"Telmo [Cabrera, owner] worked promptly and professionally to get our new roof papered and shingled before the house could suffer further rain damage," says Michael Mackay of Pelham, N.Y.

"He was genuinely concerned that our site be quickly protected, yet he did not cut corners. Telmo skillfully solved the challenges of flashing around the eyebrow window and chimney.

"Instead of soldering separate sheets for the chimney, he worked with one continuous sheet of copper, improving both the look and water-tightness of the final product. He was always enthusiastic about finding the 'right' solution in terms of quality, cost and time, even if it meant taking home a little less profit at the end of the day.

"Such integrity is very hard to find."
