They do good quality work. But, they simply charge way more than other people just because they are based in Boulder and know Boulder people have money. Service: Roof repair

Amber sucks. Absolutely terrible customer service. Requested quote on: Sat, May 16, 8:28 PM. Followed up multiple times as well via phone and email. Today is July 30th. Still haven't received a quote. It's like they don't want anyone's business?

Black roofing was very professional and prompt. The process was easy from start to finish. The roofing crew was efficient and cleaned up after themselves. Very happy with the results thus far!

Black Roofing was worth waiting for to do my residential re-roof job after the 2018 hailstorm. Their roofers and field staff are outstanding and did an excellent job on the re-roof. Their field support staff (superintendent JB and project manager TT) were the best and went above-and-beyond to exceed my expectations for an A+ job. The reason I rate Black Roofing 4-stars instead of 5 is because of the POOR service from the office/administrative support staff, most notably their current service coordinator, AB.
I had to make repeated calls to request paperwork for my insurance company and the service coordinator never carried through without follow-up from other field staff and repeated calls from me. There were always plenty of excuses offered for the poor service, but it never improved. So, you can expect the best work from the field staff and roofers, but, unfortunately, below average, frustrating service from the office staff. If you're willing to make that trade-off, your roofing job will be the best, but your blood pressure may take a beating :(

Black Roofing provides high quality work that can withstand our winds. Quality work. Done right, the first time! On our first house we used another company (who was cheaper) and we were calling after every storm for warranty work. We switched to Black and have had no issues.

They do very high quality work, but i gave 3 stars bc they are just ridiculously expensive. They tailor to the rich Boulder crowd and not to the rest of the population who lives in a normal economic reality.

We had Black Roofing come and do spray foam insulation on the inside of the exterior walls of our garage. Not only did the guys show up on time and complete the work in a timely manner; they covered all of our stuff in the garage and did a full cleanup when they left. These guys did an amazing job and made it so our garage wouldn't leak cold air into the rooms above and next to it! We couldn't be happier with the service and product that we received from Black Roofing!
