We had a wonderful experience with Yama's Roofing. They were courteous, conscientious, and very professional. We had several questions that they very patiently answered, and the quality of their work is evident. Everyone we dealt with at the company was pleasant, and we have zero hesitation recommending them to others in need of roofing services. It is so reassuring to have a water-tight roof.

Yama's Roofing repaired my roof after a huge tree branch landed on it during a lightning, rain & wind storm. The branch had to be taken off the roof by a professional tree service. They did a great job as that branch would have taken down the fence & damage the side of my house had it been pushed off the roof! Finally the roof was ready to be repaired. Can't say enough good things about the Yamas roofers! The crew worked well together and were finished in about an hour! It looks brand new where the repair is located. I would recommend Yama"s Roofing. Great company!

Yama's Roofing has done an excellent job on a 40+ year old roof. Brian was knowledgeable, patient, and had answers to my many questions. They handled all aspects of the re-roofing, solar on/off roof as needed, electrical issues that arose during the project. Gutters were replaced as well. We too, had to wait our turn but patience has paid off and we are pleased with our new roof/gutters. The Drone view of the roof as it progressed was great and the crew is one of many talents.... fascia repair/replace, drywall repair as needed. Communication with Brian was terrific, phone, text, email.... very responsive. Kelly in the office "keeps it together"... Yeah Yama's!Services: Gutter repairs, Roof inspection, Roof installation

YAMA'S ROOFING excellent service, from initial contact with Brian (with a ton of questions) about changing the roof and installing new gutters, to the completion of the job....ABOVE AND BEYOND my expectations!!! Very impressed with how well the crew work together to get the job done. Beyond professional, "seamless" (pun intended). They all know exactly what to do and how to do it, all business. Even my neighbors were impressed, they came over to ask how long the guys were working together because from beginning to end everything was so smooth.BEST ROOFING COMPANY!!Services: Gutter installation, Roof installation

Yama’s Roofing did an excellent job! The crew worked well together and were polite and fast. Our house is 80 years old and my only regret is, I didn’t take a before and after picture.

Brian was very friendly and easy to work with. This was the second time using Yama's Roofing. I had my mom's roof replaced a few months back and did a great job! He was very prompt with his responses to our questions and concerns. They painted our roof while we were away on a trip. We came back to a beautiful roof and everything was clean and in order. I would highly recommend Yama's Roofing!

I never imagined hiring a roofing company could be so enjoyable. Yama’s Roofing office staff, Brian and the Yama’s crew were more than professional and very helpful. Communication with them was always pleasant and efficient. All questions answered in a timely manner and Brian went out of his way to meet and share roofing samples. Yama’s Roofing prices are very fair even during this time of high construction costs. Brian and his crew were friendly and their workmanship awesome. They were prompt, clean and left my property in better condition then when they arrived. Brian was on site with the crew and addressed any concerns promptly. At the completion of my project, Brian even gave me an aerial photos of my beautify new roof. I am so pleased with Yama’s Roofing that 7 months later I hired them again for another roofing job. If you’re looking for a five star roofing contractor who actually cares about your needs and offers fair pricing, give Brain at Yama’s Roofing a call. They took good care of me and I’m sure they’ll take good care of you too!!Services: Gutter repairs, Gutter installation, Roof inspection, Roof installation, Roof damage repair

Brian and Yama Roofing were a pleasure to work with. I was not on the island during the project and Brian was able to work with us through every part of the process. We are very happy with our new roof. I would recommend Yama Roofing.

Replaced roof on older, single wall 1000 sq foot Hilo house. Yamas was cheaper than the one other quote we got (by a fair amount, or we'd have gone with the company that installed our solar hot water awhile back). Brian answered our questions and gave us quotes for various options. Took awhile for our turn to come up, but when it did, things went quickly and smoothly, including pulling off and replacing solar hot water panels. At Brian's recommendation, we had new, larger gutters installed at the same time. Also had Yamas relocate the existing hot water tank from inside laundry room to outside the house, and that went fine. Happy with the results, and son, who lives there, says the house is cooler--guessing it's the color change: old roof was red; new is almond.Services: Gutter installation, Roof installation

We did our research before selecting a company for our roofing needs. A few important things we were looking for - licensed & reputable, locally owned, community minded and Hawaii Island roots. Cost was depended upon those things because if the company and owner met our basic requirements - we knew during this time of inflation - we would have to pay whatever quote we received. But we were confident enough when we made our decision that Yama's Roofing could be trusted to complete the job of reroofing our home that's over 30 years old. The owner - Brian Petersen was easy to communicate with via email. He was attentive to answer our questions. Made our appt to pay deposit and now we wait for our turn for our home to be reroofed. It'll give us time to put together the remaining funds, clear rubbish and clutter of living in this home for 30 years and begin to visualize the renovations to follow the new roof installation! Mahalo nui Brian and Yama's Roofing!

