Vargas Family Roofing And Exteriors

We are totally pleased with the outstanding excellent work that Vargas did for us. They put in a beautiful new roof, including taking out the old 2 layers of shingles, and putting in new wood and vents, and putting in the new roof. They also replaced all of our eavestroughs and put in an extra downspout, and the eavestroughs are attractive and wider than our old eavestroughs were, to better accommodate water flow. The work was done on time. One of the many outstanding aspects of the work was the excellent telephone service. We could always reach Vargas easily by telephone, with a real person talking to us, and the initial estimate was done for us when we requested it, which was 2 days after our initial phone call. The service was friendly and courteous. We are very satisfied with the price. We recommend Vargas to everyone who wants to have roof and/or eavestrough work done. I cannot say enough great things about this wonderful company.

A BIG thank you to Vargas Family Roofing, Elian, Jennifer and the crew for a great roofing job!

My husband did an extensive research and had over 9 quotes from different contractors. Vargas was not the cheapest, nor were they the most expensive but very competitive in the middle. What sets Vargas apart from the bigger roofing companies is the rapport between Elian, Jen and the homeowner. They personally came to talk to us and discussed what we wanted. Both Elian and Jen know their stuff. In addition to the roof replacement, there is aluminum above the windows at the back of the house that bends and makes LOUD popping sounds when it flexes in strong winds. I asked Elian for his suggestions on fixing this. He didn’t have a solution right away but promised to come up with one.

Over the next few weeks, we asked for several changes from a few of the contractors. In comparison, I know Vargas was not overcharging for any additions like the other contractors. For example, I asked for aluminum drip edge around the entire roof. Most contractors were asking for an additional $350 and up, and if you wanted the black or brown color instead of the standard silver aluminum color, there was an additional $75 charge. Vargas’ price in any color for the entire roof…$135!!! That is a reasonable price considering that a 10 foot length of drip edge in any color is around $15 at your local hardware store (did I tell you I did a lot of research). It was fair pricing, no gouging for every additional change.

Vargas showed up right on time. They covered the ground with tarps and protected the windows and air conditioning unit from damage. As promised, Elian came up with a solution for the aluminum above the windows. Jen let me in on a little secret…that Elian lost sleep thinking about a solution – now that’s dedication.

On the second day, the job was completed…so we thought. Apparently the supplier had accidentally shipped single layer ridge caps instead of double layer ridge caps. I could not tell the difference visually but Elian showed me that the double layer has an extra thicker double layer making it more durable than the single layer. Some contractors would have just installed the single layer ridge caps on the highest parts of the roof where the homeowner could not see the difference from street level. I asked Elian why didn’t he just install the single layer caps? He responded that HE would know that he did not do the right thing – now that’s integrity!

The Vargas team came back to finish the job and it looks BEAUTIFUL! They cleaned up and swept the ground for stray nails and even put back the patio table, chairs, umbrella and BBQ back on the patio for us.

I noticed that they missed re-caulking some of the aluminum above the windows that they fixed. When we mentioned it to Elian, he replied that he ran out of caulking and he would be back to fix it. A couple of days later, Elian showed up to caulk the windows. I asked why he didn’t just go to the local big box hardware store around the corner to buy caulking. He showed me the caulking he used and it was not a brand that you can get at the local big box store. Elian said it was professional stuff which would stick and was more flexible and would last a long time compared to that other stuff.

If you want a team that knows what they are doing, a team that cares, a team that is honest, fair, has integrity, and does a great job, then choose Vargas Family Roofing! Oh and they gave us a bag of delicious Costa Rican coffee beans – thank you!

Thanks again to Elian, Jen and the crew at Vargas Family Roofing for a spectacular job well done!

I had my roof re-shingled by Vargas and not only were they professional but they did a great job. Jennifer was very friendly and helpful and the work was cleaned up and completed nicely.

We had substandard builders who worked on our house using substandard materials and as a result we’ve had a lot of issues with the roof. Vargas came and patched an area for us after a neighbour recommended them and they did a great job. When another part of the roof went, they even came back and patched it at no cost. I don’t think it had anything to do with the work they had done and they just did it as a courtesy to us.

Vargas patched a portion of our roof and discovered where raccoons had been getting in. They repaired their entrance but the raccoons ended up getting in again. Vargas came back no problem and patched it up a second time. They were really willing to help with the problem, they didn’t leave any mess or garbage on the lawn and and the roof looks great.

Vargas was recommended to me by a friend so I had them redo the roof of my house. Everyone on the crew was great. They were professional, on schedule, on time and the shingles look excellent.

Vargas Family Roofing did some eaves trough soffit and fascia on my house and everything was excellent. They were a very professional company and we would definitely use them again.

I had 4 quotes for my roof. Eilian was the only one that took the time to understand my roof condition, and communicate thoroughly to me. Price was competitive, and the crew were PROFESSIONAL. On time, clean, stellar work, and my roof looks amazing. Best roofer in Toronto....period.

Vargas Family Roofing and Exteriors had completed a number of homes in our area. They came highly recommended by all our neighbours. Elian was quick to provide an honest assessment of our roof and a fair estimate. They were able to fit us in within a couple of weeks. They completed the job in a timely manner and paid special attention to ensuring they left our property in pristine condition. We appreciate their work and their attention to detail. We are more then happy to provide them with an excellent review.
