After a bad ice and windstorm in Warrenton, Virginia, Wayne Shorter and his team at Trusted Roof Systems came to the rescue. My yard was covered in huge fallen branches, some as thick as tree trunks, and my neighbor, who was out of town, had the same problem in their yard. It was a mess, but Wayne’s crew showed up quickly, ready to tackle both jobs. They worked nonstop, cutting up the massive branches and clearing away all the debris.
Once they were done, they even inspected my roof to make sure there was no damage. Wayne and his team truly care about their customers. If you’re looking for a trustworthy, hardworking and experienced contractor for roof repairs, roof replacements, or emergency tree removal, I highly recommend Trusted Roof Systems!

I recently referred Wayne to a client who had a 25-year-old roof that needed replacement before their policy could be renewed. But, Wayne’s expertise was a game-changer. His thorough inspection discovered significant storm damage, which changed the entire conversation with the insurance company. He expertly navigated the process, including a joint inspection with the insurer, to prove that the damage was due to the storm, not just age and normal wear. His work saved my client from a massive out-of-pocket expense and paved the way for a fully insured roof replacement. Please call Wayne after any storm and especially when your insurer threatens to cancel your policy if your roof is not replaced.

After a storm event in Catharpin, Virginia and filing a claim that was denied, Wayne was referred by the contractor who installed my roof because of his expertise in how storms impact and damage property.
After reading his reviews, speaking with him, and experiencing his knowledge, I'm confident that I've chosen the right expert to assist me in getting the damage to my roof properly assessed.
I highly recommend to contact Wayne if you have storm damage. I wish I would have called him before calling my insurance company.

My experience with Wayne and RateBreaks Construction was awesome.
I had never met Wayne until two weeks AFTER my roof was replaced. You see, I live in Kansas and my home is in Dumfries, VA. My property manager told me she suspected roof damage and suggested I connect with RateBreaks Construction. That’s what led me to Wayne.
Since I couldn’t be present at the home, I trusted Wayne. And his integrity and professionalism paid off. My insurance company was happy to interact with him and exchanged information freely. And, Wayne fought for those things that were necessary to do the job properly and to code.
Wayne reviewed insurance paperwork and offers and quickly drafted the supplemental proposals to ensure things were done right the first time...and they were always approved by my insurance company. Furthermore, Wayne kept me informed every step of the way and let me make the necessary decisions.
Wayne and the entire RateBreaks crew was responsive, accurate and had my best interest at heart. He told me where he had problems with my insurance company and advised me on law and code. So, when I approached my insurance company I was well-informed and was able to communicate more effectively and accurately.
Bottom line, Wayne ensured the work was done right, to code, and very professionally. Ultimately, I had a terrific experience that produced a completely new roof over my home.

After a terrible wind storm in March of 2018, I contacted Ratebreaks Construction and they came to my rental property within an hour to assess the damages. My tenant was impressed with the fast response. I contacted my insurance company to file a claim. Before finalizing the claim, Ratebreaks Construction secured my rental property and made the necessary arrangements to completely restore my home. Within days my mature tree and its stump was removed and the damage to my roof, soffit and gutters was repaired to my satisfaction. I wholeheartedly suggest that you call Ratebreaks Construction.
