*** *** Bottom line is the company feels nothing they have done to me is wrong and they have no desire to make things rightI have sent you the approved insurance informationThat was proof what insurance approved was not their estimate theirs was too high and insurance denied itThat alone should have voided the so called contractThe piece of paper with no information on it but my nameAs you can also see our copies vary from one anotherYou have both copiesYou also have the bill from them clearly stating we have months to pay the fee they put on us for their "time with insurance company" or a lien would be placedYet a lien was placed on property the day after they received the complaint I placed with youSo it was s direct result of the complaint being filedReally nothing will get solved between Frisby Construction and I because he has a personal vendetta out for me based on what I stated in my initial complaintHe has shown that through his nasty text messages which you also have receivedEven though my problem with them will not get solved through Revdex.com I hope the company's rating will get lowered so that someone will think twice before choosing them and ending up in the unfortunate situation we are in

This complaint is made based on the premise from the homeowner that our company rep verbally stated something outside the four corners of a signed contract.  [redacted] states in her complaint that our rep repeatedly told her this form was only to deal with the insurance company, however, right on...

the front of the page, in bold blocked letters, just above her signature, it states: "SUBJECT TO INSURANCE COMPANY APPROVAL - I HAVE HEREBY BEEN NOTIFIED THAT I MAY CANCEL THIS AGREEMENT AT ANY TIME PRIOR TO THE THIRD BUSINESS DAY AFTER THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT".  This contract was signed by [redacted] and clearly stated, in multiple areas, that if we spend the time working with her insurance company, fighting this claim on her behalf, that we are therefore promised the job for the full scope and full insurance proceeds once the claim process has concluded.  Since we would be acting as an agent of [redacted] FREE OF CHARGE, if the insurance company did NOT pay for the roof... she was given the fortunate opportunity to be in a situation where she would not, and could not lose.  Because Option #1 is the Insurance company meets our company at her property, and the claim is ultimately denied.... and based on our contractual agreement, she would not be obligated to use us because insurance did NOT approve the job.  OPTION #2, is the insurance company approves the new roof (which they did), and our expertise and skills and time in meeting with her adjuster just provided her with the luxury of a new roof, courtesy of full insurance proceeds.  Our reward for our hardwork being the very job that we fought for on the customers behalf.  (If [redacted] would have refused to sign the contract, we would have never spent the time in the first place meeting and dealing with her adjuster.  We would have simply provided her an estimate for her roof and been on our way to the next customer who actually appreciates the services we offer)However, this is not how the transaction went.  After signing the contract... and having THREE FULL DAYS to read the contract which she signed, she still insisted that we help her and work with her insurance company.  Keep in mind, [redacted] lives in Wilmington Ohio, Nearly 55 minutes from our office.  We made the multiple trips to her house... met with her adjuster.... agreed on a scope of work and ensured she was not short changed by the insurance company... and even supplemented our estimate to the insurance company for things they were shorting [redacted].  After all of this work was completed on our behalf.... with no money out of pocket from [redacted]... [redacted] then changed her attitude towards us.  We had dealt with [redacted] and her insurance company for a full 2 months during this process... not charging her ONE DIME.... and the second she knew we got her a new roof bought by working with her insurance company, she mysteriously disappeared.  The insurance funds were issued directly to [redacted], and we could no longer get ahold of her.  Several weeks later, we drove by the house to see the roof was being done by a different company.  When we called [redacted] to ask her about the status of her roof, she told us she "found someone cheaper to do the job".  Keep in mind, pocketing money from an insurance project is a Felony, and against the law.  If a cheaper estimate was prepared by another contractor, [redacted] is required to pay that difference back to her insurance company, since there is no allowance under Federal Law for a homeowner to profit, "or have a windfall situation", at the hands of an insurance claim. (It's not fair to other homeowners with the same insurance company who pay premiums for a homeowner to pocket other people's money.)Essentially, what [redacted] did to our company.. was utilize our service, breach a contract, take money from an insurance company, then file a complaint on us for speaking to her about her decisions.  I explained to [redacted] that she could not go into a doctors office for her son's broken arm, get a cast put on, then take the medical insurance money and pocket the difference.  She did not understand, or want to hear the concept of what she was doing, and resorted to literally crying on the phone, and then filing a complaint on us.  Further more, our contract calls for **% payment in lieu of a breached contract, of the initial insurance settlement.  [redacted] was looking at a bill of over $[redacted] for her actions.  However, being the understanding people that we are, I tried to have a civilized conversation with her on the phone.  I asked [redacted] to just compensate us $[redacted] for our time and effort, and we would both go our own ways.  Instead, [redacted] decided to fight back and refuse to cooperate or even come to fair terms with us regarding the matter.  When [redacted] began to cry and tell me all of her personal problems in her life, I tried to sympathize with her.  I explained to her that I understand hardships and that we all have them... that was why I was trying to resolve the issue in her best interest, but still allowing us to obtain some compensation for all of our time.  [redacted] emphatically exclaimed that I did NOT understand and I had no idea what she was going through.  I then explained to [redacted] that I too have had many hardships in my life, one being the [redacted]  [redacted]  I was trying to console [redacted] as she cried on the phone because she realized she had done wrong by us... but tried to deceitfully get out of doing what was right.As we can all see, she twisted my words to make it look like I was using the death of my beloved sister for some strategic move to advance my gain.  This was disgusting to see and was a complete insult to injury situation for me, my family, and my company.  After I had seen and heard enough, I made the decision to protect our financial interest in this matter, and we filed civil paperwork to protect those same interest.  [redacted] does not realize the issues she is going to face in the near future when she has to explain what she has done with the insurance proceeds after telling me on a recorded line that she found someone else to do the job cheaper, and in complete disregard to our contract and hard work and effort put into her claim.  It is situations like this that make being a contractor so difficult.  We just ask whoever reads this to understand that we have been incredibly blessed by our Lord & Christ Jesus, and because of those blessings we have been able to work with MANY homeowners. (Most of which are a pleasure to deal with).  However... with many clients, come bad apples.  It's the nature of the number game.  Also unfortunate that we can please 1,000 customers and make them happy all the way til the end of days... but when a homeowner tries to deceitfully gain from our hard work... and then get resistance and push back from our side... .they resort to leaving negative feedback as their way of trying to inappropriately hurt a good and honest company.It should be further noted that when [redacted] received the civil paperwork we filed on them, she then had her husband post a second comment on Revdex.com, then threaten us with more verbal slander if we didn't "go away".  Well, I was conclude by saying... [redacted], we are not going away... and we plan to pursue damages caused by your false postings at the selfish and greedy gain of your own self interest.  I'm not sure how you sleep peacefully at night knowing how wrong you treated us.. and I just hope that the public at large understands that we care deeply about our customers.  It's very hurtful to see situations such as these especially when customers are so happy when things go their way and their deceitful plan doesn't go as smoothly as they hoped it would go.  Thank you to all of our other loyal and righteous customers, who stand on their own merits and integrity after signing a contract.  For anyone who is interested, we will provide you a copy of the documentation of [redacted] and her paperwork.  We encourage you to make your own decision from the facts at hand... which are signed by [redacted] herself, who claims we mistreated her and erroneously charged her, which is clearly not the case.Respectfully,The Frisby Family.

