Kimoto Roofing

After researching and reviewing comments on Yelp, I decided to contact Kimoto Roofing to check on my roof after detecting a wet spot in my home. I left my contact email and received a prompt response from Rob, the owner of the company. We set up an appointment and Rob arrived promptly and did a scope of my roof. At the end of the appointment, Rob said he'll contact me in 48 hours with an estimate. After four days, I still haven't heard from him. I sent a text and an email and still received no reply from him. Where is the basic courtesy of notifying the customer if you can't or won't do the work? What a waste of time for both of us. As so often happens in Hawaii where businesses seem not to care because they seem to be insulated from major competition. I am sure what Kimoto Roofing lacks another business will be able to do the job.

My roof had been leaking for over a year. It would only occur after a heavy rain accompanied by strong winds. It would be just a trickle. The company that installed my roof came twice & suggested that I just place newspaper on the floor when I left home for long periods.
In December of 2019 & January of 2020 frequent rain caused the leak to occur more often. I called several companies who did not even return my call. After seeing his great review on Yelp I called Rob Kimoto who answered the phone immediately. He came on a Sunday (in pouring rain) a day after I called to examine my roof. An estimate was provided shortly thereafter and work completed in less than a week. His work is great & cleans up any debris meticulously after completing his work. I believe his pricing to be very reasonable
Can't tell you how much I appreciated his awesome service. I'll now sleep well in the heaviest of rains.
Mahalo Rob Kimoto. You are awesome!

We had an intermittent, tricky leak in our roof for which we called other roofers to look at over the years through just the last couple of weeks. This time around, we knew we weren't going to easily get anyone in to look at it because it's been raining so much. Still, we didn't expect that these other guys would say yes to coming over then never show up.

Enter Rob of Kimoto Roofing. He said he'd come over to take a look the morning I contacted him, and he did! Rob is a really great guy, very easy to talk to, and conscientious. We explained that the leak has never really been diagnosed completely and that even after all the ""fixes"" over the years, it still isn't exactly dry. Rob got up on the roof with a water hose, and after two tests, he found out exactly where the problem was. Finally! And now, we have the driest ceiling we've had in a while. Such a nice, clean job too. Thanks so much, Rob!!!

Contacted Rob via Yelp. He responded quickly and setup a time to come and look at our roof. We had a leak that would only appear during heavy rains. Rob was able to diagnose the where the leak was coming from quickly. He communicated well, letting us know when he would be able to fix our leak. He provided before and after pictures of the work and explained why the roof was leaking. I highly recommend using him for your roofing work.

I had a tricky leak that I haven't been able to fix for a long time. I had 4 separate contractors try to fix it and they either didn't want to try to fix it, couldn't fix it, or didn't even bother to show up.

Rob did some work for a coworker and he was very pleased. So I called him. Rob can be hard to reach, but that's because he's exceptional at what he does and is in high demand.

On his first visit, he repaired 2 minor leaks without being asked to fix them. He knew they'd be simple. On his second visit, he water tested the area we thought was causing the leak. He successfully identified 5 tiny separate leaks (I thought it was one!). We are talking pin hole size. He then came back and fixed them all.

When one didn't take and it leaked with those heavy rains in December, he was back in a matter of days to correct the problem. Naturally he stood by his work and didn't ask for additional money.

He's extremely knowledgeable, meticulous, and methodical. Plus, he's a nice guy. Super trustworthy. If I ever have any roof or leak related issues ever again, Rob is the only guy I'll call.

Called them to fix a leak in my roof. They did a great job. Would definitely use them again.

Within the last couple of months, we had a few leaks in the same area. I contacted Rob one day and he came the next day. He came exactly when he said he would. He checked our roof and found a small hole. He fixed it and wasn't even going to charge us... what a great and honest guy!! Please call him. I would highly recommend him!

I contacted Robert for an estimate for roof repairs and re-roofing my garage for an insurance job due to wind damage. He fit me in to his busy schedule that same week. He sent me the estimate within a few days and included some options to choose from. He prices were fair market value and not over-inflated like the four other company's I took quotes from. In fact, he was way under their quotes. I hired him.

He scheduled me within the week and explained in detail what would be involved, what I should expect and explained the time frame for the worst case and best case scenarios based on the variables like weather conditions, other repairs for damage yet unseen until they peel back the old roofing, etc.

He and his crew arrived on time and proceeded with the work. Per my instructions, he should call me if he found any unseen damage that I should know about. I would have been very disappointed if he didn't call me because unknown to him, I already knew about some existing damage and was putting him through a test. He didn't disappoint. He called me about it, gave me my options and price quotes and again, he was very fair and honest. I authorized him to do the repair work.

When I got home at 3:30 pm that day, the roof was completed, there was no rubbish or debris left around, it was if he wasn't even there and I had a new roof! He did an immaculate job, in a short amount of time. Not only did he do an excellent job on the roof, but he even went down to the store, purchased paint, and painted the wood repair work they did for me. He didn't even charge me for the paint and labor for the painting! I paid him for it anyway as I was thankful his diligence, honesty and integrity. Robert is amazing!

A month later, I had a bad leak on my other unit. I immediately called Robert again. He scheduled me right away, again and what was supposed to be a three day job, he did it in two. This guy is amazing!

You will do yourself a disservice if you don't get a quote from Robert before you make your final roofing decision.

I am a small time real estate investor and have some rental units and networking with other investors and home owners. I have referred them to Robert and Kimoto Roofing for all their roofing needs. He is the best resource I have had the pleasure to work with in many years!

Call him, let him do a quote for you. He will not disappoint!

Rob was very responsive, offered a quick appointment to inspect my gutters & came right on time. Although he couldn't help much, he referred me to someone who he thinks can do the work. Very helpful, showed a lot of integrity & honesty re: what is best for me. Hope his referral is just as great!

After reading favorable first YELP review decided to help an up and coming local business. I was not disappointed, the owner was timely, pleasant, efficient - and cared!!! Something you just don't find much of these days. He reattached all of my gutters at a VERY fair rate - would recommend him!!
