Constraction reviews in Austin, Texas

Our experience with Green Knight was a smooth one from start to finish. They had someone come out to give us a quote the day after I called, and our new roof was installed less than a month later. No pushy sells, just helpful and honest. I recommend them if you're in the market for a metal roof.

We had a major hail storm that severely damaged our roof, putting 4 softball size holes in the decking. (Our roof was originally asphalt shingles). The next day, our neighborhood was crawling with roofing companies, but not Green Knight. I knew I wanted a metal roof and a reputable company that specialized in metal roofing. I found Green Knight on the internet, checked out their website, Google reviews and the BBB. Everyone seemed to rave about them so I gave them a call. Pam answered, listened to my story about how I came to have holes in my roof and said she thought she could get somebody out that day. She asked if she could call me right back once she confirmed. Less than five minutes later she called back to say someone would be out within 2 hours.
As promised, Michael came out, told us about Green Knight and their products, offered marketing materials and color samples to choose from and promised a quote later that day.
The next day, we signed the contract and they sent a crew out to patch the roof as more weather was expected that night.
They told us the lead time was 6-8 weeks. At week 6 we received a call that they were ready to install the roof and wanted to send a supervisor over to go over everything before starting. I wasn’t sure what this for but as it turned out, it gave me a lot of confidence in Green Knight. The supervisor came out with a checklist, went over everything the crew would be doing, where materials would be staged, where the dumpster would go, what to expect from a noise level, etc. Just setting the expectations.
The job took a full week to complete and everyday the crew arrived on time, cleaned up the job site and went over the area with a large magnet to pickup any loose nails or screws. The roof looks great and we are very happy with the experience we had with Green Knight. I would recommend them to anyone in need of a metal roof.

We love our new roof! The entire process was smooth, from the initial phone call through the beautiful, finished product.

When we decided to use Green Knight, Joel and Brett came to the house, thoroughly explained the entire process, and answered all of our questions completely. We appreciated Green Knights’ commitment to not only providing a quality roof but also how they treated their employees and customers with respect.

Brad came to the house for the final pre-job walk-through and conversation. He explained the construction process, where the dumpster would go, where they would set up the extruding equipment, and when they expected to start.

At the end of every work day, the crew cleaned up completely and when they completed our roof, they left our property looking like they had never been there.

We could not be happier with Green Knight’s team, their communication, and, especially, our new metal roof.

Working with Green Knight was great! From picking out the color and style of roof we wanted, to the time they spent explaining the installation step-by-step, to responding to our ad hoc questions and requests quickly and satisfactorily, we couldn’t have been more pleased. We have a complicated roof which required several cuts/days, and installation occurred this summer during the HORRIBLE 105+ degree stretch. The crew was there every day and muscled through the heat safely and impressively!
Thanks to Joel, Brett, Ryan, and our installation crew – we love our new roof!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Joel and Green Knight Metal Roofing, and we are beyond impressed with their service! Joel took the time to explain every detail of the roofing process and answered all our questions. Our roof and new gutters look great and we will be recommending them to all of our friends and family.

Our new metal roof looks great. Green Knight did a really nice job for us. They were helpful in explaining the process, all of our options, and in setting accurate expectations. They worked diligently on the project, and took care of my questions and all the details I asked them to pay special attention to. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to a friend.

Thank you to the entire Green Knight team for such an awesome experience working with you ALL from start to finish.
We called 5 different companies to get a quote. One highly advertised metal roof company wanted to charge us a 150.00 trip charge to come meet us and give us a presentation quote or they could satellite measure our roof and get back with us. I told them NO THANK YOU. One company was a scheduled appointment NO SHOW !! We dismissed 2 companies because they were more shingle specialist type companies that offered some metal roof experience. We called Green Knight to schedule an appointment and Green Knight made us feel like an important priority.
Our sales rep Mike took all the time that WE needed getting our questions answered. He represented his company with pride in assuring us of the quality of Green Knights craftsmanship. Your home is a big investment and a quality roof offers not only appeal, but a long durability warranty, energy savings, and never having to have a roofer come replace weather damaged shingles. Everything was kept clean and organized during the installation. The install team were all so polite.
We are the proud owners of a stunningly beautiful quality Green Knight roof for the rest of our lives.
We want to say thank you to everyone at Green Knight that we met
And all who worked on our project. Ismael, you and your team rock ! To our sales Rep Mike, thank you again for the recipe !!

Green Knight installed a new metal roof, gutters and chimney cover/cap at our home in Driftwood (completed in October 24). We could not have had a better experience. They showed up on time, were highly professional, cleaned up well every day, and listened to any minor concerns we had and addressed them during the job. The roofing product installed is a new slate-look metal sheet system, so they brought in one of their product specialists from out of town so he could supervise the installation. We were very impressed by the whole process and have gotten numerous compliments on the results. We highly recommend Green Knight!

Green Knight Roofing (and Michael) did a very nice and professional job for me when they reroofed my entire house. I am preparing for solar panels, and got rid of 6 skylights (the solar panels will cover up the sun from reaching those anyway), which left 6 holes in my roof. As long as I was putting on a whole new roof as part of repairing those 6 holes, Green Knight added 4 inches of insulation (this raising the roof 4 inches).

