Was delighted to have quality work done in a timely manner. Especially considering the demand in the construction industry right now where sometimes even getting a call back seems like an oddity. Will return for future roofing needs.Dana Hubbard2021-03-10Pete was vert professional and easy to communicate. Made it easy for us and I recommend them to all future customers.Jandos Yerkhanat2021-03-04I am very satisfied with their work and their work ethic. Job was done in a timely fashion. Customer service was not lacking, every time I would call I would get an immediate response. They went beyond the usual for me and I would recommend them highly!! Thank you Peak to Peak Roofing!!Grace Barbera2021-02-05My realtor suggested Damen at Peak to Peak for a roof replacement through our insurance. We were on a timeline to sell our home, and Damen was an absolute rock star. He answered the call on a Sunday night, showed up for an inspection and helped us through the process - getting the entire job done within a couple short weeks. The roof looks amazing, and Damen also met with our insurance adjuster and added the gutters and garage door. I can't say enough about the professionalism, communication, availability and work that Damen and Peak to Peak provide. Give them a call - you won't regret it!Chase Piker2021-02-01Peak to Peak Roofing did a great job on putting new nsulation in my attic. Never left a mess. Would recommend them to anyone who needs this type of workDaryl Otwell2021-01-26They were very helpful in getting repair done in a timely manner. They also painted the house.
