They were great! We needed the cap on fireplace fixed due to wind damage. They came out gave free quote was back within a week to fix. Highly recommend and would use them again. Thank you!

AMAZING COMPANY..I highly recommend Litespeed Construction for any needs you have on a home or roof. They are the most transparent and most trustworthy company we have found. They answered all of my questions in a timely manner and answered all my many calls on our home repairs from Hurricane Helene. Billy and Kirby and the crew were very accommodating when there were changes being made and they worked hard with my Insurance company. They offer a service of an Auditor when the insurance company lowballed the estimate. The insurance paid over 20K more after the Auditor fought our case. The whole operation is top notch. Their crew was amazing.

Litespeed was great to work with and went out of their way to be accommodating! We needed an estimate for a home we were purchasing during the due diligence period. The Litespeed team was able to squeeze us in during a really tight time frame. Once we did close on the home, Billy and team had a new roof on our house within 2 weeks. The team did a great job of communicating and was very detailed.
This was my 2nd roofing experience with a year. It was a night and day difference, with Litespeed being a better experience all around. They knew this was our home and was beyond respectful of our time and property.
