M&R Roofing

This is the worst service experience I have ever had in my lifeThe work on my roof wasn't undertaken until over months later than promisedFurthermore, it was a botched job from beginning to endMy house is a small Victorian row house in CabbagetownSince it is attached on both sides, it is a situation that requires some finesseI had heard that M and R Roofing had done a lot of work in Cabbagetown and figured they would be used to this kind of situationWrong*** *** they *** threw pieces of the roof indiscriminately to the untarped, unprotected ground, destroying my garden (even though my tenant kept protesting and sending me pictures)The clean up was so sloppy (including a skylight being reinstalled crookedly), that the crew had to be ordered backIn addition to butchering my garden, a portion of the roof hit my porch and broke a brick off the brick siding/wall that encloses itWorse still, they hit and broke the gas meter, which resulted in *** tagging the gasline and the water heater (meaning they would be shut off in a month if something wasn't done) This was not only costly, but required endless negotiations with *** as well as an outside heating expert(When *** did fix the meter, for some reason this required digging up my front yard again for good measure)When I received the bill from M and R, it was months laterAt first I thought they were ashamed about what happened, but it turns out that there is really something very wrong in their accounting department I suggested that, in view of the overall debacle, I should only pay the price of the estimate and not the $add onI emailed several times about this, but didn't hear back for over a month, at which point the owner called me***: he shouted and spouted obscenitiesHe, of course, would admit to no wrong doingSo they sent a collection agency after me for the $I am ashamed to say that I caved and have finally sent in a checkNeedless to say I received no compensation or apology for the damage causedM and R Roofing seems to be highly thought of in CabbagetownI hope this review changes some minds and saves unsuspecting homeowners a lot of grief
