This company put on a new roof for me not too. Long ago. While the roof turned out OK, my complaint is that they required money EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. One day they even required two payments on the same day. I don't know what kind of outfit this is, but if they don't have enough cash flow to require some money at the beginning of the job and the rest at the end, it doesn't give me a lot of confidence.
Folks. Reliable Roofing In Oakland/Alameda closed down in 2016. Father and son both retired. If anyone is using the name, It’s isn’t us.✌️🤘
Requested a full roof replacement and insulation install. The project manager Argo was prompt, meeting my wife and I on our lunch break to give us a quote. Reasonably priced, for the size of the project. From there work started almost immediately and progressed quickly, with each major stage of the project being completed in 1-2 days. Argo stayed in touch with us the whole time and was very accessable. The work was completed entirely in less than 2 weeks. Good clean work, I would use them again if I had another similar project.
Yes, we decided not to go with this company as we didn't appreciate the 15k over average exaggerated quote. They didn't even leave the quote or cost outline with us to review they wrote the number in a yellow notepad and showed it to us while they were on the phone with their boss. I also didn't appreciate their pressure tactics claiming to call all their "bosses" to get a "good deal". They even asked us to make stuff up to get good deals, for example they were like “let’s just tell my boss your parents are living here so they can give you some discount. They even tried to say they would “add us to an existing job” to try and get us a sooner start date. Overall they wasted my time and tried to overcharge us. The appointment was supposed to be 1 hour it was an hour and a half. This was much longer than any of the other quotes I requested and they were 15k over the next highest quote and trust me I shopped around and got 10+ quotes. Pretty much chose them if you want to overpay and you want someone to waste all your time.
There are better roofing companies out there.
