Robert Gonsalves Roofing

He was very professional, did what he said he would do, came out when he said he would come out and did a great job.

Robert and his son Tony are absolutely amazing. They worked together on my project. Robert contacted me within minutes of my Angie's list search for help. I had 2 previous bad experiences with "roofers" who said they had this problem fixed. Robert was on site within a couple of hours and assessed the situation and put forth a series of likely causes. He is very experienced and completely explains everything. He gave me an estimate, a contract, and a commitment. He honored all aspects of the work. He and Tony found that the previous roofing job was not done as well as it should have been - step flashing was inadequate as was a valley area on the upper roof. Also, the dimensional shingles were not installed correctly allowing water to leak in between them - particularly during heavy downpours or snow melts. They had to remove the siding from the house to fix flashing and install the proper under-layers and shields that should have been done before. He pointed out the problems and explained them in great detail even getting me out on the roof with him at times to show me directly. He took lots of pictures and texted them to me all during the repair so I would see what was being done. They showed up exactly when they said the would and worked tirelessly in the cold to fix my problem. He didn't disparage the previous work done but humbly pointed out the deficiencies and how they contributed to the manifestation of the problems. They ended up having to re-shingle all of the north side of the first story of the house to insure all the problems were fixed. Robert and Tony stayed on my job until it was done. They knew how important it was to me to get the roof fixed as quickly as possible and came through big time! Amazing contractor and now, frankly, people I call friends. If you have roofing or other construction issues and truly want to find the best team to diagnose and handle most any such situation, you can not find a better team, IMHO. I felt the price was very fair considering the work and materials involved. Good work isn't cheap, but cheap work isn't good either! I HIGHLY recommend Robert Gonsalves Roofing!

<br /> As I said above, the roof was perfect. <br /> <br /> But more generally I would like to say that if you are looking for a general <br /> contractor who is a perfectionist, who *telephones* to say he is on his way, <br /> who has ingenious and artistic ideas, who can put in a magnificent hardwood <br /> floor, paint, do the best drywall repair you have ever seen, lay tile, secure <br /> your back porch to the rest of the house--an omission made by the original <br /> builder!--and come up with great ideas about how to convert your horrid <br /> bathroom and bedroom into a work of art, this is the person you want. He is <br /> *so* hardworking, so courteous, imaginative, experienced and so good at <br /> problem-solving that he is a pleasure to have around the house. <br /> <br /> His invoices were perfectly clear and thorough. If a project turned out to be <br /> more expensive that he had supposed, we would discuss it. (The original builder <br /> had taken a variety of unfortunate short cuts, as I say, so that behind the <br /> shower wall, for example, was soaking wet plywood, and that had to be dealt <br /> with and, very logically, that added to our price.) <br /> <br /> As a woman alone at home, I never worried that Bob would be inappropriate. (He <br /> was highly recommended to me by friends, so I knew his track record and had <br /> already seen his work.) Furthermore, he is extremely kind. I have a disability, <br /> and more than once he ran an errand for me and would have done more if I had <br /> let him. I never asked him for this kind of help, but he is very observant and <br /> could see what needed to be done. <br /> <br /> I see from the counter at the bottom of this page that I can still add 8273 <br /> more characters, but what would I write? I cannot imagine how you could do <br /> better for whatever project you might have, big or small, than to hire Bob <br /> Gonsalves. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
