Couldn't be happier with this experience. We received a fair quote and the crew showed up as scheduled and just got to work. Communication was great and Seamus was very easy to work with. Everyone wore masks and observed COVID protocols. It's a huge relief to know that this job was done right. Highly recommend.

Extremely happy with Collins Roofing. We knew our roof was near replacement time when we first started looking for roofers, then our recent rains made clear that the old roof was not doing its job. Mike Collins came out, carefully explained the condition of the roof, gave us a quote, and then he patiently answered my many, many questions. The references were glowing, as were all the ratings on the various sites I checked. Collins stands by its workmanship, works with a stable crew, not subs, and the owners are on site during the whole job. They were Covid safe, kept our surroundings clean

Very happy with the repair and the service. Seamus came out and gave us a quote and answered all our questions. They were able to do the work a few days later. Everyone wore a mask and followed social distancing guidelines. Would happily recommend them and if we need work on our roof again in the future we will definitely use them again.

We happily recommend Collins Roofing - they did a great job on our steep roof, atop a two-story home. We had a complete tear-off down to skip-sheathing, installed plywood, then a roof and new gutters.
Recommended by a personal contact, Collins was the mid-priced bid of the three bids we solicited. We liked the longevity of their company and that they keep their workers year round, building their expertise and teamwork. It is a generous way to run a business.
They used a series of large, experienced crews that executed quickly. Collins handled the interface and payment with the different teams

Collins Roofing did a splendid job giving us a new roof in June. Most contemporary shingle styles wouldn't have looked right with our house and Seamus helped generously with advice and sources until we were set.
He worked with the scaffolding people to ensure that they avoided key plants when setting up. Everyone wore masks on the job when they were anywhere near anyone else, with no attitude about it. Scaffolding set-up took a day, tear-off took a day, installing sheathing and a little roofing took a day, the rest of the new roofing took a day, and then we were basically done. Three

Collins Roofing was great.
Seamus was very patient before we signed the contract because the roofing needed to coordinate with solar insallation in Berkeley. It was a couple of months in discussion.
Seamus, his brother, and son and the rest of the crew did an excellent job. Organized, efficient, and clean up each day. They did roof repairs and painting where needed. Recommend them highly.
The entire crew wore masks and distanced, which was very much appreciated.
Again, high recommendation!

They installed a good roof, in a difficult situation due to roof-mounted radio antennas, although I had to work in cincert with them on that.
However, they ignored or "forgot" my specific instructions for installation of an attic vent. I had taken into account the orientation of the house, the position angle of the sun winter and summer, the prevailing weather and the layout of the interior of the house for the location. So I have a roof vent in a sub-optimal location.

Seamus just came by my house to inspect a leak in my sunroom. He showed up right on time and was very pleasant. It was only minutes before he found the sources of the leak and sealed them...FREE OF CHARGE.
I had to write a positive Yelp review before I forgot to. Collins Roofing was recommended by my neighbor and I'll be sure to recommend them to my friends and family who live in the East Bay.
