This past week, I have had the pleasure corresponding with Keith and Kameron - but our conversations had nothing to do with getting a roof repaired....but PLEASE keep reading! While at work this week, my cell phone rang and the caller ID said, "RickJohn Roofing". Something told me to answer, even though I thought it was a wrong number or a telemarketer.I answered the phone and to my surprise, it was my husband using someone else's phone to call me from the side of the busy highway. His voice was shaky, but quickly reassured me he was okay. While driving on a three lane highway, my husband was flagged down by two guys in a truck and they alerted him to pull over because there was fire coming from underneath my husband's SUV! The guys in the RickJohn Roofing truck pulled off of the highway to help. As my husband exited the vehicle on fire, he began running towards the good samaritans, Keith and his son, Kameron (of RickJohn Roofing). Their swift action probably saved my husband's life. The black smoke poured from the vehicle as it quickly became engulfed in flames and continued to burn down to the frame for the next 5-7 minutes until the fire department arrived. Needless to say the vehicle was a total loss, but the most important thing is that my husband was safe and unharmed.He didn't have time to grab his phone when getting out of the vehicle, and it, too, was a loss. Keith and Kameron stayed on site with my husband, offering support by recording and photographing, and letting my husband use their phone to call and text me, which was the only thing that brought me ANY comfort. I was able to finally get to him an hour later. Upon arrival, I met these brave helpers who stayed on scene with my husband that entire time!The day was emotionally exhausting, however, the bright spot in our day was when Keith and Kameron sent a text message that evening (as they had my number in the phone from earlier that day) to check on us to make sure that we were doing okay.Over the course of the week, I have texted back and forth with Keith, and each time, my husband and I acknowledged our appreciation for their willingness to help a stranger. They acted without hesitation and their selfless efforts meant the world to us. It was shocking to learn, that for one hour, hundreds of vehicles passed, and no one else pulled over to help.Thank you again, Keith and Kameron, for doing the right thing and helping someone else out who was in need. I hope people reading this lengthy "thank you" will acknowledge both your character and integrity.Now that we have connected, we will be in touch for some home repairs! Thank you again.

Called several roofers and this company was the only one to return my call. Had leaks from the past storms and took a few days to locate all the problems, but repairs made and now very dry. Great prices and service crew great to work with. Highly recommend.

We have a dectile roof and developed a leak near our wood burner. No one wanted to come out or help us figure out where the leak was originating. Rickjohn came out not only diagnosed our problem but fixed. We have no more leak or problems. Definitely recommend them. Great company and great workers.

Had a gutter downspout come off of our home. Emailed Rick photos of the issue and he sent someone to fix it the same day!Had another issue a month later with a leak in a high up window. Rick sent Mike out to fix it. Mike found the root cause, got it fixed, and now we have no more leaks!Could not be happier and will be recommending RickJohn to anyone who has a roofing or gutter need our area. 🙂

After another roofing and gutter company gave us the run-around for months on end, I called Rick John. We’d seen them work on a neighbor’s box gutters over the summer and their work looks great. Rich was out to provide a quote shortly after, and he was able to help identify some huge issues causing water to leak via two sealed chimneys (MIA flashing that our home inspector missed, of course).After winter, they gave me a call to let me know when they’d be out to start the job. It was smooth sailing the entire few weeks. The crew was clean and courteous, and I can most definitely attest to the quality—thankfully, our gutters were about 99% done when the torrential downpours and flash flooding occurred. Without Rick John’s work, we’d have had water intrusion on every floor of the house. But we were A-OK!If you’re looking to have your box gutters repaired, these are the guys you want to do the job!

We had a leak in our slate/tile roof back in 2022. We first hired a different roofing contractor that claimed they fixed the leak; however, the leak reappeared after several weeks. We then luckily came across RickJohn Roofing. RickJohn was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. They were prompt to provide an estimate and complete the work. They were able to fix the leak that the other company was unable to fix. And fix it for good! And at a fair price. They truly are Pittsburgh's Slate and Tile Roofing Specialists.We recently had a leak on the roof over our backyard deck. This roof is a shingle roof different than our main slate/tile roof. Once again we called RickJohn Roofing to take care of the problem and once again they were prompt to provide an estimate and complete the work.We will continue to use RickJohn for any of our roofing needs and would advise others to do the same!

