Aloha - My roof was showing its age at 28 years old, and I decided I needed a new roof before major problems set in that could cost me a fortune to fix. I'm a senior at 80 with a limited budget--living on Social Security and a small amount of savings--so I had to be very careful about choosing the right roofer. I called several companies for bids and was shocked at the prices. The highest was over $28,000 for a full tear-off and replacement. That was far beyond what I could afford to replace my roof. In my research I learned that Hawaii allows up to three layers of roofing, which meant I could add a second layer and avoid the costly tear-down. Unfortunately, many of the larger companies wouldn't even consider this 2nd layer option, so I kept searching. That's when I found Dave Bushnell with Right On Roofing. Dave is a small business owner who handles the roofing work himself, without the big overhead costs of truck fleets and crews to worry about. Dave understood my situation and agreed to install the second layer of roofing at a price I could manage. That included me paying for the materials directly so there was no extra profit mark up on materials like the big boys do. That was really great and saved me even more. After discussing my situation and my limited senior budget...Dave agreed to add the 2nd layer roofing for me at a very affordable price. Hiring Dave turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. Dave did a really great job and showed up on time every day, put in 10-hour days, and worked steadily until the new roof was done. He didn't cut corners, cleaned up thoroughly, and kept me informed throughout the process. I was extremely impressed with Dave's work effort and the quality of work he did. The new roof now looks beautiful, and I have peace of mind knowing my new roof is solid and well-done for many years to come. Dave is professional, honest, and takes pride in his work--qualities that are hard to find these days. I would highly recommend Dave Bushnell and Right On Roofing to anyone in need of a roof--especially seniors or anyone on a tight budget who still wants top-quality work. You'll be glad you called him. read more

Dave was great. he even came on weekends to get the job done. He was quite a bit cheaper than the other roofers I called. he had attention to detail and made sure all my skylights were flashed correctly. I highly recommend right on roofers ! Andrew Bryce read more

From my first contact with Dave, the owner of Right On Roofing, he was responsive and professional. Each question I had for him was answered quickly via text, or when needed, via email. While his correspondence and quote were less formal than the larger companies, he did what he said he was going to do. He gave me a list of references and I talked to three of them. Two had used him twice and all three were extremely favorable. His pricing was excellent compared to others I asked for quotes. This is mainly because he is a small, mostly one-man shop and I paid for the materials separately (which meant that he did not add on an additional profit margin). He does have a couple of helpers, but he does the majority of work on his own. This results in him taking a bit longer, but I was okay with the job taking about 7-8 days instead of 4 or so quoted by the larger companies. He arrived at 6:30-7:00 each morning and left at about 4:30. When he left, all the debris from the work he was doing was cleaned up. (I was super impressed by this). He worked Monday through Saturday with only Sunday off to rest. During the process, he seemed to be meticulous about doing things right and seemed very knowledgeable when I asked him about a couple of options such as drip edges which I opted for. I had to separately hire plumbers familiar with my solar hot water panels and while they were at my house for the disconnect and then reconnect, he worked with them to be sure everything was done right. Although I haven't climbed on top of my two-story house to see the results, the roof looks great from the street. I would highly recommend him and if I ever move and need to do another roofing jog, I will use him. Mahalo, Dave. read more
