Verified record
Raboin Roofing Company is a Massachusetts roofing contractor specializing in slate, copper, and chimney flashing work, self-reported in business since 1922 and positioned as a specialist other roofers call when they can't find a leak. The review record is thin but mixed: one reviewer describes a fairly priced, same-day roofing job with prompt communication and a careful cleanup, while another describes paying several thousand dollars to have a bathroom leak diagnosed and supposedly fixed, only for the guarantee not to hold when the leak recurred. Google shows a 2.5-star rating from 2 reviews, reflecting that split experience. Worth asking about before booking: the business self-reports a Massachusetts Board of Regulations license and Home Improvement registration number on its own site, but these have not been verified against any registry, and the one detailed negative account describes a leak-repair guarantee that reportedly did not hold. This may fit a homeowner with a specialty slate, copper, or chimney roofing need who wants a long-established specialist, but given the thin review base and one serious unresolved complaint, get everything in writing and confirm licensing directly before committing to a leak-repair guarantee.

A square is 100 sq ft of roof surface — bigger than the floor plan because of pitch and overhangs.

“We are "The Roofer That Other Roofers Call When They Can't Find The Leak". All work is according to MA Building Code or better.”
Tom was very good to do business with and the job was fairly priced. He responded to my calls right away, answering all my questions. It was a one day job and they were done by 12:30! The roofers came on time, were careful to protect my flowers with a drop cloth and cleaned up well when they were done. Tom stopped in to check on the job and update us on the progress! I am very happy with the job they did start to finish! I highly recommend using Mr. Raboin and crew for your roofing needs! *****one thing I really wish the crew would not be so scared to approach the mailboxes to take check payments, since I had to mail my final payment in.
Calls himself "the roofer's roofer". Hired him to diagnose a significant leak that would occur in the bathroom each time there was a heavy rain. He claimed to have diagnosed and fixed it after we paid several thousand dollars for his work. But despite his "guarantee" when we called him back several months later after experiencing the same leak after a heavy rain, he insisted it was something new and not under guarantee and offered to fix it for additional money. Mighty suspicious, if you ask me. A roofer's roofer? Hardly.
