General Contractor reviews in Raleigh, North Carolina

We recently had a screened in porch converted to a year round glassed-in room. The Rodas team was very professional and quite thorough--they had two sets of engineers sign off on the project. Throughout the construction the CEO, Enrique Rodas, routinely visited the job site to check on the quality of the work. We are very pleased with the result and can recommend this firm without reservation.

Sometimes it is truly amazing when you find a construction group that is honest and trustworthy from the beginning. We had some water marks on the ceiling and needed a few minor roof repairs, and not only did Ari and John come out within days to give us a competitive estimate, but the roofing work was professionally completed within the next week and they did an excellent job. The interior repainting was also one of the most efficient and cleanest painting jobs we’ve seen as well. Overall we had an excellent experience with the Rodas team and will certainly use them for any future projects! Thank you!

I cannot say enough about Rodas Roof Construction LLC. They are efficient, respectful, and very knowledgeable and they even each have a specific job and performs each and every one to perfection. I am very pleased with my new roof. I highly recommend this company ... I'm sure you will also be pleased!

After much research to find a contractor to replace a second story deck and add a screened in porch - we learned of Rodas Construction through a personal reference which was excellent - and very well deserved. We very highly recommend for excellent service, attention to detail, quality - and all at a very competitive price. The entire staff from the office to those on the job site were terrific to work with. Promptly responsive - knowledgeable, professional and courteous. Steve - and Enrique as Project Manager were particularly attentive to ensuring quality workmanship. A pleasure to work with the entire Rodas Team!

The Rodas associate and field crew were all respectful and knowledgeable. They were quick getting my new roof on and very clean at my property. I highly recommend Rodas construction for your roof needs!

I recently had work completed with Rodas, and it was a good experience. They did my roof ( Rafael), new gutters (Moises) and new vent covers/pressure washed (Salvador) the house They were quick to provide an estimate (John) and comparably priced. They were able to get me scheduled within a week and the crews cleaned up well.

I used Rodas Construction LLC to replace my roof that was damaged by storm and rain.
The Rodas team was very knowledgeable and helped me through get thru the process of choosing a new roof and provided pictures of the damage for insurance purposes.
It was a pleasure to work with them. I recommend this team for your roofing needs.

Loved working with Rodas Construction on our bath renovation. They were great to work with and we love how everything turned out! Can’t wait to work with them on future projects!

The roof was done very fast but after 4 years shingles started to shed in all directions. Not to mention all the random nails sticking out everywhere in my attic. Rodas stands behind their work for only two years so, I was told it would be $400 to look at the issue.
I’m not a roofer but, if you spend nearly 13k you would think the work would last longer than 4 years. I won’t be spending any more money with Rodas that’s for sure!!
I don’t recommend Rodas.

We highly recommend Rodas construction for your next project. Enrique, Steve, Larissa, Mike and Janice and the workers who came to the house were all professional and a pleasure to work with. To the team… Thank you all for transforming our attic into a beautiful and functional space. We appreciated your attention to detail. This project was completed timely and this addition was a positive experience . Everyone was good with cleaning up at the end of the day which is a positive for us and communication was never an issue. Someone was always available and responsive to questions.

Enrique and his crews did an outstanding job during our renovation of our screened in porch into a 4 season room for our house. They obtained all the necessary permits, took down the previous decking materials, ordered and put in windows, exterior door, outside siding to match our existing siding, added HVAC and electrical to this room, put in new hard wood floors and stained them to match other floors in our house, and also painted new room inside and out. Erique and all of his crews were all the best that you would want to work with you on any project. They were all very helpful, timely, neat. Their work exceeded my expectations on this project.

I hired Rodas Construction this summer to do a shingle tear-off with a new Grey metal roof in Wake County. The completed product was great, but I had a large amount of issues along the way. Because many roofing companies do not have a metal crew, my crew came out of Wilmington (Note: roofing companies sub-contract out their work, so the crew who did the installation are not Rodas Construction employees):

The Good:

The finished product was great. The crew out of Wilmington was professional, timely, hard working, etc... They cleaned up the grounds every day, took care to make sure I was satisfied, and always asked if I had any questions. My father was present during the installation (he owned a roofing company in FL for 35 years), and they took no issues with him reviewing their install. The completed product was great:

The Bad:

Original deposit (30%) was provided in June 15th to Rodas. I heard nothing in between the first and second deposit provided in August 7th (next 30%). The time is not uncommon as I got speciality metal, but I was left in the dark for 6 weeks without knowing a project schedule, etc...

During the sales pitch, I was promised a new exhaust boot with a 50 year warranty! I found out during construction those boots cannot be installed on metal (shingle only) which the Salesman had no clue of.

Material was delivered and Construction started September 5th. I paid extra for Stainless steel screws (standard on a metal roof is Zinc Screws), and peel and stick weathershield (thick sticky tar paper) to be placed on the Entire roof. Most roofers install it on valleys and ridges only. Rodas ordered the cheaper tar paper and Zinc screws and tried to slide it past me. I caught them, and made them order the correct material.

The salesman never did a formal dimensional takeoff of my roof. 4 days into construction, we were 3 panels short to complete the job (see picture). This was 7 days before the hurricane, and was told by the salesman the roof is dried in, and we'll try to come back before the storm. The owner got involved, and expedited the material to complete the following week.

