W.E. Brown Roofing

W.E. Brown Roofing customers describe roof replacements, leak repairs and jobs involving skylights, with recent praise for finished work alongside a serious older complaint about a metal-roof project. A September 2026 reviewer praised two rounds of work: a detached garage roof at home in 2025, followed more recently by garage and shed roofs at their church. Another September 2026 customer said the company correctly repaired a difficult porch-roof area after years of minor leaks, praising Ron’s knowledge while noting a long wait amid busy-season demand and rain. The company describes residential and commercial roofing operations in Keene, New Hampshire, and Eliot, Maine, and advertises free estimates. Google gives it 4.8 stars from 59 ratings; the Better Business Bureau gives it an A+ grade. Its listed roofing offerings include asphalt, metal and slate. Several customers describe clear planning and quick completion. In November 2025, one Keene customer said a roof replacement with two skylights took two days and praised the communication. A separate September 2025 reviewer said Joe and his crew replaced a roof and two skylights within a day and cleaned the property thoroughly. Another September 2025 customer described complete re-shingling with metal ice blocks at the eaves, calling it expensive but competitive. Repairs have also brought praise. In December 2025, a customer with a ceiling leak after melting snow said Joe assessed it within 90 minutes. The crew arrived at 7 a.m. the next day, applied ice melt and returned that afternoon to fix the issue. In November 2023, a slate-roof customer described same-day assessment and temporary patches, followed by scheduled repair work that also addressed additional problems. An October 2023 customer described a much worse experience with a metal-roof replacement. They said Joe missed the Monday start, sent a Maine subcontractor on Tuesday, and added $1,400 for strapping beyond the agreed potential increase. The reviewer reported repeated completion delays, screws, rubbish and cigarette ends left on the property. They also said Joe told them the subcontractor was being fired for stealing company equipment, before bringing his own crew to finish the roof. These are the customer’s allegations. Other older customers praised the process: an August 2023 reviewer described Wayne Brown explaining shingle and metal options and an itemised quote, followed by Brad Hase’s crew completing the roof and cleanup in one day.
