    I’ve had a great experience with Phil Lorsung installing a new roof on our house. Phil was able to complete a new roof, install new gutters and recap my chimney all within cost and schedule prescribed by my insurance carrier. There was a tight deadline involved and Phil and his team made it happen. The quality of work was excellent – it has rained a good number of times and there are no leaks! Phil also uncovered some additional work required, a new sky light. Phil got this addressed at a very reasonable price without any impacts to the roofing schedule.

    Phil and his team were very considerate of our property. They installed tarps over walkways and decking to catch debris and nails. At they end of the job, everything was picked up. Phil was very patient with me, explaining all available options for the work. In the end, he gave us exactly what we asked for.

    Give Phil a try. I’ll bet you will have great results too.