My roof is a striated dark grey metal (striated has waves in the metal). Flat black metal was ordered. A different crew came back the day before the hurricane and installed the flat black metal (on a grey roof) to dry the roof in before the hurricane so my house wouldn't flood during the storm.

2 weeks passed, and I did not hear a word from Rodas. I called the salesman with no response. They sent 1 member of the crew to my house from Wilmington without telling me on Saturday morning. I was not notified, I was out of the state, AND the correct material was never delivered. There was no metal to even install. At this point I've had black metal on my roof for 3 weeks.

2 more weeks passed: The salesman ordered more metal (flat grey), and was wrong again. 2 more weeks passed and I had the incorrect grey panels sitting in my front yard. Finally, I called the owner and got him involved. I offered to call the supply house and order the correct material personally. He came to my house, got the crew set up, the correct panels ordered, and completed the job. Overall, the roof took 7-1/2 weeks for a job that should have taken 3-4 days total. Tread with caution.. My experience was terrible.

Rodas did a spectacular job on multiple projects around the house. They designed and built an awesome new master bathroom, deck and path! We highly recommend Rodas for any home maintenance or update.

Great experience from day 1. Very professional and courteous. Always seeking input to assure our desires were being met. Really appreciated their input on suggestions and ideas. Well pleased with the final product, on time and at budget. Highly recommend Rodas Construction for any project you may have

I would like to thank the owner of Rodas Construction for personally reviewing the work completed on my mom’s house and inspecting the roof leak. My mom mentioned that a team visited and surveyed the area. The owner apologized for any miscommunication, which we appreciate and have accepted. While I don’t completely agree with everything, I do appreciate that they took the time to come out.

This is a difficult review for reasons you’ll see in the attached images and has been edited. We’re generally grateful to have the work done which is why we stomached the effort dealing with disgruntled salesman, effort on our part reviewing and pointing out construction issues, and long time around the whole project.

That said, the radio silence in addressing noticeable and concerning roofing issue and additional out of pocket cost to fix is pretty concerning.

Chris, Javi, and Steve of Rodas Construction have worked their hardest to make our dream of a screened porch a realty over the past 6 months while still being affordable! We look forward to meals outside with mesh screens to keep bugs out and a pleasant, relaxing breeze. Hands down, best investment we could make and certainly one we’re enjoying!

Great local company with a knowledgeable, attentive team. I met with Larissa and they were incredibly kind and hospitable. Rodas Construction takes pride in what they do while putting their customers at the heart of everything that they do.

My husband and I recently had our 1980s bathroom remodeled by Rodas Construction, and I couldn't be happier. The team was not only skilled and hardworking but also exceptionally kind and thoughtful. The project was completed beautifully within the agreed-upon timeline, and all the promises were kept. I am thrilled with the results and highly recommend them. Looking forward to working with them again in the future! -Tana Widdows | Realtor | COMPASS | Chapel Hill North Carolina

We had an excellent experience with the whole team at Rodas Construction! John took care of everything from start to finish, including coordinating with our insurance company so all storm damage—roof and interior—was covered. They scheduled our roof replacement quickly, and helped us pick the right shingle color for our home. The crew was professional and efficient, completing the roof and interior work all in the same day. This is a great local company that will provide thorough and reliable work. We highly recommend!

Rodas built a Master Bedroom, with Bathroom and walk in closet addition to our home in North Raleigh. Steve helped us plan the addition to flow with the downstairs of our house. He gave us a fair price to do the job. He kept giving the city documents needed to get Building Permit. Enrique is wonderful to work with on the construction of the unit. He is well liked and respected by all of the Sub Contractors. Between different phases of construction we never waited longer than a couple of days. Rodas does not cut any corners. I had some rotten wood on the back side of my house and Enrique insisted on repairing it properly. They sure did get it right. I heard someone in my new crawl space late one day. I went under there after workman left and he had cleaned it spotless and laid thick plastic on the Crawl Floor. I hated the metal track threshold on the French Doors. I asked them to remove it. They custom built me a new one out of solid oak--Picture attached.
Besides my dog barking for 4 months it was a smooth build, and a pleasure working with Rodas. All inspections passed quickly. Rodas does everything by the book. The office staff are very friendly and professional too. My wife and I are so happy with the new space. Check out the Pics.

We called Rodas Construction on a Wednesday and received a call back within 15 minutes. We had the pleasure of meeting with Chris on Thursday and was able to get a rough estimate on site. Chris noticed hail damage and took multiple pictures of proof, he then was able to submit a claim with my insurance company by the following morning. I was not available to meet the adjuster but Chris was able and walked the roof with my agent that same day. The adjuster verified the damage and by Friday Chris was able to schedule the roof replacement for Monday morning. Chris explained the option to take out a construction loan via Rodas with Medallion bank. I was able to complete the loan agreement in minutes and within hours it was approved with a 10.99% interest rate. Monday arrives and so does the Rodas crew at 7 am they worked fast and where friendly and accommodating. Chris called with regular updates thru out the day and really the entire process. We had alot of wood rot and the crew was able to repair it all and be done within 12 hours with the house roof and shed roof. Chris explained all the damage and what was done to fix the damage with detail. The painters showed up on Tuesday to fix some existing soffit damage and paint where it was needed per our contract. On Wednesday our new gutters arrived with leaf guards. The whole process was so very easy and if I had a complaint it is that we did not find Rodas Construction and Chris sooner. Thank you for all your work and attention to detail, we look forward to our next project with Rodas and Chris.
