Roof Maxx Reviews

My roof was done 8 years ago by The Third Estimate. Seeing the ads for a free inspection, I called Roof Maxx. The salesperson went up on the roof and told me I had missing and broken shingles and they could take care of it for $6,000. I thought the roof was still under warranty so I told him I wanted to call the installer first.

Third Estimate came out today and showed me pictures that there is absolutely nothing wrong with my roof and no shingles are missing or broken. I am retired and feel the salesperson from Roof Maxx would have redone my roof when it didn't need it.

Thank you to John Socco and Third Estimate for being honest.

Just had this done, so I can’t speak to the longevity of the product, however the cleanup around the house needs to be more thorough. After they clean the gutters, which is done using a power washer and scrubbing the roof to get it cleaned, you end up with a lot of grim on your decks, railing and around the house.

Too much was left and not properly cleaned. Grimy decks and railings which could have been sprayed off with the power washer. Waiting for them to call me back to see if they will come and make this right.

I called them yesterday to ask if my roof would qualify. It's 17 y.o. and I'd like to know if they'd do it and if so an approximate cost. Hare I'm expecting an inspector and they send a salesman and boy did he try to sell, to get me to pay for the whole amount right then.

My roof is less then 1000 sq ft and the price he gave was 4650.00. I drug my ft and told him what my expectations were for today, inspection not sales. Then he gave me some crap about people cancelling and needed to fill slots and if I did that the price dropped $350.00. I told him again that I was going to look around for other offers and suddenly he was calling the owner getting me a commercial price and it dropped to $3000.00.

Then I just flat out asked him why he first tried to sell it to me for an extra $1650.00 and escorted him to the door. The whole experience was like dealing with a desperate used car salesman.

I wish I had read more reviews before I purchased.

Our biggest problem was granules falling off the roof onto our deck and sidewalk. Our roof is only 11 years old, but it was getting to the point where the granules were getting into our pool.

Roof Maxx came out and said their treatment would, "overall" take care of the granule issue and pretty much eliminate it. I will say the crew of two guys were prompt and they came out and did the treatment. They also repaired a couple of issues by some of our vents.

However, the granule issue persisted and seemed to get even worse after the treatment. I called and they did come out and reapply the treatment. But again, the granules continue to fall off. I have pictures of them on my deck accumulating in piles! My insurance company is now telling me I have to replace my roof because it's in "poor condition." This was after I already paid $5000 to get Roof Maxx's application.

I'm now facing non-renewal or cancellation if I don't replace my roof. Ugh! Total waste of money that I couldn't afford to lose! And I certainly don't have $15-18,000 for a new roof!

Live and learn the hard way. Again, don't waste your money!

The crew did not complete the work as promised. On the first attempt they did not even remove leaves and debris before spraying the treatment. They made no effort to reach dificult areas of the roof with treatment. Many areas of the roof were missed and thus got no treatment. The roof tuneup was not completed as they left areas ungraveled Roof jacks were not maintained as stated in estament. We never have recieved an after job report and only got the warrenty after many calls and complaints. I have tried twice to get Roof Maxx Corperate to respond to my complaints. NO SUCCESS! It seems they dont give a crap about their customers BUT only the money.

Let me start by saying that I'm skeptical when it comes to ANY business that relies solely on Facebook or business cards on a cafe wall for business and advertising.

A few months back, my Dad mentioned something about wanting to have Roof Maxx applied to his roof. I didn't think anything of it, but I did wonder where he got the idea.

One day, after looking at his roof, I noticed that it looked sound and healthy during the harsh weather periods we've experienced. Many residents in the area were replacing their roofs and with beautiful results. My Dad told me that he had his inspected and went with Roof Maxx.

The roof on my 22-year-old home looks pretty sound. I inquired about the cost of an application of Roof Maxx and was surprised at the cost compared to dealing with replacing a roof that has been long exposed to the elements with no application or inspection.

Yesterday, my Dad surprised me by having Roof Maxx applied to my home’s roof. It looks like any other roof, but time will tell how the application holds up. Our main roof faces west and is exposed to high winds and searing heat or icy squalls depending on the season.

With homebuilding not being what it used to be, and the current push to for renewable energy sources for the home, the door has been flung open to numerous predatorial scammers that prey on homeowners by enticing them to get the latest and greatest 'money saving' product. Unless a homeowner takes the time to do the research, they will undoubtedly be a ‘meal’ for anyone that wants to sell them anything if it gives them a feeling that they’re making a sensible, although costly, choice.

Before signing ANYTHING for anything at all, know the business. Research the business and ask for references. Check their background information thoroughly. Anyone can walk up to your door with a tablet and a photo of your home and tell you everything about your home; what you paid for it; when it was built; etc…

Once they ‘wow’ you with a tidbit of information, they will work you over to see where your interest lies on maintaining a sound investment in your home… They may even give you a business card and walk away. Or they may decide to work with you on the spot by selling you peace of mind, stating that you would be doing yourself a favor by listening to more of what they have to say.

Before anyone complains about the integrity of a product, take a look at the vendor that sold you the ‘product’. Are you really getting what they claim to be selling, or are they simply showing you a product container and claiming it’s the real deal? It happens… several times a day.

Do your ‘homework’, before you trust anyone else to do your ‘homework’…

I am just investigating the product, force to choose a star rating to post, but felt compelled to post what I learned from these reviews:

1) Debra has severe challenges with basic logic, is on a mission to damage the company reputation, and is possibly a troll from a roofing company trying to damage a competitor.

2) Others who claim they applied it themselves are not even talking about the same product, since it is not available for DIY at all.

3) As with any contractor, be careful of the contractor you choose -- although since dealers are given exclusive territory, you probably don't have a choice of contractors.

4) Read all contracts and warranties before purchasing service, not after. This applies to ANYTHING. If the contract/warranty language is bad, don't buy.

I'm much more interested in some kind of observable result over years based upon what the product is SUPPOSED TO DO, not reviews from people who are reviewing the wrong product, or who are ignorant of basic physics.

The concept of the product makes perfect sense, the question is does the claimed science actually work as described. Hoping I can find reliable answers to that question eventually.

Roof Maxx will not honor its warranty!! I had the treatment applied, 2 months later hail damaged my roof .

Warranty states , wind or hail ! Well hail damaged mine then Roof Maxx told me “ it was an act of God” really? Everything that happens to a roof is under act of God !! It’s a scam.

Salesman was very high pressure - product is very expensive in the end - single story 2 bdrm modular ranch style home with 2 car attached garage was over $6,500.

I wouldn’t waste my money on Roof Maxx. Based on their flyers and advertisements it states “Infused with micro-beads, Roof Maxx penetrates shingles restoring their flexibility ,durability, and waterproofing abilities, allowing the shingles to better withstand weather conditions, and blunt force”!!!! Wrong!! Another ad actually states HAIL. I paid $3,000.00 for their product, expecting it to do what it stated, wrong...

Three months after the application we had a hail storm, my roof had to be replaced because of dents in the shingles’s . My insurance covered a new roof but with a $2,500.00 deductible. I thought Roof Maxx should have paid for part of this deductible . Wrong!! They told me hail was an act of God. Then why have Hail and blunt force in their ad if it’s an act of God and they aren’t helping me. Total lies in their advertisements, and then they double talk, so they don’t have to cover anything. I’m 72 years old and I believed what the sales staff told me along with ads!!!

After the work was completed the warranty was E-MAILED to me, so I could read how they cover nothing!! Buyer beware. On another note, their product was supposed to even out color on roof. That didn’t happen either and yes I have pictures!! Debra DiBiase
