## The honest read

Ellis Builders LLC is a roofing and exterior contractor at 238 Reservoir Rd in Southbury, Connecticut. The company's site says it has been in business 5 years, offers free estimates and backs installed shingles and materials with its own warranty, and it lists a service area from Bridgeport and Stamford to Hartford, Waterbury and Danbury. A wfsb.com I-Team report on hail claims after the July 4th storms shows Noelle King of Ellis Builders using chalk to mark hail-sized dents in a customer's siding.

Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration HIC.0670619 is active, held by ELLIS BUILDERS LLC.

Google shows 4.9 stars from 137 ratings, and Angi and HomeAdvisor each show 4.6 from 9. The 2026 reviews center on roof replacements tied to storm and insurance claims. A September 2026 review says Chris Oberg pushed back after the insurer denied a wind-damage claim and won, and the crew installed Owens Corning Duration shingles in one day; another September 2026 review says Rick Uva fought the claim and the customer was awarded a full roof replacement, finished in one day. An October 2026 review describes Rick's inspection and claim help, then Noor coordinating materials and the dumpster. Noelle's inspections come up with drone footage and attic checks in October and July 2026 reviews, including a log cabin and barn re-roofed in July 2026. Beyond roofs, a March 2026 review says Chris and his team stripped a house of its aging cedar siding and resided it within a week, and reviews from 2026 and earlier describe new decks, aluminum siding replaced, a rotted support column fixed in a 1930's home (July 2024) and a roof tarped on a Saturday before a snow storm (March 2025).

A September 2026 two-star review says Nick spoke to the reviewer's 70 year old mother in a way that was extremely rude and unprofessional, and the family took the work elsewhere. A July 2026 four-star review calls the service good and the team responsive.

**Strengths:**
- Insurance claim help — staff fought denied wind and hail claims
- One-day roof installs — crews finished replacements in a day
- Drone roof inspections — Noelle checked roofs and attics

**Concerns:**
- Phone manner — 2026 review says Nick was rude to a caller
