Do they hand-nail roofs?

Yes. Reviewers note entire roofs are hand-nailed, taking 2 days or more depending on pitch, with extra care to prevent leaks.

Will they finish punch-list work after the main job?

Mixed record. Recent reviews praise cleanup and safety, but older reviews report unfinished rain guards, satellite dishes, and months of no callback on promised follow-up.

What recent reviews say

Long-time Augusta roofing shop with strong technical work (hand-nailing, storm damage inspection) when crews show up, but increasingly spotty on follow-through, callback responsiveness, and post-job completions.

Based on limited recent reviews, so treat this as low-confidence.

Recent shift: Quality and responsiveness appear to have slipped over the past 3-5 years; earlier reviews (4-6 years ago) highlight Bob and crew reliability; more recent one-star reviews cite missed appointments and ignoring callback requests.

Praised for

skilled, careful hand-nail work
fast, reliable completion
cleanup and professionalism
responsive owner communication

Watch-outs

poor follow-up on punch-list items
missed or delayed appointments
inconsistent job quality over time

skilled-workmanshipcleans-up-after-jobpunctualmissed-deadlinespoor-communicationdelayed-response

Best for: homeowners willing to pay a premium for careful hand-nail work and safety practices.

Think twice if: You need quick callback service on punch-list items or have had prior work done; some reviewers report being ignored for months on finishing details.

Strengths

hand-nails entire roof for durability
family expertise passed through generations
detects and corrects hidden damage

Worth knowing

Bob Stevens, Jr. leads sales and field decisions
crew hand-nails entire roofs (10/12 pitch jobs noted)
takes 2 days instead of 1 due to deliberate pace
workers use safety ropes and harnesses
identifies hidden valleys and corrects them
sends photo proof of work completed

What reviews say by service

Roof Replacement: hand-nailing and storm-safe work praised; one 8-year-old job failed, owner unresponsive to recall.
Roof Inspection & Insurance Claims: quick binoculars-only inspection criticized; hidden valley detection praised in another job.

Hero Roofing

5.0(21)✓ Google-verified

Hero Roofing consistently delivers clear communication and transparent pricing. Daniel and Christian stand out for explaining work step-by-step, staying in contact throughout projects, and handling storm damage with urgency. Crews completed roofs in single days, cleaned up thoroughly, and tackled repairs other companies declined. The team moved fast after hurricanes while other contractors were still slow to respond. Staff kept homeowners informed at every stage and often went beyond the original scope. Work quality earns repeated mentions. Pricing strikes reviewers as fair, and the company prioritizes repair over unnecessary full replacement. No negative feedback appears across reviews.
