Summit Solar & Roofing reviews

The Verdict
Summit Solar & Roofing will replace your roof on time and leave you with solid workmanship, but you'll need to stay on top of cleanup and follow-through yourself. We found 101 mentions of reliable installation quality, and reviewers consistently praised the finished roofs. One homeowner had her roof replaced three years running and used Summit every time because crews were friendly and thorough with cleanup. Communication shines during the sales phase. Representatives like Ian and Anthony walked customers through insurance claims, fought for higher payouts, and kept homeowners informed at every step. 121 reviews highlighted responsive sales conduct, and we noticed several stories of reps negotiating thousands more from insurers than the initial offer. The trade-off: post-install cleanup can be inconsistent. We saw reports of nails scattered in yards weeks later, forgotten tarps in attics leaving debris on insulation, and one crew that left a work trailer blocking a driveway for hours. If you want an installer who'll handle your insurance claim and deliver a roof that holds up, Summit is a safe bet. Just plan to double-check the yard yourself before the crew leaves.
If you're working with insurance and want a rep who'll fight for a fair payout, Summit's sales team earns their keep. Just expect to supervise cleanup.
3 Stories That Stood Out
Hector L. had his roof replaced in December 2019 and, after the work and a pandemic-induced delay, dug back into what had actually happened during the job. He chose the company largely because Thomas C. stepped in to handle the insurance side — Thomas negotiated with the insurer so the replacement moved forward under policy coverage with only the deductible to pay, stayed friendly and non‑pushy, and kept the family informed through the whole process. Thomas also arranged for new rain gutters at no charge, and the finished roof itself has performed well with no ongoing issues. The sticking point turned out to be the onsite supervision. A crew member created a roughly 3x3-foot hole in the ceiling of the couple’s 18‑month‑old son’s room. When the onsite manager, Carlos, returned that evening to prepare the damage, Hector grew worried about disturbing the old popcorn ceiling and possible asbestos; Carlos brushed the worry off, saying asbestos only matters if it’s wet. Hector stopped further disturbance and escalated the concern to Thomas. Thomas and the company owner came the next day, apologized, and had the ceiling material tested; the lab confirmed asbestos, though abatement wasn
Kathiren hired Summit Color and Roofing to replace a hail-damaged roof on a home that’s already had three roof replacements in the past decade — and this time the experience stood out as far better. She worked closely with Ian House, who guided the project from start to finish: he inspected and thoroughly documented damage to the roof, gutters and siding, took the lead with the insurance company, and secured substantially more money than the insurer first offered. Ian explained each step, stayed in steady contact so she always knew what was happening, and handled the paperwork and negotiations that could have been a headache. The crew finished the job to her satisfaction, and the combination of careful documentation and persistent advocacy is what made the difference. She plans to call Ian first for any future work on the house.
Mel M. had a roof replaced nearly two years ago and ended up with a solid roof but a rocky installation experience. They praised Thomas for being easy to work with and noted the finished roof looked good, but early in the job they caught two crew members drinking at lunchtime — one even behind the wheel of the dump truck — and reported it to Carlos. The two men disappeared after that; Thomas cleared the crew and, according to Mel, those workers were dismissed, with Carlos checking receipts and beverages the next day to make sure the crew stayed sober. The crew completed the main work in about three to four days, but they overlooked painting and the flashing around the chimney; Mel had to call back and the company sent two guys to finish those details. More aggravating were the cleanup problems: the crew left nails scattered across the property and piles of garbage in the front and back yards. The crew picked up some debris but missed a lot, forcing Mel to call repeatedly; a neighbor who had their roof done afterward experienced the same slow pickup, with trash sitting for more than a week. What stuck with Mel most was the combination of seeing workers drinking on site and then a t‑

What You Can Expect
After a piece of flashing on a roof vent started flapping every time the wind picked up, e e called Summit Solar & Roofing. They got a rapid response: Nate showed up, walked them through the issue in a friendly, straightforward way, and had the vent secured in under two hours from the call. Having had Summit replace their roof in 2023, they already trusted the crew’s workmanship and appreciated the quick, competent follow-up. The thing that stuck with them was the under-two-hour turnaround combined with Nate’s clear, hands-on explanation.
