The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10.

We recently had our ancient, moss covered tar and gravel roof
replaced by Penfold's Roofing. Initially we thought we would
have to have a torch on roof, as our roof is low slope. We had
two estimates for that, and decided to get a third, which was
Penfolds. Sean introduced us to a metal roof, which we
decided was right for us. Stuart and his crew did a fabulous
job with installation and clean up. Weatherguard gutters
efficiently installed 5 new downpipes, and we were finished !!

Sean gave us a very detailed estimate, so there were no
surprises when the roof was finished. That estimate was
not the most costly, which was a pleasant surprise.

We are very happy with the whole process. Try
Penfolds, you will like it !

Richard and Shelley, I wanted to thank you for the time write this review. Our Ziplok standing seam metal roof is an excellent replacement for an aged Tar and Gravel Roof. I am very happy to hear that you enjoyed your re roofing experience with us. All the best, Shaun Mayhew

We recently had a new roof on our house by Penfolds Roofing and can honestly say we were impressed. Great service from Sean and the whole crew that worked so hard to get the job done in good time. It was previously a shake roof so was a lot of work to change to a shingle roof but was cleaned up and pristine by the time they had finished. Thanks guys for an excellent job done well.

Aproximately five years ago we had Penfolds replace our roof. We had a cedar shake roof that needed replacing but we liked the esthetics of the shakes. With the assistance of a Penfolds representative we picked the rubber eco-roof and we have been extremely happy with the roofing, the installation and the security of having a fifty year guaranteed roof over our heads. Our new roof keeps the house warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer and we have the added security of having a fireproof roof. The roof still looks as good as new and enhances the look of the house. Last Fall we added a shed beside the house and Penfolds were there to assist us in getting the same roofing to match the house and ensure that we were able to get it installed before the bad weather. We would recommend Penfolds Roofing to anyone that requires roofing.

Time sure does fly! We replaced the roof back in 2008 and still continue to send people to take a look at your roof because it still looks so nice! We always get great feedback. Thank you for being valued customers -All the best, Shaun Mayhew

Knowing very little about having a new roof installed, I appreciate the time and patience Penfolds Roofing took to explain the options available, even down to helping me choose the most attractive shingle colour. The job was professionally done by friendly, respectfully roofers, and the completed roof met all of my expectations. The stressful experience of having a roof replaced was made as straight-forward and pleasant as it could possibly be. I am happy to recommend Penfolds Roofing to any perspective clients.

We used Penfold’s to install a new roof in September of 2014. We had used a less expensive company in previous years to install a roof on a guest house and were not satisfied with the quality of workmanship. For our main house, we had decided to focus more on quality and service rather than just price. We dealt with Michael Schoeman who was very professional and was able to answer our numerous questions as to different types of roofing materials as well as the pros and cons of the various options. He also provided an extensive listing of addresses for us to view their work. Based on doing our research and obtaining other quotes, we selected Penfolds who were not the cheapest quote.

We were very satisfied with Penfolds from our initial dealings with Michael all the way to keeping us informed of the timing through to the roof installation and follow up. The installation crew was professional and we are very satisfied with the quality of the product. In addition the installation crew was careful in the cleanup process and ensuring our backyard pool was protected during the work. I would rate Penfolds as a 10 out of 10 for quality and service.

In the spring of 2009 our circa “ 1910” home needed a new roof. We started to look around for companies to do the job and Penfolds Roofing quickly rose to the top of our list .
Emails were exchanged , estimates completed and the work began. We have a very steep roof and it had multiple layers of asphalt and wood shingles on it. The neighbor to the North was concerned that debris would damage her garden.
The crew worked extremely hard for almost two weeks to remove the old roof debris and reinstall the new roof. They were very professional and minimized the amount of noise and impact on our lives . There were a few minor issues along the way that were dealt with by the supervisor in a prompt and professional way. One call back was needed to address an issue on a flat roof portion and that was also quick and professional. This was probably the best outcome we could have asked for and I have no doubt that the warranty will be a selling feature when it comes to list our house for sale.
PS I looked long and hard after the crew left and NEVER found a single nail or piece of debris. My neighbour was also very pleased with the results.

5 star experience...

Excellent David! Couldn't be happier to have you as a customer of Penfolds. We work on character homes often, and they are challenging to say the least. Very steep, and often encroaching on neighbours properties. We always strive for an outcome similar to yours. All the very best, and enjoy the new roof! Shaun Mayhew

I would like to take this opportunity to thank your team for the excellent roofing job done on my house in November 2014.
November in Vancouver is not the best time to replace a roof, however when waiting is not an option your PENFOLDS team did an amazing job.
With the condition of our roof in such bad shape, putting a temporary tarp down while the supplies were ordered was a nice touch.
When a nasty wind storm blew through while I was at work, I received a panic call from my wife saying that the tarp was loose and flapping in the wind.
One call to Michael was all that was needed, “I will take care of it”. The next call was from a calmer wife, saying the tarp was back in place.
When the crews showed up to do the work they were very respectful, and the jobsite, (my home) was left clean at the end of each day.

Thanks again Michael and the rest of the PENFOLDS team.
A very happy customer.

The winter of 2014-2015 has been pretty extreme. Your story is not uncommon to hear. Many customers were caught unexpectedly by this harsh wet winter. We are happy to help Steve, and we are even happier to hear that everything went the way it did. All the very best, and enjoy the new roof!! Shaun Mayhew

I was especially impressed with the application crew, they were just awesome, did a great job and a few small extras that I didn't think about that they did plus the cleaning of the lawn after the job was great. All I can say was a great job well done-THANKS

We were very happy with the overall experience from start to finish. Sean C. was very helpful and knowledgeable about the products, and he didn't try to sell us a roofing product that wasn't warranted. The crew was prompt and professional, getting the job done earlier than scheduled.

I used Penfolds in the past when after a bad wind storm had cracked both of my skylights, they came out right a way and in the wind and the rain, covered both skylights with tarps, when the tarps came loose after more wind they came out again and recovered the skylights.
When it came time to replace my roof, I went with Penfolds due to past service I had received. The roofing crew were efficient and very professional. They answer any questions I had and informed me of any problems that occurred. The crew did a through job of replacing my roof and cleaning up. I would recommend Penfolds to any of my family and friends.
