tapered insulation was added to improve movement toward the rear drain. A new two-ply modified-bitumen system was installed with fresh wall flashing and metal edges. Materials were lifted from the street during a restricted delivery window, while the neighboring roof and occupied rooms below received additional protection. The finished surface had a consistent slope instead of the shallow depressions that had formed around earlier patches. Following several rainstorms and one freeze-thaw cycle, the bedroom ceiling remained unchanged.
