Roof Maintenance
Report
The roof, in most cases, is out of sight and therefore out of mind. Failure to inspect for small roof problems can allow minor issues to escalate into major leaks and premature roof failure. Once water is under the roof, the moisture can cause mold and mildew and attract insects. Major flooding can make a building uninhabitable and/or shut down all productivity in a business.
Re-roofing
Report
Eventually, protective oils and barriers on your roof get scraped and corroded away. This is something that happens with every roof, except tiles, and there is not much that can be done to prevent it. Once this layer disappears, you roof is more vulnerable to damage and leaking. Even the best tile roofing materials carry only a 20 to 30 year lifetime warranty.

Ron Bell roofing in Delray. ed*** Hired Ron Bell roofing to install a new roof. After 8 months the roof started to leak into my front bedroom where my 88 year old mother stays. After Ron Bell found the leak they would not answer the phone or emails for 3 weeks. Of course the problem was getting worse. Allison from Ron Bell told me (when I called from another phone ) They were short handed and she on vacation for a week because she deserved it.
All the while letting my house flood everyday because we are in rainy season. Now we have a bedroom that the wall, carpet and ceiling needs replacing. I now have mold growing in the attic. I have my 88 year old mother living in the house. I kept her alive thru this whole pandemic, only to have Ron Bell roofing knowingly endanger her life with knowing there is a leak and leaving the it for 3 weeks.
I was told by Allison that the mold and all the damage in the house is not their responsibility. ( even if the leak was cause by them) If Ron Bell roofing would have fixed the problem right away instead waiting 3 weeks I would not have dangerous black mold problem in my house. Allison laughed and said it's not their problem, good luck with that.

This is the 2nd roof Ron Bell has done for me. The first one lasted well over 20 years with no issues, so it was a no-brainer for me when it was time to replace it. Everyone was a pleasure to deal with. They use great materials, have many years of experience and do it all for a fair price. Would highly recommend! Service: Roof installation

Finished roof with rusted nails all over my pool. They tried to get some of them out but left gouges in the Dimondbright. The stains are everywhere. There was even a pile at the end of the pool. It's like they got tired and left. Not getting good response from the company. Like this has never happened anywhere in FlBlamed the nails on me. Ron Bell not taking responsibility.

Last year I wasn't sure where to start when my home needed to have the entire roof replaced due to age. My insurance company surprised me with a deadline to replace the roof or be dropped from coverage. Although my project had a limited timeframe because of the situation, I still wanted to find the right company for the job. I initially solicited for replacement bids from three local roofing companies, to my surprise the bids were all over the board ranging from very high cost, to more responsible but using lower grade materials.
After I discussed my situation with a friend, they recommend I contact Ron Bell Roofing for a fourth bid. As you might imagine, this was the bid I selected. Ron Bell was able to bid my roof replacement using the highest quality materials, while keeping the costs in line with my lowest bid. For that reason alone, I would recommend them to others, but a job is still about more than product and price.
I'm also happy to report that my experience working with Ron Bell Roofing and their staff was excellent and always very professional. Joe Manick (GM) kept in continuous communication with me about the status of my roof project from county permitting all the way through to work completion. TLDR: Great price, great people, highly recommend

I am so impressed - they are the best Roofers in South Fl! Both the roofers and office staff are very organized, professional, and courteous. I will have NO other company from now on and YOU should not either! I have an older home with a 20 y/o roof. Surprisingly they never tried to sell me a new one, all though I probably will need a new roof soon.
So while I am saving up for this venture, these guys seem to understand as they took their time, double checked my entire roof and were able to repair it, making it last a few more years. I remain grateful to this company and highly recommend them for any roofing needs. *Just know that I had three (3) other local roofing companies recently come to give me necessary repair proposals, before Ron Bell Company was referred to me, and they all said "was not worth ANY fixing-happy to put a NEW ROOF on for you and do not worry about the cost, we will happily finance everything for you"! Yea, I bet they all would- making money on that financing. No thank you, I will be happy to pay Ron Bell especially since he was the lowest quote.