RickJohn replaced our downspouts. We own an older home, so I always appreciate contractors with experience working on older structures.Quotes were reasonable and the work was done in a professional manner.

We really appreciate Rick John's craftsmanship. They just did our copper roof, and it's beautiful! They have fixed the Spanish tile and soffits on our old house previously. Rich is very responsive. He knew just what we needed to do. We would recommend Rick John to any of our neighbors without reservation. The workers left the area clean. Just great!

We've had a number of leaks on our roof and tried several different roofers over the years before our contractor friend recommended Rick John. We've been impressed with the quality of their team and the work done. They showed us exactly what was wrong and fixed a number of issues across our flat and shingled sections of roof. We are grateful for the great work and that our family is now staying dry! :-)

Choose Rickjohn is you want your tile roofing job done right! They spent multiple days doing the job right and explained everything they were doing. I used them to fix a leak in my tile roof, which was incorrectly repaired by another roofing company. Their price was also much more reasonable than the other estimate I received. So many companies say they know tile roofs but no one is better than Rickjohn. Period.

We used RickJohn Roofing for an extensive project involving the restoration of roofing trim and box gutters on our historic home. This was a very large project and they did a great job. Their price was very competitive and we were pleased with the quality of the work. I highly recommend them for any project.

I had such a great experience with RickJohn Roofing. I had some shingles blow off in a wind storm and when I called they were able to come out the next day. They even came early to fix the roof before the rain storm rolled in so that I wouldn't have any issues! The gentlemen I spoke with (Rick? John? Rick John? lol) to schedule was such a great person and incredibly accommodating! I would 1000% recommend this company to anyone looking for a recommendation!!

Today was a windy day - so windy that a few shingles blew off of my roof. Rick John was the only roofer to actually answer the phone and send a repair technician over within a few hours. The roofers were kind, professional, and very skilled at their trade. I will recommend Rick John to anyone who asks me about quality, fair priced roofers. Thank you for being so honest and prompt!!

Called three roofing companies on a weekend and Rick John was the only one that responded within an hour. Rick came out the next day. He sent one of his employees out within 2 days to repair two roof leaks and we are getting an estimate within 5 days for total repair of our slate roof. Each encounter they displayed professionalism, high level of customer service, safety protocols, and instilled confidence in their knowledge of roofing repair. They shared photos of the problem areas and explained what needed fixed. Great company!

We had a tile fall off our roof — called it in to another roofer and they told us two weeks. Three weeks later we call back in and are told probably another month because they need to focus on ‘emergencies’ and since we don’t actually see the water leaking into our house, this isn’t that. Called Rick John today and they were out two hours later and the tile was taken care of in short order. I’m sure that’s not going to be an every-job response time, but today they made my life a little easier and I’m not going to hesitate to call them again.

I called RickJohn Roofing because I was in Sewickley and I saw them working on Mario Lemieux’s house once doing a clay tile in copper and gutter addition.I waited until they were finished and checked out the quality, they matched the original clay roof from 100 years ago perfectly.I called RickJohn Roofing to get an estimate on my roof. They contacted me back quickly and answered all of my questions. Everything was in writing and was so professional. I signed the contract and told them they could start right away.They were on time every morning at 8 o’clock until 4:30 pm and left the job site completely cleaned up everyday.I work for the City of Pittsburgh and I will definitely refer all of my friends and colleagues to RickJohn Roofing for their needs. They do impeccable work at fair prices.

I had two leaks at my house, and one at my business building. None were fixed he first try. These leaks were difficult. I had other companies try, and charge me, but ultimately fail to fix the problems. This company stuck with it and ultimately solved all three problems. I hired them to stop the leaks, and they did not quit on me until all leaks were taken care of. Thanks.
