I worked for this company and I can tell you firsthand that it is a very shady practice and their…read moremethods of acquiring clients are very, VERY predatory. The company downloads thousands on thousands of phone numbers from an online database and sends unsolicited calls to anybody they can early as 8 AM (even calling businesses and renters on holidays) in order to rope in clients by offering a special free estimate (which is standard practice). If you do choose to accept the free estimate, they will try to overcharge and upsell you on any sort of home remodeling projects you're considering due to the small size of the company. From a worker's point of view, the company will hide information on the jobs you confirm and will threaten your job security once a week if you do not get 2 potential jobs per day. This unfortunately leads to the harassment of many Houston citizens through desperate callbacks for months on end and even giving misleading information about the company's status with the Better Business Bureau. There are cockroaches and bugs living throughout their showroom and the owner, contractors, and most of upper management do not speak English as well. All in all, this company is very unorganized yet uncomfortably persistent when it comes to finding clients and will often overcharge clients who are in desperate need remodeling and do not have time or resources to find a second opinion. If you do come in contact with them or happen to receive an unsolicited call, I strongly suggest finding another contractor to save you from a headache/wasting your time. I would even make sure to block the number because they will not stop calling if you don't.

This review is to let everyone know about my positive experience that I had with Rosales Fence…read morecompany. My home had a 13 year old fence that was provided by the home builder. Some of the original 4 x 4 posts had snapped off at the base, and I had some panels completely collapsed. I needed to replace the entire fence. I saw workers from Rosales Fence working (on the weekend) on another property within our subdivision, in addition to some other completed fence jobs. I walked up the crew to talk with them while they were on their lunch to ask some questions. They were in the middle part of the job - The old fence had been removed, and the new posts were just going in. What I was encouraged by was the fact that they physically removed to old concrete anchors the posts had been sitting in, and installed fresh posts with fresh cement. Another thing that caught my eye was where the gates went - they used 4 x 6 posts, instead of another 4 x 4. Another thing that I really liked was that I saw Welding gear and a metal frame that had been primer zinc coated. My question to them was "How much extra for having a metal frame door?" and their answer was "Nothing - we do that for every fence job" That was really cool to hear. So I called them to get an estimate. I got a very prompt call back from Felix. He was able to come over the same day to give me an estimate. This is good news to hear, since we work during the week, and only have the weekends to get projects done. I asked him to price out for both Pine and for Cedar. They were also able to provide me with a wider 8 foot gate, so that I had the option to back a trailer into a back yard. He also told me what the process would entail - typically a 2 day turnaround, with the first day for demolition and installing new posts, and second day for boarding; the same crew would do the whole job from start to finish; they would call 811 for powerlines and cable/phone; they would remove ALL of the old fencing and haul it away; install a rot board at the bottom; install 3 horizontal boards for nailing (but they're ringed coated nails) the fence boards in. I asked felix about portable fencing for in between demo and install (we have dogs that need to go outside), and he said that they will install portable orange hurricane fencing before they leave for the day. I also told him I had an in-ground sprinkler system, so I was worried about the crew damaging a line when installing the new fence. Felix told me he would walk through the final job with me, to ensure all the heads were working fine. (Full disclosure - the small print at the bottom of the estimate states that Rosales fence not responsible for damage to sprinkler heads, but Felix told me up front that he would make things right if the heads or lines were broken. He wants to put his customers at ease.) Now - was this the least expensive price quote I got for the same job from other vendors - No, it was not. But when I looked at the quality of their work and the comfort I felt for their entire procedure that they would do the best job for me. When I signed the contract; I had to wait about 8 days before they could start. Now, during this time, I was figuring that 811 would come out and mark all the lines. After not seeing any flags or paint on the ground, I called the office to let them know that 811 still had not come out. In addition to 811, I went ahead and marked all of my sprinkler heads with a flag so their crew would know where the heads were located. Now 811 didn't come out until the morning of the 1st day. If they had not had come out, I was going to stop the crew from working until 811 had marked the property. They did everything they said they would do - done in 2 days (it was actually 3 days because there was a full day of rain in between demo and install - can't blame them for weather, and I wouldn't have wanted them making a muddy mess); hauled away ALL of the old fence installed a great looking cedar fence; gave me a wider gate, and when Felix came by for the close-out walk through, none of my sprinkler heads were damaged. The only slight problem we had was that some concrete pooled over the form that blocked the head. I carefully chipped away part of the concrete, and the head popped straight up. At the end of the day - I was very pleased with using Rosales Fence for my new fence. I have attached some photos of the fence they installed so that you can see their handiwork. I would recommend them for your fence job. The review should be for 4 and 1/2 stars (couldn't give them 5 stars) because of the 811 issue.

