Your company just completed a roofing job on our home in Herndon, Virginia. We don’t have a habit of writing letters to contractors that we have dealt with over the years, but we decided to make an exception. We would like very much to express our sincere appreciation of the quality workmanship of the roofing job completed on our house. Your people both in the office and in the field acted in a most professional manner. It was a real pleasure to have a quality and timely job completed. In the past, we have had to have contractors return to finish the job properly. This contract was an exception and we are very satisfied customers. Again, thank you and your staff for a very rewarding experience. We will tell our neighbors and friends about the professional work of the Pond Roofing Company, and how nice it was to deal with people who are interested in doing a quality job

Mr. and Mrs. Muscaro

Excellent workmanship, staff and cleanup. I have recommended your company to others for years. Thanks

Mr. And Mrs. D. Colby

We wish to commend the employees that were assigned to work on our house. They were most helpful in doing the best job possible. We cannot speak too highly of them and want you to know that they bring credit to your business. We were very pleased and satisfied with the work they performed and thorough clean up of any debris. Thank you for such professional people.

Mr. And Mrs. J. Urban

Excellent workmanship. We feel your employees did a good job and had a very good attitude – especially the young man who did the back flat roof and the final cleanup. As you know, I used you and your service once before – about 30 years ago.

E. Nagley

Another nice job – you did our former townhouse. We have recommended you for many years.

Mr. and Mrs. T. Corcoran

SO YOU NEED A NEW ROOF…

Posted on July 11, 2014 by Betsy Pond

…and you are daunted by the process. First, buying a new roof is not impulse buying. It is not even close to being a “happy” buy. It is an unpleasant surprise and a bit scary. It is an expense you did not budget in, and you have no idea what this is going to cost.
