Renaissance Roofing

I want to share a very positive experience about Renaissance Roofing I needed a slate roof installed on our guesthouse First, the roofer, Jesse, had to remove the existing shingles and copper valleys, peak and bathroom vents and remove the gutters (which are made of wood) That can be a problem for a homeowner due to nails which might not be captured which end up in the lawn adjacent to the house No problem there The work was done very neatlyThe roofing was removed without any residue (nails) left on the ground Next, underlay must be installed and peaks, valleys and bathroom vents had to be duplicated Again, no problem with any of that The new metal looks great and, as I watched it being installed, I could see that it was done exactly as it should be done Then the shingles had to be installed We agreed that recovered roof shingles from a barn roof in VT would be best to useThey are thicker than we could buy new and they are the color I wanted In addition, they have a patina to them which looks far better than if the slates were all identical Finally, they replaced the gutters It was an outstanding job I would recommend Jesse to anyone and certainly would hire him again myself I could not be happier with the roof -- or the roofers, who were very easy to work with Keep in mind that I work with slate daily carving letters I am VERY fussy about quality of workmanship So, I have an appreciation for slate work which is done right

I want to share a very positive experience about Renaissance Roofing.

I needed a slate roof installed on our guesthouse. First, the roofer, Jesse, had to remove the existing shingles and copper valleys, peak and bathroom vents and remove the gutters (which are made of wood). That can be a problem for a homeowner due to nails which might not be captured which end up in the lawn adjacent to the house. No problem there. The work was done very neatly. The roofing was removed without any residue (nails) left on the ground. Next, underlay must be installed and peaks, valleys and bathroom vents had to be duplicated. Again, no problem with any of that. The new metal looks great and, as I watched it being installed, I could see that it was done exactly as it should be done. Then the shingles had to be installed. We agreed that recovered roof shingles from a barn roof in VT would be best to use. They are thicker than we could buy new and they are the color I wanted. In addition, they have a patina to them which looks far better than if the slates were all identical. Finally, they replaced the gutters.

It was an outstanding job. I would recommend Jesse to anyone and certainly would hire him again myself. I could not be happier with the roof -- or the roofers, who were very easy to work with. Keep in mind that I work with slate daily carving letters. I am VERY fussy about quality of workmanship. So, I have an appreciation for slate work which is done right.
