Exemplary Company

WehadAkron Roofing complete a new roof for us in 2021 and then replaced three skylights in 2022. Rod and his team are beyond professional and worked diligently to ensure both jobs happened quickly with no challenges. Rod also came to check the jobs personally after completion and would not accept payment until his check was completed. Akron is an exemplary company and I would highly recommend you trust them for any needs they feel they can fulfil. Well done Rod and team! Thank you for everything!

I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t think to write this review til now as I lost my receipts for the jobs they had done and amselling my home. Called and left a message for Akron to provide receipts and Rod and Deanna [sic] called me to say no problem and gave instructions on how to transfer the warranty to the new homeowners. Above and beyond!

Left a Clean Worksite

Ahomewepurchased developed a leak from damage to our roof that our inspector should have caught. Akron was able to diagnose the problem as well as locate other issues that the inspector missed. This was a rush job and Akron worked hard to expedite the process and move jobs around to accommodate us and get the leaks fixed in our roof saving us a ton of worry. Rodney was very knowledgeable and helpful through the whole process and his crew were hard workers and left a clean worksite for us. They gave a us a great price on our house and our new roof looks awesome!

Professional, Informative and Great to Work With

We’re so glad we went with Akron Roofing. Rod and his whole team are very professional, informative and great to work with. Our roof looks fantastic and the crew did a great job of cleaning up after they were done. Payment wasn’t due until the job was done ensuring we were happy with their work. I highly recommend this company.

Prompt Responses

Working with Akron Roofing is a great experience. Rodney and Deanna give prompt responses, and information. Rodney sat with us and helped us choose a roof that was best for us. We had 2 previous quotes and none were as personal and detailed as with Akron Roofing. Their staff was also very good at what they did and friendly. Thank you for a great job

The Company Went Above and Beyond

"The company went above and beyond. My roof was replaced while I was out of province and when I came back everything was done beautifully and the yard was pristine.The entire work 2as done quickly and the quality of the product installed are superior to what I had been quoted by other companies as well as the workmanship and product warranties included in the deal. I'd definitely recommend Akron for any roofing services and will go back if I need extra work done"

Accommodating to our Needs

"AKRoN did a very good job in replacing our roof. We were away when they did the work, and upon our return everything was cleaned and we had a new roof. The owner - Rodney - met with us twice, explained what the work entailed and afterwards provided details of what was done. Also, he was accommodating to our needs and responsive. Highly recommend them."

Expert Advice

"I'm impressed with Rodney's technical knowledge of the products he represents. He knows the pros and cons of each product and the benefits of one type/brand of shingle over another. His crew were professional. on-time, courteous and fast. Rodney came by 3 times in 2 days during roof installation to check on progress and made recommendations like adding 4 extra intake vents which my roof lacked - at no extra charge He made promises/commitments during the quote process and he and his crew kept every one of them. One detail I liked was the use of a metal W in the valley so water would be directed down the valley rather than up onto the opposing shingle- no one else even suggested this. I'm and engineer and am a stickler for details and I was impressed from start to finish with this roof replacement. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Akron roofing and would certainly use them again (but hopefully won't have to)."

AKRoN Has a Customer for Life

"Akron Roofing replaced our roof almost three years ago. Yesterday, in the middle of a crazy rainstorm, we started to get a major leak down the stove vent. One call to Rod and someone was at the house the next morning, with a follow up call to let us know that if there were any further issues, just call and they would do a full change out of the vent pipe. Wow! We were delighted with the entire installation in the first place, but with this great follow up and responsiveness, Akron has a customer for life. We are very impressed and very grateful that there are folks around who stand by their work. We HIGHLY recommend Akron."

Wonderful and Personal Customer Service

"Rodney, Deanna and the team at AKRon Roofing were excellent to work with. Very professional, knowledgeable, and provided wonderful and personal customer service. I trust them, which is very important when hiring someone to do work on the roof of your home. The crew was hard-working, skilled, and very tidy. It is easy to see that these guys know what they are doing, and take pride in their work.
This is the company you hire when you want safety-minded and qualified professionals who actually care about doing a good job."

