Roofing for Less

Roof was done by this company 3 years ago. Been nothing but issues the last year. Materials they used were very low grade. I called spoke to one of the owners was told they would call me back and they never did. I have called many times since and its a song and a dance.

Roofing For Less installed the roof on our custom-built house. Big mistake.

Three years later, we found a leak around the plumber’s stack—after drywall and window trim were already damaged. When we contacted the company, Jody from the company responded that they’d send someone “when they have time.” Not willing to wait through spring rains, we hired another roofer the next day. They found so many problems that we decided Roofing For Less would never touch our roof again.

When we asked them to cover the repairs under warranty, Jody’s responses were ridiculous:
• She’d report us to the police for “extortion.”
• She’d leave a bad review for the roofer who fixed their mistakes.
• Claimed someone else tampered with the roof because “the nails look new.”
• Blamed the pipe—not their roofing work.

And more nonsense.

After some arguing, Jody agreed to cover $500 of the $900+ repair bill. I sent the invoice and payment details—then waited. No payment. Called again—she said her e-transfer was “broken.” Waited again—no response. Then she claimed the cheque was mailed two weeks ago. Still nothing.

I have emails and photos to prove all of this.

Bottom line: lousy workmanship, no accountability, zero ethics. Avoid Roofing For Less if you care about your house.

As one roofer mentioned “the name says it all”.

BTW the check is still “in the mail”. Not that I would ever expect it to arrive.

Roofing for Less, replaced our shingles on our park model cottage. We were both very impressed with the quality of workmanship. The job was top notch and our property was left clean and tidy. From the first interaction with Roofing for Less to the installation was done in a timely matter. Would definitely recommend Roofing for Less for your roof repairs.
Thank you Michele & Zig

Just had my roof done by these guys. Very happy with the result. The planner was very easy to work with and completed the work for a reasonable price, they were quick to respond to questions about the work and the process for planning the date of work start was remarkably simple. The crew showed up and completed my garage roof in no time at all and left very little mess to clean up. Satisfied customer, would recommend to anyone looking to hire someone to do their roof.

I paid Roofing For Less to install soffit, fascia and eves troughs on our home 2 years ago. The work was sloppy, they had to be told to fix several things right away. They even blocked the hydro meter with a downspout, and when I asked them to move it, they didn't put up a new gutter, they just patched it.
A month ago, one of our gutters came off the side of the house and landed on our gas meter - the lumber that they installed was only held on with 2 inch screws! Some of the gutter screws were never even done up!
I contacted Kim, she said she'd call the owner and get back to me. I've called 10 times, they won't even pick up the phone or call me back. These people will take your money and disappear at the first sign of trouble. Do not use this service. They are an embarrassment to their industry.

UPDATE: Rotted wood replacement was part of the scope of work provided by Roofing For Less, rotted fascia board was replaced in several areas around the house to accomodate the new fascia. Using 2 inch brass screws does not constitute rotted wood, it's shotty workmanship by a hack who doesn't know what he's doing. To wait for a negative review and then respond with bullcrap is exactly this company's way of handling public relations, rather than calling back. No explanation of the damage was done, no site visit of any kind was communicated to me (so if they came here, they trespassed while I wasn't home). Not sure why they think I'd allow them to put up a downspout in front of the hydro meter, that's pretty ridiculous that they'd agree to that even if I asked. It sounds like the people in charge of refuting these negative reviews doesn't do much else with their time, servicing the needs of the customer might be a good start. I never asked for the repair to be done for free, I never spoke with anyone but Kim in reception, who never got back to me since I spoke to her on January 29th (today is February 25th). If Roofing For Less had done the right thing and simply called me back, we could have worked something out where I paid for the materials, but seeing their shotty business practices extend to their online reviews, I'd rather kiss a toilet seat than let these people on my property.
