This place deserves no stars!! Honestly i have nothing good to say about the company itself or the staff (inside the office). Literally the worst company someone could hire/ work for. Pete is so unprofessional! Do not waste your time or money with this company, the worst !

My husband and I absolutely loved our experience with Scudder Roofing. Our experience could not have been better. The people at Scudders used excellent quality materials, with experienced workers, and are very nice, patient, friendly, hardworking, professional, and kept their word. Our roof looks simply fabulous.

We first met with Javier, Project Consultant, who explained the process, styles of roofing, potential costs, estimated time to do the job, warranties, payment schedule, and much more. As we were emailed the 19 page contract, and more, I read every word and had numerous questions.

I'm so surprised at the negative reviews. I found every aspect of the project to be very professional. The estimators were professional and presented us with materials about the roofing we chose. They were on time, neat, cleaned up after each days work. The office was knowledgeable and friendly with every encounter.. the foreman and workers always announced their arrival and departure. We were very happy with them and highly recommend.

I contracted with Scudder roofing to install standing seam roofing on my new home. I have been very pleased with their professionalism and expertise from the initial bidding to the completion of the project. The entire team always delivered what was promised in a timely manner. Communications were promptly responded to as were any concerns that arose along the way. I would certainly recommend them to anyone seeking roofing services. Thank you to everyone that was involved with the project.

I've been lucky to have found Scudder roofing for my standing seam metal roof. From initial visit from Chris, the sales rep, guiding me through the process, and being knowledgeable about the product really helped me be at ease. Next, in dealing with the installers, Hernan & Armando, two guys with a specialty knowledge, integrity second to none. They both answered any question I had throughout the project with NO hesitation or "wow this guy is always asking something". No shortcuts at all and attention to detail was exemplary! C.O.O Jen was always available and understanding

I am a repeat customer and want to pass on how much I appreciate Scudder's responsiveness, professionalism and skill in addressing some complicated roofing issues recently. I recommend them highly for any kind of roofing projects.

Since my bad experience previously stated, I had a visit by the owner. After a sincere apology and genuine contriteness, I am convinced that my experience was due only to one employee--who has since been made aware of how customers should be treated. Moreover, I am convinced that this was an isolated instance and it would be unfair to condemn the entire company for one employee's behavior.
Accordingly I no longer think my original evaluation reflects this contractor's service capabilities.

From start to finish our experience with Scudder Roofing was seamless. Everyone in the office, with whom I spoke, were kind, courteous, patient and very knowledgeable with regard to ANY questions that I had - and I had many. I had the wonderful pleasure of having Jaime and Leo as the installers of my new roof. They worked non-stop and we're constantly keeping me in the loop as to what they planned to do each day as well as went over the work they had done at the end of the day. I could not have imagined such professionals as the two of them. Leo would clean my property at days end and I

I had Scudder Roofing replace the roof on my home. The reason I picked Scudder Roofing was the salesperson Gabe. Gabe came by 2 or 3 times, always made an appointment and was here on time. He fallows up with any questions I had in a timely manner. I liked the fact that Scudder was a large roofing company with good insurance. The reason this was important to me was the eves were quite steep and the back side of the house was a couple stories high. Before the project started Gabe set up a meeting with the Job managers, Francisco, Abel and Israel. This meeting was to develop our

Just want to give a shout out to Scudder Roofing.
We have had them both install a skylight a do 2 minor roof repairs. When we had a question about some moisture in the skylight, they were right there with a solution.
We like the fact that they do a honest job and don't resort to shortcuts or gimmicks.
All jobs were done in a timely manor and came in on budget
They pride themselves on being the best and we agree, they are.

Working with Scudder Roofing was my BEST experience ever with a contractor. After spending years remodeling the interior of our home, it was time to finally replace the original shake roof. My experience with the entire Scudder team was top notch.

Ray, the sales consultant not only made sure he stayed within my budget, but also brought samples out to my home and gave me referrals to homes to look at different colors so I could make an educated decision.

The install team was beyond professional. It just happened that one of the biggest storms in years occurred during my install. Carlos&apos

We hired Scudder Roofing to replace our 26 year old fiberglass shingle roof for two reasons.

First, Scudder has a well deserved reputation for professional work and excellent customer satisfaction. Secondly we had a 13 year old Solar power array that had to be removed and reinstalled following our roof replacement. Many other roofers in our area claimed to do roofing and "also" would do solar. My wife and I wanted a "one stop shop" and Scudder was the obvious choice.

The roof replacement and the solar power array were replaced on time and at the cost quoted to us. Permits

I had 3 appointments to get an estimate. I waited at home and was never met. Poor business practices with no consideration of my time.

The first appointment was in the morning. I waited an hour. Nobody came. When I called, they said there had been an emergency and the didn't call me yet because they were thinking my appointment was in the afternoon.

The second appointment, someone called on the day of the appointment, prior to the appointment, and cancelled related to an emergency.

The third appointment, I called when they were an hour late. The accountant answered, didn't know anything

Update and new review, don't see how to edit my old one. Once Pete Scudder and other executive type people were back from vacation, things went very professionally! There was timely followthrough, I was kept informed of what was happening and when. Work was completed this morning! Everyone was polite, professional and cleaned up after themselves daily. Thanks to Pete Scudder, Javier, and Santiago and the other young man from Cal Brushworks, and Jennifer for setting up. I will recommend your company now and in the future. Appreciate the professionalism!

One of the best things I have done this year was to decide on hiring Scudder Roofing for my roof replacement project! I actually started getting estimates from various companies in my area LAST year. I was very impressed with Ray V. in that he never rushed nor pushed me into signing a contract. Nor, did Ray ever sound impatient with me when I followed-up and reached out to Scudder 8 months later!

Carlos Cortes was the foreman on my job. Carlos arrived EVERYDAY punctual, and with a smile on his face. Carlos works extremely hard, and did an excellent job on the carpentry work that needed to be

RUDE, THIS PLACE IS A FRAUD!

Came out, did nothing, said they would return the following day to do the work, never heard from them. TWO MONTHS LATER, received a bill for $187, when I called to question it Jennifer Scudder actually ACCUSED MY MOTHER OF LYING about what happened when her roofer showed up!! She is unsure of what to do about the bill because her guys have a different story, and ended up reducing from $187 to the $125 service call fee. Really? Clearly from these reviews they are unconcerned with how their customers feel, or their reputation. MANY other roofers in town, don't

Well, they came to give us an estimate... despite my specific directions to our home which is shown incorrectly on Google Maps, they managed to have trouble to find our home for 40 minutes. It only takes 1 minute or less from Hwy 1 to get there..
They then never contacted us to furnish the estimate that they came to make. No call, no nothing. In my mind, this is indicative of the service I would expect; so have called another roofer to work with.

One of the worst businesses in Monterey, of any type. Poor service,
excessive prices and pugnacious management.