Gutters, Soffit and Fascia

"We just recently had our gutters, soffit and fascia replaced by Akron Roofing. They were easy to do business with, offered a variety of payment methods. As soon as the weather permitted they were onsite and completing the installation. The work was well done and it looks amazing. I highly recommend them for any of your roofing needs"

We Were Referred

"We were referred by a friend who used Akron Roofing and we were very pleased with their service; the owner was always available and easy to get a hold of and very helpful in every way. His crew were very careful to not damage anything and took care to clean up after every day and at the end of the job. I would not hesitate to recommend them to do my roofing; Great job and Super Service"

Very Friendly, but Also Professional

"Akron roofing not only installed our new Euroshield roof, which we absolutely love, they also installed new siding on our house. Any concerns we have, they were dealt with immediately. The crews members for both the roofing and the siding were very friendly, but also professional. Owners, Rod and Deanna could not do enough to make sure we were pleased with the work they did. I would definitely recommend Akron Roofing."

Price Was All Inclusive and There Were No Surprises

"Akron did a wonderful job of replacing my roof. A few things really stood out for me:
1. Getting quote was fast and easy, and Rod provided me a professional proposal with several options and walked me through them
2. The lowest price option was still a high quality product. I wasn't looking for the cheapest - I was looking for best value. Rod listened to my desire to eventually add rooftop solar and they removed the traditional venting to go with a ridge vents to give more room for solar. The price was all inclusive and there were no surprises later.
3. Installation started several weeks earlier than I planned. They set my expectations and then came early, which is better than the alternative! They kept me informed every step of the way, when to expect materials and when the crew was planning to show up. I know roofing is a tough gig to schedule with such dependancies on weather.
4. The crew was professional and cleaned up after themselves every day. Our neighbours warned us about their roof replacement experiences and how they got flat tires from all the nails on the ground. We never got a single flat tire on our cars. I found a total of 3 stray nails that they missed over a 1 week period, which is pretty good considering the hundreds of nails they removed!
5. They managed the warranty and paperwork for me. On payment, they were flexible on credit card and cheque. I paid the final payment only after inspection. One piece of flashing was replaced which took another week to source, and paid only when the job was 100% complete."

I Used Them Again

"I used Akron Roofing to replace the roof of my rental property a few years back and was so pleased with their work that I used them again for my own property. Rodney and Deanna are a pleasure to work with! They provided a quote within a week (while other companies dragged out the process for much longer), completed the work in good time, and provided great communication throughout the whole process! I would highly recommend Akron Roofing for all your roofing needs."

Raised the Bar of Excellence

"Akron delivered the 'Wow" factor for us. Rod - President of Akron, arrived at our home and presented us with a folder containing Akron's quote, details about our roof, house and property including aerial photos. The folder for Akron Roofing also contained the provincial License/Registration Certificate, city Business License, Certificate of Insurance, Rod's certificates for Haag Certified Inspector-Residential Roofs, Master Elite Roofing Contractor for GAF, and CertainTeed Select Shingle Master. Even Akron's letterhead identifies all certifications. That Akron folder had everything in it. Rod knew a whole lot more about our roof even before he arrived at our home. Rod did the roof inspection to verify his appraisal/quote and our needs. After the job started, Rod was back to see how the project was progressing. After completion of replacement of the roof and eave troughs, Rod was back to do his on- the-roof inspection and addressed a few concluding details. Andrew, the technician along with his assistant Dominic knew what to do to remove the old roof and install the new roofing materials. Both carried out their reasonability professionally and with a quiet and friendly demeanor. Dedicated care was undertaken to clean up after the job was done. In our view, Akron and it's personnel raised the 'bar of excellence' that truly translates into Akron's mantra of 'Love Your Roof’."

Professional, Knowledgeable and Accommodating

"I can highly recommend Akron roofing. From the quote right up to completion of my roof, Rod and his crew were professional, knowledgeable and accommodating.