Dan has had to replace his roof three years running; instead of shopping for someone new he kept coming back to Summit. He found each company representative to be open, honest and trustworthy, and crews consistently arrived and completed the work on schedule. The teams were friendly on site and left the property spotless — the cleanup felt thorough every time. The detail that kept him returning was simple and concrete: dependable, on-time crews and careful cleanup across every job.
Daniel Mesta has relied on Ian at Summit Solar & Roofing as his go-to roofing contact for nearly a decade. He has repeatedly turned to Ian because he shows up on time, treats people with kindness, and brings clear expertise to every job. What kept drawing him back was Ian’s way of walking through the process step by step—patiently answering questions and explaining details so nothing felt mysterious or rushed. Over years of work, that steady communication and reliability became the defining feature of the relationship, so when a roof issue appears he knows exactly who to call.
Bob Steger has relied on Summit as his go-to contractor for years, calling them in after hailstorms to repair his roof. He found their crew consistently professional, efficient, courteous and technically skilled, arriving on time and doing the work cleanly. Once he files the initial insurance claim, Summit steps in—coordinating with the insurer, managing estimates and repairs, and making sure every instance of hail damage gets fixed. The thing that stuck with him was how Summit removed the insurance headache and saw the job through to a complete repair, which is why he won’t hire anyone else.
William had his roof replaced three years ago and has yet to see a single leak. He walked away impressed by how well the job has held up — the roof remains watertight three years later, which is the clearest sign of the company's workmanship and reliability.
Susan discovered wind damage to her house and Summit Roofing & Solar stepped in to handle everything. They navigated the claim through Allstate so her homeowners insurance paid for the repairs, then coordinated the removal of her solar panels, completed the work, and took care of the cleanup. She was impressed by their efficiency and attention to detail — Joe and his crew managed every step — and ended up with a repaired roof and nothing left for her to do.
Eva found the company's work on her solar installation went far beyond the usual contractor experience. She watched the team actively push on her behalf—advocating, problem-solving and literally fighting for the customer's interests—so strongly that she would give them twenty stars instead of five. The memorable takeaway for anyone considering them is their readiness to take up a customer's cause and follow it through to a solid outcome.
After storms and a tornado brushed close to her Aurora home, Lindse discovered damage she hadn’t noticed: part of the roof was missing. A Summit representative, Tyree, knocked on her door with a complimentary inspection, found the hole, and the crew quickly put a temporary cover over the opening—an immediate relief given Colorado’s summer rain and hail. She watched Kevin, Nate, and Tyree take charge from that point: they communicated clearly through every step, coordinated with her insurance company, and even got several repairs approved that weren’t in the original scope. The entire roof replacement, including removing the solar panels, wrapped up in just a few days, and the team reinstalled the panels shortly afterward, working carefully in the heat to avoid any harm to the new roof. What stands out most is how a chance knock turned into a full-service fix—temporary protection, rapid replacement, and insurance work that expanded the covered repairs—so the emergency never became a long, drawn-out hassle.
Angel hired Summit Solar and Roofing for a full roof replacement and to have his solar panels removed and reinstalled, and the project moved along more smoothly and quickly than he expected. He watched the crew handle permits and negotiations with his insurance company while Joe P and Juan F kept him posted, Mae checked in as the customer rep, and Chase — the roofing specialist — took the lead on getting approval and managing the roof work. Chase and the crew tore off the old roof and installed a new one in two days, and the solar array went back on two days after that. The installers also cleaned up thoroughly, picking up nails and hauling away debris, which Angel noticed and appreciated. The lasting impression was simple and specific: clear, steady communication and a tidy, two-day roof job that dovetailed into the solar installation.