They also installed all new gutters, the end result looks really nice.

As part of this, Green Knight did some custom new changed routing of my gutters. One of the old gutters had a really ugly downspout right in the center of my back patio, so Green Knight figured out how to route it away in a different direction to get rid of the down spout blocking the view.

Opportunistically, I needed to run ethernet cables from end to end of my house and trenching through drywall would have been absolutely brutal. So I had Green Knight "pause work" after they ripped off the old roof and let me string a bunch of network cables on the underlayment of the roof, then Green Knight put down the extra 4 inches of insulation, then Green Knight put the metal roof on top. It worked beautifully well and was "free" and took about 20 minutes for me to string networking all over my house.

I'd use Green Knight again.

We started a very lengthy roof estimate process for a metal roof on our home. These guys are the real deal, they are uniquely equipped in the metal roofing biz because it's all they do. Brett came out and answered every question we had, stayed longer to show us project photos and color samples, very nice person and very knowledgeable. They do something different than most companies, they will provide their estimate on the spot which will save you time and allow you to customize your quote in real-time. If you are rabbit-holing on metal roofing, talk to these guys, they can be as technical as you'd like them to be. They are using the best materials and you wont be disappointed.

We love our new metal roof! The work was done by an efficient and courteous crew. From sales to install, the team was highly skilled and professional. The quality of their product exceeded our expectations in every way. We are pleased to recommend Green Knight Metal Roofing.

We recently had Green Knight metal roofing company install a new roof, and we couldn’t be more pleased with their exceptional service from start to finish. Their team provided top-notch customer service, clear, communications and impressive attention to detail. The entire process was seamless and they made sure we were informed every step of the way.

We would like to give special recognition to Ismail for his prompt responses and excellent communication throughout the project. He always answered our questions quickly and made sure all of our concerns were addressed, which gave us great peace of mind. The cleanup after the installation was impeccable. They left our properties spotless. We highly recommend Green Knight roofing for anyone looking for a professional reliable and customer for company. Thank you for a fantastic experience.

My experience with Green Knight was seamless. I wanted to use a company that exclusively installed metal roofs and had some longevity in the business. Green Knight had a high percentage of very positive reviews from multiple sites so they were the first company I called and felt no need to continue my search. Sales team member Brett was very informative, answered all my questions and was able to give me a great recommendation of color choice for the roof. I appreciated that I did not have the high pressure salesman experience. He was able to give me some accurate timelines on the start to finish of the project.
Installation was very smooth. I had a hard working very skilled crew who not only focused on installing but on the abundant debris removal.
Ryan the project manager did a post installation walk through with me and addressed some small issues in a very timely thorough manner. Green Knight customer service definitely gets an A+.
My new metal roof has gotten so many compliments as it should because it looks great.

We started our residential project and began work in the winter with Green Knight.

The project didn’t get off to a great start, we had challenges in many areas including the weather, our stone siding, aesthetics and some of the labor provided as well.

After working with the owner and Steve(who is a highly skilled roofer) we were able to devise a plan for success, Steve and his team spent countless days/hours with our family to make sure to update us on every step and to ensure the roof came out exactly how we wanted it.

Steve was highly communicative with a customer first attitude and had a high standard of quality. He was also very direct, no sugar coating(which I appreciated). If we were not happy they would perform the task again until we reached perfection.

After hard work on both sides we have a wonderfully finished product, a roof that many of our neighbors have complimented and is aesthetically significantly more pleasing than our prior Presidential shingles. We are happy with the high quality product and finish we received from Green Knight.

Our experience with Green Knight was nothing but positive, beginning with our initial salesman, Brett, to the finished product. Ours was a relatively large roof (almost 8,000 sq feet) with lots of angles, skylights, etc.

It rained shortly after demolition of the old roof began.. we had leakage inside the house in several places.. within minutes it seemed, Joel, the onsite supervisor was on the premises with 3 helpers up in the attic, while the roofers were up on the roof, in the rain, getting tarps over the exposed areas. There was a bit of ceiling discoloration afterward, but they quickly sent drywall and paint guys who did a very professional job of restoring everything back to normal.

Once the job was complete, the crew spent a good half day making sure every nail and metal scrap was picked up and discarded.

It was a long (almost 4 weeks) and anxious process, but Joel, Ishmael, and the crew were right on the job to remedy the numerous things that went wrong. This was likely the job from hell for this crew, but they persevered and the end result is a beautiful, natural finish roof that exudes quality and craftsmanship.

We're confident we couldn't have chosen a better roofing company, and highly recommend to anyone considering a metal roof. Apparently metal roofs is the only thing they do, and they clearly have the entire process, including customer communication, down to a science!

8 months in with our beautiful metal roof. We have survived 2 days of 50 MPH winds closely followed by 10” of rain in 2 days! Thanks to Green Knight for a job well done!

