Thomas Garbati Builders, LLC is a roofing and siding company that says it has been in business 37 years, and its website describes siding options from cedar shake and clapboard to vinyl. A recent customer says Garbatti did their roof, sided a dormer and changed out a bathroom window. A recent customer says Tom's company found a leak around the windows, took down the siding, reflashed the windows with new Tyvek and caulked all of them. A recent customer says Tom and his crew put a new roof on the house and shed in one day, starting when he said they would. A 2026 customer said a multi-year re-roofing plan for their HOA community was underway, and that a shingle color mix-up was solved the same afternoon. A 2025 customer said the company replaced an asphalt shingle roof and an EPDM roof over the garage, with Tom Jr. managing the process. A 2025 customer said the roof and gutters were replaced, with the gutters done the day after the roofers arrived. A 2024 customer said that after gutters the company had not installed came loose, Tom sent two workers the next day to fix the broken brackets and did not charge for the repair. A 2023 customer said the company did siding and new trim on the front of the house, the last side of a 3-year project. A 2025 customer said a requested call back had not been returned after more than 72 hours. In 2018, an Angi reviewer said Tom said he could fix a leak, the crew's shingle replacement did not fix it, and Tom then said he could not guarantee it unless the whole roof was redone. In 2014, an Angi reviewer said windows leaked cold air and a front door did not open properly, and that Mr Garbati did not come back to fix it. The company has a 4.9-star Google rating from 74 ratings and a 3.4-star Angi rating from 7 ratings. Its Connecticut home improvement contractor registration, number HIC.0651157, held by THOMAS GARBATI BUILDERS, is active on the state registry.
I am 76 and sold roofing, siding and windows wholesale for a decade. Garbatti did a terrific A1 job on my roof, sided a dormer and changed out a bathroom window. The work was done quickly and was as close to perfect as it gets! They get an A1 recommendation from me!
Wanted to leave a review. Got bodybuilder did my roof. There was a leak unrelated to the roof. They immediately diagnosed the problem being a leak around the windows. They then came by with a wonderful crew and took down the siding. They did new Tyvek reflash the windows, taped it. And then even caulked all my windows even the ones that did not have a leak. I cannot thank them enough. Tom always answers his phone. Is extremely pleasant and I would recommend them without reservation.
New London counties, best Roofing and Siding company!!
Tom and his crew are amazing. Unbeatable price, started exactly when he said they would and finished in one day exactly as he said they would. New roof on my house and shed. Fixed some unexpected problems with no delay. Absolutely no mess left behind. Extremely happy.
We are in the middle of a multi-year re-roofing plan for our HOA community with Mr. Garbati and his company. Not only has this project gone seamlessly with excellent results Mr. Garbati, his son and crew are timely, respectful and do excellent work for a fair price. They all always exceed expectations. The answer to any requests is always yes. The difference between a good company and a great one is not how they act when things go right but how they act when things go wrong. We recently had a mix-up of shingle color for our project. One call and it was addressed immediately and solved the same afternoon. Needless to say that going forward there is no one that I would trust more for any of their services.
