    My wife and I had to check on the siding every day. We went out and saw a side that was not straight so we asked for it to be removed and reinstalled which the workers did. The back was done horrible and again asked the siding to be removed and reinstalled correctly. That was 4 years ago. Then Sal charged us $1000 more than the contract because we asked not to install 2 bathroom windows. He said if we didn't pay he would put a lien on the house. Recently we wanted to have the storm windows in the front replaced BUT the screws for the storm windows are covered by the vynal siding. I called Sal twice last week asking for a reply, as of yet there has been not reply back to me. I downloaded pictures of 3 windows but there are 6 windows in total. The work was done 4 years ago but didn't notice their error until now.

    Broken shingles and broken asbestos tiles.

    They came and quoted us $35,000 for an asbestos shingle and residing job. I asked multiple times about their qualifications to do it, and they said that they had done it before and would work with a company to have it done according to code. They took our deposit and then waited months. They clearly didn't purchase the materials at the time, because they then started trying to renegotiate as time came closer. They told us that they would start the last week of July 2022 and said we needed to be out of the house. We planned a vacation for a week. As we are coming back, they call to tell us that they didn't do anything and would be there the next week. So we scrambled to find a place to stay for another week. This pattern repeated for a month. Finally, they say that they are ready to start. They finally came, so again, we left town. Before they would start they wanted the second of three payments. We are driving back and I get a call from Environmental Protection because they have been informed that they have been called because the team that was taking off the asbestos was not doing it correctly. Come to find out, NO they did not bring in an asbestos removal company, nor did they file any of the permits. Enviormental protection shut down the site after testing, because they had contaminated the surrounding area with asbestos. We have two small children who would have been playing in that if it hadn't been caught. At first, they took full responsibility, then the state said they were going after them and BSE decided that they shouldn't have to pay for the cleanup of their mess. So they just stopped responding to everyone, including the DEP. I had to sign a contract with the environmental clean-up company that I would pay if BSE didn't. At this point, we have been out of our house for 3 months. BSE left us with the bill and the environmental clean-up company is still hounding us to finish paying them. We were paying for a lot of hotels because our larger family only had so much availability and the DEP still had our house as a hazard zone. At this point, we had paid BSE $23k, had promised to pay $12k for the cleanup, spent atleast $10k in out-of-house accomidation, and we still couldn't move home, let alone have siding . BSE left our house in a state that was not weather-resistant. We were lucky because there were old, broken, wooden shingles underneath so it was not completely at the mercy of the elements. But as you can see in some of the photos they uncovered holes into the house and left it that way with no cover. Now we had to find a new contractor and start the process all over again. As almost 10 months had gone by, and this was during the height of the supply-chain issues, the price for the same siding had shot way up. Now we had to take out a $29k loan to actually get siding on the house. We are currently in legal proceedings against them, but they ACTUALLY are based in NH our attorney thinks we will only get $10K back from the construction fraud fund. All of which we will have to use to pay off the clean-up company. Also when our attorney was trying to serve papers, he found out that their listed residence is fraudulent. They put the address of someone else in their town so that legal papers can't be served. Thankfully, the person has gotten sick of all of the legal papers being delivered to their house, they now call all attorneys and give them the correct address. I honestly don't know how much more despicable these people could be. In the end, I am glad that they didn't put the siding on, because the folks that we did have do it did a great job, which from the other reviews, BSE doesn't do. I wish we had just gone with Rhinoside from the beginning. David, the owner, was amazing. At one point, he even had some of his folks pull down and replace a WHOLE wall of siding because he wasn't satisfied, and he did it on Rhinoside's own dime. I wouldn't have known there was a problem for years most likely. Dave from Rhinoside even offered to install a new sliding glass door that BSE broke. He and two guys worked for hours to install it correctly and only charged $100 for labor. He even had me buy the door directly from the supplier to save money. Rhinoside is the hero here.

    Frank came out quickly for a very competitive estimate, was flexible with the days I wanted to start the job and sent his crew out on the day they promised.

    5/25/22 UPDATE - Michael and I had a very productive phone call about the issue. He helped clear…read moreup the misunderstanding, and then worked with me on finding a path forward. Matthew came today and performed the removal/reattachment work at no charge. I'm very appreciative of how they helped get this issue resolved! They helped turn an unfortunate situation around and. Nice work, and thank you! We added a bathroom in 2016 and our contractor selected Image Glassworks for the shower door work. Initially we were really impressed with the customer service, the look, and quality. Then in 2020 I reached out to ask for some help with the shower door no longer closing as it should and the frame pulling away from the wall (see photos). They got right back to me with a quote, suggesting a complete removal and reattachment. A bit expensive and I didn't understand why the frame would pull away from the wall like that, but I was prepared to pay to get this taken care of. Then COVID happened and we were no longer in a position to do the work. I reached out again in 2021 when our circumstances had changed and when the problem with the frame and door had gotten so bad that the door wouldn't close at all. I tried over the course of more than a month to get them to help (multiple phone calls, promised return calls that never happened, and emails to both Michael and Matthew that were not replied to) but they ghosted me, and now I am stuck with a shower door that I have to wedge closed. Very impressed with their initial work but very disappointed in their after-sales service.

    Like others, my initial experience was good.

No issues and looked good when done. Cold weather came and there was condensation, then when weather cooled further, ice, on the glass, inside the house. I had never had this issue before, nor was it ever seen with the "partner" window (they are a pair on either side of a bay window), so I tried to get it resolved. Months of back and forth later, someone came out and caulked the exterior of the glass (2 visits). No other visits, discussion, or attempt to remedy e.g. check on vacuum seal or anything else. First cold weather snap, condensation inside again. Emails after this point ignored, always "in a meeting" when I call, calls not returned. Michael finally left a voicemail that it must be the frame, which is not what they deal with, so nothing more to be done and has since ghosted me. I sent photos showing they replaced the metal interior frame between the panes (no idea why), so it's not just the glass they dealt with and they removed and reinstalled that as part of the repair. I have called twice since then, but no response 3 days later. 12 months of aggravation and no resolution. They just abdicate responsibility and have no interest in resolving the issue that occurred while the window was being repaired. I definitely don't recommend this business.

It's now mid-November, and not only are the windows still not installed, but the installation date was just pushed again to mid-December--almost five months after signing. We specifically reviewed the timeline because we wanted this done before it gets cold. We have booked dog daycare which has to be rescheduled, it affects our schedules, plans, and will massively impact our work, which is WFH. The measuring process was chaotic. The person sent to measure always gave last-minute notice and had to come out multiple times because they kept miscounting the number of windows--always short by one. Communication throughout this process has been terrible. You have to constantly follow up for updates; Zen never reaches out proactively or takes ownership of delays. Every update comes only after you chase them. When we brought up these issues, the company's response was to blame the original sales rep, who is "no longer with them." Convenient excuse, but the timeline and promises were in writing. Zen has taken no accountability for the misinformation or poor service. Yes, they may be cheaper than competitors, but you truly get what you pay for--unreliable timelines, lack of professionalism, and customer service that's downright egregious. Buyer beware!