Communication and Customer Service was Superb

"This review has been long overdue as we had our roof installation back in November 2021. Anyway, the experience we've had doing business with Akron has been nothing but wonderful. Rodney and Deanna are amazing people. Communication and customer service was superb. We were briefed with everything we need to know and what to expect all throughout. Rodney was highly qualified and was very professional and patient in explaining the process of what we can expect during the work. All in all, it was a very pleasant experience and we definitely highly recommend Akron to anyone needing any roofing service."

What You Want From Any Business

"Rod and his craft are what you want from any business, especially one that the average homeowner finds mysterious and daunting to deal with such as roofing. Had them out to inspect and quote my roof a couple of years ago, then do the install. They were excellent and professional, as well as competitively priced. After a nasty windstorm this year, they came out literally the next day to repair a ridgecap that came off, and did an inspection, all under warranty. Dealing with these guys is amazing and Rod always takes the time to explain and chat about the job. 6/5 stars."

Even with inclement weather the roof replacement was completed fairly quickly and well done. The workers cleaned up every day, there was no loud music or garbage left out - they treated our home respectfully. When the job was complete they did a great job of cleaning the whole yard. Highly recommended."

Prompt in their Response

"We are blown away by the incredible service associated with this company. After installing a flat roof on our residence in January 2018, we have used him a few further occasions to ensure the roof was well maintained and was draining properly. Rodney and his main [flat] roofer (Andrew) are not only highly skilled people but prompt in their response to calls. I cannot fault their workmanship or service."

I highly suggest them amazingly positive experience with this company."

They Paid Attention to all the Details

"Akron did a great job on our new roof! They paid attention to all the details: helping us find the right options at the right price, replacing the roof in stages to keep our home protected during overnight storms, and even power washing the deck as part of the cleanup! I would absolutely recommend them."

They Stand Behind the Products and Services

"It’s always a sign of a great company when they stand behind the products and services they provide. Akron roofing installed our roof in 2016 and a recent home inspection questioned if flashing was present in two spots on the roof. I contacted Rodney and he was at my home within the hour to inspect the roof himself. He verified that the roof was in fact done correctly and has provided documentation for the next owners. I would definitely recommend this company."

What a Transformation

"OMG! What a transformation! There are not enough words. We knew the work this team would have dealing w/a 110 yr old house w/cedar shakes on it for past 40ish years. We were excited to get the Euroshield installed with a shake look to keep the aesthetic of our house & Euroshield because we live in hail alley in S Central Alberta. Some areas needed minor repairs & they were done & it made such a difference. The crew was amazing & the quote is what we paid and it LOOKS FANtastic!!! I think our dog misses the guys. :o}

Can’t Say Enough Good about AKRoN Roofing

"Akron Roofing replaced my roof over 5 years ago, excellent work and I have no issues at all with the roof. I did develop a leak at the chimney area, not new roof related. Called Rod at Akron, he came out and fixed the leak at no cost. Can't say enough good about Akron Roofing. As a retired engineer, being very fussy about recommending companies, I have no hesitation in strongly recommending Rod and Akron Roofing. They provide quality workmanship and go above and beyond with their warranty and support."

Friendly and Professional Service

"Akron replaced our roof two years ago and did a great job. We had a home inspection done and they noted two small Flashing issue/wind damage. Call Akron and they quickly came and fixed the issues under their warranty. I love dealing with a company that don't forget their customers after two years and give them such friendly and professional service. I highly recommend them."

Backed by an Unbeatable Warranty

"Called Akron and a few other roofing companies to get a quote on roof shingle replacement. They all came back with competitive prices for the product I wanted (Gem Euroshield rubber roof) and a co-worker's recommendation convinced me to choose Akron over the other roofing companies. Shingles arrived at my house within the timeline given and the installers were there the next day to begin work. Work was completed in a timely manner and cleanup was excellent - they thoroughly clean your gutters and sweep the property for nails when they are finished. These guys know what they're doing and don't take any shortcuts; any unforeseen issues are communicated and resolved immediately. End result was a beautiful finished product that not only looks amazing, but is backed by an unbeatable warranty. Great job Akron, you definitely have my recommendation!"

