I don't know about you, but if I have to pay just shy of $14,000 in mid May of 2025 to tear off and replace my roof, I want the best qualified roofer who knows he has to reattach the gutters during a roof tear off. I also want my roof to be inspected by the city as required by state law upon completion of the job, and I expect to get the inspection certificate that the job passed. In addition, I expect the business to be respectful when concerns are raised by the homeowner, like the corner where new roofing does not meet up with the dormer, or metal debris in gutters.
This business, instead, informed me DURING A PHONE CALL WITH HIS ENTIRE TEAM PRESENT ON THE CALL they have installed roofs in Rockford for 15 F...ing years and NOT ONCE had a roof inspection. I advised him that actually this was my THIRD ROOF IN 30 years on this house ,and each time a city inspector showed up and left the inspection at my front door or handed it me if I was home.
When I called the city about their claim, the city told me only the roofer could call for an inspection. Within 30 minutes later after I had just come in from hand watering newly planted shrubs beside my driveway for 2 hours,I found a roofing inspection taped to my garage door...not to my house, where the roof job was ACTUALLY done. Finally, after I involved my city council member, the owner sent someone out and discovered that the debris in my gutter was actually the fittings that were never reattached to my gutters. Apparently the CITY INSPECTOR MISSED THAT. So I had unattached gutters! How do you not reattached gutters? And how is it that a true city inspector who inspected your new roof on your HOUSE leave an inspection for house roof on your garage? You decide, does this company sound like it deserves your business? Not this homeowner. read more
