I am one of the owners of Aspect Roofing and am only posting this as a response to Alis Smbatyan. Over 1200 clients in 4 years and only one complaint. No matter how hard we try, we just can't please everyone. This is unfortunately one of those situations. Please see my response below. Thanks
First allow me to address her complaints in order.
Alis has gone behind our backs from day one trying to get Travelers to pay more than market value so she can keep the extra money for herself and do other repairs on her home. Insurance pays to bring the home back to pre-storm damage, not to "fix up" the house from years of neglect as was explained from the very beginning. Her response was "I pay my premiums and I can do what I want with the money" This is not correct, this is insurance fraud. She had our company agree to do all the work, send in an invoice once it was complete, and now she is going back for more money from Traveler's to "fix up her house". The work has been completed for over 90 days and we are just now hearing from her that she wants money refunded.
With regards to the wrong color, Alis chose Autumn Brown. We have a signed contract showing as such. After removing her entire roof and shingling the left quarter of her house she said she didn't like the color, it was too red. We told her during the color selection process that when the sun hits it, it really brings out the red. She stated, "oh, that's ok". So instead of holding her to her own signed contract we removed over $700 worth of shingles, called our supply house and had them deliver a totally different color, and installed those. Our company paid over $1400 to fix Alis's mistake. At which no time since then has she offered to pay for her mistake.
I have no idea what she is talking about with regards to the "supplement" The only time we reordered any shingles was to fix her color selection.
4 days is incorrect. We would have been done in one had Alis selected the correct color. Instead we secured her home and finished the very next day, once the shingles arrived.
Insurance paid to remove and replace the attic fans, which we did. You need to be a licensed electrician in the state of Texas to do this type of work. We are not able to perform this work. However, Alis told us not to worry because her AC man would take care of it when he installed the new unit. Alis hired him to do the work and we paid him. Alsi told us everything was ok, go ahead and pay him. After we paid him, she noticed that he didn't hook up the fans as requested. Again this is a contractor Alsi chose, not us.
We replaced one 3" x 3" piece of pool tile as she requested. Her pool tile and pool is falling apart. The tiles she is talking about are tiles that insurance didn't pay for, but she wants done "since we are doing the other one" That's like walking in to a body shop to have your hood painted and saying well since your doing the hood, go ahead and do the whole car.
The quote for the AC, was dollar for dollar the quote HER AC guy gave me. No idea what she is talking about here.
She also refused any payment and without my knowledge had one of our crew go in and repair damaged baseboards in her home and in to that addition had that same person paint her exterior fascia boards. She told them we said it was ok, an obvious lie to take advantage of one of our workers and once again get work done on her poorly maintained home.
With regards to stealing the money, it is laughable. First, we can't request anything from any insurance company to be made out to us, we aren't on their policy. Alis wrote us a personal check once all the work was completed and she was 100% satisfied. We took NO MONEY up front, ALL of the money was paid after the work was done. Alis has chosen to try and get more money from Travelers by hiring an independent adjuster, thus taking money that would be rightfully ours as stated in our contract. Not sure what she means by washing and staining the roof, that's not something we've ever done. Nor would we ever agree to take a personal check and give you money back. We performed all work we were contracted to perform including baseboards and fascia boards that an employee was tricked in to doing by Alis .
At this time Alis still hasn't paid us the $2400 she still owes us for work performed and is asking us to give more money back. We have written this off as bad debt and part of doing business. If you noticed the work contracted was for $11,500 and she has issues with the $494 that she's trying to pocket for work performed. This from someone who has spent the last 90 days trying to get money from Traveler's and Aspect for herself. All of the work was completed on time, again the only hiccup we had was when she chose the wrong color and we had to stop down for a day to get the "new" color.
We have over 1200 happy clients and 1 that will do anything she can to ruin our companies name just to put a few dollars in her pocket that isn't rightfully hers. read more
