Why This Southside Homeowner Is Happy He Chose Retex

Katelyn Lewis • April 11, 2023

Richmond, VA, homeowner Reggie Bates was scrolling through social media when he first came into contact with Retex Roofing & Exteriors. 

Around the same time, his homeowners’ insurance informed him he would need to replace his roof to keep his coverage. So he decided to give us a call. 


After receiving estimates from several roofing contractors, Reggie chose Retex to replace his roof in August 2021. Here's what he had to say about his experience:


"After talking to Mark and Josh, they just made me feel comfortable with the whole process," Reggie says. “We went over everything, they showed me, you know, everything from step A to step Z, and this just was a phenomenal interaction, so I’m just glad I chose Retex.”


"The whole process was just completely thorough, very transparent – there was nothing hidden. And as you can see, by the results, I’d recommend them to anyone looking for a company that’s true to their word."


Listen to Reggie’s experience using Retex to replace his roof while seeing how it looks today.
