Chris Smith and Driftwood Builders Roofing are a great choice if you want a high quality, professional and efficient roof inspection and installation. Chris conducted the most thorough inspections of the companies I contacted. He coordinated my project from beginning to end, was here for insurance adjusters, and was onsite to evaluate the progress of construction. His customer service skills are excellent and kept me informed throughout the repair process. I highly recommend Chris and his company for any roofing repairs you might need. I have replaced several roofs in Texas and Driftwood is a cut above the rest! They will get my business in the future.

What an amazing experience! Chris and Nicholas had great communication, we're highly professional, and their workers were efficient, fast, and cleaned up all the leftover debris. I have already recommended them to my coworkers and friends. They also worked directly with my Travelers insurance and made sure the claim was approved.

Twice in the past four years Driftwood Builders Roofing promptly replaced our roof (and gutters / spouts) after hailstorms. In both cases, Nathan performed an inspection within a day, coordinated with our insurance company and solar panel firm, and managed the work with excellent communication. The first project replaced the original asphalt roof with metal; the second, after a more severe (!) storm, replaced the metal roof.

Tom did a great job of getting my roof repaired after a bad hail storm. He and his crew were professional and great to work with. He met the insurance adjuster at my home and discussed any issues with him at that time. He also handled any contact with my insurance company. Great experience.Paid Insurance deductible. I like the look of the shingles, color and ridges.

Nathan’s service was excellent—attentive, friendly, and highly responsive. He helped us secure a larger insurance reimbursement, and provided thorough support from start to finish, including thoughtful follow-up after the job. The crew was professional, considerate of neighbors’ access, completed the work on schedule, and left the area spotless. Highly recommended!

Nathan and his team were excellent in navigating a large, complex project. He was punctual, thorough & guided me through the process. He and his team did great work from start to finish, and left our home/ work site clean and safe from debris. Since our roof was replaced, we experienced another hail storm and Nathan immediately came out to check on our roof. Luckily there was no damage, but his commitment to clients is top notch!

Driftwood Builders has been great to work with. We had our roof replaced because of Hail Damage. Driftwood gave us a very reasonable estimate. We had “shopped” two other builders. We selected Driftwood because the pricing given was reasonable. And instead of focusing on what they could do to reduce the amount we paid in deductible, they focused on the quality of the work AND gave a reasonable cost. After a couple of years, we developed a small leak around one of the dormers. Driftwood Builders came out the next day and by the end of the week, they had replaced the under payment plywood and a section of the roof. Following that they repainted the interior ceiling. We were impressed that they really replaced a larger section of roof than necessary to make sure the leak was permanently repaired. Highly recommend Driftwood Builders!

Chris and his crews were great to work with. The team was punctual, communicated well until the day of toof replacement, stayed throughout the roof repair and made sure everything was in good working order till the end. Roof replacement was done in a day and the crews made sure the perimeter was clear from the debris, nails and etc. Christina at the desk kept me informed and seamlessly worked with my insurance. Great communication from the company. Overall I am a very happy customer

Great experience with Driftwood Builders Roofing, from start to finish. Chris was very patient with answering all my questions and concerns. He walked me through the entire process, including insurance claim and paperwork. He and his crew provided excellent service during the roof replacement. Prompt to respond and address some issues post-installation. I definitively recommend them.

Nathan made a fantastic metal roof happen for us. The first mark of excellence with Driftwood Builders is their obvious respect for their employees. The metal crew were professional and knowledgeable, and everyone was kind to each other! My 50 year old roof needed some structural improvements with the rafters, and they quickly rebuilt the corner of my collapsing roof without any damage to the fascia or siding. The crew also replaced all of the wood on an old free standing porch before they installed the metal roof. They transformed that rotting roof into a beautiful outdoor space! Nathan also coordinated with their gutter subcontractors to install matching galvanized aluminum gutters. Everything is beautiful! I really trust this company!

Driftwood Builders Roofing is the way to go if you need to replace your roof! My roof was replaced on Oct 2024 by this reliable company ! Nathan gave me a thorough detail on the project and even work with my insurance inspection and billing . Nathan really helped me in saving a lot of money from other roofing companies. He is professional, very patient & flexible on my schedule. Their price is very competitive and reasonable with no hidden fees !! The hard working crew set up their stuff the night before the actual date and started working at the crack of dawn. They are quality roofers , arrived with a dumpster, put down tarps and they leave enough time to carefully clean my property! I am very happy and satisfied with the service! If you are looking for a reputable roofing company, I highly recommend Driftwood Builders Roofing.

I feel so good about my new roof. Driftwood Builders had come highly recommended and I soon found out why. Every step was clearly explained, both in Todd’s original presentation and in Christina’s follow up at scheduling. I knew just what to expect. The crew were on time and worked tirelessly, in spite of the 107 degree temps. I had also needed quite a bit of facia replaced and they took care of that, including the painting. They even agreed to remove old gutters. Jose really went above and beyond to get those extras done. I could not have asked for a better experience. The roof is beautiful, well done, and I love it.