Rodney and Deanna Go Above and Beyond

"Rodney and Deanna go above and beyond. We had a couple issues with our home that had nothing to do with the roofing job done by Akron.
Both were preexisting issue, one with our chimney and the other with our eavestrough. Rodney made sure both were taken care of and we are very grateful. They are very quick with communication and the crew was respectful on site. The way they end the process with a bottle of wine is a nice touch. They take a lot of pride in their company and it shows. Their prices are competitive, their products are quality, and the workmanship is excellent.”

Gave a Very Honest Appraisal

"We had some wind damage to our roof, and contacted AKRoN for a quote based on some recommendations on social media. I received a phone call from the owner, Rod, a shockingly short time later, and he came out to my house the next morning to have a look. It took a little while to get the repair done, as the weather wasn't cooperating at all, and we have a very steep & high roof. Once the weather changed, Rod came by and fixed the shingle and gave a very honest appraisal of the condition of the rest of the roof. We were very impressed and will definitely be making use of AKRoN Roofing's services in the future.”

Insurance Saver

"Awesome job! Very efficient workers, couldn't believe how fast they did the house and garage. Roof looks wonderful. Cleaned up really well considering they were working in the snow. For how much our insurance is saving a year the roof will be paid for before the warranty runs out. So not only do we get a beautiful roof we also get money in our pocket.
Great Job everyone. Thank you.”

Absolute Faith This Job Was Done Correctly With No Corners Cut

“We are incredibly happy with the work done by AKRoN Roofing. We highly recommend them for any roof work needed and would not hesitate to use them again if needed.
We did our due diligence and had three quotes from three top roofing companies in Calgary. We chose Akron for the following reasons:
1. Customer Service - Akron was the clear choice in this regard. They provided the most detailed estimate and spent significant time with us reviewing our options for roofing material and the pros and cons of each. They educated us and allowed us to make our own decision with no pressure to use one product over another.
2. Knowledge - Rodney at Akron was the most knowledgeable of all the people who provided quotes. His concern was with providing us with the right product (based on our needs) and ensuring installation was done correctly.
3. Price - All three quotes were within a narrow band, but Akron was more than willing to price match to a similar product and installation method.
During the installation we spoke to Rodney as well as the onsite roofers every day. They always let us know exactly what they were doing, any issues they found, and cleaned up each evening before they left. They had three people working at all times on our job to ensure completion without undue delay.
Additionally, Rodney spoke to both our neighbors before the job started to ensure they could contact him directly if they had any issues. This is just one example of the many things done by Akron that add up to a great customer experience.
Not being a roof expert, it was easy to tell this crew was doing things properly and methodically. We have a parapet with a low angle roof on a small part of our house, and Rodney had his flat roof expert spend an additional 1.5 days (1 day budgeted) on this portion of our house, and with no additional cost. I have absolute faith this job was done correctly with no corners cut.
Regarding the look of the new GEM Euroshield roof, it's hard to take a picture that does it justice, especially since I'm not going up on the roof to get pictures for a google review :-). In person the product looks amazing, and with the quality of installation I believe this roof will last a very long time.
We would give Akron 7 starts if we could. Highly recommended, and once you meet Rodney to discuss your roofing needs I am sure you will have a similar experience to us.
TL;DR This company is awesome and you will not be disappointed if you use them.”

AKRoN's Employees Were Marvellous

~Ron S., via Homestars

Excellent Work

“Excellent work professionally completed with a detailed inspection afterward. They dealt with impending bad weather by working late to complete the work before the snow came. It hampered the cleanup somewhat, but they followed up as soon as possible after the snow melted.”

