I had an issue with a leak around the vent stack. When I contacted Universal they responded immediately, sent out a repair crew and promptly fixed the problem. I couldn’t say enough good things about the service.
Paid $18,000–20,000Reasonable priceRoof repair for storm & wind damage
Is this place still in business? Called numerous times over the past 10 days and left messages with no return call and no one answers the phone. This company replaces our roof but have had subsequent leaks.

We recently had Universal Contracting replace our roof with a beautiful new concrete tile roof, and the entire experience was outstanding. Our project manager, Geoff Wheat, was fantastic—professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer questions. He made the process smooth and stress-free from start to finish.
