    Complaint Type:
    Service or Repair Issues
    Status:
    Resolved
    Transaction occurred around July 21, 2022, I had called to have screening put on both front & back gutters of my home, the gentleman said he would get me an estimate soon, suddenly he came on July 21, 2022 telling me the price, I questioned him because I did not see an estimate or any other information. He showed me a picture of screening and said it was done a few days ago, I was home all that week & did not see a truck or company vehicle, or any workers here. I had no contract or had not given him permission to go ahead with the work although he quoted about $1400 for the job when he first came. Unfortunately I paid him by check the $1400 which I thought was very high, but because the work had been done I felt I had no choice. Then about less than 3 months had passed, I found a piece of the gutter screening down on the ground underneath the rear gutter area. I made repeated calls to the office to get someone here to repair such, also my landscaper noticed two of the gutter pieces overlapping on an angle. I called the company number on the paid receipt ************ on Wednesday the 19th of October, told ***** would contact me, he did not, I called again on Thursday the 20th was told one of the supervisors would call, he did not, then on Friday the 21st I called again told ****** would get in touch with me, did not hear from him either. My name, address, phone # isn't even on the paper work nor written an estimate. When I paid him he signed , just scribbled across it clean gut, install new scres, pd in full $1400., under Technician: scribbled initials I only wanted them to stand true to their work, fix it. My understanding is that this paperwork is not legal since none of my information is on the top. I feel I was totally overcharged and the job is was not done properly.

    Horrible workmanship. If you want your chimney/roof fixed or serviced with a reliable company, DO NOT call these people. They were supposed to fix the water issue that was occurring at my home, I paid them and a year and a half later the same problem is happening. I have pictures from before the job and pics from when they came back out to look at the job and it looks like they didnt do anything. It looks horrible. The owner didnt even have the decency to get on the phone, some manager spoke on his behalf. Very sarcastic and laughing on the phone. I have a contract that shows what they were supposed to do and they didnt. In my opinion, if you are hired to do a job and got paid, you should do right by your customers. Once again, DO NOT choose this B.S of a company.