Green Knight was able to roof our new home. We had a modern build with an odd shaped roof. It took a few times, but they listened to our aesthetic requests and finished the roof to our liking.
Their professionalism is why they get 5 stars from us.

This rating for me was because the project was “good”. I was placated enough to sign off on the final approval.

This was partially because after 2-3 weeks from materials being dropped off to the final time the crew came by, I was tired of dealing with it.

I didn’t know what to expect going into this as a new homeowner but wasn’t impressed. Not only was every single date I was told by my project manager wrong (yes every. Single. Date) and only 1 time did the project manager message me to tell me that timelines had changed.

I spoke up to my sales consultant after a few days went by after I was told the crew would arrive to begin the project, and Green Knight promptly sent a crew of 2 people over the next day to begin the project.

I have never heard of a crew of 2 people for a roof, and while working from home full time, it wasn’t the most pleasant experience to drag this out so long. On top of this, I have a dog who enjoys the yard. Crew frequently left the gate open after leaving for the day, occasionally left food scraps and trash in the yard that my dog found his way into as well.

When the crew had taken off the shingles, they did not completely remove the original tar paper underlay, but instead stapled the new synthetic underlay on top. My project manager told me this was normal - but that isn’t what I expected. For a roof that is supposed to last 50 years, it seemed like corners were being cut unnecessarily.

My project manager only visited the job site 3 times, once before the project began, once one day for a 5 minute walk around (without touching base with me) and then after the crew had finished for a final walk through.

I’m not interested in managing the project myself, and when my one point of contact is completely absent, it’s not giving me confidence.

Make sure you have open soffit vents because while I’m happy that my gabel vents were closed (for thermal efficiency) my soffit vents were clogged up before the project started. My sales consultant told me the crew would make sure they were open, but at the final walk through my pm told me I could clear them out myself. I was able to open them up myself, but I didn’t anticipate having to finish the job myself. If I didn’t have intimate knowledge of my vents going into this, the resulting product would have been a completely sealed attic, rendering my ridge vent useless.

The crew cleaned up nails and trash very well at the end, and overall I’m happy with the final product. However, for the most expensive thing I’ve ever bought with cash in my life, I was not impressed with the process. I’m thankful that Green Knight was able to do this project for me during such a huge demand of roofing in the area, but unfortunately this high demand may have caused the customer service side to suffer.

2024 Review:
Very happy with Green Knight and their workmanship - my roof looks incredible! This is my 2nd time to use Green Knight to install a metal roof on my home – each time they get the job done right and the roof looks great! A severe hailstorm in the Mueller neighborhood, Austin, TX (baseball size) totaled my first metal roof. Neighbors always ask who installed my metal roof because the galvanized metal is clearly visible from all sides of my one-story home. It has become a showcase of how nice a home can look paired with a metal roof. If you have any expectations, questions communicate with the sales rep or supervisor on your job; they will do what they can to work with you. I also recommend you stay actively involved with your install so you can be proactive with any questions you might. At the end of the day, Green Knight is very reputable and I am happy that I again partnered with them. (Mueller Neighborhood)

2022 Review: The 5 star rating comes with caveats. #1 stay actively engaged with your crew. There was an initial lack of communication about all the style options available to me i.e. (ridge caps and finishing trim) during the sales process - but once I got engaged with the crew and during the 'walk through' before the work began, there was common agreement on the craftsmanship details and everyone was quite responsive. (I opted for a low profile cap ridge look) The crew was fast, efficient, and respectful of my requests for certain finishing details.Those finishing touches on the metal roof (ridge caps and curb appeal features) were most important to me so I drove around town and took pictures of metal roofs I liked and they replicated the details. They cleaned the work area every day and that was fantastic. I hope they begin to build a portfolio of roofs they have done so you are most informed up front. #2 If you don't like a detail or have concerns speak up with the crew while the work is happening and they will make it right. #3 Their referral program is disappointing - you are told there is a $50 gift card for all referrals you make but it is not really a gift card - it is a $50 credit to select restaurants - a club membership and the $250 cash referral for those referrals who actually sign on is only for the new purchaser - not you. All in all, I got an incredible crew to work on my roof and their Director of Operations is the glue to everything positive that happened at my home. My home looks fabulous.

Best home investment EVER and the company, Green Knight metal roofing, out surpassed my expectations. our salesperson was detailed and knowledgeable. The job foreman was Johnny on the spot with answers to my questions on the installation. So thank you to Joel, Steven, Michael, Ryan, Ismael and the actual workers who put up such a beautiful roof. well done.

Green Knight recently replaced my aging asphalt shingle roof with Tek metal shingles. Both David (sales rep) and Steven (responsible for the actual roof installation) were consistently on time, and were very responsive to my questions in person and over text. The roofing crew showed up each day when they said they would, and worked hard throughout the project. They were respectful and considerate of where they parked and placed equipment, and went over the ground with magnets to ensure that no metal debris was left to get into paws or tires. The new roof looks great. I would definitely use them again if needed (although my new roof is likely to outlive me) and I recommend that anyone needing a new roof consider hiring them.
