I used Concrete Raising Company (CRC) to raise portions of my driveway and sidewalk and install new…read moreexpansion joints. I paid twice as much for the poly material, in order to have dime sized holes to minimize detection. It has been a 3-month long nightmare. None of the work was consistent with the quality advertised on their website. Specifically: * Many of the drilled holes were more than 2" in diameter. The fill used was a shiny epoxy, instead of concrete/mortar. Dark stains were left near many of the holes, leaving a permanently marred surface. There are still uneven surfaces along the sidewalk. * The expansion joints were done with two different materials, are not level, have "blobs" at the end points, come up over the concrete in some areas, have leaves and debris embedded, have ridges where the material ran, and are already bubbling. * These issues were reported from day one to the sales rep, Steven, and through written correspondence to the President, Daniel Chriss (including before and after pictures). There was no response, and no one came out to inspect the work. I finally got Steven and Frank (who did the expansion joints) in June to return to inspect the work. After inspection, Frank told me that I WAS THE PROBLEM (see photos). Having not been able to resolve the issues (i.e. stain removal, drill hole redo, fix expansion joints), I was instructed to call the owner, Joe Kenney. When I called, Joe answered the phone, and before I could say anything, HE LAID INTO ME. He gave excuses, said that based on my photos this was some of their best work, and would not let me speak. Joe was condescending and derogatory and stated he was going to "put a stop to this right now"! Joe made it clear he was not going to remedy the situation or offer compensation. In fact, Joe told me to just go and get someone else. I've never encountered such a rude response, especially from a co-owner of a "family" business. I've included only a few example photos.

It pains me to rescind stars from a review I previously made, especially since it was quite a few…read moreyears ago. However, recent events have brought many questions along with a lot of frustration to light. A bit of history: our house was built in late 1988. In April 2015 there was a significant hailstorm that our area experienced. Our roof at the time was obviously quite old, but the impact from the hail did it in. Under the recommendation of our insurance office, we contacted Strata Roofing to repair the roof on our 2800 square-foot home. In August of 2015 the roof was completely replaced. Fast forward now to July 2024. It's been 9 years since our roof was done, but Hurricane Beryl had other plans for us. An 80-foot tree fell, crushing the back part of our detached garage and eventually landed across the yard, damaging part of our main structure. Besides the partial rebuild of the actual house and garage, obviously our roof needed to be repaired. Only about one-third total of the roof needed to be replaced, but since our current contractor found that our shingles were no longer available, we decided to replace the entire roof to avoid having two different colored shingles. And this is where the truly alarming part of the story occurs: what a shock when we found that multiple areas of the decking (wood below the shingles) had huge (and I mean HUGE) holes in them, as well as some areas that had no decking at all! Now, multiple smaller holes are not uncommon from what I understand. But one hole that measured 3 feet by 2 feet? Or large enough to fit a child through? And a piece of missing decking altogether? Which leads us to speculate: did these holes occur prior to the roof being replaced by Strata and they just shingled over this deteriorated wood, ignoring the obvious need for replacement? Or did these holes occur after the roof was replaced, with shingles being inadequately applied resulting in water seeping under and then rotting out the decking? None of this, however, would explain a completely missing piece! Whatever the reason, it's obvious, in our opinion, that Strata did not do a satisfactory job in replacing our roof a mere 9 years ago. Fortunately, most of the holes were in areas that were above the soffits, so any leaks that may have resulted did not impact our interior. But one of the holes (the one the size of a child) was right above our kitchen breakfast area and the other 3' x 2' hole was above our attic, which probably did leak into our attic insulation. In all, our current contractor stated that it's normal to replace one to two partial pieces of decking using about one large piece of plywood. We, however, are on plywood piece number 5. Yikes! We thought Strata did an admirable job in 2015. Wow, were we fooled. We now believe that either Strata slapped up shingles without any thought of further roof repairs or something else went terribly wrong with their installation. Whatever the cause, I can't get beyond the fact that our original roof lasted 27 years and this one lasted 9. That is quite a difference. Be advised.

They were not the cheapest or highest, but their work looked better than most of the other roofs put on by other companies. John H came out to the house and I got a quote a few days later we were not in a hurry because we already had underlayment on the roof that was supposed to be good for 1 year. The roof has been on for several months and a few good storms with winds up to over 45 mph with no issues. A good rain does clean the dust and pollen off the roof and it looks new again. They were willing to wait until I got bricks on the house to finish installing the downspouts for the gutters. Had Berridge Double-Lock Zee-Lock Panels installed that were made onsite that took several days to install. Looks great after several months. I have recommended Strata roofing to anyone looking for a new roof that ask and I don't recommend many of the people that I have worked with or others that I have seen their work. Thanks Craig Spring,Tx

I called back the next day as it wasn't originally made clear that it may take a while as she does not know the contractors schedule. I stated okay that is fine and she stated that she would get back with me. So I gave it a week and called the following Thursday to check to see if she was able to speak with the contractors. She cut me off and stated that she had left a voice message; however, I did not have a voicemail or even a missed call so I provided my number again. She stated that he had some availability in about a hour if I would be home. I said great and the guy showed up within the hour. He examined my window and stated that he would have to come back Friday or Saturday with a ladder to check out my roof. I stated great I will be home all day on both days. He stated the office would give me a call to set it up. I provided him with my number to make sure that they had the correct number on file. I never heard anything else and didn't even bother following up because of the poor customer service. If my house was too far, job too small or they were too busy I would rather be told that than ignored. Glad I was able to find another company that was able to repair my roof leak and sheetrock removal/replacement.

I feel the owner, David Yousefi, and regional manager, Kenneth Ferris, have not taken real responsibility for the outcome and instead offered explanations and proposals that would cost me more money while my house continues to fail. I no longer trust their assessments or methods, and I strongly urge other homeowners to get an independent structural engineer, multiple opinions, and every promise in writing before considering this company. They are unscrupulous and I would not use their service.

As fate would have it I happened to notice Colony Roofing & Exteriors,LP Truck parked in parking area near my home. I waited for Sales Rep Steven F. to return to vehicle to approach him to schedule roof repair. I was glad to see him because making direct contact with company rep might ensure I get issue with roof resolved sooner rather than later. I explained to Steve the issue with roof & showed him pictures of roof damage. He took my information & promised to get back to me. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect that I would hear from him that very evening. He explained a roof install scheduled for weekend was postponed due to rain forcast over the weekend. Steve notified he prioritized my roof over other customer's scheduled because my roof issue involved water damage which would worsen if left un treated. What a great guy Steve is & thoughtful to boot! Today as promised Steve & crew of 2 guys arrived at my home before 8:30 am to began roof repair. Steve explained the decking on roof was rotted & needed to be replaced. Steve stated the decking would be nailed to the effected area of roof to support roofing materials to prevent water leaks. He stated ice water shield would be installed under new shingles to prevent further water damage. Steve covered all the basics before worker's commence roof repair even inquiring whether gutter guy leveled the gutters because he stated if this step wasn't completed it would be useless completing roof repair because roof water issue would persist whenever, it rained. I was pleased with job the roofer's did with house roof. Steve is friendly & very knowledgeable about roofing process & industry. The roofing job for the effected area 3ft x 2ft costs 600.00 which I didn't think was unreasonable for the amount of work completed. On Colony Roofing & Exteriors, LP Work Order notes roof repair is warranted for 2 years which I thought was decent. I would have given Colony Roofing & Exteriors 5 stars but had one small un addressed concern but over all the worker's did a great job. I would re hire this company for any Roofing issues I had in the future.
