After a bad storm we had leaks in two rooms. Southern Star came out fast, tarped it the same day, and had a full replacement scheduled within the week. They handled the details professionally and the workmanship is excellent. Highly recommend.
Professional, punctual, and honest. They didn't oversell us — they told us what we actually needed and delivered exactly that. The magnetic nail sweep at the end gave us real peace of mind with kids and pets. Five stars without hesitation.
From the start, the appointment was handled professionally, and the inspector arrived right on time. He was polite, knowledgeable, and refreshingly honest. After a thorough roof inspection he didn't try to sell me on issues that didn't exist. That level of transparency speaks volumes.
