The Roof Kings works out of Quincy, putting most of its effort into residential and commercial roofing, with windows, doors, siding, and chimney and gutter work rounding out the business across the Boston area and South Shore. Craig Galligan owns the company; the BBB's file on the business points to a start around 2011, though the company's own site claims more than 30 years in the trade — a gap worth noting before taking the longer number at face value. The numbers third parties keep are, on their own, encouraging: a 4.2-star average on Google across 34 ratings, a BuildZoom score of 100 that the site says outranks 87% of contractors, and an A+ letter grade from the BBB (the company hasn't sought BBB accreditation). BestProsInTown calls the crew professional, hardworking, and value-priced. The broader pattern isn't unanimous, though — alongside the satisfied jobs, at least one detailed account describes a roof job gone wrong, serious enough that the same complaint has turned up, nearly word for word, on more than one review site. What matters most right now: in late June 2026, The Roof Kings and its owner were indicted on fraud charges, according to Wicked Local — a live legal matter, not old history, and worth raising directly before signing anything. It's also on the record that OSHA fined the company $137,000 in 2023, calling it a repeat violator after workers were again found exposed to fall hazards — a safety issue that matters directly to anyone whose roof this crew will be standing on. Put together, this is a roofer with an active license, a decent star-rating history, and specific praise for its crews — but also a fresh fraud indictment and a documented safety-fine history that the online ratings don't capture. Anyone hiring them right now should ask directly about the pending case, confirm current insurance and bonding, and treat the star ratings as only part of the picture.

A scam company. Since they have a tactic of lying and saying the bad reviews are for another company, let me specify immediately that this is the Quincy, MA RoofKings. They did an overpriced, shoddy job installing our roof actually leaving tiles all over it including a tile glue-side down on the skylight that we had to chase them to come remove and a giant permanent black stain on the sidewalk in front of our house. The skylight leaked a month later and again we had to chase them to even get a response. Ignored our calls and would blow off set appointments with no communication whatsoever. Finally they sent two random guys, who didn't bring a ladder (roofers!) and had to use mine, and they charged us more money saying it was because of a mild storm we had. This never happened with our previous roof and was obviously to get out of honoring their fake warranty. Months later the roof leaks again, and again they're either ignoring our calls altogether or the shifty owner tells us a time then blows it off. Avoid this horrible scam of a business at all costs.

From start to finish, this company is top notch. There was no pressure in picking them and they offer many different options to finance the project. They were thorough and very professional. We will refer them to anyone looking for a new roof.

We hired The Roof Kings to replace our roof. We were impressed with the professional Five-Star job they did. They were reasonably priced and finished the job in a timely manner. Cleanup was excellent. I would highly recommend them. Every detail was addressed. We are very happy we hired Roof King

The Roof Kings replaced the roof on our home in 2023. They were professional, worked hard and value priced.. In fact they were so good, that we asked if they would come to Maine and replace the roof on one of our vacation rentals. And they did a fantastic job there. We would recommend them to everyone.
