As the ice/snow on our roof melted during a recent thaw, the eavestrough over our front door was leaking onto our front stoop, ultimately freezing on our front walk during the colder evenings and, thus, creating an unwelcoming hazardous path to our house. A One Roofing came by immediately following my call and did what they deemed necessary to fix the problem. They immediately returned the following day when I reported that there was still some leakage and they dealt with that issue perfectly and amicably. No more snow or ice on my roof, so no way at present to see if the problem has been totally solved. BUT so far I have reason to believe that A One is a trustworthy company who’ll do what’s necessary if the eavestrough continues to leak anytime in the future.

A number of years ago, I was building an Artist Studio for my wife. I hired an architect to draw up the plans, and a contractor to execute the drawings. However, as the project progressed, and as much as I trusted the contractor, I realized that I had no idea whether or not he was doing the job properly. This was a major undertaking for us. Simply trusting that all would unfold as it should seemed liked a foolish way to approach an expensive enterprise. I quickly discovered that calling in my architect to assess the contractor’s work on a regular basis would escalate the costs of the project astronomically. So, how to proceed effectively without breaking the bank? Well, as luck would have it, I met Jay Charendoff, an architect and project manager who offered his services at a fraction of the cost of my architect. Hiring Jay was the best move I could have made. After the contractor had finished his work daily, Jay would show up and assess the job and give me detailed notes on what needed to be changed, adjusted and\or improved. And each morning when the contractor arrived, I was able to intelligently discuss the work that was required. I quickly became “an expert” in the minutiae of construction, and my wife now has “The Best Built” Artist Studio in T.O., thanks in large measure to Jay Charendoff. Sincerely, Ron Singer
