David General Contractor (NYC LIC # 1323355, NASSAU COUNTY LIC # 194961, SUFFOLK COUNTY LIC #…read more46212-H) 100 Duffy Av Hicksville, NY 11801, Phone: 516-833-6016) failed at doing their job. I hired David to replace a flat roof and the stone gable of the front part for a single attached family house. Their job consisted of leveling the roof to avoid large amounts of water from accumulating on the roof, wrapping both sides of the parapet wall to reach the parapet cups so it can properly insulate the roof and, finally, removing and replacing the broken stones on the front gable roof to ensure safety from any falling stones. None of the above mentioned tasks were done correctly and in fact they were done with extremely poor craftsmanship and it was clear from the result of the job that absolutely zero effort was put into the work. For instance, on the flat roof, David used an EPDM membrane that wasn't properly attached to the fiberboard roof panel on the plywood, which is completely wrong. He also didn't use any waterproof or vapor lining. Furthermore, the materials used on my roof looked old like he recycled materials from previous projects rather than buying new ones. In addition, he did not level the roof correctly causing rain water to sit on the roof for more than 5 days. Another failed part of this project. He did not properly  seal the gutters on both sides causing the rain water, that leaked from the roof, to freeze which affected my and the neighbor's wall. Also, the gutters weren't leveling which caused inches of water to sit there until it evaporated. Moreover, he was supposed to fix the whole gutter system and level that part of the roof using insulation to prevent water from collecting, but he never showed up. For the parapet wall, he left a big gap between the wall and the parapet cups, which caused several problems, including failing to properly insulate my house. This made it unbearable, especially during the cold winter temperatures. Finally, the front gable roof was done poorly. When it was windy, pieces of slate stone began falling off, and water was flashing in all directions. This is really dangerous and unsafe. As mentioned above, I am deeply disappointed with the poor quality of work this company performed on the roofs. I honestly can't believe they have a 5-star rating and over 20 years of experience. They charged me over $14,000 for a job that clearly didn't justify the cost and has only led to further problems and expenses. When I voiced my concerns, David took it upon himself to trespass on my property and my neighbors' to film my roof and all the neighborhs roof, as well when I wasn't home. This is completely unprofessional and unacceptable. I would not recommend this contractor to anyone looking for a team that values customer respect and delivers work with integrity, as they failed on both ends.

I wish I could give David more than 5 stars. My insurance company called me informing me that I…read morehad 20 days to completely replace my roof, and if I did not, they would drop me. I started looking for different insurance companies to switch to but everyone's price had now doubled because of inflation. I had no choice but to repair the roof. I got 3 quotes, and David's was the best price. I was hesitant to use him because he did not have that many reviews on yelp, but he had many more on google. Because this was a surprise cost, I needed to go with the most economical choice. I am so happy that I chose David. He did an excellent job for a great price. Not only that, but he also completed it within the time frame my insurance carrier needed it to be. David is awesome. I Definitely recommend.

I couldn't be happier with the work done by Advanced Roofing. This is the second home they've…read morecompleted for me (roof, siding, and gutters), and once again they absolutely delivered. From start to finish, their communication was clear, consistent, and professional. The team walked me through every step, set expectations upfront, and executed exactly as promised. No surprises--just results. The quality of the work is outstanding. You can immediately see the attention to detail, and the finished product completely transformed the look of my home. Since the project was completed, I've had multiple neighbors stop by to compliment the house and ask who did the work--which says everything. The curb appeal upgrade is night and day. On top of that, their pricing was fair and competitive, especially considering the level of craftsmanship and service you receive. What really stands out is the consistency. It's one thing to have a great experience once--but to have it happen twice on two separate homes says everything about how they operate as a company. I've worked with a lot of contractors over the years, and I can confidently say I won't use anyone else moving forward. If you're considering roofing, siding, or gutters, do yourself a favor and go with Advanced Roofing. I've attached before and after photos so you can see the transformation for yourself.

Perhaps it was their first job with me 4 years ago but I have learned a lot since they came and…read morewent. They did paver walkways and around thee pool at my house. The mistakes and poor workmanship are far tooo many to list here. They didn't even use polymeric sand as they were supposed to for the entire job. They did not lay a concrete foundation for the pavers, drilled holes for the pool ladder in the wrong spot requiring me to buy a new ladder, and there is much much more. My neighbor had recommended them but has now cut ties due to another job they screwed up. NOW, about 4 years later (the problems started at 1 year) I have to hire someone to power wash between my pavers, reset many of them and properly install the polymeric sand as should have been done at first. The pavers are tilting away from the walkway and the whole area that was not properly installed (most of it) needs to be re-done. Unless Corey has learned since doing my job how to do this work professionally, I would stay away from him. When confronted with the workmanship he was hostile to the point where he was intimidating and just stuck with the fact that he underestimated the cost. Now after all this time I have finally gotten the gumption to tell the story as it was. I have photos for proof of how he left the property. So, should you decide to use this firm, learn first about how it's supposed to be done and them watch and make certain they do it correctly.

We lined the larger driveway with a small retaining wall along my neighbors side. Everyone of his guys are cordial and they all seem to work like a well oiled machine. After having other companies to give estimates I'm so happy we decided on pure! Everything came out so perfectly we've already contracted with them for a new built in BBQ and firepit this spring. I can't wait to see how great it's gonna come out. I highly recommend the guys at pure to all of my friends and colleagues. Thank you Corey for fulfilling my family's expectations.

I had a very unusual experience with Basic Landscaping. I hired them to plant trees and shrubs on…read moremy property and signed a contract for $53K. When they were done, they charged me additional $2300 for planting extra plants, which was never discussed with me before it was allegedly done. Nevertheless, I paid additional money without saying anything. At the end Basic asked me if I wanted to sign a maintenance contract. I declined because it was very expensive considering the amount of work being proposed, required inclusion of lawn maintenance (I do that myself), and also had language regarding dumping yard waste on my property. The biggest issue I had with Basic was that they planted the wrong trees and refused to replace them. The centerpiece of my landscape design were three trees with bright yellow and red leaves. Basic planted a green leaf variety of the same tree, completely ruining my landscape design intent. When I complained about this, during the warranty period, Basic initially tried blaming me since I did not sign a maintenance contract, probably assuming I was too ignorant to figure out what happened. When that argument did not fly, they tried blaming the plant material supplier, which again had nothing to do with a $53K planting contract I had with Basic. Finaly, after many months of stalling, they said that I complained too late. I understand that sometimes mistakes happen, however I found it unusual that a contractor who made a mistake would aggressively attack me, in writing, and refuse to do anything to correct a problem. Additional to the problems described above, another Basic proposal, to address the lawn flooding issue, had a ridiculous solution - move the water from one end of the lawn to another, and the proposed price was incredibly high considering it involved two guys with shovels for a day.