~Vern, via Homestars
November 2019

I Am Very Impressed

“AKRoN Roofing is quick, affordable, and high quality. One morning I woke up to loud noises on my roof that sounded like metal, so I phoned Akron. Rodney came over right away, and after he looked he said he never saw anything like it. Something had broken into my roof. It bent and tore soffit, pulled off flashing, and made big claw marks. He told me that it looked like a wolverine tried to get it, but determined that it was probably a racoon. Here in Calgary a racoon! Despite the mystery, they fixed it fast and affordably. Two strong looking men came over and patched it up immediately ~ I am very impressed and will recommend AKRoN Roofing to all my friends.”

~Allyse, via Homestars

Always Prompt

“We had an urgent need to replace the roof and a friend recommended AKRoN who put us immediately in priority. Our new roof was done beautifully the following week. Rodney gave a detailed explanation about the products and qualities as well as all the guarantees. Deanne was always prompt in answering or replying to all our questions. The team did a great job and kept everything neat and clean during and after. We couldn’t be more satisfied and happier with the thought that now we have a new and good roof for years ahead. A[sic] you AKRoN for a great experience!”

Totally Professional

“Very friendly staff - the people in the office, the guys working on the roof, the owners... everyone was pleasant and personable. I especially appreciated them working around the scheduling of my deck construction. There were a few attempts at setting a date and eventually we found one that worked. Most of the work was done in 1 day with a couple of add-ons (gutter and vents) done within the week. Totally professional and care was taken not to damage my lawn or deck. Very happy with the whole experience.”

Honest and Reliable

Pleasure to Deal With

"Got a new roof installed and supplied by AKRoN Roofing.
They did a great job. They took less than two days to complete the removal and installing our new GAF shingle roof. They were excellent to deal with. Very professional and a pleasure to deal with. We would highly recommend them."

Very Impressive

“Akron came and gave us a quick quote. They first came out and did a roof measurement without getting on the roof, but using a device to get an accurate measurement of the roof square footage in 3D. Then Rodney came out and explained what they did and what product they have with a price for all three types of roof materials. They explained what they would do and what products they can offer. Their price had little to no extras, so what you saw is what were charges. Once we agreed to have them come and do the job, it was very quick, considering it was winter still. We placed an order for which colour and type of roof we wanted and within a few days the product was delivered. They came the next day and installed the roof on the entire house in one day. They worked quickly and were very good at cleaning up afterwards. All I can say is it was very impressive at how professional the whole company was from top to bottom. Thank you Rodney and Akron”

My Roof is Beautiful

“AKRoN Roofing did an outstanding job on my new roof!
It was in need of replacement. Rodney from the start was professional, caring and helpful. He measured the roof and noted any improvements that would benefit me, and also the damage that I had. Rod came prepared with samples of the shingles they offer and I compared them for the colour perfect for my new roof. He assured me that the roofing job would be clean and quick, and it was. AKRoN Roofing crewmen cleaned up the job site each day and left my yard in perfect order each night. My roof is beautiful and my experience couldn't be better. I would recommend AKRoN Roofing and Rodney to anyone.”

Always Available

“We were very pleased with AKRoN Roofing and that says a lot because we tend to be very picky customers. Rod, the owner, met with us, was always available to answer questions, and was very professional from start to finish. They ripped off the cedar shakes in one day and shingled with the GEM rubber product the next. We have a large roof and that was very fast. We expected 3 to 4 days. The crew was very hard working. There were no surprizes and they stayed on budget. They suggested a few extras, that were very helpful and made our roof look stunning. They exceeded our expectations and we would not hesitate to recommend them. Great job guys!”

Did a Great Job with Care and Professionalism

"AKRoN Roofing tackled a very complex roofline in difficult weather conditions, and did a great job with care and professionalism. The roofers were friendly, happy to answer questions about the procedure, and worked diligently until the job was completed. I am very satisfied with the results, the roof looks spectacular. I have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone."

Very Efficient

"What a great company! VERY EFFICIENT! Rod was very professional and walked us through the whole process. We have had a couple of very bad windstorms since the roof replacement and not one shingle has blown off! Highly recommend AKRoN Roofing."

