I'm visiting Illinois from California, my mothers handyman thought she needed a new roof and…read morerecommended his buddy's. She asked me to help her get some other estimates because the one she received was extremely high. She had an advertisement card from DGB roofing construction Inc. which was local to Crystal Lake and to me a perk. So I called and made an appointment and they were very communicative. Because my mother's home is very difficult to locate they called me a couple times to find us and they were even able to come a day earlier which was great for me having come from out of state and other obligations I needed to manage. Now though, we were expecting to get an estimate my mother was so relieved and felt blessed by the adjuster named Nabil. He was so very honest, thoughtful and helpful and with all the other worries I have about an elderly parent; this gave me peace at heart. He was up on the roof with his equipment & I was also looking at the roof thinking it was looking pretty good. But while Nabil was doing his inspection from the roof and I was on the ground he explained how well the valleys were built, there were top notch vents and the flanges around the chimney stack were also very good quality. He told me it was a 30 year shingle and had probably had been put in about 15 years ago. I am so very grateful that there are still contractors out there with some ethics. Because it would be very, very easy to take advantage of an 80-year-old woman in this day and age. As the other company would have done and the second contractor I had contacted who wasn't going to come and look at the roof he was going to do it via satellite. No thanks! These are the reasons I am giving this company such a high rating even though we did not schedule a roofing project. If you think you need a new roof, I would recommend contacting DGB roofing and construction Inc. and especially to ask for Nabil. The inspection was free as well for my mother. Thank you again so much to Nabil! Keep him on DGB!

Mike at Copley came to inspect my garage roof leaking from solar panel installation. Solar company…read morehas originally denied responsibility. Mike then wrote a full report for me, with pictures, to submit. Solar company rep came out, Mike even took the time to come and meet him at the same time. Solar company admitted fault and will now repair my roof at no charge to me. Mike didn't even get the job, which I'm a little saddened by, because the solar company is going to do it, but his professionalism and going above and beyond saved me about $8k and at a time when I'm trying to sell my house. Thank you Mike. I am moving out of state but I have several friends in this area and I will only and always recommend your company.

They installed a roof on the new porch and although Charlie said he could match the new roof with…read morethe existing roof, they left a large obvious hump instead of a smooth transition. We also had them put gutters up in front and on our pole barn. The front gutters seemed to be installed correctly but the pole barn gutters were installed improperly and fell to the ground with the first snow storm. We asked Charlie to fix/reinstall the gutters since his employees did not properly secure it. Charlie stated he would fix it so as installed properly. Then we received a contract to pay for wood to install the gutters and were told he would not fix it unless we signed the blank estimate. There wasn't an amount on it, so we told him we wanted to know the extra charge (we didn't feel we should have been charged anything, but would be willing to pay for extra material if that's what we needed). Charlie then stated he needed to charge for more labor costs and materials, and said he has to "take care of his boys" and said he would charge us to reinstall it properly (as if it was a new project). He refused to fix the issue his employees caused and now we're out the money we originally paid to have gutters put up and have to pay someone else to do the job correctly. We do not recommend them and wish we'd read the Yelp reviews when the contractor (who built the porch) recommended Charlie Copely.

BEWARE If you have storm damage and want a company that won't fight for you but will put everything…read morethey have into fighting AGAINST you... well then this is the company. I thought because they were local and I knew the owner they would be a fair company... boy was I wrong. I hired them because my window screens were badly torn, my trim on house was all knicked up due to hail. Some shingles also blew off the roof. I didn't even know if my roof was damaged at the time. They said they would handle everything and even deal with insurance so I wouldn't have to. The deal was they do all the work and I sign all the checks over to them. It was simple...so I thought. I didn't want nor had the time to be dealing with all this. Their contract says they never ask for money from homeowner that it all comes from insurance, yet they billed me for MORE than insurance even gave and that's even after they refused to fix things that were damaged and covered because it wouldn't be "profitable for them". So left me with no $ to repair those items they skipped out of doing. wound up paying over $31,000 and they still wanted approz $8000 more and my screens, deck and house trim were still unrepaired..they wanted the $ allotted for work they didn't do! Provided a grossly inflated bill (no sworn statements)that was blatantly wrong and they refused to fix....until the morning of court that is (you read that right). Not only were they shady, but refused to providing me with the required notarized sworn statements when we requested. Even admitted in arbitration that they do not give till AFTER the bill is paid. BY law they ARE MANDATED to provide yet wouldn't AND yet still sued us. Of course, why wouldn't they because if you read their contract and very fine print on the back, their warranty is VOID if they take you to court.... so it's only in their best interest to bring you there. They don't even try to fix their mistakes-just intimidate and demand full payment. They even sent someone to my home who harassed and tried to intimidate me. They were so unprofessional with my insurance rep. We won in arbitration (for the most part) but still they refused the ruling and pushed to court. They didn't even show or give me a chance to cross examine them since I obliterated them in arbitration neither my contractor nor the manager they sent to collect a wrong bill even showed up to testify... Hmmm. Waiting on a ruling from the judge as he took it on advisement but don't understand how he can even consider ruling for them under the circumstances. Stay away from this company at all costs is my advice. If you don't question them it should go fine, but if you call them out on mistakes... watch out!

