Project went smooth. I was contacted quickly after posting about my leaky roof project. Henry was there in time, ladder ready. We climbed to inspect the roof. He came off as knowledgeable and understanding. He provided a couple of options to approach the repairs. Overall the repair went as smoothly. Terms were fair and any issues were handled by Henry I recommend hire them for your project.

We had a new roof put on just over three years ago. After our last rain we experienced two separate leaks. One was quite severe causing wall damage. We were unable to contact the contractor who did the work. Apparently the company is no longer in business. I contacted Angi to find someone to repair my roof. I contacted Essential Roofing and Construction. The initial project manager, Harry, was very polite as he was preparing to give me an estimate on the repairs. He explained that whoever had put the roof on cut several corners while putting on our new roof. When he pointed out the shortcuts that were take I was sick. He explained how they would correct these shortcuts to make the roof waterproof. On the day the work began, a supervisor came out and got on the roof and pointed out a serious issue on the flat surface of my roof. I needed my roof fixed and Harry and Vic made sure that I knew exactly what they were going to do. The job was finished in a day with the workers keeping my

It was the greatest experience working with Essential Builders INC. I can proudly say how happy I am to have trusted Essential Builders with my home. Working and negotiating with David T was a breeze. He was very reliable, knowledgeable, helpful and most importantly, trustworthy. I was delivered everything that was promised. Considering the fact that it is so difficult to trust anyone with your most valuable asset, your home, I am relieved to have such professional work that was completed in a timely manner with the Essential Builders Inc team. Thank you! Will be a proud returning customer again in the future!

Essential was good to work with. They were not the lowest bid. However, we felt comfortable with Essential. They worked hard. Were always on time. We believe they did a good job. Time will tell.
