Excellent workmanship. Courteous and patient with my many questions. Excellent clean up. You were recommended to me 20 years ago. I keep coming back.

Dr. F. D’Aquila

Living overseas, it came as a shock when our property manager e-mailed us saying that our house in Virginia needed a new roof immediately. We were bewildered trying to identify trustworthy and professional contractors, and our property manager suggested Pond Roofing. We checked out the references and made contact with a representative. She was immediately ready to help and directed us to a website which allowed us to visualize the many color and tile choices available. We wanted the best materials and workmanship available so that our new roof would last for the rest of our lives. Pond provided cost estimates for many different materials and options. Once we chose a plan that was right for us, Pond started and finished the work quickly and expertly. The new roof, new gutters and good workmanship impressed quite a few neighbors who requested the name of the company who did the work. I have never written a testimonial about a company before, and I generally don’t believe the testimonials that I see on websites, but I would be happy to tell you individually what a great pleasure it was to work with Pond and how satisfied we are with their professionalism.

I would like to compliment all of you that I came in contact with. The receptionist was extremely helpful and patient with all of our questions. Joe was great about calling me to answer questions I had, and certainly very knowledgeable about the whole business. And the three roofers were terrific. They were extremely polite, and very careful with the property. I still can’t figure out how they managed the fantastic clean-up job – my yard looked like it had been vacuumed! We are very pleased with the whole job. I’m just sorry we won’t need another roof for 25 more years. Your people were a real pleasure, and the work was great.

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!

WOOD REPLACEMENT

Posted on June 28, 2013 by Betsy Pond

One of the most frustrating aspects of replacing a roof is when we find that sheathing is bad and must be replaced. Wood replacement is really the only unknown left in our work orders. We don’t like unknowns any more than our customers. The best case scenario for us is that the sheathing is fine. That
