      I spoke to the customer.  She confused Leaf Guard with Leaf Filter.  She meant to give a review/rating for Leaf Filter.  She will amend her complaint with the BBB.  Thank you.

      My problem is a dispute with Leafguard over completed payments. Total due to Leafguard was $8231 (see letter dated January 2023 from Leafguard with total amount due). My credit card was charged for $2743 on 12/10/2021 and $5488 on 12/12/2021 (see attached credit card statement). On Jan 13 2022, Leafguard also cashed a check written 12/9/2021 also for $2743 (see attached checking statement). On the initial day of service 12/9/21 the check written for deposit did not clear and I subsequently paid by credit card the amount of $2743. I contacted Leafguard about the overpayment of $2743 via check since it had been also paid by credit card and they were not willing to refund the amount. I contacted my bank about the overpayment and confirmed the check dated 12/9/2021 was paid to Leafguard on January 13, 2022. My bank opened an investigation and my bank, who is also my credit card issuer, issued me a refund to my credit card in March 2022. I have corresponded with Leafguard General Managers Scott M*******, Michael S***** and Chandler G************ of Leafguard DC on three separate occasions. I have provided bank and credit card statements as requested to show documentation of the complete payments. In January 2023, I have received notice that the account remains unpaid and a notice of involving a collections agency. My last correspondence by email with Leafguard was Oct 18 2022, providing bank and credit card statements for the 2nd time. I was told by Mr. G************ that he was in receipt of my documents and was working to close the matter. He stated he would get back to me, however, he did not confirm via email that this was resolved. I can provide emails if needed.

      Ms. ****** we have researched your
      claim that the final payment of $8231 has been fully paid.
      Our records show A down payment of
      $2743 was collected on 12/09/21 and the balance of $5488 was collected on
      12/11/21
      It appears because the down
      payment was declined at first and then later approved it still appeared as an
      outstanding balance of $2743.
      That has now been corrected in our
      system . Please disregard any future notices of payment due. And we apologize
      for any inconvenience this might have caused.

      On 12/16/2021 I purchased new gutters from Leaf Guard for the amount of $19,383.00. The gutters were installed a week later. During the removal of my existing gutters and leaf guards my first and second row of shingles along with the hips on each of the corners were damage. When I came home after work I saw my 2 year old roof destroyed; I immediately called and sent pictures to Supervisor #1 ******. He came out the following day and agreed that the installers did do the damage. We both agreed the installers should have stopped with the removal of the existing gutters within the first ten feet and notify ****** of the situation. We could have waited for warmer weather, if that's what we needed to do to make the shingles more flexible to work with. ****** requested I get an estimate on repairs, which I did, March 1, 2022, but we both agreed to wait until warmer temperatures before repairs were made to see if any of the shingles would relax and lay down by themselves. By now it's *** and some of the shingles did lay down but most of them were cracked and never did go back to there original shape. So now comes the labor shortage and the company that installed my roof wasn't able to work it in their schedule before the temperature started to cool off so I had to go with another company. The roof was repaired to my satisfaction on Sept. 23 2022. I notified ****** about the repairs being finished and he said he was no longer working in this area and gave me Supervisor # 2 ****. **** pretty much went on defensive side not really understanding my problem. So I ask him if I needed to contact ****** the General Manager to get my problem resolved and he said no because he also didn't work in this area anymore either. On October 26 2022, **** said he would notify his Regional Manager # 1 and he would get in touch with me. Thirty days later, Nov. 21, 2022, I contacted **** again and he apologized and said that, that Regional Manger is no longer with the company and he would forward my complaint to Regional Manager # 2. So here we are 60 days later Jan. 22, 2023 and I'm still waiting on someone to reach out to me to get this problem resolved. All I want is to be reimbursed the $3,600 I spent to have my roof repaired.

      Had 2 very reputable basement specialists from Milwaukee look at a water leak problem in the corner
      of my basement .Between 01/10/2021and 10/13/2023, Have some discoloration in the paneling and dampness in the carpet in the basement corner.
      On the outside of the corner is an underground drain system that extends to the street had leaf guard gutters
      and downspouts put on. t was recommended to me that I have the downspout that is connected to the underground
      drain disconnected because the system is so close to the foundation and is perforated drain tile and is probably clogged so any water that drains from the downspout is more or less seeping straight down into the basement.
      So I call Leaf Guard on approximately 01/12/2023 and ask if I can correct the problem by changing to the above ground with a downspout ext. They say No, they will Void the Warranty they will have someone call me.
      Got a call on 01/16/2023 which was Monday telling me I would get a call letting me know what day
      they would do the work. Well, it was now Friday 01/20/23 at noon no call Office Closes at 5 pm, and no Saturday Hours. So I call and ask the status of my change over I was told I was scheduled for Saturday
      01/21/23 but did no a time would have a tech call me. Imagine THAT NO CALL!!!!! NO SHOW!!!!!
      I NEED IS FIXED BEFORE MORE DAMAGE IS DONE TO MT BASEMENT

      A service call was set for 01/23/23 to disconnect the downspout from the clogged drain tile and to divert it into the yard as asked.

