Client Review: Ken Klippen Shares On Replacing His Roof With Retex

Katelyn Lewis • March 21, 2023

Ken Klippen lives in the beautiful Birkdale neighborhood of Midlothian, and he reached out to Retex in October 2022 after receiving one of our mailers.

He wanted an estimate for whether he needed to repair or replace his roof – he told us it was about 16 years old, and while it looked fine, he knew it was getting older and he wanted to install a ridge vent for better attic ventilation.


After meeting with Retex’s Mark Erickson, Ken quickly said yes to our quote, and less than three weeks later, he had a new Tamko Heritage “Rustic Black” shingle roof and gutter guards installed on his home.


Here’s what Ken had to say about working with Retex:


“The staff are very conscientious and professional. It is a pleasure doing business with the staff at Retex.”


Thanks so much for choosing to work with us, Ken – we were happy to walk you through your roof replacement options, and are so grateful you chose to use Retex for your home.