I am writing in response to customer [redacted]'s Revdex.com Complaint against Frisby Construction.    Customer is right in that his contract stated to remove existing siding from dormer.  However, it is common for us to have our foreman assess the situation (whither or not to remove...

existing siding) before starting each job to determine if this is the best course of action considering the age, condition, and area of the house.   Sometimes, as in the case with this customer's home, the foreman suggested siding over the existing siding on this job.  Which he did speak to the customer about when on site.  His professional opinion was that removing the old siding could result in having to redo some of the flashing around the dormer, or the underlying wood could be damaged during removal and need replaced - both would result as an additional cost to the customer.   Also, a plus to leaving the existing siding is that this adds a R-value to the home (insulation).   My foreman was indeed looking out for the best interest of our customer, trying to save Mr. [redacted] from the possibility of incurring more costs due to removing the siding.    All of this was explained to the homeowner by our foreman and later by our salesman.  Customer has failed to mention the additional metal work that my foreman did for him at no extra charge to the customer.   After job completion Mr. [redacted] told us that he was under the impression that the fascia trim on his dormer would be replaced as a part of the siding contract he signed with Frisby.   Customer's signed contract does not mention fascia or trim in any shape or form- therefore my foreman was not instructed to do so.   We really do care about our customer's satisfaction, and in order to please customer, my foreman and I agreed to wrap the fascia boards on the dormer with metal at NO CHARGE to the customer, giving the dormer a more "finished" and clean look to go with the newly installed siding.  This metal will protect the fascia boards from further weathering.  Customer accuses Frisby Construction of "saving themselves time and money" by not removing the old siding, and yet we provided additional work to customer's home free of charge, which did indeed cost Frisby additional time and money.  My foreman works with us on a per job basis and always factors in debris removal regardless of job description.   Frisby would only be saving about $35 (or $10/SQ) for not removing this customer's siding.   And yet we incurred the significantly higher labor and material cost of wrapping the fascia boards for customer in attempt to make him happy.  We have been in contact with customer several times regarding this issue.  My foreman has met on site with him, and my salesman has made several phone calls to him, and relayed the office's answer that we cannot refund him money.   He did not like the salesman's answer so he continued to call and text the girls in the office; often being very rude and demanding a refund.  If customer was unhappy about siding over the existing he could have discussed with foreman on site during construction when they were discussing it.  Customer also promptly paid his balance upon job completion (we allow our customers to hold 10% of their remaining balance if they have issues with their job).  I myself considered sending customer a gift card for his trouble and his patience while waiting on his work to begin, but I decided against it once customer started demanding a refund from the girls in my office in a very unprofessional tone.   During this entire period customer has never complained about the appearance or integrity of the siding job completed by Frisby Construction.

Business said a contract has been signed to resume wk in the spring when less impact to roof will occur. In cold weather it's prone to damage from shingles cracking.

To the Revdex.com,cc; [redacted]It is never our intention to put a homeowner into a situation they are not comfortable with.  We have been in business for other 30 years and have serviced thousands of homes, and have an estimated annual revenue of over $*M usd. We did not get this far as a company by "threatening homeowners" and "lying" as Ms. [redacted] indicates.  However, as a company, which is the source of our living, just as others have their jobs to provide for their way of life, we have an obligation AND right, to protect ourselves from business transactions that are detrimental to our operations.  I would ask the Revdex.com to view this complaint in a pragmatic way, using the documents provided as the determining factor when weighing this situation and the arguments posed by both parties.Going back and forth based on absolutely no evidence at hand, will never lead to a compromising solution for both parties at the same time.  I will take a brief moment to address Ms. [redacted]'s accusations.  The way she claims I treated her are simply not true.  I approach every situation with how I would want to be treated myself, and I certainly was never disrespectful to Ms. [redacted].  She may not like the action my company took against her, but that doesn't mean I was rude or disrespectful about it.  If we look at the facts on hand, I am confident you will be able to draw the conclusion that our company, and Ms. [redacted], entered into a mutual and agreeable binding contract.  This contract has been held up in a court of law on other cases, and is meant to protect both parties, including Ms. [redacted] in this case.The contract CLEARLY states the terms.  If Ms. [redacted]'s argument is based on the notion that she didn't understand what she was signing, then I would argue that she should have sought clarification before signing.  For example, driving 50 mph in a posted 35 mph zone doesn't automatically make you an innocent party, just because you didn't know the speed limit changed.  Much like our contract, every aspect of the insurance negotiation process is spelled out in great detail.  These situations ONLY arise, when a homeowner thinks that the contract means nothing to them, and they can take the money after our hard work, and then profit the difference by getting a cheaper estimate.  There are many professions where physical services may not have been performed yet, in which you still owe for the services.  One example would be the services rendered by a law firm.  If you sign a contract with a law firm, and they provide a service to you, then you have an obligation to pay for those services, especially if there is a signed agreement. Our services were performed in their entirety with Ms. [redacted].  We made multiple trips to her property and worked with the insurance company on her behalf.  There were absolutely no complaints to my office prior to  the issuance of the insurance check.  I adamantly profess that the fruition of the insurance pay out was a DIRECT RESULT of the hard work and time spent by my company working with her insurance company.  If [redacted] would not have signed the contingency contract agreement, we would have simply given her an estimate on her roof and went on to the next customer in our Que.  We do not have the time or resources as a company to provide one on one services to multiple homeowners going through the insurance process without any guarantee that we would be promised the job if we ultimately negotiated a settlement to the claim.  This is precisely the reason we have contracts in place.  It allows us to dedicate our time to those individuals who value and need our services.  This is not a contract to have us facilitate the process, just to have Ms. [redacted] take the insurance proceeds from the work and services we performed and pocket the difference.  (Even if there is NO difference in pricing, it still does not allow a customer to breach the contract in this manner).  Her argument of "not knowing what she signed" is the basis of this entire complaint.  She is reacting to the legal ramifications that were set in place which she agreed to at signing.  That contract is in place to protect Ms. [redacted] just as much is it is to protect us.  For example: had we continued with the agreed contract, and we were the ones to breach a term of the contract, it would not be an affirmative defense for me to say, "That wasn't what we verbally said!"  Contracts are written in ink to prevent this very circumstance from happening.  In conclusion, I am sorry Ms. [redacted] is upset.  I am sorry she feels so negative towards our company.  However, I ask the Revdex.com to take into consideration the volume of work we do... and the number of happy customers we ARE able to please, and render your decision based on the material facts which can be proven.  We had a lot of time, mileage, gas, resources, and use of a very expensive program (xactimate) to work towards a final settlement.  We offered a settlement to Ms. [redacted] WAY BELOW the **% cancellation fee which was contractually agreed upon.  Ms. [redacted] decided not to accept the offer and continued pursuing the matter by slandering our company.  We have chosen to pursue the legal avenue because we are confident our contractual terms were fair, acknowledged, agreed upon, and in force.  The lien filing was going to be filed regardless of any comments made about our company.  Furthermore, we will be submitting Ms. [redacted]'s case to our attorney for representation in this matter to seek any damages caused by the false comments made and the breach of contract.  We value our Revdex.com Rating very much, and would never intentionally harm a customer.  If we felt harm was caused inadvertently, we too would remedy the situation, as we have done many times in the past.  We acknowledge we are not perfect people and mistakes happen.  However, in this situation, the mistake was not our fault.  All actions were a DIRECT result from Ms. [redacted]'s decision to terminate the contract after receiving the benefits of our hard work.Thank you for your time reading our response,Respectfully,[redacted] Frisby - Executive Vice PresidentFrisby Roofing & Construction, LLC.

