Testimonials

In 40 years of home ownership I have never had a better experience with a contractor that the one Carl from NLC provided. From the initial assessment to his expert knowledge of the process, I had complete confidence in the project outcome. Whenever I had a question, I received a timely and informative reply. Carl always maintained a professional demeanor and represented our interest in multiple intereactions with insurance representatives. Thank you New Life Contacting, especially Carl, for a great follow through and outcome!

New life contracting just replaced our roof this month. Jerry who is the contractor, and his crew were outstanding in everything they did. They cleaned thoroughly after job was completed. Jerry came out after the job was done to do a final inspection with us present to make sure that we were totally satisfied with the installation and look of the roof, and we definitely were. We would highly recommend them.

After a bad hail storm we were concerned about how to deal with insurance to handle issues with our roof and siding. Zak R made it so our dealing with the insurance company consisted of signing a couple documents and and we were ready to get started. This process would have been way more difficult without the professional help from New Life Contracting and I will recommend them to anybody in a similar situation, and hopefully we won’t have any more to our home but will definitely use them again if the situation arises!

We started our journey with New Life when Gabriel came to our door. He made everything not just easy, but fun. He helped me file the claim on the spot and about 10 days later when our adjuster came Gabriel met him. The adjuster agreed with everything Gabriel had worked up and shortly thereafter we had a new roof. The New Life team showed up as scheduled and did the whole job in just two days. Gabriel and Eddie walked us through everything and the crew was great. No mess or collateral landscape damage at all. They even moved our gas grill for us to get it out of the way. I have already recommended Gabriel and New Life to the neighbors. I am sure they have had the same great experience.

Working with New Life Contracting and Carl was amazing! The new roof his crew put in the house is stunning! Carl takes all the stress and headaches associated with dealing with the insurance companies! Recommend these guys to all of my friends and family after the storms the twin cities received this summer.
