"I cannot recommend this company enough. We had hail damage to windows, siding & gutters and fought insurance for almost a year. I contacted Big Red and within a week they stepped in and started working. They took over the insurance claim, the crew was polite, and they finished ahead of schedule. The work is amazing!"
"Big Red was great. They checked my roof for leaks and fixed some interior drywall and ceiling problems that the leak had caused. Honest, fast, and the price was fair. Would use them again without hesitation."
"They replaced our roof after storm damage, then we decided to replace our old deck and put it under roof. The crew showed up early and worked into the evening to finish quickly. We are now enjoying our new deck every day!"
