As many others have said, no one looks forward to having to replace a roof...and we were no different! However, after having several roofing companies tell us we probably needed a new roof, we chose Bates Roofing LLC. Although we live in Lacey and Bates is located in Puyallup, we figured that for a roofing company to remain in business for over 40 years, they must be doing it right...and they were willing to come down to Lacey!
After sending Bates an email requesting they check out my roof, I received a prompt reply from Brad, saying he could come down the next day. He arrived on time and after crawling around my roof for half an hour, he confirmed what others had told me...I needed a new roof. The next day I had an email from Brad with three bids with different qualities of materials as well as warranties...and all three bids were lower than other bids I had received. I chose the mid-range bid as it offered me an excellent product with a roof at a price I could afford.
A week later, Jose brought his team of professional roofers down and within two days, completed the project. Joe, the 'project manager" came down several times to "oversee" the work as it progressed, as well as to give it a final inspection.
Each and every representative of Bates the we encountered, either personally or on the telephone, was completely professional and represented Bates Roofing in an exemplary manner. The roofing crew was extremely conscientious in caring for our property and, in particular, for the landscaping surrounding our home. The overall organization of this project was the best I have ever seen, from the initial meeting with Brad through the actual roofing led by Jose, to the final inspection by Joe. The end result is a roof that looks great and will serve us well for many years into the future.
In conclusion, I don't think you will go wrong if you chose Bates Roofing, LLC for your next roofing project.
