A $30,000 mistake by a roofing company was a blessing for an Edmond, Oklahoma, couple. Deborah and Scott Senner were out of town and received a call from Graco Roofing & Constructions LLC, saying they’d accidentally taken their roof off instead of their neighbors. To apologize, the company replaced the entire roof for free. The pair shared the funny story with Inside Edition Digital’s Andrea Swindall.

Nice to see a company own up to an honest mistake and do the right thing! How refreshing! Well done everyone! 👏😁

I have a free roof story too! We could not get solar panels because a 70-ft tree blocked the sun. But it fell from a microburst of wind, and then we had lots of sun on the roof. We made a call to the solar company that was recommended. They came, they measured, offered an amazing deal, no money up front, we signed. They got to work on the two loans, and once that was done, they discovered that our roof structure was not quite strong enough to handle the weight. SO, instead of cancelling the order, they took off the shingles and sheathing, sistered new lumber to every single rafter, put on new sheathing, new shingles, and then the solar panels. Yeah, they're out of business now. 🤷‍♀

The owner of the roofing company is a upstanding man who fixed his mistake. That is a best review I could think of. I would hire that company in a heartbeat

For every one like this, we always see one of, "they showed up, they f**ked up the address, they f**ked up half our roof, they promptly f**ked off and would not return our phone calls or emails."

That's a great roofing company. Owned up to the mistake. Cool

I too had the same problem. I live in a duplex. My neighbor passed away and the realtor sent for new rooftop, contractors came and replaced the whole roof on my side, and I notified them to stop. I ended up with a new rooftop at no cost 😊

A bad mistake turned into a nice ad campaign, and for the amount of reach it generated it’s actually an amazing deal for them.

Glad the company fixed the Mistake, I’ve seen videos of where other companies make these same mistakes and then want to get payed or sue the victims to get leans on the victim’s homes

The blunder actually gives that business so much good publicity. It's so nice to see a business correct a mistake, with no hassles.

They knew those homeowners would've been floored if they came home without a roof. Good on them for replacing it for free and happy it gave the roofing company some funny and good marketing.

A wealthy couple gets a new roof for their beautiful multi-million dollar house, AND saves $3,500 a year on top of it. It always warms my heart to see people who aren't struggling catch breaks they don't need.

@DIDYOUSEETHAT172 5 ай бұрын

As a a former contractor I can say that is a first. You have to take what life hands you and run with it. It goes without saying the company did the right thing with no quibbles, or delays.

@tylermacmorris1361 Ай бұрын

The company did right by them, and they got a free roof. That company deserves more work.

To Graco Roofing & Constructions LLC...thank you for being such an honorable company!

@ryanschaff2507 Ай бұрын

Wow, I really thought this story was going to be about another construction company messing up and then charging the victims of their mistake for the work they have done and suing them in court over it. It was a pleasant surprise to see there is still good honorable companies out there! Kudos to them!