They didn't address the new holes that they put into our existing roof when they put plastic on it. They also didn't list adding flashing where the window meets the roof, removing nails left in woodwork around windows, window repair and monies due to damage caused to interior from negligence of leaving holes exposed.

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear beI signed a contract with Frisby on 6/27/16 to have a new roof installed, included in the contract was language that the satellite dish that was on the roof prior to them installing the new roof was to be completely removed. Frisby's roofers left that satellite dish hanging by the wires off the roof.Frisby's response also says that they informed me that my gutters were incorrectly installed prior to their doing the job, that is not true. There was nothing wrong with my gutters prior to them tearing off the old shingles . The roof wasn't installed until 9/7/16(began) and 9/8/16(finished). I started contacting Frisby regarding my gutters waving in the air on 9/8/16. They finally sent out Kody H[redacted] to reattach my gutters since I refused to pay the last part of their pay until they were reattached. He came on 9/16/16.  I noticed during the next rain that a couple weeks later. I kept calling Frisby until they finally sen out Ken G[redacted],Claim Specialist, according to his business card on 11/10/16 to line the gutters up properly. I paid for a service and expected it to be done properly not to cause more problems, as a Senior on a fixed income it is really hard to accept unscrupulous business people. Frisby, from my experience cared more about getting paid than making sure that their employees did the job properly. I have never as a customer, been treated the way Sarah(don't know her last name) has spoken to me.

Dear Revdex.com, and potential future customers of our company, As the owner of this company, I take the reviews I receive very serious.  Bad service for my customers is something I absolutely will not tolerate with my staff, and everyone here knows and understands my expectations when dealing...

with my customers.  It literally hurts my heart to hear when customers are upset with my company because it makes me feel like there is something I could have done, or should have done differently to try and keep a negative review out of our company's profile.  My family has been doing this work for over 35 years and we only got to this point from dealing honestly and fairly with our customers.  Our customers are the essential backbone to any business... and to upset your customer purposely is business failure 101.  Having said all of this, I looked deeply into Ms. [redacted]'s file to get answers to her complaint.  Here is my conclusion of how I think my staff handled this matter. When I first read this review from Ms. [redacted], my immediate response was to check our internal note system to see who she had been dealing with. As soon as I started reading the notes, it quickly became apparent to me of why this situation went sideways.  Before I start with my explanation, I must add that we DID IN FACT DO WORK on Ms. [redacted]'s property.  Her siding had blown off the side of her home and we quickly responded to her need for assistance, purchased a tarp, and secured the damage so no water could enter her home... which would obviously create additional damage.  We have documented proof which can be seen by visiting this link: [redacted]  I began reading the notes and saw how much work we put in for Ms. [redacted].  Ms. [redacted] claims she "signed a form to allow us to give her an estimate".  This is not true.  We provide FREE ESTIMATES to everyone and would never ask a customer to sign just to receive an estimate.  That is not how we do business and we caution anyone who deals with a contractor making them sign something just to get an estimate to steer clear of that company.  Due to the damage caused to Ms. [redacted]'s home from the wind storm back in Spring of 2016, we offered a suggestion of filing a homeowner's claim, because we felt this damage was extensive enough to warrant a full replacement of siding on her home.  From the notes and speaking with my staff, she was ecstatic about the possibility of getting insurance to pay for this siding.  We have extensive knowledge and experience dealing with the insurance companies and our knowledge and experience is something we utilize to help cover claims that may other wise be denied had the homeowner dealt with everything on their own. In this particular case, Ms. [redacted] had initially requested an estimate from us.  It was OUR COMPANY who informed her about the insurance possibly being responsible for this damage.  It was at this point, we asked her if she would like us to work on her behalf to help advocate for her on how to file the initial claim, how to deal with the insurance filing process, meeting with the adjuster, as well as following through with ensuring she was given everything she was entitled to from her insurance company.   This involves an immense amount of time and resources from our company, so we gave Ms. [redacted] the option.... she could either have us provide her an estimate and she would be free to choose whatever company she wanted... or she could sign a CONTINGENCY FORM (as seen and signed right here: [redacted]  This contingency form is a promise and guarantee that if we spend all the time helping file the claim, meeting with the adjuster, writing the estimate, coming to mutual terms with the insurance company and/or arguing with the insurance company for coverage in a denial situation, then we would in turn be promised the work for the agreed upon insurance proceeds.  We have this form in place (like 99% of other contracting companies) for this exact reason.  We can not afford to utilize our time, experience, expertise, knowledge, along with all our network of contacts, just to have a homeowner take the insurance proceeds and put the money in their pocket.... or hire their uncle bob to do the work for a cheaper price.  This is actually considered Insurance Fraud.  There is State and Federal law that CLEARLY STATES that a homeowner SHALL NOT PROFIT from a homeowner claim.  In this particular case, the insurance company WAS giving our company a hard time and not wanting to pay for replacement of Ms. [redacted]'s siding.  We have countless documented hours showing the measures we took in order to finally get an approval from the insurance company to re do the siding on her home. This process unfortunately took months to complete... and remember... because we have this agreement in place.... we have not charged a penny to Ms. [redacted].  We know that we will be paid once the insurance company finally cuts the check and the work is completed.  Ms. [redacted] never gave us that opportunity though.  We spent months of hard work, AS WELL AS MONEY, TIME, GAS, RESOURCES, and LOST OPPORTUNITIES from other potential clients, because we were helping Ms. [redacted].  We made sure her home was water tight, and kept her updated through the entire process.  After we FINALLY got insurance to agree to fund the replacement, Ms. [redacted] suddenly became unavailable and stopped communicating with us.  This is a very frustrating feeling as a contractor when you know how many hours you have into a project, and you get this sinking feeling that the homeowner is trying to take their money and profit from their loss.  We began emailing Ms. [redacted].  Ms. [redacted] was opening our emails but was refusing to respond.  Despite all of this.... despite the contract form signed... despite the work we had put into her house.... despite all the hours I spent for my staff to help her out.... I WAS STILL willing to work with her... even though she had breached her side of our agreement and was taking the money we worked hard for.  When I knew Ms. [redacted] had chosen a friend to do the work, despite the prearranged contract (which was NOT an estimate it was a guarantee that if we do all this hard work, we will be guaranteed the job if its approved.... if it wasn't approved, she was obligated to NOTHING.  It was literally a win-win for her), I was frustrated to say the least.  Even though I was frustrated, and technically could have pursued our contractual agreement through courts.... I was willing to peacefully part ways with Ms. [redacted] and let her go her own way.  I offered to settle the matter with her for $500.00.  This was a VERY VERY GENEROUS offer considering the incredible amount of time and resources put forth in her project.  Ms. [redacted] refused to answer us. She refused to give us any acknowledgement whatsoever.  It was only about a week after we filed a lien on the property for the work we did complete, did Ms. [redacted] post this negative review. In conclusion, the point of this story is.... I WANT MY CUSTOMERS HAPPY.  Make no mistake about it.... we work EVERY SINGLE DAY helping people ANY WAY we can so that they have a pleasant experience with us.... it's the reason we have so many positive reviews here!  We ALWAYS try to treat other people how we wish to be treated ourselves...... but unfortunately.... there are some people who you can never please..... who will always want something for free..... who are completely unreasonable by their very nature....  We respectfully prefer not to work with these type of people to begin with.  We love dealing with pleasant, loving, understandable people as our customers.  No one wants to be walked over.... including us.  There comes a point in time where you have to stand up to the people in life who truly are doing you wrong.  If anyone wants to see any additional documents regarding this complaint, we will be happy to share everything with you (except private customer information of course). I hope whoever is reading this looks at the facts provided in our response.  I ask the Revdex.com to dismiss this complaint based on facts submitted.  Please remember, we started this fight FOR Ms. [redacted] on May 10th, 2016..... she was given a payout by her insurance company which we worked for...... we have received NOTHING in return for our work, or services rendered.... and it is now December 19th, 2016.  It was only after we took this measure that we were finally able to get a response from Ms. [redacted].  I'm sorry it's not the response she was hoping for, but we can not work for free... I'm sure everyone can understand this concept.  Respectfully, The Frisby Family.

