Absolutely was the easiest process I have ever worked through. They communicated well, did a fine job, and were easy to get ahold of. A contractor that returned a call. What a pleasant surprise.

I expected better from a reputable company. They were booked out several months, but I wasnt in a big hurry. When we were negotiating prices, they made promises about things they would do for free, but when they started the job, they forgot about the extra stuff. They take a deposit at booking time, but dont give you a firm date when work will start. The project manager agreed that they wouldnt leave the dumpster in the middle of the driveway over the weekend so I could get my car into the garage but when Friday came the dumpster was still there. I had to call to get it removed. Once the work starts, they kept with it till the job was completed. They did a halfway job of cleaning up the site but didnt get the stuff that had fallen in the bushes or into the window wells. There are pieces of roofing sticking out from under the drip edges that werent completely cut off, leaving the job for me to do. Good thing that this roof will outlast me so I dont have to do it again. Advice for prospective buyers, get everything in writing down to the details if you can.

After reading a number of reviews on Skabelund Roofing, I don't understand why my experience was so poor. I guess I was expecting a similar experience as my neighbor, who had another roofing company replace their roof a couple of months earlier. Their roof, albeit a little bit smaller than mine, took two days, one to strip the existing roof and one to install the new roof (mine took a week). Each day, they left the home as clean and spotless as it was when they started. My neighbor told me that they didn't pick up so much as one nail or piece of a shingle. I had been referred to Martin Skabelund Roofing so when he called, I assumed he would do a similar job on my roof as the other company did on our neighbors roof. When removing our existing roof, shingles were thrown down, striking the exterior walls, railings, air conditioning condenser, sidewalks, driveway etc leaving tar marks all over. The worst wall (the west side of my garage) they did clean after we confronted them (we are still trying to get them cleaned off the other areas of our home). I sent a note to Skabelund which including photos of some of the damage for which I received a call from Marty who told me that I should expect those kind of things when getting a roof replaced. Why should I expect that kind of mess when I had seen a very professional job done on my neighbors roof. My wife and I worked around our home for a few hours three different days gathering nails, pieces of shingles and other debris from our lawn and landscaping beds as well as sweeping and eventually washing down our entire driveway in an attempt to clean up all the stuff left from their job. When I asked Marty how I was going to get the marks off my house and white railings he told me he didn't know and suggested I go purchase something from a local cleaning supply store. I also sent them photos of the oil stains left on my driveway from their equipment. Additionally, we have an awning over the rear deck of our home that on one end actually attaches to the roof. They made no attempt to replace the brown shingles, which didn't match the new grey shingles) under the awning. A photo of this issue was included in my original note to Skabelund but when Marty called to ask about the problem he told me that since I wasn't a roofer and couldn't speak in roofer terms he would come look at it. After he made an attempt to fix it he called me back and told me "it was the best he could do". I will try to post a photo so you can judge for yourself between what the very best Martin Skabelund could do and what I, (a non-roofer) did by myself (after I had to go purchase shingles as not a single extra was left). After they packed up and left, I sent an email to Skabelund, with photos, expressing my complete unhappiness with the experience I had with them and haven't heard a single word from them. Actually that's the bright spot in this experience because after the way my wife and I have been treated, I don't care to have anything to do with them. I dropped off the payment balance today and am finished with Skabelund Roofing. I truly hope you have a better experience than we did. I will try to include the photos I sent to Skabelund along with a few additional so you can judge for yourself. Additionally, today's date is Feb 6, 2024. I am adding the following to my original review. The flashing from the roof to my awning was apparently installed poorly as we have experienced leaks that were not there previously. Given our poor relationship with Marty Skabelund, we contacted the company that originally installed our awning and paid them to come correct the issues causing the leaks. While up on the roof working on replacing the flashing Skabelund roofing installed one of the workers that had previously worked on a roofing crew told us our roof had significant problems, After having three other prominent roofing companies evaluate our roof, we were told that brand new Skabelund roof had to be removed and replaced.
