Do not hire. JACO does not know how to install drip edge, and had to hire a gutter company, who also knows nothing about installing drip edge, to do the job that any reputable roofing company should know how to do! On August 1, 2020 JACO Contracting replaced my roof due to storm damage. My roof needed to be brought up to code to comply with Section R905 of the Requirements for Residential Roof Coverings in Georgia. The new roofing code requires drip edge to be installed at the eaves and gables of shingled roofs. JACO violated this requirement when installing my roof by failing to install the drip edge. The required drip edge was purchased, was on-site, and was included in the work agreement. However, the drip edge was discarded in the throw-away dumpster. On August 4, 2020, I contacted JACO regarding the fact that my roof was not compliant with the new code. I was told multiple reasons why the drip edge was not installed, and ultimately JACO wanted to install gutter guards instead of the required drip edge. I contacted my county and insurance company and was informed that if the drip edge is not installed around the perimeter and rake of my home that the new roof would not be up to code as required by Georgia Law. I also confirmed with Owens Corning that gutter guard is not the same as the required drip edge. On October 20, 2020, Owens Corning sent JACO installation guidelines and instructions. However, on December 17, 2020, JACO was still unable to install the drip edge around the perimeter of my home and attempted to install another substitute for the drip edge. This substitute was folded sheet metal that was too wide to fit above the gutters and did not have the required kicker that is crucial in diverting the rain away from the home and into the gutters. JACO wanted to cut the sheet metal so that it would fit around and above the gutters which results in a path for rain to drain and would result in wood rot and mold of the fascia boards and damage to other wood areas of my home. In March 2021, JACO sent a sub-contractor, Kuhn Gutters, LLC, to my home to install the drip edge that should have been installed in August 2020. The sub-contractor also reinstalled gutters after installing the drip edge. On April 16, 2021, the sub-contractor needed to come back to my home because rain is draining behind the gutters. The draining rain behind the gutters falls to the ground and is splashing rain and mud upon the hardy plank area near the foundation of my home. The hardy plank becomes saturated with the rain and is leading to the deterioration of the hardy plank and to other wood areas on the home. These wet areas are also a breeding ground for mold, termites, and is flooding my home's foundation. Some are shingles are not lying flat on the roof and are causing the roofing deck to be exposed. The excess water exposure is also damaging the fascia on my home. At this point, the drip edge has become dislodged and is clogging the gutters. None of the drip edge is nailed down or secured to the roof deck, nor is it under the underlayment in which both are required for proper installation. In many places the drip edge is bent, and just placed behind the gutters. There is also a gap between the fascia and the gutters where the shingles do not cover. These issues are causing severe damage to my home and are the result of the negligent workmanship provided by JACO Contracting and the sub-contractor. On the front of the home there is a gutter without a downspout The rain drains into the gutter, but has no way to leave the gutter, other than by flowing backwards and running down the roof and into the home's foundation. I hired JACO because of its Owens Corning Platinum Installer status. However, it has been 12 months and there are still very serious issues with my roof and gutter system caused by JACO's negligent work. I even sent JACO a Bob Vila link on how to install drip edge, and still JACO failed to install the drip edge properly. JACO simply does not know how to install drip edge. read more
