On January 14, 2026 I contacted La Mariposa Construction, LLC regarding possible vent/flashing damage to my HVAC exhaust vent. I was given a quote of $600 over the phone and was told they would "price match" another company I had contacted.
The first time La Mariposa came to look at my roof it was dark. The text had said that was no problem, they had flashlights. When they arrived, Roussy, (wife) came inside and explained what her husband Jesus was going to do - examine my roof and attic for a possible leak where the upstairs HVAC was located. At one point she went outside to see what he was doing and came back inside with an infant. (I assumed the child had been outside somewhere with a third adult). Jesus then came inside and told me what he had found.
I asked for a written estimate: I received one the next day which stated it would cost $1150 to "repair furnace roof flashing." When I asked about the condition of the other vents, Roussy told me if I wanted them to "return in the daytime to check all vents," they could but that it would cost $99 for a "full roof report." I agreed and
they returned five days later.
Several things happened during this second visit: Roussy had an infant with her in my home the entire time Jesus was on my roof; she went outside at one point and returned with a second child; when Jesus came in he brought a third child. After Jesus went back outside, the third child used the bathroom and then two of the children wandered over to an area in my living room where I had kenneled my two dogs. I asked Roussy to please supervise her children - I was afraid one of them might stick their fingers in the kennels. (I wondered where the children had been while their parents were in my home. I looked outside when they left but did not see another adult.) Bringing children to a potential customer's home is unprofessional and unsafe.
I was supposed to receive the report I had paid for the next day. When I did not hear back from the the company I texted Roussy who told me that Jesus needed to return to my home because he had not taken all of the needed photos of the vents/flashing on my roof. She then texted and said they had found the additional photos on another phone and I would receive the report later that day. Two days later and after many texts from me, I received the report. I reviewed the report and texted Roussy three times asking for clarification regarding the photographed vents. I have never received a response.
I later researched this company through their CCB (construction contractor license). La Mariposa Construction has had their license suspended twice in the last 10 years and has a pending complaint filed against them (opened 1/14/26).
I do not recommend La Mariposa Construction for any work. They lack professionalism; did not complete the work I paid for and they were unresponsive to my requests to complete the work. read more
