Bell Roofing

So far, not impressed at all.
Just had my appointment cancelled last minute, called that number back to try to reschedule, and was told ""I'm just an answering service, try the office."" Called another number I found listed, and got the same guy who decided that was a good time to be rude to me. Still had not gotten any information about when I could reschedule, so I called the ""office"" back again, got the same guy all over again, who was just as ""helpful"" as the last two times.
They might do good work, but I wouldn't know. Not giving them the chance to after this.

This morning Michael came to inspect my roof to check if I needed any flashings. He was friendly, professional and so HONEST! I do not know much about flashings, so he could have told me just about anything, but he was extremely honest and said the roof was in excellent condition and that ""adding any flashings would be a waste of money"" If ever I have roof problems in the future or know of anyone who does, this is the only company I will call. I highly recommend Bell Roofing and appreciate Michael's integrity.

Bell was courteous and fast, they walked me through all the options and we replaced my roof, it was a great experience.

Working with Bell Roofing was a complete fiasco. They have questionable business practices, were unprofessional, and cost me more money and stress than necessary. The work will be completed by another company. I do NOT recommend.

Used Bell again for a full roof replacement. There was a delay getting the job done due to weather, but that certainly wasn't the company's fault! Took nearly 2 days to complete, but they finished just as a huge storm came in. Now that's what I call good timing!!

It has been a rainy month and I had a roof leak and other issues. I called Bell and spoke with Daris, he was courteous and immediately scheduled someone to come out and inspect my roof the next day and give me an estimate.
Due to scheduling conflicts and the leak, it was critical to get the job done asap. Tracy and Todd worked together to schedule my job between the rainy days and to fit me in immediately to prevent further damage to my roof as we were expecting several days of rain.
The crew arrived on time, actually to the minute at 7AM on a Saturday. The crew was led by ""Chalino"". They all worked hard to complete the job in a timely fashion and cleaned up well.They roof is beautiful.

From the sales department,office help,Owner Ricardo,vendors,roofers everything was like clock work which made the process of getting our new roof a very pleasant one!

Please note that Bell Roofing has been sold to another gentleman and it's not the same company it once was, in my opinion. Do not let them sell you services outside of roofing because Bell Roofing subcontracts to other companies for things like gutter replacement.

The gutter guys attempted to replace my gutters on rotten and unpainted facia boards and if I hadn't been there, I would've never known.

Because of this, I met with the owner of Bell Roofing he didn't seem to even understand all that was going to be done to my house by Bell Roofing and this did not instill any confidence from me about them or their services.

When I told the owner of Bell Roofing that the gutter guys tried to put gutters on the rotten facia boards, he actually admitted that the gutters are subcontracted and they just want to get the work done. Really?

This really did not make me happy, because he really didn't care.

Long review, I know, but worth reading by anyone considering Bell Roofing.

We live in a row of town houses, and have a problem with water leaking into our attic where the roof meets the firewall between our house and the ones on either side. I contacted three companies for estimates to fix the leaks and install a new roof, and selected Bell because their Representative was very thorough and helpful.

During the inspection of our home prior to the preparing the quotation, I took the Rep into the attic to see where water is entering, and also to some adjacent townhouses to show him how metal covers had been installed over the firewalls to correct the same problem. While the attic leaks were our main concern, we decided to go ahead and install a new roof for additional assurance that the repairs to the attic leaks would be effective.

A contract was signed, and a Supervisor came to the house the day before installation to confirm everything was ready to begin. He assured us there would be no need for the roofers to come into the house.

Our problems began as soon as the roofing crew showed up the next morning. A few minutes after they arrived, the owner of the company called to tell us they wanted an additional $500 above the agreed-to contract price before they would begin. The reason given was that the roof was steeper that normal. This was hard to accept, since their Rep had measured the roof angle as part of his pre-quote survey.

Ordinarily, I would have cancelled the job at this point, but knew from reading the contract that the costs associated with cancellation were more than I wanted to lose. I reluctantly agreed, a decision I would soon regret.

The owner then told me they would need to dump roof debris onto our back deck, and haul it through our living room to the front door. For the next three days, our front and back doors were left open, as roofers hauled debris through our house and came in to use our bathroom.

We are one of 20 identical townhouses, all of which have had roofs replaced at least once (this was our second). In none of the previous installations over the past 24 years did a roofing company find it necessary to haul debris through the house.

As the old roof was removed, no attempt was made to drop shingles into the dumpster. They were allowed to fall straight down onto whatever was below, including our neighbor's driveway and outdoor deck, our shrubbery, our front porch, and our driveway, I was hit twice by falling debris while leaving by the front door, which I had to do frequently to pick up nails from our neighbor's driveway. I cannot imagine how a roof job could be any messier, or more intrusive for the homeowners.

Damage to our property included holes punched through an upstairs bedroom ceiling, paint scraped down to bare metal on the front porch railings, black marks from falling shingles on the house exterior and driveway, and four newly installed plants flattened under falling shingles.

Although Bell said the roofers would come back and take care of the damage to the property, I went ahead and arranged for all the repairs myself as I had no idea how good the roofers would be at repairing sheetrock, refinishing porch railings, interior and exterior painting, and so on. Although Bell paid for a few of the materials, such as sheetrock mud and paint for repairing and re-painting the bedroom ceiling, we incurred a fair amount of out-of-pocket expenses ourselves, including $385 to replace four plants damaged by falling debris.

As I informed Bell at the time the job was completed, we felt the roofers did a very good job installing the roof itself, and we were thus inclined to overlook all the problems associated with falling debris, and workers coming and going through our house for three days. We were just happy to finally have them out of the house. It was not until it rained some days later that we found water flowing down the attic wall, same as before.

When I contacted Bell about the leaks, I was told they had not covered the firewalls because they do not work with metal. Huh? I am an Engineer, and had they let me know this beforehand, or while the job was in progress, I could have shown them a number of ways the make the repair without using metal.

Looking back, I feel foolish for allowing Bell to scam us out of the $500, for totally disrupting of our home for their convenience, and for leaving me with hundreds of dollars in expenses for repairs and plant replacement. We have a new roof, but are back where we started with the leaks in the attic.

My roof sprung a leak and I needed repairs quick and I turned to Yelp to find me a reliable and proven roofer. If you did not know, Yelp does a good job of connecting you with providers that will respond and quote for services quickly. As such, I found Bell Roofing.

Out the few estimates I have received, Bell Roofing provided the lowest estimate for the same job as the other roofing companies would. I am also happy with Bell, because they were the first to come out and inspect the roof and give me a quote.

Everything was professional. Their back office kept fantastic communication with me and I never once felt that I was just a number in their list of customers. Always prompt and courteous responses.

The repairs was conducted over 2 visit and they also took pictures of the repairs for me. I needed pictures to work with my insurance; the pictures provided was very helpful.

Overall , a positive experience indeed