In response to the complaint filed by Ms. [redacted], it is my intent as the owner of this company, to diligently and thoroughly research the matter and attempt to determine the facts of each individual case.  I care deeply about every single customer that walks through my door,...

so when I get a complaint from someone, I work as hard and objectively as humanly possible to either substantiate and rectify the i**ues, or disprove the allegations and attempt to reason with the customer making the complaint.There are times which my company does fall short of what I know to be high expectations, and when this occurs, I want to make sure my customer is acknowledged, treated as I would like to be treated myself, and work quickly to find a solution to help mitigate the frustration, or in some cases damages, for my homeowner.  My staff is well aware of the expectations and responsibilities I entrust them with.  Any time a customer has an i**ue, it immediately works its way through a chain of command, so that it may be properly addre**ed.  I require my workers to thoroughly document each and every conversation they have with my customers, so that when issues do arise, I may have a clear picture in order to make a good, sound decision, that is fair for all parties involved.  I consider myself a very fair and reasonable person, and I will never hesitate to admit when we fall short and I will always do the right thing to make the customer whole again and as happy as possible.I understand times are difficult right now in this economy and I know myself to be very blessed by the Lord, Christ Jesus.  Our family has been blessed many times over and it is very important to us to live like Christians, always remembering that we are to act with kindness and generosity to our fellow neighbors.  Knowing how blessed we are, my family wanted to find a way to help our fellow neighbors find a way, and a means, to repair or replace items on their home requiring attention.  We know that everyone deserves to have a good and sturdy roof over their head, among other things that help protect their dwellings, such as gutters and siding.  We also know not everyone has thousands and thousands of dollars to pay for these expenses when they come up.  It was this very reason our family wanted to find a way to help those in need.  Because not everyone can secure traditional financing, or credit cards, we thought to ourselves.... "what if we could SELF FINANCE these projects, with the many blessings our Lord has given to us."  In order to do this, we knew we had to make the payments affordable for our customers, forgive any negative behavior shown in their credit history, and we also had to take courage knowing the Lord would protect us from wrong-doers who have it in their mind to utilize our service, then decide to not pay us back the money we have loaned them for their project.  In order for us to forgive past negative credit behavior, I told my staff not to even conduct a Credit Check.  I also will not charge interest to my customers, allowing every dollar paid toward their balance, to come right off their principal amount owed.So, in 2015 alone, we self funded nearly 200 projects from many grateful families, which made the entire decision to spend our own money to help others worth it.  Nearly every single person showed a tremendous amount of gratitude and humbleness as we closed those deals and began scheduling these projects.  I will admit, not every project went as smoothly as we all hope for, but we always did our best to make things right and address i**ues as they came up.  My father started this company nearly 30 years ago and never once had to advertise to keep his family provided for.  I still carry his same mind set to this very day, and it hurts me deeply to see any customer file a complaint on my company.  I spend a lot of time, energy, and money on putting systems in place for my customers who may have issues come up, so that they know we care about them and someone will always be here to fix it, or explain it to them.  Having said all of this, and now knowing how MUCH I genuinely care about my customers, I began digging into Ms. [redacted]'s file for answers.Ms. [redacted] came to us on July 13, 2015, and was looking to have her roof replaced, among other things.  She was very interested about our financing, and was one of the main contributing factors for her coming to see us.  Now I believe that in order to be a successful company, two major things must occur for your customers.  Good Communication, and Complete Transparency. For those of you who are reading this who are interested in seeing the timeline of events for Ms. [redacted], I encourage you to scroll towards the bottom of this explanation and look at our internal notes completed by my staff, each and every time they had a hand in Ms. [redacted]'s project, regardless of how small it may be. I have posted our complete interaction history with the public because transparency is the only way for an individual to draw a logical conclusion about a situation.  After I concluded my internal audit of Ms. [redacted]'s file, and speaking with many individuals of my staff and crew, and from my own personal dealings with Ms. [redacted], I have found no wrong doing on the part of our company.  I will admit there may have been a bit of misunderstanding as it relates to the payment withdrawal's from Ms. [redacted], but even this is hard for me to grasp, because everything relating to our agreement with Ms. [redacted] is in writing, and signed or initialed by Ms. [redacted] herself... including the payment plan agreement (which is attached to this response).I conclude that my staff has followed the expectations and standards that my father and I have set in place, and although I am saddend to know Ms. [redacted] is frustrated with my company, there is little I can do to achieve her desired settlement of a refund.  I believe that we have gone out of our way to try and help Ms. [redacted] and her situation.  She desperately needed a roof on her house, and we were able to find a way to make it work with her budget. I believe Ms. [redacted] first became upset with my company when her first payment, in November of 2015, did not clear and was returned as Non Sufficient Funds (By her own admission she states this in her complaint).  This is where I do agree there may have been some misunderstanding on whether or not her payment was to be taken out upon signing, or to wait until the scheduled due date of November, 5th.  Because we schedule projects in order of deposits recieved, and because of how much Ms. [redacted] was in need of a roof replacement, she had given permission to run the payment so that she may get on the schedule 4 days sooner.  (I am aware she disputes this fact, but none the less, we still continued to work with her.  We waived all fees associated with this failed transaction, and despite entering into a 10 year deal with Ms. [redacted], and her first payment failing even before starting her project, I chose to overlook it because I wanted to help Ms. [redacted] and her situation)  Please remember, there are no banks funding us the money to complete her project.  I am literally taking the money out of my family's own pocket, and paying for the labor and material up front, leaving me vulnerable to a potential loss of thousands of dollars, on her project alone... not to mention the other 200 deals we self funded.  Additionally, I allowed this transaction to proceed for Ms. [redacted] without even evaluating her credit.After this transaction failed, it is clear Ms. [redacted] was very upset with us and it never seemed to get any better from that point forward.  I openly apologize to Ms. [redacted] for this causing an overdraft to her account, but I believe we did everything we could to try and do what we thought was the right thing, at that time.  (That was to waive the fees we charge for NSF transactions, and to allow the financing of her project and not terminating the deal at this point before we even started)  Quite frankly, this is the first time I have heard that she is still upset with us, by reading her Revdex.com complaint.Ms. [redacted] has also filed a complaint on us regarding the damage to the fence of her "hogs/pigs", which has allowed them to escape.  Although this is difficult to prove or disprove, we do have photographs of the property before we began and after we finished.  To the best of our knowledge, we did not do any damage to her fence.  Furthermore, her first complaint that her pigs were even loose was on December 2nd, 2015.  Our crew finished her project on October 26th, 2015.  So even if we DID damage her fence, which I find highly unlikely due to the fact that we have several jobs to do, and do not have time to horseplay and goof off on job sites, then why was there over a MONTH that had gone by and no mention of the fence had ever been brought to our attention.Although Ms. [redacted] has written some pretty strong allegations about our company, I think it's also important to note that her 2nd payment failed as well, showing Non Sufficient Funds (NSF).  This occurred on December 9th, 2015.  Despite the monthly failed payment of $179.00 for the second month in a row, I still continued to work with Ms. [redacted] and allowed her time to get cash together to settle the failed transaction.  By this time, we had done her entire roof, paid the labor, paid the material, and we have only collected $358 dollars from Ms. [redacted], spread out over 2 months, both of which had failed payments.  Yet I still continue to work with her in a professional and non condescending manner.  On December 15th, when we called to ask [redacted] about her second failed transaction, she was rude to my office girls and made the comment "I knew that's the only reason you were calling me".  Yet again, I still waived her fees for her that we were charged by our bank.On top of all of this, despite us denying that we ever damaged her fence, I made the decision to have one of my crew go over to her house and fix her fence for her, at my expense.  This occurred on January 5th, 2016.  Shortly after my crew arrived I recieved a phone call from my foreman that said Ms. [redacted] was rude with them and asked why they were there.  When he responded politely to her, she became even more rude and nasty and told them to get off her property, then told her daughter to close and lock the door.  Please keep in mind, at this time, no Revdex.com complaint was ever filed.... I was just doing what I thought was the right thing to do, even IF I didn't believe my company was at fault.  Sometimes it's better to bite your tongue and pay to have the i**ues addre**ed, EVEN IF you are 99.99999% sure the issue is either NON EXISTENT, or not our fault.  Even by trying to do this for Ms. [redacted], we were unable to find, or fix any damaged fence, before she demanded we left her property.When Ms. [redacted] then called about her drainage pipe, I told the girls that obviously nothing we are doing is going to please her.  Her complaints cooincidently come up right around the time her monthly payment is due.  I am not saying she is wrong, but nothing I have found has led me to believe my company is at fault here. In regards to her complaint about the urination on her property, I am not able to confirm or deny this happened.  I did speak with my crew and they told me they drove to a store like they always do if they need to use the restroom.  The adamently denied doing this and this is a violation of my expectations and standards. Although I can not determine who is telling the truth regarding this matter, I find it very hard to believe my guys would lie to me.  I know them all very well and they have worked for me a very long time.  I pay them well and they know my standards.  I am frustrated these allegations would be made publically against my company, especially if it's not true.  I do not tolerate this behavior from my crew.In conclusion, I am sorry I am not able to offer any solution sought by Ms. [redacted].  It is not feasible for us to incur these cost, as we have already incurred many many many thousands of dollars in labor and material to complete her project.  If I knew, or had reason to know, that her allegations were credible, I would act without hesitation in providing Ms. [redacted] with her desired resolution.  Unfortunately, I do not think this to be fair to me and my company, and Ms. [redacted]'s b**avior needs to stop.  It is getting out of control.  I will keep Ms. [redacted] in my prayers and hope she finds the peace to forgive my company of the anger she holds against us.Respectfully,[redacted] - Executive Vice President------------------------------------------------------------------As stated above, I am pasting all of our notes with Ms. [redacted], from day 1 of contact.  These notes are UNEDITED and remain in their ORIGINAL STATE._________________________________________CUSTOMER TRANSACTION AND NOTE HISTORY_________________________________________[redacted]Notes are in order of MOST RECENT CONTACT First and continue towards the INITIAL CONTACTat the bottom.  For a better understanding of flow, please start reading from the bottom, up to this text.--------------------------------------------------------------------- [red... 1 2016 7:02Customer Filed Revdex.com Complaint.

