Hickman Metal Roofing Inc – Roofing Contractor in Jacksonville, Florida

They just finished installing my roof today. Looks fantastic, and they did exactly what I paid for. Ed was great to work with and the crew was knowledgeable.

I am not very happy with this company. In less than 10 years my roof is completely failing and the company doesn't care. They talk a big talk about how good their roofs are but having a roof go bad and do thousands of dollars in damage is pitiful and very dishonest. In addition to needing a new roof, the roof deck underneath and the paint on my ceilings has so much damage and rot that it is going to cost thousands more to fix the damage that they caused by not installing the roof correctly. I caught their worker cutting corners and doing a very poor job during the installation, Don the owner came out and had a few words with him the next day and things seemed to improve but when I was up in my attic a few months later I noticed that the guy never cut-out and put the ridge vent in. Having ventilation is one of the most important things you need in your attic so I had to call a city inspector and it is on record. I was sure his installer covered up more secrets and all my hunches were true. Over half of the screws can be pulled out by hand and there is so much damage underneath to what was once a good roof that I've had one estimate to replace the roof and all the bad would would be around 25,000. All this for a roof that is only ten years old. The leaks actually began a year ago. They came out twice to fix it but just as incompetent as they are installing a roof, they are no better at fixing one. I contacted Don one more time and after he kept blowing me off for over three weeks I knew I was on my own and will have to pay a more honest and competent company to redo their work and fix all the damage that they have caused. I would beware of letting this company do any work for you unless you like putting on a new roof every ten years and having additional thousands of dollars in damage to your home to fix too. As a roofing contractor they should be ashamed of the sloppy and inferior work done, as people they should be ashamed for charging someone to put on a roof that caused further damage than before they touched it.
