Solum used to be a respected roofing company around here, but after Jerry died they seem to have dried up.
I have called about 6 - 8 times to try & get an estimate.
They replaced the wooden shingles on the south side of my house in 2009, & now I will soon need the rest of the roof done (it's about 40 years old, & would have gone longer, but I didn't get oil on the shingles as often as I should have...).
I have been calling Solum since late April, & finally have given up.
Each call is about the same: "Oh, he's out, I'll have him call you." This from someone who answers the phone with "Hello.", no introduction or indication that it's a business at all. Same person, but never an apology, nor explanation as to why they don't return calls. (He's out? Does he have a cell phone??). Repeated messages left on their machine have likewise never been returned.
I've given up on Solum Roofing, & it's likely too late to get on a schedule with someone else this summer.
Two different contractors I've asked said they use Beeline (George Brue III).
I'll probably call Beeline for early next year.
