Beware! Blue Mountain Roofing was very attentive - until I wrote that final check.
I did my due diligence and got estimates from three roofing companies that had decent reviews. They all had the same shingle warranty and guarantee on their work and because Blue Mountain was slightly less expensive, I chose them. Unfortunately, I was going out of town the very day they completed my roof so I had only a cursory look at my new roof and the shingles were the right color and seemed to look OK. Upon returning home, I realized that the roof turbines were making a deafening racket when the wind picked up. I got up on my roof and realized that the turbines had been replaced very askew which of course meant they did not spin evenly if at all. While up on the roof, I also noticed that the electrical outlet box next to my cooler was just lying there not securely attached to the roof. Also, when they put the cooler back in place, the water sources were not tightened and in a matter of only a few weeks, I had calcification already built up on my new brown shingles.
I called the gentleman I had dealt with from the beginning and left a short voicemail explaining that I had some concerns. That phone call was never returned. After a few days, I called again and actually spoke to the man who'd overseen my project. He assured me that someone would come out to take a look at the problems. That day and several more passed and no one showed up nor did I receive a phone call with an explanation. Almost five weeks passed along with more phone calls where I was assured they'd send someone out - and I was given specific days and times. Again nothing. I ended up giving up three days waiting on them. Eventually a guy I had never seen before did show up. He looked at the obviously crooked turbines and told me I needed new turbines and if I bought them, they'd put them on. Initially they wanted to use the old turbine bases so that they didn't have to lift up the newly installed shingles. That made no sense as it was the bases that were crooked. Knowing that the turbines had been up there quite a long time (without any problem I might add), I took them up on their "deal". I called to tell them that I had purchased the new turbines and was anxious to get the work done. Again nothing. Until I sent a text outlining the problems - not only with some of the hastily done work but with my disappointment regarding their lack of response to these problems. Amazingly enough, after almost five weeks, a couple of roofers showed up the very next morning. I was pleased to see them take away my old turbines with the old bases attached. I'm sorry they had to remove shingles and replace them but that would not have happened had the work been done properly from the get go. I asked that the new turbines not be painted as they had done the first time because I was buying brown turbines. Yes, the new turbines are up there though not parallel to the ground as they should be and it looks as though they've been painted. The original man who I contracted with showed up before that work was finished and told me that there was no way the electrical box could be reattached to the roof and that I'd need to hire an electrician to update the box. Huh?? But I quickly found someone to take a look at that box and in a matter of minutes, it was secured to the roof. And I was told that it's just an electrical outlet box and updating was completely unnecessary. The issue of the calcification was NOT addressed at all.
Again, this whole complaint process took almost five weeks and I am not even happy with the outcome. However, I am so done with this company and will not call them for further repairs as I don't want to subject myself to anymore of their excuses or shoddy work.
I'm not normally a negative review writer. I like to save my reviews for when I have something exceptional to say about a company I've done business with. But this was all so unacceptable - possibly because I'm a woman who put her faith in the supposed experts or because they knew they would not be getting any more money out of me even if the job was not up to par. If I sound angry, I am. Roofs aren't cheap. This has been a terrible experience and I would suggest you look at other roofing companies even if their estimates are a little higher. After all of this, I'm a bit skeptical about the quality of the actual roof job. I hope I don't have additional disappointments down the road. Thank you. read more