But she said that her daughter asked them and they said they were there to fix her pig stall gate and if that was the case she would have liked to have been notified. She said she had it fixed the day the pigs got out. She told her daughter to tell them to leave and to lock the door. So they left. She was also not happy that the payment was proce**ed through her credit card and not her checking account. She only wanted one payment proce**ed through the credit card. I told her it was an automatic payment proce** and if she didn't let us know that, then we wouldn't know to change it. She said she told the person that changed the credit card information. I told [redacted] to change the method of payment and she said she would. [redacted]Jan 5 2016 11:36 AMJanuary payment proce**ed through Paysimple.

Thank you. [redacted]Dec 15 2015 2:16 PM[redacted] replied to the PS payment and said she only authorized $179.00. I wrote and email and had [redacted] send it, telling her that there is a 3% proce**ing fee, see attached Payment Plan Agreement. I told her that we waived the $30 fee for her payment being returned.

Interested in our financing. Available Thursday afternoon this week. We scheduled for 2pm on Thursday. I added to [redacted]'s google calendar. (ML) -------------------------------------------------------------BEGINNING OF CUSTOMER NOTES ABOVE.  -------------------------------------------------------------[redacted]FOR Revdex.com ADMINISTRATION[redacted]It is my opinion that Ms. [redacted] desperately needed her roof fixed, but lacked the financial means to do it.  I believe she took advantage of what we had to offer, but was frustrated with her own situation knowing she does not even have the $179 monthly payment that she agreed to (as evident by her two failed transactions).  Knowing that she does not have the money, she is looking for any and every excuse to not have to pay us for all the hard work we have done.  She has a professionaly installed roof which looks great and has passed inspection.  The clean up met, or exceeded my expectations and I ask the Revdex.com dismiss her complaint against our company.  We work very hard to maintain a good relationship with all of our customers.  There are some people that no matter what you do for them, they will never be pleased.  Ms. [redacted] is just that.  All I can do is sincerely pray for Ms. [redacted], and hope her situation gets better.  I am very sorry that she feels the way she does about my company.Thank you for listening.[redacted] - Executive Vice PresidentTo see before photos of Ms. [redacted]'s property, please click this link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gu5sxzsifyufcft/AABnaOPc6PSL0n2EXY_EVZ8ua?dl=0

Dear Mr. & Mrs. [redacted], Revdex.com, & The Revdex.com Community, As always, we take our reputation very serious and we hate when customers feel so upset they feel the need to post their experiences on the internet.  I have reviewed the complaint made by the [redacted]' family and have had a chance...

to speak with our staff regarding the matter.  This job was one where our company agreed to do partial work on a piece of the [redacted]' property, and was not contracted to do the entire roof replacement.  This is what makes these types of jobs so difficult and is one reason we try to steer clear of these types of agreements.  Inevitability there seems to always be an area that becomes unclear between the parties on whether or not that was "contracted work".  This situation almost always turns into a "well... you touched it last" situation... so it must be your fault! The owner of our company, Dave Frisby, made contact with Ms. [redacted] when we first learned she was upset... and even tried to reason with her and her husband to come to an agreement on some sort of scope of work to fix the issues at hand, regardless of whose fault they were.  On many occasions we attempted to reason with Ms. [redacted] and the owner said he would just come out and fix the areas of concern she had, but Ms. [redacted] insisted those items be put in writing, and made it difficult for us to address the issues.  After several additional conversations back and forth, our company and Ms. [redacted] were finally able to temporarily agree to work things out.  We are aware the Revdex.com will likely be updated with Ms. [redacted] response on whether or not she is happy with the final results, but we are certainly trying to make her and her family happy.  We are not always perfect, but we always try to make things right.... even if we don't think they are always our fault.  This was a nasty situation of "you touched it last" in our book, but the important take away here is that we are still willing to work with Ms. [redacted] to try and make her happy.  We hope her follow up Revdex.com response reflects the same! Respectfully, The Frisby Family

Ms. [redacted] did contract with us to replace her roof June 27th 2016. We were notified of an issue with the gutter not being attached properly. We sent a technician out to correct the problem. We put the gutter back exactly how it was prior to the roof replacement. We let the customer know that it...

was initially installed incorrectly by her gutter technician but she wanted us leave it how it was initially configured. Ms. [redacted] called us back almost one year later stating she was having the same issue. We again reminded her it was installed incorrectly and we already fixed it twice as a courtesy. You can also see in the photos that her cable wires are helping hold down the gutter, which is not recommened. We added additional caulking around her chimney to correct any leaking and the customer was satisfied. The stucco on the home was damaged prior to the roof replacement. We have provided before and after photos of this area. We let Ms. [redacted] know that there was exisitng damage to the stucco and if we removed and replaced the old flashing in this area, further damage would occur. We are more than willing to correct the flashing, however, Ms. [redacted] must sign a waiver of liabilty, as we will not be responsible for any further damage to the stucco. With the current condition of the stucco it is not in the best interest to remove and replace the flashing and we advise against it. We are willing to work with the customer to come to a resolution.

The majority of Mr. Frisby's response is lies. Starting with the fact they he was not consoling me on the phone he was trying to bully me into paying money that wasn't owed to them. As you can see the "contract" has absolutely no information and differs from my copy.  How can you agree to something with no price, measurements or statement of work to be done. The lien was placed as an immediate retaliation of the review I placed with the Revdex.com. As you can tell by the date the review was placed, the threatening text message I recieved after my review was sent to them and the date on the lien. You can clearly see the lien was placed after the company recieved the review. The lien was also placed with no work being done or agreed upon. As far as the insurance goes they denied the estimate and told me to get estimates from other companies due to the fact they first quoted close to $[redacted] and then increased the estimate to $[redacted]. The insurance company said that was completely unrealistic for the size of our home. The contract the insurance approved was not their estimate. It was one of the other 3 I had sent to them. As far as me pocketing money we ended up paying our share of out of pocket expenses. He has accused me of some pretty serious offenses without any information. He has tried to demolish my credibility with his lies. I really just do not want to see this happen to any other innocent home owners. I am truly hoping this ends with the wrongs this company has done to us and doesnt happen to anyone else. How can someone get away with threatening a customer repeatedly after misleading them into a "contract". He has done so via telephone, text and the response on here. After my experience I feel there is no way Frisby Construction deserves a good rating let alone an A+.

