Rock Solid Roofing, Inc. is a Newton, Massachusetts roofing contractor run by owner Dave (David Kent), with about 12 years of experience by the company's own account. The business holds an active Massachusetts Home Improvement Contractor license (#185372) and has pulled building permits for reroofing and skylight-adjacent work in Newton, Newtonville, Arlington, Cambridge and Lowell. The handful of homeowners who left reviews between 2018 and 2020 consistently describe Dave as prompt, communicative and fair on price. A 2018 review credits him with repairing a roof and drain spout and showing photos of the completed work to confirm no leaks remained. A November 2020 review, written during the pandemic, praises the crew's COVID precautions on a full roof replacement. Every review recommends hiring him again, and the average across Angi and HomeAdvisor, which mirror the same five reviews, is 4.8 out of 5. The written record is thin and dated — five reviews, the newest from November 2020 — so it is worth asking for more recent references or photos of completed jobs before booking. BuildZoom's permit data corroborates the roofing work but lists no customer reviews of its own. For homeowners in the Greater Boston area needing an asphalt shingle roof replaced or repaired, Rock Solid Roofing's active license and permit history back up its reviewers' praise — just confirm current availability and get a fresh quote, since the public feedback trail stops in 2020.
Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Rock Solid Roofing, Inc.. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.
A square is 100 sq ft of roof surface — bigger than the floor plan because of pitch and overhangs.

Dave and his guys were fantastic. They replaced our roof, working quickly and professionally. Dave communicated everything really well and we were in constant contact throughout the repair. His men were incredibly respectful and responsible with COVID precautions. The roof looks fantastic! I would recommend Dave to anyone.
Dave was prompt and professional. He gave us a good price and did quality work in a short time, and in very cold weather. He graciously agreed to keep the noise down during certain hours (since I teach music at home). He was responsive and available to answer any and all questions and addressed all our concerns. He is very knowledgeable. I recommend him strongly!
Dave was friendly, responsive, and honest. He was here when he said, did what he said and did it for the cost he said. I'd hire him and his crew again.
Dave is an extremely competent and thorough roofer. Man of his word, here as he promised and did a superb job repairing my roof and drain spout. Showed me pictures of the repairs and did more than what was required to ensure there would be no leaks. Dave did a first class job at a reasonable price and I am impressed with his sincerity and customer rapport. I highly recommend Rock Solid Roofing. If you hire them, you will be very glad you did!!!
They did a great job on my roof. Everything was completed as promised and I have had no issues. Recommended!
