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.

C. Metzger

Your crew did a great job just as I thought they would. Everything cleaned up and neatly done. I must tell you, because of the good workmanship, you will be doing my new roof job, on the house and the barn. I wanted to thank you and your crew for the good job.

B. Wiggins

I would like to commend the crew from Pond Roofing that worked on my house. They were very professional, working extended hours to remove the existing skylights, replacing them with a standard roof. I was particularly impressed with the speed and efficiency with which they removed the skylights above the solar panels. They used an approach that did not require them to walk on the roof or the solar panels. Also, they did not allow any debris to fall on the solar panels. In all areas, they worked as a coordinated team, removing the skylights, installing the two roofs, and removing all the debris. Again, please pass on my appreciation for a job well done to the crew who worked on the house.

G.M. Pittler

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.

S. Behn

As a dedicated do-it-yourselfer who has spent almost 30 years in rebuilding his home, I must confess some apprehension at the thought of a team of professionals invading our handiwork. However, the experience was extremely pleasant, and our association with you will long be remembered as an example of how craftsmen and clients should get along with each other.

The workmanship, in this extremely complicated roof configuration, appears to be thoroughly excellent, and I am confident that the winter snows will find no entryways. Please feel free to use my name as a reference regarding your business reputation, and the roof job itself as an example to show potential customers who may not yet be convinced of your technical competence.

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
