Incredible job

Dear Lon Smith Roofing,

I wanted to tell you how impressed my wife and I were with Trey Bailey when he responded to my call regarding a residential roofing job we needed done. Lon Smith did an incredible job on the roof and I was very impressed with Trey. After my wife and I met with him the first time, we agreed we were not going to get other bids. We both agreed we wanted Lon Smith Roofing to re-roof our home. Trey was very knowledgeable and personable, and he provided detailed easy to understand answers to our questions. We were very impressed and wanted to make sure this was communicated to the company on his behalf.

Thanks,
Lee B

To Whom It May Concern:

To say it has been a pleasure doing with business with Lon Smith Roofing would be an understatement. Every detail was seen to from the salesman, Chris Cook, to the last nail being removed from the yard to leaving things as you found them.

Remarkable and Efficient

Mr Payne was wonderful - the roofing crew, remarkable and efficient. They answered all my questions. They worked together like a well oiled machine. There's no way you could improve on any of them. You are all the best.
