I contacted Charles about a leak that started the night before. He got back to me right away, and…read moresent one of his guys to come look at the place first thing the next morning. The guy was very considerate and looked at everything, then he called Charles back, who called me, and quoted me $6,500 to replace the entire 250 square foot roof. He kept saying it was 500 square feet, which it definitely is not (he had not seen it in person). I tried to talk through various options with him, but as soon as it became clear I likely wasn't going to spend $6,500 on the spot to replace the entire roof, he became disinterested and eventually hung up on me. I get Charles not wanting to waste time, but the numbers he was throwing at me seemed very large, especially for the situation. He wasn't wiling to talk through things at all unless I was going to commit to thousands of dollars on the spot. Also, after some less rushed research, $6,500 is a very high price for a 250 square foot flat roof. Charles seemed like a nice enough fellow - but I can't help feeling that I narrowly escaped being taken for a very expensive ride because i needed work done quickly - as anyone with a leaking roof likely can relate to!

EDIT (6 Months After Install): Two of the leaks that existed before the re-roof have persisted…read more Charles is always quick to answer the phone and send his team (honoring his warranty), but unfortunately they haven't solved the actual issues. Therefore, it's hard to give them more than a couple stars since the main value of having a roof is to prevent leaks, which this roof currently does not do. ORIGINAL: In short -- highly recommend. We called C. Johnston after suffering from sporadic leaks in our new apartment for the last 6 months. Charles, his sons, Santiago and the crew did a phenomenal job on a difficult project that involved laying down a new roof and replacing a skylight at our coop in SoHo. Much of the roof was underneath a large deck that had to be moved (and then reassembled) in order to replace the roof. The deck was put back together in great condition, and the new roof has withstood a few storms already with no leaks. The price was fair (Charles specifically made a point to not oversell a more expensive method when it wasn't needed) the communication was clear & frequent, and the team left my place in better condition then when they arrived. FWIW they're also the only roofers we've had that haven't tracked tar anywhere in my apartment. If you're considering a new roof in NYC, you'd be dumb not to call C. Johnston.

Every contractor who came before seemed to patch a different area, but the problems always came back eventually. Goldenberg Roofing BK broke the cycle. After inspecting the roof, they showed us several areas where water had been ponding for a long time and explained how the existing drainage layout was contributing to the deterioration. The project involved a full tear-off, new flat roofing system, updated flashing, and improvements around the drains. The crew worked efficiently, kept the roof organized throughout the project, and provided updates along the way. We've been through several major storms since completion and the roof has performed exactly as hoped.

Al went above and beyond and is the most experienced roofing contractor that I have crossed paths with. I unfortunately called many roofers for quotes, but my inner gut told me to keep going. Thankfully, I continued my pursuit and found Al. Al explained every phase of my full roof replacement. He clearly and personally guided me through the permitting steps, which saved me a ton of time and stress. The office staff was equally outstanding: organized, responsive, and genuinely pleasant to work with. Sophie was very responsive which I found refreshing after the lack of response from other companies. And Mike's crew? Exceptional. Their workmanship, efficiency, and attention to detail were truly top notch and second to none. Elite Roofing is exactly the kind of company you hope to hire. They were honest, transparent, dependable, and exceptionally skilled. If Yelp allowed more than five stars, they'd easily earn them. I recommend them wholeheartedly. You'll be in great hands from start to finish.

Besi was honest, fair, and professional throughout the entire process. He clearly explained what needed to be done, answered all our questions, and ensured the job was completed correctly. There was never any pressure--just straightforward advice and quality workmanship. The crew worked efficiently and completed the project quickly, and the results exceeded our expectations. What really stood out was their attention to detail. The cleanup at the end of both workdays was exceptional, leaving our property spotless each evening. It's refreshing to work with a company that values honesty, communication, and customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Garden State Roofing & Chimney, and especially Besi, for anyone looking for quality work and outstanding service.

I am usually very reluctant to talk to anyone that rings my doorbell to sell me something but Tom seemed very nice. Also, I could actually see the work they were doing on my neighbor's house so I decided to hear him out. I've been considering replacing the 28 year old roof for years, since I had started to see shingle damage during storms, but just kept putting it off another year at a time. Tom was a super nice person and didn't in any way pressure me into a sale. He showed me what they were doing to my neighbors roof and I asked him for a quote. Very happy with Tom's offer I agreed to the job. One difference between Hometown Home Improvements offer and other roofers is that Tom didn't ask for any money until the job was complete and I was satisfied. None of the other estimates I had gotten from other roofing companies offered this. They all wanted money before they started. The next day a crew showed up at 8am sharp, stripped the old roof off and reshingled it in one day. New gutters were on by the end of the day and the job was complete by the second morning. Tom also rerouted my back downspout to the front of the house, which is a huge improvement since I had excessive build up of water from the downspout coming off the back of the house into my back yard. His workers were extremely professional and hard working. They tented the back and front of the house and not a single bush had any damage to it. When they finished you would never have known workers were in my yard, it was spotless. The new roof is beautiful and it was the best decision to go with Tom and Hometown Home Improvement for the job. If you need a new roof and you want a company that stands by their promise and does excellent work go with Hometown Home Improvement. You will be very happy you did. Thank you Tom and George! A job well done!! Tim J
