Very unprofessional. I was expecting them to knock on the door and let me know that they had arrived, instead they just started working. Didn't even let me know they were leaving, I went out to ask who was in charge so that I could talk to them. They couldn't even give me an answer one of the guys said "I guess that's me" Is it you? Are you sure? Not much confidence there buddy. Aside from that, they were smoking on the roof and throwing their cigarette buds in my yard.
I have a dog that's always in the backyard and not only could he eat those, it's just plain disrespectful. Also, pizza crust all over the side of my house and even left pieces of metal everywhere. It's just dangerous and unprofessional. Not only did they not let me know when they were here and when they were leaving, they also constantly left my backyard gate open. When I had asked them to close it multiple times. My dog is in the backyard and although he is a good dog, he can still get out, it's happened before and it's just irresponsible of them to continue to leave the gate open.

I called to request a free estimate last week. They are willing to travel to Hoopa and said they would come take a look first opportunity they had. This morning they called. came out, got right to it.!

Simply the best. The estimator was thorough and expert at diagnosing the source of our leak. The work was done quickly, thoroughly and expertly. And everyone we dealt with at the company was incredibly nice. We couldn't be happier with A&I roofing!

I'm so impressed with A & I Roofing! They re-roofed our house in 2008 and did a fantastic job. They completed the job quickly, professionally, and left zero mess. Fast forward to 2017: I noticed a small stream of water running down the exterior of one of our windows whenever we had a prolonged, heavy rain. Our contractor sealed a nearby gutter end but problem persisted. I contacted A&I about the issue, expecting to be billed for the work. Tom, from A&I, came up with a solution, which included removing some gutter screens I had installed. He sent a crew to make the needed adjustments; a cracked vent was also replaced. I wasn't billed for any of the work. A&I Roofing is great!

We had a roof done over the winter on a commercial hospitality property. The property has manicured grounds and we aim to keep it as clean and orderly looking as possible. Our roof is also quite large and has many owl coves and dormers. Not only did A&I fit us in during the winter at a difficult time, they left no trace!. Everything was extremely clean and they took great care to respect the landscaping and the nature of our business. We have gone through the wettest winter we have had in a long time and the roof is holding up fantastically. We couldn't be happier with the overall experience.

Had A&I do a re-roofing earlier in summer. Had 2 days of teardown, and about 4-5? days till completion. I had a large roof, with lots of mid-century modern angels, but very flat. I just hung to whatever end of the house they were not working on for the day to chill with my pets. Debris were very minimal around my property, only small bits that made it kinda far. They also replaced a skylight of ours. We had 3 quotes, and they are the ones we went with.

People that drive the trucks by this company drive like a bunch of jerks on the highway. I almost got rear ended twice by one guy because I was going to slow apparently but the speed limit was 45 and I was doing 52. Not sure how their business practices are but their drivers of the people who represent the company within their vehicles don't seem very pleasant on the road.
