Roofs On Homes A Division Of City 1

I just had my roof completely replaced by City1 roofworks. Danny and crew are thorough, knowledgeable and hard working.

I started by research and quote process a few months in advanced. I called in 9 quotes over a period o 2weeks. By the end, I knew exactly what I was expecting from a roof replacement. After talking to all of them the choices quickly narrowed down to two.

The cheapest estimates didn’t include some basic stuff required to have a solid, long lasting roof. Anyone asking for estimates should make sure they are comparing apples and apples. Do your research: Ice and water shield on valleys and edges. Underlayment all over, Metal drip edge, Metal Valley (even if closed), flashing replacement, vent replacement, etc.

Although I had a great interaction with Danny during the quote process, I was on site during the 1 ½ days that it took to complete the job, to ensure all went as expected. Danny and crew, by far, exceeded by expectations. They were quick and detailed, even with the pretty strong winds (don’t know how they do it). They covered all areas with a tarp and cleaned up the mess afterwards. The bin was out of there 30 minutes after the job was completed.

They also re-routed a drainage to the Eavestrough so that it wouldn't land on the roof. See pictures.
I would recommend City1 roof works to anyone, in fact I already did.
A truly exceptional job.

Doing a job fast and still doing it right is a hard combination to achieve. City1 Roofing is unique in that sense. Danny takes pride in his work and insists on doing it right and never cutting corners. Yet, he also manages to pull it off at blazing speed. This unique combination sets this company apart. Danny and his team were quick to arrive at the scene when I requested a quote for installing a new roof. They were dressed professionally and wore their company logo with pride. The quote was fast and the price was fair. After a few phone conversations with Danny, we made a deal, and his team came showed up as expected on the day we agreed. They worked at astonishing speed, removed the entire old roof and replaced it with a meticulously laid new one in just over a day. Danny is a man of his word and can be trusted. I highly recommend City1 for any of your roofing needs, anything from small repairs to major reconstruction of your roof.

I woke up in the middle of a storm to find a leak dripping onto my bed. I immediately went to the Homestars website to find roofers in my area to call the next morning. I was on the phone before 8 AM. City1 was my first choice, given the quality of the ratings and reviews, but since they're not in my area, I figured I'd better call some local companies, too. My call was answered right away, and the guys fixed my roof that afternoon. They had a job in downtown Toronto in the morning, one in Mississauga after that, then they came to Ancaster at the end of the day. They went on my roof, took pictures to show me exactly what was happening, and repaired the job that day, with no mess. Of the others I called, one in Burlington doesn't come to Ancaster, 1 didn't call back, and 2 called late in the afternoon, one indicating that I had called about a quote for a roof, and maybe we could schedule that. Boy, did I make the right call and pick the right guys!

City 1 Roof Works provided us with a reasonable quote and thoroughly explained all the options pointing the advantages and disadvantages of each option. Samples of different shingle manufacturers were also brought in to help us to choose the color and pattern that we like.

A few days before the actual repair day, a crew came to bring some of the materials needed to the top of the roof. On the day of repair, they took extra care to protect our decorative concrete by covering all the areas that might be damaged. The repair job was done with professionalism and fulfilled all the works that were agreed upon. The repair was also finished in the estimated time that they said would be needed. The surroundings affected by the repair were thoroughly cleaned, removing any debris from the repair. The garbage bin that was brought in to hold all the garbage was also removed when they left our premises. All in all, we are really satisfied with the work and workmanship. Highly recommended.

I needed a new roof for my older home. I got three estimates, City 1 Roof Works being one of them. Danny was both professional and approachable; he provided the kind of solid information I needed to make a decision and educated me in the process! Danny and his crew got the entire job done in one day and did excellent work. The materials are high quality and I have a guarantee of his workmanship. I highly recommend this company, they deserve your business.

After visiting HomeStars website we selected City 1 Roof Works as one of four companies to provide an estimate for a replacement roof for our home. Danny showed up as scheduled, provided all requested insurance documents, warranty information and details of the work to be done. His quote was fair and when it came time for the work to be done there were no surprises. Danny was on-site with his crew. They worked incredibly hard throughout the day, their work was outstanding and the cleanup afterwards was thorough. These are the guys you want.

Danny and his partner was right on time for the appointment, they checked ,did a few repairs on my roof and gave me a very honest opinion.

These guys seem to be very hardworking and exhibited through professionalism.

Excellent work and keep it up.

I would recommend this company for those who are looking for complete totality in roofing

Let me preface this by saying that I can be one tough customer. I do my homework, and when I spend thousands of dollars on goods/service, I set the bar pretty high. Danny and his team didn't meet the bar ... they CLEARED it by a mile, exceeding my expectations and standards every step of the way. I wish I could add more stars to this review!

I called out three estimates for a whole new roof and City 1 definitely made my 'short list' due to the reviews on homestars.ca and even more impressive -- that Danny replies personally to each one! An outstanding indicator! Danny answered directly when I called*. He happily agreed to provide an estimate and arrived as scheduled two days later*. He spent 30-45mins thoroughly assessing my roof , ON the roof*!! He was immediately likeable: friendly, comfortable, and approachable*.
* same can not be said for the other two companies I called.

While I was still waiting on the last quote from the third company, Danny's excellent customer service endured. I had him chasing down more answers to my further numerous questions on product, warranty/documentation information. He continually replied right away, and whatever info he didn't have directly at hand, he immediately pursued and kept me promptly informed the whole way along. He was contacting offices and suppliers on my behalf, he was researching and comparing warranties for me, he definitely went the full nine yards and made it clear he was happy to help!

At this point, I was entirely impressed with Danny's customer service and honesty, which left the other two companies shamefully in the shadows. With regards to the price, Danny came in significantly lower than the highest quote, and only a stone's throw more than the lowest price. Considering the company with lowest price was also the one with the poorest (nearly insulting) customer handling, I was happy to sign with City 1 for the marginal extra price. I value good treatment quite highly when I shop around.

When roofing day came, everyone was on time and worked long and hard. Danny and Chuck and the whole team were just fabulous, in general! Everyone stayed safely harnessed which pleased me, and even at the end of a long hard day, they didn't skimp on the clean-up. My roof and all the details look great, and I have every confidence that the workmanship and quality of the installation will prove over time to be every bit as satisfactory and reliable as the rest of my experience was with them.

A whole new roof is a considerable investment, but I am pleased to have spent every penny of it at City 1 where it was so well earned, and my business was appreciated. I genuinely wish everybody's roofing experience could be this good -- and I know it can be if they call Danny! -- so I'll certainly be sure to spread the City 1 love!

I have hired Danny for the past few years to install my Christmas lights. This year he informed me of various problems with my roof that could lead to water leaks and damage. He provided me with pictures of the problems and fixed everything up as soon as the ice was off the roof. I have always been happy with the level of service from Danny and he did a great job on my roof repair! I will definitely recommend City 1 Roof Works!

I called for a quote to fix some shingles the wind had blown off. I got an estimate for $200-250. When Danny arrived he saw how high and steep my roof was and said it would cost $350. He asked me how I'd heard of his company and I mentioned HomeStars and our phone conversation. He agreed to honour his estimate and got right to work. He took pictures to show me some of the damage and the repairs in progress.