Continual Jobsite Management

"The re-roofing project performed by AKRoN Roofing met and exceeded all our expectations from cost estimating, materials selection, through installation to follow-up upon job completion. The Installation Team was excellent, great attention to detail and thorough site cleanup. AKRoN Roofing provided continual job site management which we really appreciated; it took away the stresses of having re-roofing done. The project was completed on budget, on time and the new roofs look great. There is great comfort and security in having a good new roof overhead. We recommend AKRoN Roofing based on the results achieved and because of the AKRoN Roofing’s Personnel."

Such a Positive Experience

“We were so impressed with AKRoN Roofing. They were here to do an estimate within an hour of us calling them and we had our quote a few hours later. It was such a positive experience and it was a matter of days between calling for an estimate and our roof being completed. They were very knowledgeable and professional. Would highly recommend them.”

The AKRoN Roofing People Are Our Friends

"We engaged AKRoN Roofing to install a rubber product roof on our large acreage home plus an outbuilding. AKRoN Roofing delivered a great looking roof, on time, on budget with lots of AKRoN Management onsite attention and a hard-working, very professional installation crew. Delivery of a great job in such a professional and personal way totally met and exceeded our expectations. The AKRoN Roofing people are our friends who helped us through one of the greatest homeowner stresses, that of roof replacement. We thoroughly endorse and recommend AKRoN Roofing."

Everything Went To Plan and To Budget

"AKRoN Roofing has just finished my roof installation. The roof looks great, the install team were excellent the whole task was completed in one full day. Rodney explained the whole process down to the last detail. Everything went to plan and to budget which was well within the range of quotes I obtained. This was truly an exceptional and pain free experience. I would definitely use AKRoN Roofing again if required and will be recommending them to friends that are roof hunting. Thank you Rodney and AKRoN Roofing."

Great Company, Great Crew

"Our roof was a job most roofing companies would cringe at - if you can get them to take it on at all! A 12-pitch roof, with a 3-storey drop, requiring cedar shingle removal. The crew took it on with a vengeance, and even with the weather dropping to -10C, they worked every day, with the exception of one when the roof was too slippery from the snow that fell! And that day, they still came by and apologized that they couldn't work as it was unsafe. Excellent work ethic.We took our time to decide on our final product and Rod and Deanna took my inquiries and answered my questions. They even did up sample boards for us to see the difference between the shake and the slate look. We ended up going with the black Euroshield® Harvest Shake with the thicker caps, and it looks fantastic. Great company, great crew."

Tremendous Work Ethic

"Our first encounter with AKRoN Roofing was at the Calgary Fall Home Show. Deanna was very easy to talk with about redoing our roof and showed us the different products they offered, then agreed to have someone come out and assess our roof. Rod followed up and was truly professional as he talked about our project and the roofing industry. He was thorough in all his explanations and went over the products they used and explained them all to us. He then provided us with an estimate for three different levels of shakes fully explaining the qualities of each level. He thoroughly went over their work process and how they would install all facets of the roof. After considering all out options we hired AKRoN Roofing. The work crew was exceptional. They had a tremendous work ethic and were very respectful of our yard and the neighboring yards during their work. Their cleanup at the end of the day was thorough and they ensured that all the items that had fallen off the roof during the taking off of the old shakes and the installing of the new ones were properly dealt with and disposed. They showed up when they said they would and were very good at communication with us at the various stages of their work so we knew what to expect. We had a wonderful positive experience thanks to all the AKRoN Roofing employees and would highly recommend them."

We Will Happily Use Them Again

Very Polite and Committed

"Just wanted to say we had a great experience with Rod and Deanne with AKRoN Roofing. They were quick to respond and helped us get the roof done quickly and efficiently. The crew who did the work were very polite and committed to getting the job done on two of the hottest day of the year. They were really great with handling our neighbours and we just really appreciated the overall professionalism we experienced with the whole experience."

