A quick Google search and a bit of research told me that Mike's Seamless Gutters was the place to call. I found his website and filled out the form for an estimate. Within minutes he called me and pulled up photos of my house on Google Maps and was able to give me an estimate. I let him know that I also wanted gutter guards as well. He told me that he could get to it in about two weeks (which was WAY quicker than I had anticipated). A few days later he called and told me he could do it now. Mike and his assistant showed up right when he said he would and they immediately got to work. Withing a few hours I had beautiful new gutters on my home. Mike said that the gutter guards would arrive in a couple of days and they would come out and install them. Sure enough, while I was away, they came out and finished the job. He left an invoice for exactly what his estimate was and I still think it was the best bargain around. Here's my take on Mike and his company. He's honest, reliable, professional, efficient and really does just want to homeowner to be happy. Well Mike, my wife and I are very happy. Thank you!

He repaired my damaged siding beautifully, and the finished work looks fantastic. What impressed me most was how responsive and helpful he was throughout the process. He clearly takes pride in his work, and it shows in the quality of the repair. If you need roofing, siding, or exterior repairs, I highly recommend Freedom Roofing. They have been wonderful to work with, and I wouldn't hesitate to call them again. Hands down one of the best companies I've dealt with!

I had a very bad experience and would not recommend them and will not use them again. It's a very long story about all the issues so I will summarize. They replaced the roof and immediately I noticed damage to the interior of my home. The damage consisted of cracked ceilings. Freedom Roofing didn't want to take responsibility for the damage or the repairs. I was forced to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau to try to entice action by the company. The company did not response in the required 14 days and I had to call the BBB to ask them to illicit a response from the company. When prompted Freedom finally responded. Inept drywall people came to my home and repaired the cracks and painted the ceilings a different ceiling color and did a poor job on the repair. I called the owner of Freedom Roofing and he came to my home and agreed the ceiling job looked poor and asked me to get an estimate for a paint job to fix the job his company botched. I got an estimate and submitted it to him and he deducted it from the balance I owed him for the roof job. This process took 5 long months. I am sure the company would of not taken responsibility but for the fact that I filed a complaint with the BBB. There were many other issues, but that was one main one. Since this happened my insurance agent has taken them off the recommended list. Linda M.

I asked him a load of questions about his business, materials, suppliers, history, etc. which he answered in detail and seemed to appreciate the questions. After interviewing multiple strong candidates for the job, I went with Gutters Are Us because of the positive impression Mike made on me. On the day of the service,Mike and his crew came over, invited me to watch their work and process, and after a couple of hours I had new gutters, downspouts, and leaf guards that matched the paint of my house. Mike afterwards gave me a walking tour of his work and everything looked great. Afterwards, I went up on the roof to more closely examine the work and was not disappointed. Gutters, downspouts, and leaf guards all expertly installed and fitted perfectly. Mike left me with his number and told me to reach out if there were any issues with the work. I don't anticipate there being such a need. In addition to the great service, the price was VERY competitive. Happy customer with a STRONG recommendation to go with Gutters Are Us!

BUYERS BEWARE!!! John inspected our split level Urbana house we purchased in 2021. We chose him…read morepurely off our realtor's recommendation as this was our first home purchase. The first red flag was that he insisted that we did not attend the inspection. Now, this was 2021 and COVID-19 was still somewhat of a hot button issue, though with a vaccine out and available to anyone by this point, it should have been more obvious that this was going to be some sketchy work. He said in the email that he cannot legally keep us from attending, but would essentially have to remain out of the same room as him as he did the inspection. Nevertheless, we figured he was just still super cautious about the disease and wanted to keep more than the recommended distance at the time and decided we would comply with his request. Inspection came and went and we went through the buying process with few concessions. After close, we started to see how he missed stuff as well as blatantly lied on the report. I almost got electrocuted trying to install a new dishwasher because he failed to notice uninsulated wires pulled out of a electrical box under the sink. Had an electrician put wire nuts on the wires and close it up. We went to start the hot water heater, which he said in the report was functioning properly, and the pilot light would not stay on. Had a plumber come look at it and they said the thermocouple was broken and would kick out the pilot. I asked the plumber if this would have broken in the 2 weeks or so since the inspection and he said it was very unlikely. The worst ones are to come. John noted that there was no roof damage. Two weeks in, water started leaking into our kitchen. Had a roofer look at it and they said there was rot under that area of the roof. Asked if a home inspector should have know about it and they said absolutely, no possible way it developed between the inspection and then. If john had actually looked in the attic, he would have seen that plain as day. Had to pay a roofing company nearly 3 grand for that one. Most frustrating one, which full honesty, cannot be 100% the liability of the home inspector as we took his advice and should have checked it with others, was the crawlspace. There was a broken sump pump in a bucket buried in the dirt at the lowest part of the crawlspace when we moved in. John noted that it did not work, but was not needed. This caused us to not concern ourselves with fixing or replacing it with a proper sump. Four months after closing, we started noticing that our basement carpet kept getting wet, but we thought it was the dog at the time. Poor puppy as it was actually the crawlspace next to the basement filling up with water and flowing over and down into the basement! We didn't know this until the entire carpet was wet! I ran to the store and grabbed a pump to start getting water out of the crawlspace. We had to rip up all the flooring and replace it, as well as installing a proper sump in the crawlspace. Unfortunately, our HOI did not cover these expenses and we were out another 3 grand in repairs, plus the sump install. Note: we did reach out to john when these issues started happening (before the roof leak or crawlspace issue) and he offered to refund us, but only if we signed a very shady document where we could not sue him for any future issues due to his negligence. We obviously saw right through that one and did not sign. Tried to reach out to a number of lawyers and no one was interested in taking the case, my guess is because the settlement would be relatively low in the 10's of thousands and not worth their time. The cherry on the cake is that our realtor sent us a bottle of wine after closing with his and Pristine's logo on it. Obviously they get some kickbacks from working together and are probably just drinking buddies. Bottom line, if you are a buyer and your realtor recommends Pristine, fire them and find someone else! TO Sellers: You probably can't go wrong getting a pre-inspection done by Pristine. They will make sure they find nothing wrong with your house and hopefully your buyers don't read this review!
