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

Mr. and Mrs. T. Corcoran

Since Pond Roofing finished, I have been up on my roof several times. I am very pleased at what a thorough and very careful job was done – not just the shingling but the replacement sheathing, fitting of the drip edges and flashing, vent covers, and so forth. I consider myself lucky and grateful to have gotten your crew. I say this as someone who has built one house from the foundation up with my own hands, and can tell the good from the slip-shod when I hire work done on my current home. The work crew made sure I got to see the old sheathing myself after the tear-off. The cleanup was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised as I was sort of expecting the worst. My house has a lot of bushes, vines and flowers right around it, and they were careful to put down tarps to protect the shrubbery and catch the stuff that fell during the tear-off. I have already recommended you to my boss, and I’ve made sure to pass along your flyers. Your company is well thought of and has a good track record.

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

Pond Roofing crew was thoroughly professional. Friendly, cordial — even on a blistering day on a black rubber roof with no shade. More than a “good” job– truly a “work of art” where this kind of craft is concerned. Just a beautiful job. When it comes to the roof, I always call Pond and recommend that others do so also.

During the warmer months, proper insulation is important to keep the heat from coming into the living area. In the winter, insulation provides a blanket for your home.
