My husband and I did plenty of research before finally deciding to go with Affordable Roofing to get a re-roof done on our house They were within a few hundred dollars of a pretty reputable company in Cape Coral, and they guaranteed years, or they'll repair our roof, so we decided to go with them Well, that's about where the pleasantries end We never could get a date as to when they were going to be at our house The rude (did I mention extremely RUDE??) receptionist only kept telling us a 'month' that they would be at our house--NOT helpful AND not to mention they put a lien on our house!! We're in the middle refinancing our house, and we were dead in the water, because the company very quietly put a construction lien on our house Shady much?!? Well, the guys finally get to our house, and seemed pretty nice, but none of them spoke English Fine Not extremely professional, as we are paying them about $10k for a job...I guess we didn't really NEED to ask questions, right?? Well, the guys show up the first day and start tearing off our old roof Great But there was absolutely no communication as to the process and what we should expect to happen each day (apparently day is tear off, day two was a Sunday, so, ergo-nothing, Monday was waiting for the inspector to sign-off so they could proceed with re-roofing, and several days later, another inspection to completely sign-off on the project.) That's all well and good, but again, no one told us ANY of this! I ended up calling the site manager-Carl, which we didn't see hide nor hair of the entire project, and he apologized for the complete lack of communication, but it didn't get better We didn't see Carl the entire project, so I'm not really sure how he's the 'site manager,' but I digress After the guys get done, we write the final check, and get a copy of the lien release, and they disappethank yous, no call us if you have any problems--they just disappear as quickly as they appeared to start the job Well, that was Monday It's now Sunday, and I've got to say I've never SEEN, nor STEPPED ON so many nails in my LIFE!!!!! We saw the guys bring a metal magnet roller-thing across the yard--fine, but they didn't use it enough:( All I've got to say is it's a damn good thing I'm current on my Tetanus shots, because this week has been hell walking through our yard--even just walking to the trash can, I bring back at least nails And I haven't even mentioned all the cigarette butts and bits of roof and garbage left strewn-about our yard I've got to say, for a $10k paycheck, Affordable Roofing could be a little more professional and courteous to the homeowners they're working for I definitely think we're finding a new roofing company the next time we need to re-roof NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER! :(
