Van Drunen Roofing

Summary:
Local roofing company in the Chicago South Suburbs.
My particular situation was that I purchased an older home, with a steep pitched roof, where raccoons had caused some damage to the shingles, underlayment, and plywood.
Good:
Very reasonably priced for the amount of work done to my house.
I was very satisfied with the options I had for my particular roof. It didn’t seem like they put the same type of materials, shingles, style on each type of roof whether I wanted it or not. Since my house is an older house, I wanted to keep the materials in line with what had originally been used on the house and the Van Drunen contractor was willing to work with me on that.
I never had a problem with communication (price, style, time frame). Since it is a smaller company, the contractor who quoted my house was also the contractor who managed the work on the house. When they ran into something unexpected, they communicated it to me, which was appreciated. There was no surprise billing that came after they had started the work, or surprise modifications that needed to be done in order to complete the job. Since there was raccoon damage, and not just wear-​and-​tear, I was really worried about surprise costs. I felt the contractor was pretty aware of the scope of the job before he started. There was no surprise when I got the final bill.
Job completed in time quoted.
Bad:
Since this is a smaller company, make sure to plan ahead. They can come out and give an estimate, in my case, within two days… but don’t expect them to start tomorrow. Its best to get an estimate first and see what your options are… when they have openings. Once they start, they work fast.
Conclusion:
Great company, completed a very complicated project in a reasonable amount of time, for the exact price I was quoted upfront.