What a horrible experience. Back in May 2018 I hired RB Roofing (Ron Bell Roofing) to fix two small leaks in my roof. They warranted the service for 1 year so they said. In February 2019 my house went under contract and the inspector questioned some brown drips around the repair area so the buyers wanted me to have Ron Bell Roofing come out and confirm the repair was holding.
They wouldn't come out! So much for that one year guaranty. They were too busy so I had to get another roofer that my buyer's agent recommended who was amazing. There's more to the story.the house I'm buying has a barn on the property. That barn possibly needs a new roof. Ron texted me himself saying that he would have someone meet me there on Monday or Tuesday.
Without telling me Ron decided his team was too busy and he'd give me a quote without looking at the roof. Ron was paying very little attention to my needs and kept thinking the house roof needed replaced and also the barn roof, etc. What he couldn't understand is that I needed an expert to actually determine what needed to be done. Ron was incredibly rude via text and when I insisted he keep his word and send someone out to meet me he tried to turn the tables on me implying I was too demanding and they couldn't meet my needs.
The arrogance and lack of care was appalling. If I could put Ron Bell out of business I would because there are a lot of good, hard working and honest roofers available and Ron Bell is definitely NOT one of them. I do not recommend RB Roofing. Terrible customer service, awful listening skills and a true "I don't care" arrogant attitude.

The guys that did the actual work were great, and the repair was well done. However, the final bill was 54% over the estimate--in other words, a job estimated below $2K came in with $1,000 tacked on at the end. An estimate is an estimate, but it should be accurate, educated, and reflect due diligence. I would recommend Ron Bell for the work, but strongly suggest getting a written, itemized quote rather than an estimate to ensure you pay what you expect to pay when the work is done.

Ron Bell charged me ninety-six ($96) per sheet for plywood. See attachments. $2,880.00 for wood in addition to the "contract" price of $11,280.00 for a 3144 sq ft re-roof. He refused to this date 4/28/2018 to show receipts for the two (2) trips his crew chief told me she made; charged to his account and receipt for sheets not used. The Decayed Wood Contingency clause is smoke and mirrors since the customer is not shown how many sheets he/she is paying $3.00 per linear feet for.
Bell himself told me in person for any rotted spot that has to be removed two trusses must be covered by new plywood. I was charged for thirty-three new sheets of plywood. Nine (9) photos were taken total of rotted and new wood. I should have thirty-three (33) photos of rotted areas or of new plywood. I paid someone to go in the attic and take pics of the new wood.
My house has hips and valleys. The attic is partially blocked. Home Depot wants the date, the order number, the exact amount or the account the purchases on 12/27/2017 was made to. I told Bell he could redact his account number. Just show me the amounts. The crew that removed the materials was not the same crew that laid the shingles. The first crew left materials in the grass, the hedge beds and planter.
I did not know they were not going to return. I picked up all forms of materials from 12/27 to this date 4/28/2018. I took pics of the debris that I was picking up as I would walk the property to do work. $96 per sheet is what he knew he was charging at the outset. See his letter justifying the amount. Irma removed my shingles. This was hurricane related and he knew that. Charging ninety-six ($96.00) dollars for plywood reads like PRICE GOUGING to me!
I paid the $2880.00 with a "Paid in Protest" letter accompanying it separate from the $11,280.00 contract price since he was going to charge me 1.5% finance charge/month on unpaid balance. Attorney fees and court costs if he took me to court. I would have to pay an attorney to take him to court. The court of public opinion is what I am appealing to to have Ron Bell make his "contract" straightforward.
He told me on 12/29/2017 "you are not the first person to be shocked by the "Wood Bill." I should be the last. I should have thirty-three (33) photos of rotted wood areas; thirty-three (33) photos of new wood. I should not have to pay overhead; no more than he actually paid the crew to cut the old wood and install the new over an above the time they would have spent; federal tax, social security, medicare and unemployment taxes on wood; the cost of nails for the 33 sheets is how much.
The time to pick up that second purchase is a wash. The crew chief rang my bell at 4:30 pm to ask if she could leave Ron Bell's truck in my driveway "I don't feel like driving it to the office and back here again in the morning. She also didn't feel like telling me she was getting wood that I could have paid for on my Home Depot account.
When I asked her about it in a subsequent conversation she said "when we see that we need more wood we don't stop. We keep going." Makes not sense. She had to stop to go back to Home Depot. I was home the entire time. This was the truck that some of the debris was in. The rest was all over the property. Every type of nail, tin tags, pieces of shingles and 30 lb felt.
The office is several miles away. See photos of some of what I picked up. Bell want and gets $96 per sheet. He should say that in plain English. Don't cloak it in linear feet construction speak. We lay people can understand per sheet speak.

