We had a big, franchised roofing company lined up to do the work, but I got the feeling they wouldn't stand by the bid once they started. Some salesman did the estimate but I got the feeling he'd never done any roofing himself. And I didn't want to have to come up with more money once they started.So I asked around the neighborhood and found Troost. It's a small, local company that has been in business forever plus they specialize in roofs (not siding/windows/concrete/dog doors/basements). The owner came out and did the bid. His recommendations were great. He knew roofing, and the whole experience was great. I was very happy with Troost and will tell other neighbors about them. The roof looks great. The work was done on time, their quote was the price, and they were professional, knowledgeable, and neat. They did a superior job.
