Lion Roofing Company

Lion Roofing Company handles roofing work around Corpus Christi. The business is locally owned and operated out of Rockport Fulton where it is registered with the city and carries insurance. Eric Nesmith runs the day to day operations and the crew installs shingles, corrugated metal roofing, flat roofs and similar jobs. They focus on both new work and repairs that reach down to the decking when needed.

Customers call for everything from small spot fixes after gutters come down to full tear offs that include new flashing, chimney rebuilds and added pitch to move water. Eric shows up for same day estimates on weekends, rips out damaged sections, replaces bad wood and flashing, then finishes with clean shingles or metal. Reviewers mention Richard working alongside him on some jobs and note that the crew leaves the site clean with photos of the finished areas. One customer had ridge cap damage from a raccoon and hurricane leftovers fixed the next day after the estimate.

They answer calls quickly, explain each step, keep sites tidy and stick to the quoted price. Eric communicates by phone and email even for out of state owners and handles payment arrangements with neighbors when needed. The shop stays open Monday through Friday from eight to six and Saturday from nine to four but closes on Sunday. Work stays local to the Rockport and Corpus Christi area with fast turnaround on both estimates and the actual roofing.

Most reviews praise fair pricing, quick schedules and solid results though one reviewer called the work unreliable and unfinished after payment. Topics that come up often include honest quotes, steady pace and crews that follow through. DIRT Score 4.1 from 25 reviews on Finds.

“I highly recommend... I called Lion Roofing because it is local. I spoke with Eric Nesmith who came out, inspected the damage, gave me a fair quote, and got me scheduled. Wowser... No band-aid repair here. He ripped it down to the boards, tore out the flashing, replaced all the bad stuff, improved the design with a baby roof pitch thingy to redirect for the rain, rebuilt the chimney, re-shingled, and repainted all the new wood on the chimney. IT LOOKS FABULOUS! Nice young man. Very polite. A very pleasant experience. I can't say enough nice things about the man, the company, and the repair. Thanks, Eric! ~ Kelly Herzog, Rockport local.”

“Repeat Customer Here! This was the second project Lion Roofing worked on for us, top notch guys! Can't ask for a nicer guy in Eric, and he is a work horse. Focusing on getting the job done on time, within budget, all while delivering a quality product.”

“We had a small roofing project and needed someone local. We contacted Eric on Saturday, he came out same day to estimate the job, gave us a very reasonable price, and the work was done the following Tuesday. We were amazed how fast, efficient, and professional they were. Eric and Richard were very kind and respectful and have great work ethics. The roof looks awesome. We definitely would recommend them.”

“Eric is a great man to do business with. I got other bids almost twice of what he charged. He was quick, professional, reliable and done quality work at an affordable price. He went out of his way to make sure I knew what was going on each step of the process. If you are looking for someone to do your roof call Eric at Lions you will not be disappointed.”

“Lion Roofing was absolutely amazing! Eric was very reasonably priced, punctual, explained the process, left the site very clean, and provided pictures to show the finished repair site. Eric's professionalism was outstanding and greatly appreciated!!”

“Lion Roofing (Eric Nesmith) did a fantastic five-star job! We will recommend Eric to all our neighbors or to anyone who needs roof work. I can't imagine anyone doing a better job or working harder than him. :-)”

“Could not have done a better job on my roof. Clean. Fast. Friendly. Eric's dad provided free entertainment on demand. They didn't even charge me extra for the entertainment :) Bonus!! I will definitely call Lion Roofing again. Thank you Eric”

“Great company, Eric came over right away to fix a couple bad spots we found after we took off the gutters when we were having house painted. He was fast, did great job and would definitely use him again.”

“We hired Eric to put gutters in our vacation home in Rockport. We had a really easy time dealing with him by phone and email since we live in another state. He is hard working and a man of his word. He picked up the gutters from Mueller in Corpus and did call us when there was an issue with the trailer. He let us know the trailer that he was going to have to rent was going to take a day or two since it was being fixed. We had no problem with that .It was ready in a day or two and he was off and running. He picked everything up delivered it and got the job done in a day. He was willing to also work with a neighbor of ours to get payment which arrived just in time. We can't say enough . He is an honest motivated hard worker and we would highly recommend him.”

“These guys were great. Every step of the job went exactly as I'd hoped. From the estimate to the clean up, Eric and his crew were punctual, professional, and very hard working. We are in the process of building an addition to the house and it is a no brainer to choose them to do that roof as well.”

“Eric was more than professional and so easy to work with. He does a fantastic job and is very reliable. We would 100% recommend him to anyone and use him again in the future.”