Our building needed roof repairs and we are incredibly grateful for the work of Ernie and his team…read more He was very responsive and worked with our budget after conducting a free estimate. He told us that other companies would try to sell us a full replacement but he assured us that he could extend our old roof's life with repairs and maintenance. He was right! Other companies went straight to offering a replacement for many times the price of what Ernie was able to do. Once the work was done Ernie stood by his warranty. There was a small area that needed follow-up work, and he came back and addressed it promptly and free of charge. The whole time he was friendly, professional, and responsive. We are definitely going to have him do our inspections moving forward!

Great product that works just like they say…read more I was really skeptical of this gutter product. One would think that in a heavy rain that the water would just flow over. But after watching it like an expectant father, several times, over the past 2 months, I can say the water flows right into the front opening. And believe it or not, the gutter shutters actually look better than my old gutters. To top it off, the whole process was pretty stress free. I would say probably because everyone I talked to from the company was so friendly. I know there are lots of leaf blocking gutter products out there, but in my opinion, this one is the most impressive.

I just had the entire exterior of my home remodeled, roof, siding, windows, and gutters. For my…read morenew gutters I choose to go with the gutter shutter gutter guards. Honestly, I have no idea about these things. What I do know is I live in an area that has lots of trees. I clean my gutters on the front of my house once or twice a year, which is about 5 times less than I should be doing it . The back of my house is three stories up, I don't touch them, ever, for obvious reasons! Over the years my white gutters had basically turned black and stripped. I would guess from clogging and overflowing. So when it came time to do the exterior project on my house, I wanted to see if leaf guard gutters made sense. I got quotes on gutters like I had on the house and on the covered typed. I will say the covered ones are significantly more expensive. I would say some where around 2-3 times the price. But I guess it makes sense considering more material is needed and most of the companies put a pretty strong guarantee that your gutters won't clog. Plus as far as professionalism goes, the leaf guard gutter companies were significantly better. I got 2 quotes for standard gutters (tried to get three but 3 of the companies I called didn't answer there phone and never called back). The guys that did show up looked like they had just gotten done putting up some gutters. Which is fine, but didn't give me any confidence or trust when it came to giving them money or trusting that they would actually warranty their work. Plus I couldn't find any info about either one of them online...neither are on yelp. The covered gutter companies were much better. Three out of 4 actually had a humans that answered the phone and the 4th one (who I decided to not have come out) actually called me back. I found information on the 3 that I had come out online, and they were all listed with yelp. Also when the representatives from the companies came out you could tell these were sales guys and not the installers. Again I may be wrong to think this way, but I just feel better dealing with a professional organization and not some guy working out of his garage. I ultimately decided to spend the extra money for the leaf gutters and I ultimately decided to go with The Gutter Shutter product. I would say all of the companies had decent online reputations, all of the sales people were professional and showed up on time and were courteous, and all of the prices were within a few hundred bucks of each other. What made me choose this company was the product itself. It appeared to be the strongest out of the three that I saw. The other covered product seemed flimsy and the other was a standard gutter with a screen over it. I just can't see how a screen won't clog, no matter how small the openings are. I don't know, I could be wrong. Anyways I signed a contract with Gutter Shutter and away we went. It was probably 2 months before the gutters where installed because that was the last thing that got done on my house after the roof and siding. I want to thank Gutter Shutter for working with me. I had to change my install date 3 times because of the scheduling of the other work. The staff at Gutter Shutter was very helpful and worked with me during the changes with no problem. When the time finally came, I can say the installation went perfectly (mostly because I was at work when it happened..lol). When I did get home the guys were just finishing up packing up their truck. I did a walk around with the installers to make sure their clean up was good and to make sure they did everything they were supposed to. The majority of my 5 star rating is based on the installation crew. They did an excellent job of cleaning up, the new gutters looked great, everything was straight and done well, and the guys were very courteous during the walk around even though I could tell they were tired and just wanted to go home. Well done Gutter Shutter... definitely give those guys a raise! So far so good, the gutter looks really good, but the real test was...do they work?? With these covered gutters the water is supposed to follow the solid top part and flow into the gutter part. In the back of mind I wasn't sure that the water would actually wrap around and go inside. I can say without a doubt it works! Thank God! It has rained 3 times since the gutters were installed and the water goes right in. The one time it was raining pretty hard and it was handling it just fine. If you are considering investing in leaf guard gutters, I recommend checking out Gutter Shutter. I had a very pleasant (no problems) experience with them, the install crew that did my house was great, and their product looks great and works as advertised.
