    Roofing By Bruce is an excellent and professional roofing company!
    I highly recommend their comprehensive services to all in the Allentown area! From first call to final wrap up, Austin provided an easy to follow breakdown of all costs
    … More ,and time line of work that was to be done as well as an education on the materials that I could choose from.
    His crew were very skilled, polite and very conscience of the clean up process, not one nail or piece of scrap shingle was left behind!
    Austin kept the safety of my home and his crew in mind when it came time to schedule the job, making sure that inclement weather would not interfere with this process.
    We allowed a dump trailer and some materials to be positioned in place the day before the job started, so that the whole job could be completed in one day!
    Great Job Roofing By Bruce

    Austin was friendly, fast and efficient. I don't know how he did it, but he cleaned the chimney from the inside without a speck of soot in the house.
    I'm already planning future jobs with Roofing by Bruce.

    Professional, responsive and competitively priced. They came for a cleaning and Albi was courteous and on time. He left the workspace clean. About a month later when I had an issue with the wood stove I called and Albi came out the very … More next day to take a look. They were able to locate an issue and provided a fix on the spot. He explained my options and how to prevent said issues in the future.
    I would highly recommend Bruce's.
