DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY...not solvent and sounds like they perform zero due diligence on subcontractors they use.
I've fully paid for roof, soffit, and fascia on time 50% up front and 50% when the final invoice came through. Job was completed in October 2017 and payment from me sent...in November 2017 I received a notice of potential lien from a subcontractor they used. No information about this subcontractor nor their right to place a lien on my property was presented at any point in working with Avondale.
After talking to Avondale they admitted they didn't pay the subcontractor and that they didn't have any money. Their plan was to wait until warmer weather so that newer jobs could pay off the bill from the sub they used on my property -- AWFUL ponzi scheme like business model.
Understandably the subcontractor did end up filing a lien on my property. I've needed to contact legal help to help remove the lien that was placed.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Very poor customer service and follow up. After initial contacting me and saying they would take a commercial job. When I indicated we would like to move forward with the job they gave me the run around about renting equipment and pricing material to start the job the upcoming week. I never heard from them again. Instead of just saying they didn't want the job they just did and said nothing.

Such a great company! They were so easy to work with, listened to my needs, and gave me a great price. I would recommend them to any friend with roofing needs!

Really unfortunate here. I live in Northbrook - basically in their backyard. I own a 1200 sq ft townhouse and needed my gutters replaced. Avondale came to me through a friend that used their services about 5 years ago. I'm guessing something was different back then.
I had Leo, their contractor, come out to the house and I had an estimate in hand on the 20th. So far, everything was going well. Leo was cordial, professional and very polite. His estimates were a bit higher than I was expecting based on conversations I had with other contractors - but because they were recommended to me, I was willing to pay a bit extra for good service.
I was wrong.
After two weeks - I emailed Leo and asked what was going on? He told me that his main office would get in contact with me. A couple of days later - Kathy from their office gave me a call, and said they were completely booked up and that I would have to wait. When I spoke with Leo in October - I did say that the work was pressing and that I really needed it done. However, as Kathy described it - The season was getting the better of them and they were swamped. I was assured that I would get a call back from Kathy in a week to schedule. OK...
After two more weeks and no communication (almost a month and this point) - I had the time to shop around, quite a bit, and get competitive quotes. Each of the quotes coming back to me were AT LEAST $125 less than what Avondale quoted me. Still no call back from Avondale.
After a full month - I called back and again spoke to Kathy. She was apologetic, but that still doesn't excuse the fact that there was zero communication letting me know that there were STILL NINE people ahead of me - and that they weren't even close to scheduling me. I was a bit frustrated with the lack of communication and said I was still willing to do business with them if they would come down on price a bit.
I got in contact with Avondale again today and they said their price is firm. So pay a premium for crappy service? I said no thanks, wished them luck with their business and will be moving on with their competitors. I will also be having a chat with my friend who recommended Avondale to me.
Be cautious if you decide to work with them.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jeff S.Chicago, IL1510Aug 19, 2016
Really great Company. Needed to replace roof due to high winds, and storms. Tom came out and checked the roof, very nice guy. Our Insurance company covered most of the cost, but we would have had to still pay a difference. Tom worked it out so that we only ended up paying the deductible. He Really helped us throughout the job. Also, old roof removed, new roof added, all garbage taken care of, and everything swept up & left clean in 1 Day! By 3 pm they were gone.
GREAT JOB GUYS!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Karen C.Glenview, IL0131Nov 4, 2013
We had Avondale completely replace the roof of our 1925 bungalow about 13 years ago. It was a great experience--no complaints. Sadly I think they've met the fate of many third generation family owned businesses.
We need to replace the roof of our detached garage and repair a leak on the roof of our house. Chris, whose business card reads "future owner" came to give us an estimate. Based on our previous experience with this company, if the estimate was affordable, we'd have had them do the work without seeking other estimates.
That was about four weeks ago. Two weeks in we asked when we could expect an estimate. We were told the next day. We're still waiting. I picked up my iPad to look for other options but stopped to share my disappointment.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Samantha I.Chicago, IL12350Apr 5, 2018

Great Company,
I called for and scheduled an estimate, they had to re-schedule for a future date but called ahead, which was fine.
I met Tom he explained all my options to repair a flat roof in the back of a rental house i own. I then realized it made
sense to have him quote me the entire roof which was in really bad shape. the combine quote was $8000.00.
I had gotten other quotes for the same house in the past for 10 to 12 thousand but never wanted to spend the money on
the rental, so i knew it was a fair price. I called them with a credit card number and they came out two days later
and completed the work in one day. VERY clean, no nails left behind.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Anna K.Northbrook, IL030Aug 29, 2019
They are extremely nice! The crew was speaking Polish,Spanish and English everyone in my household speaks Polish so it was really nice to know my mom will be able to communicate with them. I loved their work and they do it very fast and professionally! Loved it !
