## The honest read

Empire Roofing is a Windham, Maine roofer that describes itself on Angi as a local roofing crew specializing in full roof replacements, veteran owned and operated. A 2020 customer said the shingles and trailer came one day, the crew was there early the next and had everything torn down by 10:00 in the morning, and the whole roof and cleanup were done in one day. That 2020 customer also said they explained a couple of different replacement options and prices, and called the estimate very fair.

A 2022 Google reviewer said Corey and his crew replaced their roof, the estimate was fair and the work was completed in one day. A 2020 customer who bought a house that needed a new roof said Cory got there a few days after closing and was done in a day.

The work is not only replacements. A 2022 customer said they hired Cory to fix a roof leak, that he explained what had happened and what it would take to fix it, and that he cleaned up after. A 2022 HomeAdvisor reviewer said they put the time into diagnosing the issue correctly when others just gave a price for a new roof. In a 2021 review, a customer said a rotted section was cut out and replaced, and that Cory fixed a weak area where an addition was added onto the existing structure.

In a 2022 Angi review, a customer wrote that Corey Kelley of Empire Roofing "scammed us $6,000.00 for a Roof", worked two days removing some trim, never came back to do the roof and did not return calls, texts or emails.

**Strengths:**
- One-day roof replacement — a 2022 customer said the work was completed in one day
- A careful leak diagnosis — a 2022 customer said others only quoted a new roof
- Rot repair — a 2021 customer said a rotted section was replaced

**Concerns:**
- An unfinished roof job — a 2022 Angi customer said they never came back
