We had multiple companies provide bids for the replacement of our roof. Tim from Des Moines Area Roofing did the most thorough job during the bidding process. This included identifying existing ventilation issues and offering multiple solutions to correct the issues. He also pointed out issues with regard to how the siding on the house was becoming damaged because it was not installed correctly and was drawing moisture from the roof. Each of the other companies had note some subset of the issues and questions Tim had raised but none of the others noted the complete set. The bid provided by Tim was also extremely competitive with the other bids.
Based Tim’s thorough analysis during the bidding process and the reviews we read here on Angie’s List, we selected Des Moines Area Roofing to do the work and couldn’t be happier.
Tim and his entire crew were amazing. He said they could get the job done in one long day and they did. The crew started arriving a little after 7am. They were on the roof starting the tear off by 7:15am. Around 6:30pm that night all the shingles were in place and the cleanup was winding up. I’m pretty sure things were cleaner than when they got here and we haven’t found any nails or other debris. The roof looks great, we’ve had multiple rain and wind storms since the install and there haven’t been any issues.
With regard to the siding issues Tim identified during the bidding, Tim was very up front that his crew is great at roofing, but not necessarily carpenters or siding repair experts. I wanted everything done at one time and done right to address the specific concerns he had noted. Tim agreed to help find a carpenter that could do the work right and coordinate with his team so that we didn’t have people on the roof doing siding work right after the new roof was on. The carpenter got Tim an estimate and they bundled that into the overall estimate from Des Moines Area Roofing. The siding repair got done in tandem with the new roof on the same day.
Tim and his crew clearly take pride in doing great work. In addition to the great work, I’d have to say this was by far the smoothest major home improvement project we’ve had done in 25 years of home ownership.