Good Morning Revdex.com, & to our past, potential, and future customers,I would first like to start out by stating I am sorry this homeowner feels the way he does about our company, but I can certainly tell you there is far more to the story than what has been presented by Mr. [redacted].  I would also...

like to say that for every negative complaint a company gets, there are countless happy customers that do not necessary take the time to post their experiences. Please take this into consideration before drawing a final conclusion about our company.  We do in fact care very deeply for our customers and in fact, without our clients, we would not be where we are to this day.  We consider ourselves very blessed and fortunate for all our customers who have supported our family owned company through the years.  Having said all this, I will now address the complaint at hand.Mr. [redacted] did in fact pay us $[redacted] to repair a bad piece of plywood and shingles which caused active leaking into his mobile home.  Upon assessing the repair area, our company foreman, and company staff both advised him a repair is not going to be sufficient to prevent all the damage that was continuing to occur.  We informed Mr. [redacted] he desperately needed a new roof due to the horrible installation by the previous company.  We even specifically showed him the areas which were going to continue leaking after we fixed the area of concern we first spoke about together.  (When we fixed this area, the water stopped leaking here, but continued to another bad place in his roof, just as we predicted would happen, and told him would happen.  The only difference was, the new area of leaking was not in a critical place over their bath tub as the existing one was at the time.)  Mr. [redacted] acknowledged this to be true and agreed to move forward with the scope of work, and said he would save his money to fix more of it later.  (We have documentation of this fact in multiple areas of our documentation).  When we finished the scope of work agreed upon, both Mr. [redacted] and his wife, [redacted], were extraordinarily happy with our crew foreman, our staff, and our overall company professionalism.  So much so, they posted the following Revdex.com review on April 22, 2015 (Which can be seen by scrolling through our positive reviews) "We had to have some work done on our roof recently and called Frisby Construction to do the job. They came right out, assessed the damage, and fully explained to us what needed to be done. Everyone we dealt with was extremely professional. The gentlemen came out to do the repairs, knocked on the door and introduced himself, explained again what he would be doing and went to work. When the job was finished he again knocked and explained fully to me what he did, what he encountered while he was on the roof and could see inside, and suggested some further repairs in the future. We had had some shotty work done in the past and he was quick to notice and bring to our attention some serious issues. He not only told us about the issues, but SHOWED us the problems as he found them. This is an honest company with honest employees. I was informed of everything. Not only was the job done right and done promptly, but my home was left in better condition than when they arrived. All the debris from the job was removed and even vaccuumed up. From beginning to end I was extremely satisfied and impressed with this company and would definitely recommend their work to everyone I know!This customer had a POSITIVE experience with this business.This customer WOULD recommend the business to a friend, family member, neighbor or colleague.by [redacted] M. on 4/22/2015 | Submit a Customer ReviewWas this review helpful to you? YesNo1 person found this review helpful ."After reading this review, it should be readily apparent that we did in fact perform the agreed upon scope of work to the best of our ability and tried our best to ensure our customer was happy, just like we try to do with all of our customers.  The issues began to arise after heavy rainfall months later, and the husband, Mr. [redacted], thought the new area of leaking should have been fixed at the initial time of the first scope.  I tried to explain to Mr. [redacted] that we discussed this very thing would happen, and that he needed a new roof (As shown in the photos attached).  Mr. [redacted] called on a Monday and asked us to come back out to his home and look at his roof again.  He was told that he would be placed on our schedule and we would in fact send someone over to his home to go over the work and area of leaking again, even though we didn't even have to do this.  The same week, two days later, on Wednesday, Mr. [redacted] called our office and was BELLIGERENT towards my office staff.  So much so that he had the young lady shaking who took the phone call.  I immediately drove over to his home in an attempt to find out why he was talking to our staff as he was and to look at the areas he was complaining about.  I was upset when I went over to his home, but I maintained my professionalism to the best of my ability.  Mr. [redacted] demanded a refund and said we did an awful job.  Mind you, the review above was submitted, and the complaint to our office was over a month after we had already completed the initial scope. My father, [redacted] Frisby, Sr. also stopped what he was doing to come over to Mr. [redacted]'s home.  (We recorded this entire encounter for our own protection, and have a copy of the recording if needed).  Mr. [redacted] refused to let my father on the roof and told us we needed to leave his property, that he was calling the news on us.  Mr. [redacted] appeared to be intoxicated at the time and I also smelled alcohol on his breath. I am experienced in this field as I am also a police officer of 11 years.  My father and I spent approximately 45 minutes to an hour at his home without coming to a resolution, due to Mr. [redacted]'s belligerent behavior.  The conversations ended, and this is where everything was left, until the complaint was filed.Here is a copy of our log with the [redacted]'s. (We keep the log of activity for all of our customers as their project progresses).2:30 PM 3/12/2015  [redacted] drives past our office and would like to get an estimate for a repair to his roof. He has an active leak in the left rear corner, approx 4x4 foot area. He is available Monday, Wednesday or Thursday after 1:00pm. I text [redacted], he is not available today, however he can do it on Monday (SS)2:02 PM 3/13/2015  I asked [redacted] to contact [redacted] and confirm the appointment for Monday March 16th after 1:00pm and we can call when we are on our way. (SS)4:22 PM 3/19/2015  [redacted] just called and said he called last week for someone to come out and look at his roof and he hasn't heard back from anyone. I apologized and let him know I would get his information over to someone so they would call and schedule with him right away. (ML) 4:29 PM 3/19/2015 Called customer and scheduled him next thursday btw 1:30-3:30 with [redacted], told him that I will call him Thursday morning to confirm the appt. (AM)3/26/15 Met with Mr. [redacted] at his residence.  