Hello Bill,…read more I wanted to congratulate you on the wonderful job you did to replace my roof. The look of the finished product is great. What I liked was how friendly, competent and responsible your team was in getting the job done. They cleaned up each day without destroying any plants or shrubs. All stuff was put away at the end of the day. Your quote was what we paid and you took the time to explain what was needed and why. I will highly recommend you to all my neighbors and friends.

Al was…read morevery responsive while setting up the consultation and service but has since then disappeared. I had to call from a second (work cell) in order to get a hold of him and of course he has since then ceased to answer that number. My issues are as follows: 1-The final invoice exceeded the quote considerably (see photos). I was quoted $2900 and told they might find 'a few things once we get on the ladder that might cost a few hundred more dollars.' The final invoice was $3500. That's a 20% increase from the original estimate. And they did not even fix/find everything, see item 2. 2-They did not find/fix everything. While on my own ladder today doing some yard work I noticed a large crack that Al and his team either failed to find and fix or found and chose to ignore to cut corners/save money. 3-They did not perform all services quoted. The quote included the application of solar seal caulking to areas of my balconies that was never performed. 4-As mentioned, when I reached out to Al about getting me an updated invoice and alleged 5 year warranty information, he disappeared. When I finally called him on a secondary line he told me his secretary was on maternity leave and could get me the documents when he returned. She allegedly returned to work 8/23. I am writing this review as of 9/4. I will be reaching out to the Better Business Bureau in hopes that others will not have a similar experience.

Rude tone, acted like I was wasting his time with just a repair. EDIT - owner called me up just a couple minutes ago, chewing me out because he did not like his review. Should add this guy has a bad temper. Dropped him from 2 stars to 1 because of the tantrum he threw. EDIT 2 - I see the response. Talk about a bitter response. First off, EVERYTHING I wrote was completely true. Maybe don't insult people the next time you are having a bad day. Second, I was clear in my initial search that I needed a SMALL job. If you don't do small jobs, just don't reply as if you do. Third, both phone calls with you were rude and nasty on YOUR end, sorry I am not obligated to let you insult me just because you feel like it. Maybe you just had a bad day, but you were rude and nasty. It's not smart to expect people to just take that because you feel like being a bully.

HIGHLY recommend…read more Let me start by saying that this experience has been nothing but fantastic since the very beginning. My husband and I wanted to remodel our shower and replace the tile in our (tiny) master bathroom, and we were really anxious about finding a good, reputable contractor that wasn't going to price us through the roof. We came across Lotus's Yelp reviews and were really blown away by the reviews and the pictures. I contacted Cindy, and she responded within minutes and was out at our house within 48 hours to give us a quote. Cindy has been exceptional with communication on all fronts. We always knew who would be in our house, and we always had a good time frame on everything. We are so impressed with everything that Lotus brought to the table... competitive pricing, a compassionate & communicative PM/Owner, extremely kind workers (Hugo and Jose are awesome!!) and a timeline that couldn't have been beat. Thank you for everything, Cindy! We'll be calling you with any other future projects.

From the beginning, Cindy was communicative and always quick to respond to any questions we had. Our scope of work involved moving walls, and a complete gut of our kitchen, living areas and dining room. I have to admit that when Cindy estimated a 3 month turnaround (including inspections) we had our doubts. She proved us wrong - our project was complete and ready for us to move in two weeks early! We were very impressed with all of the subcontractors and the work done. Our home was treated with care the entire time. We were pleasantly surprised at how clean our house was kept, even during demo! During each phase, Cindy and Jose guided these first time renovators through each decision, and came up with creative solutions when the unexpected came up. Any issues were quickly resolved, even when it was simply us changing our minds. The only cost increases we encountered were items that we decided to add. They say that in construction you can choose two - on budget, on time, or good quality. Lotus delivered all three! We highly recommend Lotus for your next project!
