Erickson Roofing

They did an excellent job for us. I was impressed by their attention to detail.

Very good job done, friendly and professional crew. Good at clean-up after the job too.

Before I get into the negative aspects of our experience, I will preface this review by saying that Erickson Roofing did eventually complete the job they set out to do, and almost a year later we have not had any issues with the quality of the actual roofing job that was done. Overall working with Erickson Roofing was an incredibly difficult and frustrating experience. First, when we officially signed on to have them do our roof at the end of August 2015, they said they would be able to start in 3-5 weeks, but didn’t end up starting until late November. This should have been no more than a 2-3 week job according to roofers that we’ve talked to since this experience (including the extra work they had to take care of because of some rot they found under the old roof). It ended up lasting over 3 months. I know the job is weather dependant, but some days they wouldn’t show up on site until between 12pm-2pm, and then wrap up and call it a day by 3pm. Other days they just wouldn’t show up at all, despite there being good weather and them having made a commitment to show up for work that day. On multiple occasions throughout the project the wrong materials were delivered to the site, which inevitably set everything back by several days each time this happened. The tarp job they did on our workshop while the roof was under repair leaked on two separate occasions, completely drenching everything inside our workshop and destroying the counters inside. To their credit they did replace the counters that were damaged, but not without us having to ask them what they were going to do about it first and pushing for them to be replaced. They also skipped out on putting a drip edge on several areas of our new roof, which thankfully we noticed, and insisted that they install the drip edge to complete the job and give the roof a finished look. They did eventually install the drip edge to complete the roof, but only after we hassled them to do so. If we hadn’t noticed and hadn’t hassled them, I’m sure they would have walked away without finishing the project and still charged us full price. The workers were rude and crass and completely unprofessional. This maybe isn’t surprising in terms of what you can expect from roofers — but at one point near the end of the project I offered the roofers a cold craft beer to say thanks for their work, to which he responded by calling it “one of those queer beers” (obviously completely ignorant of the fact that my partner and I are a same-sex couple, but come on it’s 2016. No one should talk like that, in particular in a professional context). They neglected to think ahead about any sort of clean-up job, throwing all old roofing material off the roof directly into our yard. We have two dogs, which they saw every time they showed up. This left small bits of shingle and nails everywhere. The clean up job they did on site was ridiculous, but by the time they had finished with the roof we were so fed up with getting the run around, and getting excuse after excuse from them that we decided it was easier and less hassle to take care of any remaining on-site clean up ourselves. We are still finding bits of shingle and roofing nails in our yard to this day. It has taken us awhile to post a review because it was a very overwhelming and difficult experience for us as new home owners, one which we were ready to just be over. We also wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt — maybe this project was just a one-off that went sideways for them. If that were the case, we could at least understand it. However, they have since worked on the roof of at least one of our neighbours, who has had an even worse experience, including receiving threats from Erickson. I very much regret hiring Erickson to do our roof, and if you’re looking for a local roofer I suggest looking elsewhere.

I couldn't be happier with the job Erickson did on my house. They were great to deal with from start to finish. They were accommodating with dates and a shingle-colour switch. The workers showed up on time and were wonderful, personable guys; they made sure I was awake before listening to music, carefully moved birds' nests, and were great with details. When other guys came to install our new skylight, they even fixed two downspouts they noticed needed re-attachment to the house. This was above and beyond my expectations. And Erickson came in $1000 cheaper than other quotes we received. It was a pleasure to deal with this company and I highly recommend them. Thanks, Erickson!

Couldn't be happier: they arrived when they said, very polite, extremely capable, fabulous attention to detail and even went above and beyond. Our flat roof is now safe and gives us peace of mind. Thanks to Kelly Cudney and Blake Erickson for their fabulous team.
