ImageFebruary 17, 2025 Advantage Constructionroofing0

A strong and well-maintained roof protects your home from the elements, keeping your family safe and comfortable. When it comes time for a roof update, some homeowners consider layering new shingles over their existing roof instead of tearing it off completely. While this approach may seem like a cost-effective and time-saving solution, it comes with both benefits and drawbacks. Before making a decision, it’s important to understand how this method …Read More

Aleksander Rudenko was in charge of my roofing project from start until finish, about a year and a half ordeal. He was very personable, helpful and truly passionate about his job. Couldn't have asked for a better contractor! Thanks Alex and Advantage!

We had a great experience with Bruce and Advantage Construction. The project was completed in a timely manner, the team was professional and friendly. Bruce was exceptionally helpful, highly communicative, and professional. I'd recommend Bruce and the rest of the Advantage team for anyone looking to hire for exterior projects.

We had a great experience working with Devin and Advantage Construction re-doing our roof after the hail last year. They were very friendly and helpful in choosing the right product for us. They made working with insurance a breeze. We did end up doing some upgraded materials and adding gutters that we didn't have before as well and it was very easy to get that all handled even with the insurance claim.

The crew they used were fast and efficient and did a great job cleaning up after they competed the work. Devin checked in with us multiple times through the process and even after the work was done to ensure everything was as expected he was great to work with. We would highly recommend Advantage.

In the Spring of 2024 Jason Popov knocked on my door to see if I needed a new roof. Of course I said no, as I am very skeptical of door to door salespersons. He returned a few weeks later and explained they would do a free hail damage inspection. I had hail damage and they gave me an estimate, I agreed for them to do the work. It was the best decision I have ever made, Jason was the perfect project manager, stayed on site all day and worked tirelessly with my insurance company. I ended up with a perfect new roof and zero problems. So if he knocks on your door, hear him out you wont be disappointed.

Brian was an absolute professional to work with! He had to navigate us with our insurance agent who wasn’t responsive and yet very helpful and tenacious with the agent! Great work and the house is beautiful from the craftsmanship of the workers!

Our Project Manager Rob Southerling was a true professional! From initial contact to job completion, Rob had our best interest in mind. His ability to work with his installers and our insurance company has provided us with a first in class roof and seamless Insurance experience. Rob had great communication with us every step of the way. He has a fantastic personality and made us feel extremely confident in the process. I would recommend Rob and Advantage Construction to all!

Aleks Rudenko served as project manager and did a great job, especially in dealing with the insurance company. They initially found damage to 2 shingles on the house roof and damage to 2 sides of the house and the garage. Aleks demonstrated that the shingles were no longer available, and they agreed to replace shingles on the entire roof. The insurance company agreed to replace the siding on two sides of both the house and garage and suggested that painting could provide an exact match. Aleks successfully argued that this would destroy the low maintenance feature of vinyl siding, and the insurance company agreed to replace all the siding. Aleks convinced the company to do the work that resulted in restoring the exterior of my house! The restoration went smoothly.

This is a well overdue review but I initially had my roof inspected by Tria and another coworker. However, my roof was not eligible for an insurance claim at that time. Months later after a storm came through my neighborhood, Tria reached out to me out of the blue and helped me with the process of submitting a claim for my roof! I'm a happy customer with a new roof!

He helped me through the entire process, start to finish and worked with my insurance continuously! I have already referred him to multiple people and will immediately hire them again.

Advantage Construction was terrific from the start, and our roof was done on time, as described, within budget, and it looks great! The team was very efficient, and when they left there was no evidence they had been there, except for a great new roof. Our project manager, Devin Bliayang, was an excellent communicator who walked us through every step of the process, and I could not be more pleased with our working relationship. I would happily recommend Devin and Advantage Construction to anyone as a great option for a new roof.

Advantage construction was easy to work with for our new roof. Robert S kept us updated on the project status and was always available to answer any questions. Robert went above and beyond working with the insurance company when I did not have time to contact them. Construction team was very respectful of property and our yard was left in great shape with no leftover debris. New roof looks great and we have received compliments from neighbors.

Brian Martin, Brett Larson and the Advantage Construction team went above and beyond to make sure everything was done right when it came to our roofing and gutter replacement after a hail storm. With having both traditional pitched shingled roofs, as well as flat roofs they made sure two different crews were sent out to make sure the jobs were done right. Brian also went above and beyond to help us with some other potential projects and construction repairs that will need work down the line. Definitely recommend!

My small project for siding repair and new window was addressed well from estimates to finding products to match, ordering and finishing the project in a timely manner. Dan and Keshaun were there while I was away from home. Keshaun, as project manager, was excellent at communicating with me for each step and for deliveries of products. He was professional, friendly and courteous.
I enjoyed working with Advantage Construction CO.
