I am not an expert on roofs so I go to people who have served me well in the past and I can trust their reputation. Excellent workmanship. Staff was friendly, polite and professional.

For specific locations of installation work, repairs, and specialty skylights, please request our list of referral addresses.

On 4 November 2008, I had an appointment with a Pond Roofing Consultant, Mr. Shanti Smith, to inspect the roof of my primary residence and to provide an estimate for one or more sky lights.

First, Mr. Smith called several times to confirm the appointment time and location. Second, Mr. Smith arrived promptly at the scheduled time. While these two events seem unimportant, in an age and metropolitan area where timeliness is a lost art, I truly appreciate Mr. Smith’s respect for my time.

Mr. Smith completed a detailed inspection of my home’s roof and completed a minor repair on the spot. Mr. Smith then reviewed options for skylights and provided an estimate.

As a career military officer, I have had the opportunity to live throughout the United States and abroad. As a believer in home ownership, my wife and I always purchase homes at our duty stations and at times have retained the properties as investment opportunities. With homeownership comes preventative maintenance and structure improvement requirements. I can say, without question, that Mr. Smith was the most professional and knowledgeable contractor/consultant that I have had the pleasure to encounter in my 21-years of Service and home ownership following college.

While the cost of the skylight exceeds our current budget for home improvement, I will use Pond Roofing for all future necessary repairs to our home’s roof and gladly refer my friends to Pond Roofing for all of their roofing requirements.

Thank-you again for the professionalism of Pond Roofing and of your employees.

I am thrilled with the way my new roof looks. I would like to compliment the roofer and helper who did the work. They appeared to know their business well, and were pleasant, helpful in answering questions, neat and meticulous in the work done. The gentlemen who led the work effort apparently was experienced and knowledgeable. It certainly is a pleasure doing business with you.

Never having had a roof replaced before, I was unaware of much of the details and the hard work it took. I was stunned by the amount of debris. But, your crew was amazing. They covered everything – even the fish pond. They kept the bits and pieces off the shrubbery and sidewalk and removed all the mess as they left. They worked steadily with professional dedication. I am impressed by your company, and we should be good for the next 25 years!