We are a sandblasting company based in Boynton Beach. We were contacted by one of Ron Bells supervisors stating that he had an urgent situation where a large amount of roofing glue (approx.150sqft) was spilled by his workers in a homeowners driveway, had dried and that he was not going to get payment for the roof from the homeowner until the driveway was cleaned. Ron's employee advised me that the glue had been down for several days in the summer sun.
I conveyed to the employee that we specialize in this gentle application where not to damage the concrete but would remove the glue itself and a light stain would either remain as a shadow for the sun to degrade or we could dig into the cement to remove all of the shadow. The day of the job no one from Ron bell was on site nore the homeowner. We removed the glue telling homeowner by phone that a light shadow remained, that we would come back the next day to continue if he felt it was OK to degrade the cement to remove the shadow.
The next morning we arrived on site, the homeowner was sitting in the driveway with a can of oven cleaner, a wire brush and some household chemicals scrubbing the driveway. The homeowner was upset with the whole ball of wax and was telling my employees he was not paying for his roof. After the homeowner applied chemical to the driveway we left do to liability of damage that we could not be responsible for.
At this point I called Ron Bell roofing and was told by the receptionist he was on the phone. After 3 days of trying to contact Ron I was told by his employees that he is impossible to get ahold of and will always "be on the phone". I personally stopped into his Delray office on several occasions and was finally able to get ahold of him. Ron told me that the homeowner was refusing to pay him a dime and I could have 50% of the bill at the moment but he would contact me when he worked things out with the homeowner.
Well as you can imagine no call ever came and no check was mailed. I wanted to leave this review for people who are looking for an honest roofer because Ron Bell is not one. Not only did Ron Bell not return any of my calls, he even failed to let me know in any way what the resolution of the driveway was. For all I know Ron got paid and I'm here holding the bag. A pretty shoddy thing to do to a small business owner that is an owner/ operator trying to pay the bills, stay in business and make sure his guys paychecks don't bounce.

In 2007 after a major storm my roof was contracted for major repair by Andrews Roofing, at a cost of $26,000. My contract stated they were to have completely stripped my old roof off and apply a total new roof. Unfortunately Andrew's Roofing repairs was not up to standards, which was confirmed by a roof engineering company. $26,000 and 5 yrs later my house had 8 leaks.

I called Andrew's Roofing and informed them, but they would not even come out to fix the problem. After making a call to Ron Bell, they immediately came out and found that all the flashing around my house was rotted and had been covered with a paint to appear it was replaced. They quickly replaced the entire flashing before the rain came with several workers.
I wasn't able to pay for the entire repair and Ron was very understandable and let me work out a payment plan. I highly recommend Ron Bell and have referred his services to anyone that wants a "top notch" repair.

Paul of Ron Bell Inc. came out to my home, listened to my concerns about my roof, and completed a full roof inspection. We went over his findings and decided on the best course of action to solve the problems. That evening, Paul sent me a comprehensive and fair estimate. Lorenzo, Ruben, and their crew came out and got right to work. They did a great job and cleaned up completely. I highly recommend Paul, Lorenzo, Ruben, the crew, and Ron Bell Inc.
