I contracted Jacob Rozanski of Rozanski Construction LLC to install truss package, facia and roof sheathing for my newly constructed home in Show Low on Febuary 19, 2025 with his stated completion time of 1 week start to finish. As he is a licensed contractor I assumed his work was within industry standards and Navajo County building codes. On the gable end overhang Rozanski proposed a 24-inch ladder design rake to be nailed to outer truss with sheathing on top to support for the weight of the ladder. I questioned the design several times but he assured me his company used that design many times. I began to do research on industry standards. I found a federal document at Energy.gov_ Solution Center Home, All Guides, Framing of Gable Roof Overhangs that recommended gable overhangs not be over 12 inches unless outriggers are used which was confirmed by multiple licensed contractors in the area. I sent that information to Rozanski but he refused to change what he intended to install and would not install outriggers without additional cost. After several delays and excuses the disagreement came to a stalemate on April 4, 2025 when Rozanski refused to adhere to good industry practices and claimed that I was in breach of contract, abandoned the job and demanded full payment and threatened legal action attaching a lean on my property. That is when a should have consulted an Attorney with construction experience. Big mistake on my part. I hired a licensed PE listed on the Navajo County website to evaluate the work Rozanski performed. Here are some quotes from the professional engineer's evaluation. * "I noted that the trusses were off quite a bit and there was a cumulative 4' inch difference at the south end" * "I wondered if this roofing contractor measured anything or used a tape measure" * "The outside rim board has a big "curve" in it as it as it proceeds up to the roof. This needs to be corrected to "straight" as the ladder rafters are two feet long and just toe-nailed into the outer or end truss. This practice may lead to "sag" in the overhang in the future." After Rozanski abandon the project, I consulted with the Navajo County Building Administration and they confirmed county codes do not allow gable rake overhangs over 12 inches per the 2018 International Residential Code R804 3.2.0.1.2 Rozanski may respond to this review and say the house was not built correctly or material wasn't correct but the craftsman that fixed his mess had no trouble finishing the build correctly. Here are a few more quotes from the Professional Engineer's evaluation. * "I also observed that the garage was square within ¼ inch using the criss-cross method" * "The exterior wall studs were the required 16" on center" Rozanski Construction was the worst sub-contractor on my project. Contract stated he would take approximately one week to complete, 44 days later after many delays and excuses he abandoned the job and I had to hire other craftsman to complete the project. read more

Rozanski Construction - Ladder gable end - General Contractors Near Me

Horrible horrible! Would never recommend them to anyone!!!! They abandoned the job because we insisted that they follow Navajo County codes!

Highly recommend Jacob Rozanski and his crew! We couldn't be happier with our experience and the quality of his work. We had a 3 month addition that our previous contractor couldn't complete after 2 years. We asked Jacob for a quote to finish the addition and discovered that almost everything the previous contractor completed needed to be re-done. Framing wasn't plumb or to plan, electrical dangerously incomplete, faulty plumbing and just poor workmanship all around. Jacob and his crew were great to work with and very communicative with detailed explanations. They were on site 5 days a week and worked all day. Jacob's bid did not change during the project. He primarily uses his own crew for the work and is very particular with details. We were so happy with how the addition turned out that we hired him for a second project, a deck addition. Jacob was hands on with everything from the draftsman's plans, the selection of building materials to the final product. He is really knowledgeable and works with you to ensure your vision is what you get. There is always a level of trust with any home project. With Rozanski Contruction you can rest assured that your project will be completed at a high level that Jacob Rozanski will personally approve. read more

We had a difficult time finding a reliable experienced contractor in the Show Low area. We needed both a deck and shower demo and rebuild due to poor workmanship from a previous contractor. Jacob and his wife were incredibly responsive, timely, and transparent when working with us on these projects. He went out of his way to assist us with creative solutions to work within our budget and was dedicated to ensuring we felt comfortable every step of the way. The end result was a beautiful deck that exceeded our expectations. His workmanship and quality are outstanding and he prides himself on having the highest standards for construction and safety. We could not have been more happy with the process or the outcome. If you need a contractor I could not recommend Rozanski more highly and have full confidence that you will be as satisfied as we were. read more
