I want to start this review with a "thank you" to Ja-Mar and especially to Drew, our project manager. We had to replace our metal roof recently with no insurance assistance with costs. Drew helped me make informed decisions and never pushed his company or products as the other roofing companies did. When it was time to install the new roof, I had a family emergency that took me out of state. Drew and his fabulous team took care of everything and updated me every step of the way with photos and check-ins each night.

If you are looking for a company that will provide the best quality, are professional and easy to work with, and price fairly, stop looking.you have found them! I tell everyone about my experience with them and I hope my review helps you decide they are the right fit for you too.

I had a wonderful experience working with Drew, Garrett, and the team at Ja-Mar! They were absolutely professional, friendly, thorough, and efficient. I appreciate a 'not-in-your-face' experience, and Drew accommodated that perfectly. On top of it all, I now have a beautiful roof! Service: Roof installation

Ken Kelly came to the home and within two days we had a comprehensive quote for a roof replacement. Ken provided samples for the shingles and explained, in detail, the materials and services to be provided. He even made us aware of the generous warranty package that came with the quote/job. Ken stayed in touch with us throughout the project and was very responsive to our needs. The work crew arrived early and completed the project in one day. This even included clean up of all excess materials and debris. We will recommend Ja-Mar to our neighbors and friends.

I looked at several companies when looking to get my roof replaced due to hail damage. Ja-mar hit all the high marks and I went with them without hesitation. I worked with David and Garrett and everything went great. We got the project done on time and all the tradesmen on the job were top notch. I couldn't have asked for anyone better to do the work. We also had the gutters replaced and everything looks great. I would recommend them for anything roofing.

I called Drew for a roof installation bid based on a friend's recommendation. He was prompt and professional, and answered all of my questions. His crew was excellent and professional as well. My new roof is beautiful and everything was left in pristine condition after the job was completed. I'm so pleased that I went with Drew and Ja-Mar Roofing!

We replaced our roof with Ja-Mar and we're so happy with how smooth the whole process went. We worked with Drew and he was absolutely amazing. Very detailed, honest, communicative, responsive and very pleasant to work with. The crew was large and professional. They finished our roof in one day. All of our neighbors were impressed with how quickly they finished our roof and how beautiful it came out. The crew made sure to clean up after themselves. They did a beautiful job - so happy with the final result. Great value as well. Highly recommend Ja-Mar.
