6/22 Damion Schifferer told Jim 3 or 4 days to remove old roof, 2 or 3 days to install new roof; "We will start tomorrow." Jim signed the contract.
6/23 Two men came & tape measured the roof then not a word or action until
7/10--7/25 removed roof & covered with plastic tarps which blew off often Could not use AC with its tower covered
7/27 Wrong roofing piled in front of garage door; blocked access till 8/15
8/9 Rain shorted doorbell & caused bedroom ceiling collapse. Men retarped roof & helped Jim divert flash flood
8/27 Another part of the ceiling collapsed.
9/7 Came sporadically to fix ceiling, even on a Sunday from 3 to 8:30PM Never finished
9/9 Jim went to our doctor and was given a prescription for anxiety
9/26 Schifferer called demanding we pay in full, that we do not need rolled roof ridge or 25 vents, job is done, threatening ultimatums & said final inspection done. Will deduct 8% ($2,026.16) for delays & rescheduling
9/27 Jim paid!
10/6 Removed their trash pile, never came back
10/8 Found out how to contact building inspector; called him, he said final inspection had NOT been done yet. Mr. Schifferer LIED to me!
10/16 called Home Depot's service desk, told Carrie all our problems. Emailed pictures she asked for. She sent them on to Mark Nord & he called me at 3:35 saying he will call a contractor who does excellent work and have him contact us.
10/20 New contractors found beam still not braced. None of the pipe vents sealed. Don't need '25 low profile vents' (refund that money & the cost of installing them.) Did need ridge vent. Fixed doorbell, made ceiling look brand new all completed in 3 days!
11/21Called David Wright asking about final inspection, refund for low profile vents, etc. & compensation for all Home Depot has put us through.
12/18 He has not called back and Carrie has mysteriously disappeared!
Our entire summer was ruined: no vacations; no company, not even for my daughter's and my annual dual birthdays. I wouldn't even go in the pool in case workers showed up.
I have photos all the way through this mess.
We feel the job is not finished until we have final inspection papers, refund for the vents and their installation and a large compensation, $50,000 for over 5 month's emotional suffering, for everything we have been put through.
Damion Schifferer should be reprimanded for leading us to believe the job would be completed less than 2 weeks after Jim signed the contract and he should be FIRED for lying to and coercing us into paying when the roof, ceiling & doorbell repairs were unfinished.
1/8/15 Still no returned call from David Wright; still no refund for materials they charged for but didn't use. read more