Assessed his issue.  He agreed to meet me at the office where he gave a $[redacted] deposit for his repair. He signed a proposal and received a receipt for his deposit. We need to address his issue soon that way he is not dealing with a leak anymore. (TM)2:17 PM 3/27/2015  Rcvd deposit, updated JPC & BS & LS and submitted a PO Form into Production (SS)3:06 PM 3/30/2015  Assigned P.O. #. (SR)2:19 PM 4/1/2015  Texted [redacted] and asked him to place contract/estimate in file.  I can't schedule if I don't know what it is. (SR)1:35 PM 4/6/2015  Called because his roof repair isn't done and his roof is leaking and wants it done before the rain, said that it's been 2 weeks and still nothing. Told him that I will give [redacted] a call and see what we can do. (AM)4:30 PM 4/6/2015  Emailed online profile link. (ML)4:54 PM 4/15/2015  Called Mr. [redacted] to let him know that we haven't forgotten about him and production has informed me that they are going to try and get out to him within the next week. I told him when they let me know when they are sending the foreman out I will call him to let him know. LMOM. (ML)5:33 PM 4/17/2015  Had [redacted] let customer know that his repair will be made tomorrow. (SR)5:23 PM 4/20/2015  [redacted] did do this repair over the weekend.  I let [redacted] know. (SR)3:35 PM 4/21/2015  Mr. [redacted] came in to pay his final balance. He said [redacted] was REALLY REALLY GOOD. He said the people who roofed his roof didn't flash it right. [redacted] told him he could fix it and Mr. [redacted] is willing to pay him. Because "[redacted] IS AWESOME!" (ML)4:06 PM 4/21/2015 Rcvd final check, processed as an echeck and emailed Mel a copy. I scanned in the copy to the file and updated the JPC & BS & LS. SS)2:18 PM 5/5/2015  Asked [redacted] to give [redacted] a call and see what it was he was wanting [redacted] to do at his property. (SS)2:49 PM 5/5/2015  Spoke to [redacted]. He said [redacted] was going to send [redacted] out to do the touch up work on his flashing around the fireplace and vent stacks for free if he left a Revdex.com review. He said he wants [redacted] back out. He is AWESOME. Also would like a price on taking off and replacing vinyl siding. 3-4 pieces. He has the pieces and stuff to replace them just needs someone to do it. I told him I would ask SS if [redacted] can do that, I believe we have a per man hour rate that we may charge for labor work like that but I'm not sure. He said he would come right up and pay us afterward for it because he knows [redacted] won't take money. He is available all day this Wednesday & Thursday. Next week he is available Monday, Wednesday & Thursday. (ML) 11:56 AM 5/7/2015  Saved work order to file, assigned a #. (SR)8:21 AM 5/14/2015  Emailed customer to let him know we have not forgotten about him. I am waiting to hear from production on when we can send [redacted] out and thanked him for his patience. (ML)11:33 AM 6/2/2015 Emailed Mr. [redacted] about financing a new roof because he needs one very badly. (AM)4:17 PM 6/25/2015 [redacted] called about the financing estimate he received. I explained it to him and he said that the shingles are fine and doesn't want a replacement but wants the inside drywall and ceiling repaired where the water had leaked down. Scheudled for Thursday July 2 with [redacted]. (AM)1:28 PM 7/20/2015 [redacted] called and said that the plywood was not replaced and shingles were just put down and the water from rain yesterday poured in through the ceiling and damaged the wall in the bathroom. I told him that I will talk to production and get [redacted] right back out there. He was extremely mean and rude to me. [redacted] overhead the conversation. (AM)1:35 PM 7/20/2015 I am heading out to speak with Mr. [redacted] in person (JF)9:00 AM 8/21/2015 Mel advised me of a Revdex.com complaint.  She said he has called the news on us. I told her I would handle it and respond to the review . (JF)9:55 AM 8/21/2015 I called [redacted] and left a message for him to please return my call on my cell. (dfsr)END OF LOG:I am not sure what this customer expects us to do at this point.  He needs a new roof.  He only paid $[redacted] to do work to stop the leaking over his bathtub.  This work cost our company approximately $[redacted] in labor and material.  We made a total of $[redacted] profit on this job.  I believe this is a situation of where the customer is accusing us of "you touched it last, so it's your fault."  If you look at our notes, you can see where we are being blamed for damage that had already occurred in his home prior to us even touching it.  As stated, in the following note, you can see Mr. [redacted] acknowledges the damages nearly a month in advance, before he complains that the damage is our fault.4:17 PM 6/25/2015 [redacted] called about the financing estimate he received. I explained it to him and he said that the shingles are fine and doesn't want a replacement but wants the inside drywall and ceiling repaired where the water had leaked down. Scheudled for Thursday July 2 with [redacted]. (AM)1:28 PM 7/20/2015 [redacted] called and said that the plywood was not replaced and shingles were just put down anded the wall in the the water from rain yesterday poured in through the ceiling and damaged bathroom. I told him that I will talk to production and get [redacted] right back out there. He was extremely mean and rude to me. [redacted] overhead the conversation. (AM)I ask that the Revdex.com dismiss this complaint as we have done all we could for this customer.  We believe him to be irrational and trying to place blame on our company for something we did not do.  It is unfortunate that Mr. [redacted] would do this to us and put us in this position, but we try our best to do right by each and every one of our customers, including Mr. [redacted].  We feel we have accomplished our goal of doing right by Mr. [redacted].  We are sorry he does not see it the same way.Respectfully,[redacted] FrisbyClick here to view all the files associated with Mr. [redacted]'s project:

Revdex.com:
I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID [redacted], and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint.  For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below. For the record I don't do lies. Whomever this response from Frisby is from states I would not "allow" them on my property. BOLD FACE LIE. I graciously allowed Dave Frisby on my property promptly at his request. He also states he was dumbfounded by our issues and said he had no idea. When he looked at the less than stellar work they did he would say I'll do this.. I would say what about this... He would say oh I'll take care of that too. Then he actually told me my point of view from the angle I was standing was what caused several feet of shingles to look like they were laid improperly. Frisby roofing just sent an email with specifics on what they were going to fix. I have yet to respond to the email however there is a few things that are of importance that are not included. I will gladly submit pics if that is something the Revdex.com would like to have.

Dear Revdex.com, You have requested a follow up to our initial response to this complaint.  Here is what we are doing as a company to try and help The [redacted] family during their time of frustration.  As we mentioned before, we are not admitting fault as we do not believe this to be caused by our company, but for sake of not arguing the matter any longer and trying to make the [redacted] family happy with us... we are going to do the following for them:We are going to wrap the wood trim to cover the step flashing we installed.We are going to install new flashing and shingles at the base of the roof as we see fit and neededWe will remove and replace the lower rows of shingles on the front to ensure they align properlyWe will straighten the ridge caps as we see fit and neededWe will also remove and replace any broken and or missing shingles that we come across.Please remember, this contract was not for a full roof replacement and only called for a partial area to be done.  We want Mr. & Mrs. [redacted] to be happy and our owner has agreed to do this stuff for them free of charge, as well as waive the initial invoice which was sent that originally caused Ms. [redacted] to get upset, as stated in her initial complaint.  So at the conclusion of this situation, Ms. [redacted] will have the above work completed in addition to the original contracted work, as well as have the outstanding balance on her account removed.  There will be no charge for the work stated in our response.We feel we are going well above and beyond the call of duty by doing this and we hope the Revdex.com can see our genuine concern for wanting to make this customer happy.  We are sorry it had to come as a result of negative feedback, but in our defense, our owner, David Frisby, did try and do these things for The [redacted] family before, but she did not want us on her property.  It was only after she got an invoice that she posted the negative review... so please take this fact into consideration before rendering a final decision for or against our company.  We are trying to do the right thing regardless of cost or fault in the matter.