Surpassed All Expectations

"We can't say enough about how pleased we are with AKRoN Roofing. They surpassed all expectations with regards to quality of product, timing, service, professionalism and price. We were actually quoted quite a bit more from another company for the same product. Their staff was punctual and professional and they completed the work when they said they would. And they did a fantastic job cleaning up our front and back yard. There isn't a nail or piece of scrap from our old roof to be found anywhere."

Personal, Professional, and Kind

"My roof was in a pretty poor state and I knew that another winter was going to give me a few sleepless nights. I contacted six companies in November 2016, four returned my call, two didn't. I had promised AKRoN Roofing back in 2011 that when I needed a new roof I would contact them. One company pestered me for days after meeting with them, so of course they did not get the job.Rodney is a true gentleman. He personally came to my home, sat and explained everything that I needed to know, gave me choices, and without pressure showed me why I should hire his company to keep me safe dry and warm for the next 20 plus years. He was very kind with his estimate, meeting my budget and those of other companies that I had received quotes from.It was during the last ten days of November 2016 that the weather changed for just a few days, the temperature rose and the sun shone, and AKRoN Roofing was able to build me a fine new roof. Because the days were shorter the men Andrew and Brent, only had a short window to work in and were only working for about seven hours each day but they were amazing and completed the roof in just four days. By the end of the Friday afternoon everything was back to normal, not a nail to be found! The next week Rodney came to inspect their work, he checked out the attic and assured me that everything was in order. It was so nice to be able to go away over the Christmas and New Year knowing that my house was secured and safe under a new roof from AKRoN Roofing.I have already recommended AKRoN Roofing to my family and friends, knowing that if they decide to purchase a new roof from Rodney they too will be 100% satisfied.Thank you Rodney and Deanna for the professional way you conduct your company."

On Time and On Budget

“Akron did an excellent job replacing our cedar shakes with hail and wind-resistant shingles, which is essential in Calgary; they don't even offer "disposable" low end products. The quote was detailed and they provided in-depth information on all of the options. Very knowledgeable and experienced group with friendly professional services. The project was completed on time and on budget, as promised. Even better, they were able to schedule it for when we were away for a weekend; the only signs I've found that they were on site are a beautiful looking roof, and ONE nail. I heartily recommend AKRoN Roofing.”

The crew that came to reroof were polite and worked through 2 hail storms to ensure that our house was protected. When they left, not a nail was left behind!Rod spent time with us picking out the best product for our budget! He came back at the end of the job and sat down with us to ensure everything was up to his standards and to answer any of our questions. Their workmanship and professionalism is second to none! HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend them to anyone needing a roof!!!! Rod was fantastic with helping us navigate the ins and outs of our insurance claim!"

Kind & Generous

"During the high winds of November, 2011, we lost some shingles from the south side of our roof. We waited until MAY of this year for the adjuster from the insurance company to come and take a look. The roof where the shingles had been was covered by a small tarpaulin that another roofing company had provided at that time. The insurance company turned us down for a new roof, so that meant we had to find someone who would come and replace a few shingles for us. The previous company who had covered it for us last November was not interested, only in putting on a new roof. I called three roofing companies (who had delivered their flyer to our mail box) all on the same day. Within an hour or so Rodney called us, he promised to send someone to look at it, and within 24 - 36 hours Andrew rings our doorbell, takes a look and in less than 40 minutes we had our shingles replaced! Meanwhile, we still waited for the other two to call us….After Andrew had left, an hour or so later Rodney calls. This kind man told us that there would be no charge for the shingles or the labor. What an amazing blessing this was to us as seniors. Thank you Rodney for your kind generosity, and we will certainly contact you again when our roof needs replacing. We wish you and your business much success and favour with all of your clients in the future. We hope that you will be able to find time to take that much needed vacation with your son!"

