Collins Custom Exteriors says on its website that it specializes in residential exterior services in Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire, from new construction projects to repairing damaged siding. The website states that it offers free estimates and is insured. In a 2026 review, a customer said Rorrie gave a very fair estimate for a roof repair and that Rorrie's team did great work. Another 2026 review describes fixing failing siding in various places on a house, checking windows and adding gutters to a porch; that customer wrote that he worked outside in below-zero temperatures and stayed out well after dark to finish before a major snowstorm. In a 2025 review, repeat customers said the company removed multiple layers of old shingles, replaced damaged boards and reshingled their garage roof, replaced rotted sections of their wooden garage doors with PVC, and replaced bad boards in their wood siding. They added that Rorrie had earlier worked on their slate roof, fixing the valley and replacing broken or cracked slate tiles. In a 2024 review, a customer said Rorrie responded immediately after high winds caused extensive roof damage, and the company came out only days later to make temporary emergency repairs, on Christmas Eve. Another 2024 review describes residing a house: they stripped 2 layers of shingles, installed gutters, shingles and new storm doors, and repaired fascia, and that customer said the crew left the yard cleaner than they found it. In a 2023 review, a customer said a roofer had told them the entire roof needed replacement, and Collins Custom Exteriors found it was simply a skylight issue, which they resolved at a very reasonable price. In another 2023 review, a customer said several other contractors had told them to replace the entire side of the house; they pulled back the areas that needed work, replaced rotted plywood, helped buttress some of the framing, then covered everything back up and repainted. In a 2022 review, a Lowell customer said big window companies would not take on replacing six steel-frame basement windows cemented into the concrete foundation, and Rorrie measured the openings, ordered the windows and got the job done. In another 2022 review, a customer said Rorrie was the only person to actually get up on the roof to evaluate it for a new-roof estimate, and later rushed over the day they called about a leaking chimney to give a quote.
Rorrie was very responsive to give an estimate for a roof repair, which was very fair. Rorrie’s team did great work. Rorrie is personable, professional and easy to communicate with. Very happy with this experience.I highly recommend hiring Collins Custom Exteriors.
We had a great experience with Collins Custom Exteriors fixing some failing siding in various places on our house, checking windows and adding gutters to our porch. Rorrie was detail-oriented, took pride in his work, and made sure everything was done the right way. He worked outside in below-zero temperatures and stayed out well after dark to get everything finished before a major snowstorm this winter. He was also genuinely kind, honest, and easy to work with, which can be hard to find in a contractor. He always explained things in detail so we could understand amd feel comfortable. So very pleased with the work. We will be calling them in the future for any additional repairs! :)
We can't recommend Rorrie and Collins Custom Exteriors enough for the exceptional work they did on our garage and home! From the start, their team was professional, thorough, and efficient. They expertly removed multiple layers of old shingles, replaced damaged boards, and reshingled our garage roof, making it look brand new. What really stood out was the attention to detail with ensuring the work area remained clean and safe. They also worked to restore our wooden garage doors by replacing the rotted sections with durable PVC, which has really elevated the look and functionality. Additionally, the crown molding work they did was flawless and really enhanced the overall aesthetic of our garage. They also replaced several bad boards from our wood siding, restoring the integrity of our house’s exterior. We are repeat customers as Rorrie previously worked on our slate roof, fixing the valley, and replacing broken/cracked slate tiles. Overall, it’s clear that Rorrie and Collins Custom Exteriors are dedicated to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction. Their work is top-notch, and we’re beyond happy with the results. If you're looking for reliable, high-quality exterior work, look no further!
It is my honor and pleasure to highly recommend Collins Custom Exteriors for your home repairs. There couldn’t be a kinder, more honest, or better team to hire for the job! Rorrie responded immediately to my call after high winds caused extensive roof damage to my home. The insurance company recommended that I hire a contractor to make emergency repairs to prevent further damage until roof could be replaced after winter season. Knowing the imminent threat of more severe weather, CCE came out only days later to complete the temporary repairs. This gave me peace and reassurance given the situation. Such outstanding professionalism , compassion, and care was demonstrated… these emergency repairs were made on Christmas Eve! Thank you, Rorrie and team for not only coming to the rescue and being a top-notch roofer but for being a truly amazing person and someone you can trust. Best to you!
Collins Custom Exteriors have been helping me in doing some roof repairs in my house. I am very impressed with his profesionalism and getting back to me in a timely manner. Prices are resonable, I will highly recommend.
