The top rated roofers on any manufactures website are just the ones they sell the most shingles to through distribution. They may have sent them some training material on how to sell their shingle and tons of literature. It has nothing to do with the quality of the installation. Roofing shingles are purchased by the contractor from a roofing distributor not directly from the manufacturer. ABC Roofing is probably the largest distributor in the Country. OCF had thousands of squares of bad shingles in TV they had to replace a few years back. I think the best checking point is the Better Business Bureau.

We went with Eustis Roofing.

Yes, I know, that wasn't an option but since I wanted McGinnis and Mrs Fox wanted McHale we decided to split the difference.

Good choice, excellent roofers

Hi Arctic Fox. I came across your forum post about roofer choice. Thank you for posting it.
I am looking for a quality roofer myself now. Were you happy with your final choice of Eustis?

I was getting ready to call McHale’s but now wonder why you changed your mind.

I appreciate your help and information. Thank you in advance for your reply.
