Salt Roofing

Salt Roofing was an AMAZING company to work with. They did an amazing job on my new roof. I was in desperate need of a total new roof with all the wood being replaced. My roof was really old and in Horrible shape was in desperate need of a total new roof with all the wood being replaced. I had never heard of Salt Roofing until I saw 2 of my neighbors had their roofs done by Salt Roofing. I had already started shopping around for estimates in our local area. I figured they were doing something right if 2 of my neighbors had them replace it and how happy they were with their work and experience. I called Salt Roofing and spoke to a gentleman named Miguel. We set up an appointment to meet and he kept his word. Miguel was on time and ready to get to work on my estimate. After my inspection was done Miguel was able to show me pictures of my roof right away. I loved that. My roof was worst then I expected. Salt Roofing out of 4 estimates came in at the lowest price and that was including all my wood to be replaced. Which I wanted done. My roof was super old and making a big investment like this I wanted it all done at once. I had to have my roof done by a certain date and Salt Roofing made it happen. I was so thankful. Miguel and I set up the date and Miguel and the roofing crew were at my house first thing in the morning. The crew started the work and they kept me in the loop with what was going on as well Talk about hard workers. . The crew was so kind and knew of my situation that they worked on their only day off. The roof was completed and Lake County code enforcement was out right away to check their work. He complimented their work and said that they do really great work. Miguel kept me in the loop the whole time too. Miguel made my experience with Salt Roofing a great company to work with. Thank you Miguel and the rest of the crew for doing such a fantastic and beautiful job on my roof. I would definitely recommend them.

This company is equivalent to an ambulance chaser if they were an injury attorney. I only realized that after I hired them to do an insurance claim in which they canvased my neighborhood after a hail storm, knowing they could get an adjuster to approve the claim under state law, basically. They got the roof approved but only for a portion of it, I ended up paying out of pocket for the rest. And the kicker is that my insurance company dropped me right after they did the job, so then I had to end up paying double in finding a new insurer. The job was done, but sloppily, they left roofing nails sticking out of the shingles which I wouldn't have seen if I hadn't walked the roof myself. The flat portion of the roof had to be redone because it was pooling after it rained, the pitch was totally off. My belief is, the only reason they came back to fix these issues and several others is that I hadn't paid them the final installment, luckily I had on my side, otherwise this might be an entirely different story. They are slick in regards to the sales pitch and will definitely go out of their way to get the insurance claim, but beware that there will be consequences if you file a claim. They had to do some woodwork on my soffits because there was wood rot, while they did the repair they didn't even offer to paint or waterproof the new wood before putting on the shingles, flashing, and drip edge. I had to paint around what I could but I know there's a lot of the wood did not get painted prior to finishing the job. If you hire Salt Roofing I would double and triple check the work after it's supposedly completed. I'll end this by saying that the work done was average, but as far as attention to detail, not so much. I've been asked by several contractors since who did my roof, because they see the soffits are in poor shape and there's no gutters where they should be, so now I'm in the process of hiring other contractors to finish the job.

Let me start by saying DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY if you are making an INSURANCE CLAIM. And I wouldn’t recommend if for short term rental either. From the time they came out for a quote, we told them we are going to submit a claim to insurance because we don’t have new roof money. The sales guy recommended he meet the adjuster out there but said if they did that, we would have to sign a paper stating that If claim is approved, we must use their company. Ok no worries. We signed the paper. They met the adjuster out. Claim was approved however we wanted a slightly better roof so we agreed to pay the difference from what insurance would pay and what the roof cost. I payed them my deductible and the insurance deposit upfront. This is a short term rental which I told them before agreeing to go with them. I told them we would have to plan a month in advance when the work would be done as it stays pretty booked up and I cannot have people re-doing the roof while someone is here on vacation to relax. They said that was absolutely fine and would not be a problem. Anything to sell it right? That was not the case- they called me less than a week (after SIX MONTHS) and said it was being done. The job was completed so I submitted the final claim to my insurance to get the final check. I payed the difference immediately however told them I have to wait on insurance because I didn’t have that money the insurance was covering. If I did, I wouldn’t have done an insurance claim because low and behold, my premium DOUBLED. Insurance company is backed up because Florida had two lovely hurricanes within a month apart so they were taking a little longer than usual. Did salt roofing care? Nope. They went to file a Lien on my property. They knew from the beginning it had to be an insurance deal and that’s how they would get the money because we DID NOT HAVE IT. Not everyone has $11k laying around. They are impatient. So if you are using insurance, better have the money in the bank to go ahead and pay them because they will not wait on insurance and will file a lien on your home. So sad. Consider yourself warned!

We were completing an addition to our house, which had just been re-roofed by Salt Roofing the previous year, by the previous owners. We contacted Salt Roofing to confirm that if we had them do the new roofing and tie-in needed for the addition, that would preserve the warranty on the 1 year old roof, which was a key concern for us. George came out and reviewed our plans, existing work, etc., and gave us a quote for the new roofing work, which was very reasonably priced. When we were finally ready for the new roof to go on, George and team were very responsive, and completed the work on time, and at the price quoted, with no problems or complications. The quality of the work and materials was also very high, and their warranty also impressed us. They even took care of the work needed to add in the new vent stack for the range hood in the new kitchen, all included within the quoted price. George and team were very available and responsive throughout the process, which is rare these days in my experience. I would highly recommend Salt Roofing for any roofing related work that you need done.

My name is Mike O'Connell, and I've never written a review for anything in my life. However, I felt compelled to write this review because of my excellent experience with Salt Roofing, and in particular, Will Joyce. As well as being a total professional, Will is a very kind man. Because I live in Los Angeles and wasn't able to be present when the job was performed, Will went above and beyond his normal duties to help me out with the necessary paperwork and in dealing dealing with my elderly, deaf mother. Will answered all my questions promptly and even sent me pictures of the job in progress. Will's crew was very professional and made sure to clean the perimeter of the property after the job was completed! This is not something that I've experienced with roofers in the past, usually the roofer leaves a mess to deal with. If you find yourself needing a new roof, I strongly suggest you contact Will Joyce at Salt Roofing. You can't go wrong. Michael O'Connell
