Since then the roof has held up great! Last week I started seeing a leak on the outside of my house. I called them up and the owner sent someone out the same day just to rule anything out. When they came out we both agreed that it didn't look like there was anything wrong with the roof, but that didn't stop them for doing their best to stop it from leaking they added some caulking around some holes in the stucco and masonry and fixed up some of the flashing near the leak. After that, it was still leaking, but Brad, the owner, was kind enough to come out again, even though it had NOTHING to do with the roof just to double-check on me and make sure that I was doing well. At the end of the day, they took off a side gutter and found a hole in the wall that the builders had left from when the house was built. Again, STILL not roof related, but they treated me like family and helped me as if it were and fixed it up for me. Literally cannot say enough good things about WDR! I've never found a company that is this helpful or this responsive.

    TLDR: Though we had no issue with the quality of Austin Flood & Fire's work, we had multiple…read moreegregious billing issues, to the point that it's difficult to believe they weren't intentionally trying to overcharge us. 1. Austin Flood & Fire responded to our call on a Wednesday night to begin drying our house out after a flood. On Thursday morning, Alex Zimmer put together a complete quote for the full remediation. We found the quote high, and got a second quote from another provider. On Friday morning, we called Alex to let him know that we were going with the other company because of cost (paying out of pocket). Alex stated that the other company was not going to be as thorough, and convinced us to reconsider, offering to work on getting his quote down. He met us in the middle and offered to start the next day (Saturday). We agreed to go with AF&F and asked for the updated quote in writing. We repeatedly called and texted Alex throughout the day on Friday for the updated quote, which he assured he would get to us. Eventually, it was close of business on Friday and we had to cancel our other company (slated for Monday). Finally, AF&F sent the updated quote at 8 pm on Friday, for only $1k less than the original quote and roughly $5k more than the price discussed. Alex admitted this was AF&F's mistake, but was unwilling to honor our verbal agreement. Considering it was now Friday night and we were urgently seeking to remediate, we felt trapped and chose to go with AF&F and hope for the best. We did ask to speak to the owner, Robin, before we proceeded, who assured us they would do everything to keep the costs down, and that the quote was the "not to exceed" number and may be less. We felt somewhat better and chalked it up to a miscommunication. 2. A few days later, we received an invoice for 20% of the total quote. We had already paid a deposit on Wednesday which was not reflected in any of our new documents. We contacted AF&F to remind them of this, and at first, our project manager, Danielle, said it would be taken off "at the end" without further explanation. Given the upfront billing issue, we did not trust that this would occur. They did eventually make this right, but it felt like clear dishonesty and/or incompetence to have two billing issues at the outset. 3. As the work started in earnest, the team was prompt and did a good job. The only issue, which we flagged repeatedly to Danielle, was that certain pieces of equipment were sitting unused. She reassured us that we would only be billed for equipment used. Because the dry out hadn't taken as much equipment or as many days as the original estimate, we expected our final invoice could be less than the "not to exceed" number. Imagine our surprise when the total invoice was $700 over the "not to exceed" number! We did not approve any work outside the original scope, nor did they even seem to notice they went above the "not to exceed" number. They simply offered us a 5% "prompt payment" discount if we paid within 48 hours. We reviewed the invoice and quickly realized that they had cited 44 pieces of equipment in our 900 square foot home. This was a clear overbilling, which we pointed out. Both Danielle and Robin immediately replied to say that we were misreading the invoice and/or were incapable of doing basic arithmetic. We highlighted a specific room to point out discrepancies, and they went silent for a full day. We received an updated quote for a decreased price on Thursday morning, with a reminder of the "prompt payment" discount (now down to 24 hours with no adjustment for their mistake). Danielle admitted they had double charged us for equipment in several rooms and sent photo evidence, which we reviewed only to find additional errors. We asked for the supervisor hours to be removed as well, considering it was not included on the original estimate and we had to spend hours of our own correcting errors. We came to an agreement and paid the rest of the invoice in full by Friday. We never heard another word from Robin about any of this. Overall, we had no issue with the quality of their work. Their on-site crew were helpful and polite. However, these issues suggest incompetence or intentional overbilling. They take advantage of the fact that they're providing urgent services to people in difficult circumstances, using scare tactics and time pressure to sell. We would not recommend them under any circumstances.

Alex and I texted while items were being pulled from the house, receiving confirmation photos. Comms were good coordinating return of the cleaned items to a storage unit. Billing went smooth. It was only when items didn't turn up that AFF began to destroy the good will they had built with me. When trying to resolve the issue, they blamed their subcontractors and said objects not added to the project through "established communication channels" were not their responsibility -- it didn't matter how much proof I had. An antique family heirloom was lost and left another one sitting in Texas to be retrieved later on our dime. AFF makes errors and dodges accountability. Find another local outfit. If you must work with AFF, dot every i and cross every t -- and make sure you do it through their "established" channel. They added frustration to our tragedy.
