Really appreciated the thorough explanation of my existing roof and the things taken into consideration during the replacement. They took tons of photos before/during/after that were shared with me on a Google link which made it easy to share with my insurance company. My roof took one day which was glorious! I had gotten a few bids and they were not the cheapest but somewhere in the middle, the difference was the quality of things like drip edge, flashing addressing old pipes. None of the other companies even talked about that stuff so costing a little more (wasn't a lot) was totally worth it. They even removed my old swamp cooler. My garage is detached so we didn't do it at the same time, when I do I'll definitely use them again.

Exceptional experience with this company from beginning to end of the process, which is unfortunately very rare these days. Showed up on time and did excellent work. Pointed out items that other companies who bid the job missed, and didn’t try to add them on simply to charge me more. This company is experienced, affordable and does beautiful work. Highly recommended in every way.

Jose was quick, efficient for the work he did. Also he was respectful of the plants he had to reach over to complete the job. And he cleaned everything up afterwards. Loved it and would recommend him to any and all who need work done!!!

We had Jose from Go Pro Roofing come out to give us a bid on doing Leaf Gutters. He sent me a bid which was very reasonable and we booked our appt for May 2024. He cleaned out the gutters before installing the gutters and took pictures of everything before, after and during the install. He showed up when he said he would and cleaned up after. He did a very professional job.

It’s unfortunate roofs don’t need to be replaced often, I would use Jose and his crew every time and refer them to everyone I know without hesitation. Jose took time to teach, explain, and answer questions. Throughout the process, and even with random things after, Jose went above and beyond. They were fast, clean, and thorough - even the neighbors commented on the speed and attention to detail. Good character, competitive pricing, fantastic work.

Jose and his guys were awesome! We had a leak coming in our front door. They diagnosed the problem and fixed it and several other spots too. Very professional, cleaned up after and they did a great job.
