A roof close to 30 years old, patched badly by another roofer, then rebuilt with copper window pans, a screen-porch and shed roof and a flat rubber roof over the kitchen: that is the job one Google reviewer described in May 2024, praising the project manager, James, for his patience and the lead, Sergio, for his carpentry and copper skills. Willard Roofing works out of Dedham, and its website says it has been in business 100 years and serves Dedham, Boston, Brookline, Needham, Newton, Wellesley and nearby towns. Angi and HomeAdvisor each show 4.9 stars from 141 ratings, and Google shows 4.6 from 16. Several customers name Parker Willard. A June 2017 Angi reviewer said the company president and his son arrived within hours of the call to give an estimate, and an August 2023 Google reviewer said they have worked with the company for well over a decade, first with Parker Sr. and now Parker Jr. Customers describe hard-working crews: an April 2019 Angi reviewer described a crew that started at 7:30, worked until 6 and cleaned up every day, and a July 2018 reviewer said the crew worked through extremely hot days. When something went wrong, a January 2018 customer said a gutter in the wrong color was reinstalled at no charge, and a February 2020 customer said a section of wrong shingles was removed and replaced at no extra charge. Some customers have had problems. In a June 2022 Google review, a customer called a $5,225 gutter quote and a $125 per man-hour rate for rotted trim an overcharge. In an April 2022 review, a homeowner said the company came right out and sent a quote within a week or two, but calls and emails with questions about it went unanswered for two months. An August 2018 Angi reviewer waited ten days after signing for a tarp over a leak until Mr. PJ Willard stepped in, and a February 2020 reviewer found many nails and plastic pieces in the yard after the job. The website lists Registration #106642 and License #85926. BBB gives the company an A+ grade and shows it as accredited.
Job done right
Parker and the team provided fantastic professionalism and work throughout the process of assessing and replacing an old section of roof. Highly recommend!
Great service, fair pricing, the team is excellent.
We recently had our roof re-done by Willard Roofing. The roof was probably close to 30 years old and had some very poor repairs done by another roofer Willard had to fix. In addition to the main shingle roof they did 3 cooper window pans, shingle roofing on a screen porch and shed and a flat, rubber roof over the kitchen. It was a big job! Willard was fantastic from start to finish. Parker Willard, the owner, was very available to discuss options and answer questions questions. James, the project manager, also worked closely and was very patient with all the concerns I had that everything was done correctly on this complex job. Sergio, the lead, was an artist with his carpentry and copper skills and his son, Alex, was helpful in noticing and correcting any issues. The entire experience went incredibly well and was very fairly priced for the amazing work we received! I would whole-heartedly endorse Willard for any roofing work you need done!
We have known, and worked with the Willard Roofing team, for well over a decade. Our experience has been nothing short of fantastic dealing with both Parker Sr. and now Parker Jr. They demonstrate a good old fashioned work ethic, extreme responsiveness and are excellent communicators. After working with them on multiple occasions, it is clear they are committed to quality workmanship and will stand behind their name. It's no wonder they have been in business for well over 100 years. We will certainly seek to use them again on our next project. The Mullally Family

Typical Greater Boston range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Willard Roofing. 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.
