Meet Jim Edwards, owner & lead roofer
Horizon is led by its owner, James (Jim) Edwards, a CertainTeed ShingleMaster with more than 25 years in the trade. Jim is on site for every Horizon job, from the first free inspection to the final magnetic nail sweep. Homeowners tell us again and again that what stood out was the straight talk: several options laid out, the price differences explained, and never a roof pushed on them that they did not need. That is exactly how Jim wants it.
Our vision
At Horizon Roofing and Construction we turn your home improvement ideas into reality. Quality, craftsmanship and integrity are values we incorporate into every job, no matter how big or how small. We pride ourselves on creating a weatherized, functional and safe environment inside and outside your home.
Our 5-year guarantee, explained
We stand behind our product and our labor with a 5-year Contractors Workmanship Guarantee, and we think you deserve to know exactly what that means before you sign anything.
What it covers: for five years from completion, if a leak or defect traces back to how we installed your roof, siding, gutters or windows, we come back and make it right at no cost to you. That is the workmanship promise. Your shingles and other products also carry their own manufacturer warranties against material defects, and when a full CertainTeed Integrity Roof System is installed you become eligible for extended manufacturer coverage on top of ours.
What it does not cover: damage from storms, hail, fallen trees or other events (that is what homeowners insurance is for), problems caused by other contractors working on the roof after us, or issues from deferred maintenance. Manufacturer material defects are handled under the manufacturer's warranty rather than the workmanship guarantee.
How to use it: just call Jim at (734) 585-7160 or email jim@horizonroofingconstruction.com. Because we are owner-led and local, you reach the same people who did the work. The full written terms are provided with your estimate and contract.
Our specialties
We have the experience and know-how to provide quality work at an affordable price, and we take pride in our attention to detail. If we discover any unforeseen issues during installation, our expert installers consult with the homeowner directly to address and solve the problem, rather than covering it up. We use only top-quality products and materials for your home, and we back every project with our workmanship guarantee.
