Satisfied Customer Testimonials
"What a great experience - twice!! Me and my wife found during our home inspection, our dream home needed a roof ASAP! Aaron came out and was able to get us a quote needed for our closing. The install was great Northwest crew has our roof done in a day. Well 8 months later Helene hit our area hard. A tree decided to damage the front of our home and the brand new roof! He came out and met with our insurance adjuster as soon as they arrived. You don't understand how nice this was!!! He tarped the hole in the roof until the crew could perform repairs. Very very very very thankful to have trades people that pick up the phone when you call and stand by you when your home is damaged." - Noah K.
"Steve was prompt to come out and talk to me about the options I had when I was replacing my roof. Excellent communication and honest customer service. Great all around experience with a quality roof." - J. Rogers
"From start to finish John and his crew were professional and quick. Not only was customer service great, but the installation process was done quickly and super clean! Even neighbors complimented how impressed they were with how clean and organized the workers were. Would highly recommend Northwest roofing to anyone in need of roof repair." - Katherine M.
"We feel very lucky to have found this company. We had some leaks and called to see about an estimate to repair or replace the roof. Tim was responsive and showed up when he said he would. He found damage from a hailstorm and our homeowner's insurance covered a whole new roof. Afterwards, we had a small leak during Hurricane Helene, and the company was again responsive and fixed the leak and painted our ceiling. I highly recommend this roofing company!" - Melanie H.
