By Jim Singleterry

With so many roofing contractor options in the Greater Seattle area, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for you. Trying to narrow down your options can quickly become overwhelming.

It’s no secret that having a good-quality roof on your home is important. So, you want to be sure that the roofer you’re choosing will do a good job at a fair price. It’s important to choose the right roofing company for your needs because each roof is unique and so is each customer.

This article will compare Patriot Roofing and RoofSmart. At RoofSmart, we want you to make the best decision for your home, even if that means not choosing us. 

Often, when we're at someone's home we hear that they are also speaking with Patriot Roofing. In the spirit of transparency, we wrote this article as an apples-to-apples comparison so you, the homeowner, can make an informed decision. 

This article is meant for residents of the Greater Seattle area to give you an in-depth look at the differences between two local roofing companies.

This article will cover these categories for each roofing company

  • Roofing and Other Services
  • Reputation and Customer Reviews
  • Warranties
  • Pricing
  • Ownership

To keep things fair, we are using public information from company websites, online review sites, and other public web pages. 

The goal of this article is to help you easily compare State Roofing and RoofSmart so that you can make a well-informed decision on which roofing company is the right fit for you.

What criteria make a good roofing company?

  • Roofing and Other Services: A good roofing contractor offers a wide variety of services to best meet all of their customer’s roofing needs. This includes roof replacement, roof repair, and maintenance. They might also offer other services like gutter, siding, or framing installation. 
  • Reputation and Customer Reviews: A good roofing contractor will have excellent customer service, which is reflected in their overall reputation and in the online reviews that people leave about them. Having high ratings and many 5-star reviews indicates that the roofing contractor and their services are valued by their customers. 
  • Warranties: A roofing contractor that does good-quality work is willing to stand behind it with a solid workmanship warranty. The warranty shows the customer that the roofer has confidence in their roofing abilities and demonstrates their willingness to make things right if they make a mistake. 
  • Pricing: A good roofing company is honest and transparent about their pricing. They are able to clearly explain how much your roof work will cost and give you a proposal with line items rather than just one lump sum. Some companies also provide information about pricing on their website—this can look like an automated tool for estimating replacement costs or content on the website that explains pricing for different services.

To keep things objective and fair, we used an AI summary of Valentine’s reviews to get a general overview of their reviews. In addition, we looked through their 5-star and 1-star reviews to get an idea of what people were saying on both ends of the spectrum.

If we see that anyone has had a less-than-satisfactory experience, we reach out as soon as possible to find a way to fix the issue. 

Even if the customer does not wish to respond, we want to make sure they know that we value their feedback and are prepared to make it right.

Here’s an example of what you see when you fill out the Instant Estimator. These prices are based on a 1,900-square-foot home in the Seattle area with a moderate slope:

Ownership

In 2021, Jim called in his friends John Campopiano and Nestor Martinez to join him as owners of RoofSmart. For the past 14 years, they have continued to grow RoofSmart to new heights by focusing on getting to the root of each homeowner’s roofing issues.