      To Whom It May ******************* ****** project included a boxed gutter conversion.  We subcontracted the carpentry work for the box gutter conversion to ******** Construction.  On November 10th ,2022,the final gutter was installed by Leafguard after the boxed gutter conversion was completed.  On November 16th, 2022, ************** called and let us know that the gutter was overshooting water onto his awning. Speaking with **************, we determined that there was a gap showing through his attic and allowing water in the home.  On November 17th ,2022,we sent ******** Construction back to the home to adjust his work to close the gap to prevent water from moving backwards.  On November 18th,2022, the order was finished and closed with the customer being satisfied with the fix.  On January 5th ,2023, ************** called and let us know he was having water coming in in the same location.  On January 6th,2023, Leafguard dispatched a service to the residence to inspect the problem.  *** service technician took pictures of the issue and documented in notes that he would need to evaluate a solution with the production manager.  On the morning of January 9th, 2023, the customer was contacted to let him know that additional metal flashing would need to be installed to ensure no water makes it back through the problem area.  ******** Construction was contacted, and a rush was put on the service to get them out there tomorrow, January 10th, 2023, to add metal flashing and resolve the issue.  *** customer was again contacted to let them know the course of action and the solution to fix the problem.  We also let the customer know that when the subcontractor gets done with the fix, we would send out a follow up service crew to water test the house to ensure no further leaking.  *** customer was happy with proposed plan of action.

      Gutters are warranted. I am having an issue with the gutters so on Oct 21,2022 I called *************) and requested service. I was told I would get a return call within 24 hrs. On Oct 25,2022 I called again and this time someone returned my call, asked that I text some pictures of the problem areas and set up an appointment for Nov 5, 2022 between 10 and 11 AM. Nov 5th was a no show and I got no response when I called the cell phone. Nov 7th or 8th I repeated the call process, someone called me back and said my Appointment was Nov 14th. (I have the text I was sent stating Nov 5th). Because of a death in the family Nov 14th did not work for me so I was given an appointment for Nov 21 and told they started at 7:30 AM. On the 17th at 8:30 I received a call that they would be here at 1:00 PM, at 2:30 I received a call that they didnt think they had the right address.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      When my Leaf Guard gutters were installed Leaf Guard was represented by ************************ ** but this is no longer true. When I filed my **mplaint with you after 3 failed appointment attempts the ******** **mpany reached out to me and offered their services to address my gutter issues. They showed up a week later and fixed the issue. The email I sent to Gutter Guard was in response to a December 26th email they sent me saying they didnt have my address and **uld I send it to them. My response stated I  first **ntacted Leaf Guard on October 21st, its now December 26th and youre just realizing you dont have my address? The problem has been addressed by another more responsive **mpany.

      By return email I got an out of office until Jan 3rd message.

      My issues with my gutters have been resolved, my issues with Leaf Guard never were. Supposedly I have a lifetime warranty but I just wonder how much I can rely on that.

      We have had leaf Guard do 3 complete do overs because of poor workmanship and 2 partial . The facia wrap is wavy and crooked, The front downspout was added after the salesman said we didn't need it. It has always leaked in the inside corner but has removed. Now the water overflows the gutter by the front porch, inside corner still leaks by the front porch. I cannot get a response since the last redo. I like the idea of the product but it does not look or work as promised. It seems the workers are not trained properly. I don't understand the A+ rating with a 1? review.

      ******* was able to figure out what we needed to do to correct this issue. however the gutter is frozen right now and we need to wait for a warmer day to come out. currently have service scheduled for 12/19 as weather looks a touch warmer that day.

      This issue was identified in September and not addressed properly by a former Manager. The BBB complaint was filed at approximately the same time that new production management got involved. Customer was contacted, service scheduled, and completed 11/7.

      The local General Manager called the customer on 12/1 in response to the ******************** complaint.  He was as surprised that it was still active. He agreed that the issue has been successfully resolved, and was happy.

This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