A Refreshing Experience

"THANK YOU so much for providing such top notch service with reference to my recent roofing needs (October 2014). I felt such a sense of integrity, honesty, knowledge and understanding of the roof replacement process through you; from the moment of our first contact to secure the estimate to the completion of replacing my roof. Your team provided the values, integrity and work ethic for which you have based business upon; a refreshing experience in a world that does not share the same values today. You have a wonderful team of professionals; your wife Deanna who provided a positive experience processing of the paperwork involved; Adam and Caleb for the overseeing the project and especially Zurab and his team; Givee and David, who demonstrated excellent work ethics, working such long hours to complete the job – THANK YOU!! I very much appreciate each one of you. If anyone should ask about my roof, I will have no hesitation in recommending you to them. I wish all of you a Very Merry Christmas and Prosperous New Year."

Certainly Recommended

"After getting estimates from several businesses, I found a flyer from these guys in my mailbox and gave them a try. I was instantly impressed by the pair of fellows they sent out to look at my leaking roof, who gave me a no-nonsense run-down of costs. They also saw the government-issue CADPAT jackets hanging in my front entryway and told me the owner sometimes gave discounts for military personnel. I was very impressed by that. The owner in fact came out to talk during the work. He was personable and never came off as a huckster – he has obviously been in the business for a while and spoke eloquently about the technical merits of the materials he was providing, why certain work was being done, etc. He was very candid about what I did or didn't need and I never felt like he was trying to sell me the most expensive materials or cheapest labour. The workers were all bonded and my yard was cleaned up afterward to my satisfaction. Nothing was damaged. I would certainly recommend this company to anyone else."

Enjoyable Experience

"I thoroughly enjoyed my experience dealing with Rodney and the entire team at AKRoN Roofing. We obtained quotes from several roofing companies to replace our shake roof. The quote provided by AKRoN Roofing was the most comprehensive quote we received. It even included aerial photos of our house from several angles. We opted for the G.E.M. Inc. EuroLite® rubber roof with a slate profile. I had several questions about the product and installation and Rodney was able to answer them all. I felt very comfortable with our selection. We signed the contract Thursday evening and the crew from AKRoN Roofing started work the following morning and the job was completed by Saturday evening. There were no surprises or additional charges and we were impressed with the quality of both the product and the installation. The crew cleaned up as though they were never there.We have since received several compliments on our new roof and I would confidently recommend AKRoN Roofing to anyone."

Highly Recommendable

"AKRoN Roofing did an excellent job replacing my roof. Very professional in handling all aspects of the job estimate, very competitive pricing and doing the job when promised. Very qualified staff that the owner Rodney Gabrielson assembled. Upon completion of the job they left my house in immaculate condition. I would highly recommend AKRoN Roofing both to all members of my family and friends."

Very Pleased

"Thank you so much, we did receive your cheque. I just wanted to let you know that we are very pleased with your company and the work that was done. Your employees were very courteous and friendly. Rodney impressed me from the moment he introduced himself. We lived in Cedarbrae for 20 years in the same house. We had our roof done twice while living there and the service wasn't even close to what we received from you. There was garbage all over, nails all over and they had to come back several times to fix it and it was done by two different companies. I have no problems recommending your company to others.Have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year."

Safety, Quality & Competitive Pricing

"To all my Calgary friends, this may not be of any value to you right now, but if you are in the market for a new roof, read on. We had our roof replaced last week and I am sending out this email to recommend the roofing company. The company is AKRoN Roofing and the owner's name is Rodney Gabrielson. They were recommended to me by a friend - thanks Brian! Rodney arrived and the first words he said was that he runs a relatively small company, takes care of his guys and takes pride in putting safety first. I didn't really believe this at first, knowing that the roofing industry generally has a bad reputation when it comes to safety, however, his crew were wearing gloves, eye protection and harnesses. I was truly amazed. They crew working on my home were a team of 4, most came from Georgia (Cacusus region), but language was not a barrier. They were hard working, steady and did a top notch job. They kept the place clean and tidy and did a fabulous job of cleaning up at the end. Not one nail or piece of debris was left behind after the 3 day job. The price was also competitive - so it is possible to get safety, quality, and cost in a successful job. The entire job was run well and professionally, truly amazing and great to see as there are a number of shady contractors out there. They do business by word of mouth and value referrals. If you have any questions, please give me a call."
