From Our Customers

“ If I could give 10 stars I would, it was well done and a very cooperative company. I would definitely recommend Watertight Roofing. ”

Jason Peterson

“ I got Dave’s contact information from a friend when it started raining inside the house. Dave came out the same day and declared it an emergency situation because the roof was quite simply Rotten. There was water pooling in the attic, warped and buckling boards and ill fitting flashings. Dave explained everything to me with photos as well as a plan to fix it. Within 5 days materials were ordered, delivered and we had a whole crew that completed a whole new roof in one day! Just in time for the next rain! I was so impressed with Dave’s professionalism and quality work that he will be my go to Roof guy when problems arise! ”

Amy Shattuck

“ I can’t say enough good things about Watertight Roofing! After a recent storm, my roof was severely damaged, but dealing with my insurance company was frustrating and time-consuming. Luke at Watertight Roofing stepped in and handled everything—working directly with the insurance company to make sure I got the coverage I needed for a full roof replacement. They went above and beyond, documenting all the damage, explaining the claims process, and following up on my behalf. Their persistence made all the difference, and without their help, my insurance company would have covered much less. Once the insurance was settled, their team got to work quickly and did an excellent job. ”

Jennifer Harmon

“ They did a great job. Very thorough, completed in a day with very good clean up.The crew was friendly and polite. Luke was very good to work with. He followed up on everything. ”

Duff Jensen

“ We were extremely happy with Luke and Watertight Roofing. We were well taken care of during the entire process from beginning to end. This is a company you can trust with your home repairs. They will listen to your concerns and take care of you as if you were their family. ”

Paula Nelson

“ “Dave Wakehouse was instrumental in capturing and relaying the needed information to our insurance company regarding the hail damage to our roof. Dave assisted us in picking out the replacement roofing, and the crew did a great job of installation and clean-up. Dave and his crew’s attention to detail made us glad we used Watertight Roofing.” ”
