    These guys were amazing! My husband and I were so impressed by how well-organized, professional, and considerate they were. Several friends of mine have had really terrible experiences with other roofers, so I was a bit worried about the stress of doing this the week of Christmas, but Scott, our Project Manager was really easy to work with and made the whole experience completely painless. He also noticed we had dogs and created a special path for them to take them in and out of the house withou... Read more

    I have had the pleasure of working with Ruff Roofers as an architect for over 40 years, and this recent installation of a new roof and skylights on my son's house was no exception. Excellent and timely installation, attention to detail, and responsive communication were all a factor in making this project a success. I highly recommend them for any size or type of roofing project!

    We experienced a house fire and from the time that Emmett arrived to provide us an estimate to the time that Scott and Papa completed the job, it was top notch.

    We had Ruff Roofers install new roof in 2013. When we decided to move in 2019, we had a few concerns after inspection. Ruff Roofers came out within 2 days and fixed all issues and gave a detailed report non issues as well. Highly recommend!

    A pleasure to work with from start to finish. Very responsive and was able to fit me in early, due to a cancellation. The workers were very respectful of my time and left the property in better shape than they found it. They also found a few additional (minor) issues and corrected them for free while fixing the pipe collar. A+ will definitely use again.
