Arsenio responded to our need immediately. He carefully inspected the problem of our roof leaking and provided us with a couple of options to choose for the repair, and effectively fixed the problem.

I have been doing business with Arsenio for almost 15 years now. He responds quickly and answers any questions I might have. He has done multiple jobs for myself and family members. They do excellent work and are very reasonable on pricing. I had issues in the past with OTHER contractors, and then I met Arsenio. He is the only person I trust to do any kind of work for me. He is very honest. If his company can not do the work I am needing, he sends me in the right direction and always follows up with me. Great people to work with!

They jumped in on a roof that had been worked on previously over the last couple years. It was complex work because it's a mixture of shingles, including cedar shake, for decoration. He also took down a dangerous chimney

We bought a new construction home (it was still under warranty) and our builder brought in Arsenio to figure out the source of a roof leak that had begun. He was able to identify the problem immediately and fixed it immediately, too! He was very patient and kind, addressing our concerns, double checking his work for us and it was great to know he cared about finding & fixing the source of the problem for us. We would not hesitate to use him and this company for any and all of our future roofing needs.

Why Hire an ARCO-Accredited Roofer

The difference between "good enough" and proven excellence. Only the top roofers in America earn ARCO Accreditation — recognition of true craftsmanship, ethics, and integrity.

Homeowner Benefits

  • Peace of Mind: Every ARCO-Accredited roofer has been checked against public licensing records, safety records, complaint history, and verified customer reviews.

  • Work You Can Trust: ARCO's evaluation includes manufacturer certification programs — credentials that can help preserve your roof's warranty coverage.

  • Verified, Not Self-Reported: ARCO's findings come from government and third-party sources — state filing offices, SAM.gov, OSHA, and the BBB — not from paperwork a contractor submits about itself.

  • A Public Paper Trail: Every accredited profile publishes its report number, evaluation date, and sources — so any homeowner can independently verify the findings at RoofingContractors.org.

What Accreditation Means

  • License & Registration Verification
  • State Filing & Standing Review
  • Federal Exclusion Screening
  • OSHA Safety Record Review
  • Complaint History Screening
  • Customer Review Evaluation
  • Annual Re-certification