When I got ready to replace our existing roof I asked five different companies for quotes. Yama's Roofing was the first to respond. After a couple of weeks I had the quotes I needed. I also had the time to ask a few people about their experiences with the roofing company they used recently. Yama's Roofing was not the least nor the highest quote. I choose them based on what people were telling me about their service. I contacted Brian at Yama's and told him I'd like to hire them. He was efficient and professional. Kelly from the office was easy to work with as well. As for the crew of guys that showed up on the day of the install they were MAGNIFICENT. They are the best team of roofers on the island. I thank each of them. Roof was torn off and the new one put on in a matter of hours. Awesome crew. I highly recommend Yama's Roofing.Service: Roof installation

I collected three quotes to reroof and replace gutters for our home. One company came and never got back to me with an estimate and Yama's Roofing was a few thousand dollars less than the other company. Brian (from Yama's Roofing) explained the different types of roofing, cost, and provided pertinent information before we made our decision. I changed my mind several times, asking for new quotes and each time, he patiently accommodated me. Brian responded to my concerns immediately, even on weekends and evenings. I had complications with my PV panels being removed/re-installed and although it wasn't his kuleana, Brian was willing to come by to ensure things were being done properly. He came by several times to ensure our roofing project was on schedule and kept us informed on progress. His crew worked hard, was polite and cleaned up after finishing each day. After the new roof and gutters were complete, I have had so many neighbors and friends compliment how our home looks brand new and how the new roof made such a big difference. This is the second time I have hired Yama's Roofing to replace the entire house roofing and both times I have been a satisfied customer!Services: Gutter installation, Roof installation

Five years ago, we moved back home from working on Oahu. Got a roof quote at that time from a different company that was working in our neighborhood. Price was above what Brian quoted us this year! Glad we didn’t go with that company back in 2017. Brian and his crew are hardworking people and showed up on time, rain or shine. We had a hiccup, but Brian kept us in the loop and we had a new roof completed on my birthday. What a wonderful gift! Thank you to Brian and his crew for a job well done.Service: Roof installation

I felt treated like FAMILY.I am very pleased with their EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY OF WORK, PROMPTNESS and CLEANLINESS.I will definitely do business with them again.

Yama’s roofing did a great job on my roof. From start to finish it was a very good experience. The price was very reasonable, they came when they said they would, and they did a very professional installation. Most importantly it has rained everyday since I got my new roof and there hasn’t been a single leak. I highly recommend Yama’s roofing.

We are so happy with Yama's Roofing because they replaced the old roofing which apparently had several problems. Their new roofing, which fixed those problems, has unexpectedly resulted in cooling our house down. It looks pretty too! I would definitely use them again. And their workers were polite and professional.Service: Roof installation

Yamas did a great job installing our new standing seam roof and matching gutters. The crew was friendly, efficient, and professional. After the install was complete the jobsite was left clean and looking great. Brian made sure the job was completed in a timely manner as promised. I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you Yamas!Services: Gutter installation, Roof installation

Brian & the guys did an awesome job working on our house and garage roof. They also came and did our custom gutters to match our roof color. They were very professional and I would highly recommend them for all your roofing & gutter needs. Also Kelly in the office was so nice and such a big help! Mahalo Yama's Roofing!

The owner of Yama's roofing, Brian, is a local and humble person to work with. He listened to what I wanted (a cooler house). The whirley vent and the foil insulation they installed when changing my whole roof really made the heat in the interior of the house much, much cooler. I also caulked some holes in the ceiling when I saw light peeping through these holes as they removed the roof. These guys did a great job and I would highly, highly recommend them. Even after installing my roof, Brian did things outside of our contract, like change the bathroom venting. Local braddah who will be honest and the bid was very competitive with other roofers. Actually one of the better prices out there. Their work is superb!

We had a great experience with Yamas - they installed a new metal roof on our home and they were very professional. After a week with 15" of rain, the roof was fine, but we realized that another downspout was needed on a long gutter stretch. I talked to Brian and they added the downspout within 24 hours at no cost.

I hired Yama's to re-roof our lanai roof that another contractor royally messed up because he tried to cut corners and do things on the cheap, and he likely knows little about roofing, even though he built our lanai structure. A roofer I know who fixed our tiles submitted a bid to this contractor who flat-out rejected it, and instead installed rolled comp with a nail gun of all things. No blackjack. It was a disaster, and I received a bid from several other roofers but they were twice as much as Yama's and did not involve as good of a product.Nobody can see this roof except by drone. Yama's installed gutterguard flashing so the water flows from the back directly to the front gutters, which they also installed, and both downspouts drain perfectly, which is more than I can say about the gutter along the back of our lanai.This entire process started by tearing down the existing lanai roof structure because the previous owners had tipped it back into the house, which flooded the eaves. The only way to fix it was to tear it down and rebuild without attaching it to the expensive Japanese roof tiles. But after the contractor finished, the problems just piled up. It leaked. It buckled. It was a horrendous experience I don't wish on anybody, and my recourse was either to sue the moron or make him reimburse me for that portion of the job. We settled. But I will never recommend that guy to anyone.On the plus side, Yama's roofing did an excellent job. They were pushed out a few weeks, especially with all of the rain, but they did their best to get my job on their books in a reasonable time frame. They kept me informed of everything, sent photographs, asked questions, were very communicative, and I will recommend them to everyone I know. Finally, the lanai is dry and secure. Thank YOU, Yama's Roofing!!

Had no issues dealing with Yamas Roofing. The contract was easy to understand and fairly standard. Getting my 30 year old metal roof replaced was a priority and Yamas was able to do it much sooner than I anticipated. They metal roofing was supplied by HPM Custom Metal Roofing which is a good product and they were able to complete the installation in one and one half days! The work looks professionally done and the crew cleaned the job site before leaving. Workers and management were courteous and professional.

Yama’s Roofing went Above & Beyond my expectations. I was referred to them by my neighbor, as they are #1 on the Big Island. My Dad owns a plantation home by Hilo & Brian/Kelly did business w/me from the mainland. They saved my Dad’s house & restored it back to its original state. My Dad is the happiest man Alive now! I would give them 10 stars Plus, if I could. Promptness, professionalism, friendliness, quality at an affordable rate & Looks fantastic! I’m So Happy—you cant go wrong;)
