I have had the pleasure of working with John Gallagher, owner, of Exterior Designers, Inc. (EDI) several time over the past twenty years. I first met John as a young new homeowner. We needed a roof and also were in the market to replace the outdated aluminum siding. I always begin a job with at least three estimates, and we were working within a budget.

Dale at EDI in Downers did the roof on my house 9 years ago (2002). I was very happy with the work. Recenly I noticed that the roof really didn't look right and water has been coming in for a while. Because of this, Yelpers- you will see lots of remodelers reviews in the coming weeks. I called Dale and he immediately knew what the issue was. Turns out there is a manufacturing defect in the shingles. He sent me the class action lawsuit paperwork over email and followed up with several phone calls to walk me thru filling out the paperwork. He removed the shingles needed to ship and he has been great making sure I am taken care of!
