Stay FAR away from CMR Construction and Roofing. They are a SCAM! They will tell you they can get you a new roof, will submit the insurance claim for you, and all you have to pay is the deductible from the insurance settlement. They say...you are getting a brand new roof for pennies on the dollar! Sounds great, doesn't it? Well is not, it's a SCAM. What CMR will not tell you when you sign up with them, they will take your ENTIRE settlement check! That's right, no matter how much you get for your claim they will take it all and smugly say they deserve it for "all they did for you" . They will never give you and estimate for the cost to replace your roof, either before or after the claim is settled. They will say "you don't need an estimate...the insurance claim adjuster's settlement document IS the estimate...we use the same software they use to generate the estimate". Now, in my case the settlement check was $85,000. I got 3 estimates from reputable roofing companies in my area to replace me roof, and all three averaged around $35k.
That's what a reputable company with good business ethics would charge...but not CMR!!! No No No, they will TAKE the entire claim of $85K, still demand you paid them the deductible ($9000 in my case), and sub contract out the job to another roofer to throw a crap roof on, pay to sub-contractor like $30K to do the job, and pocket the rest of the settlement claim, in my case $64,000!
In any other roofing universe, this extra money would be yours to keep .do more repairs to your home, etc. But CMR will tell you "you cannot keep the excess money, you are not allowed to "profit" from a insurance settlement claim". While this statement is correct, in this case that is absolutely a lie! The settlement is YOUR money!!! It's what they paid to make you whole to satisfy your damages to your property. If you do your due diligence and can get all the repair work done or less than your settlement amount, that extra is YOURS to keep, period...end of story. But you won't have to worry about any of that if you sign up with CMR, they will take all the money off your hands so you'ill not have to worry about such silly things. PLUS, they will proclaim you should be thankful to them for all they have done...and also tell all of your friends about them and what great guys they are!
So here is the bottom line, if you need a new roof and want a company to "help" get your claim for a new roof, charge you $94,000 for a roof you should have only paid $30,000 for, only get a 5 year workmanship warranty when most others will give you 10 years, and help to contribute to the reason we are all paying super high insurance homeowners premiums, then CMR Construction & Roofing are your guys!. If you do sign up with these lying, underhanded, misleading, unethical and immoral people don't say that I didn't warn you!
For the life of my, do not know how they are able get away with it all. I hope some good and hungry lawyer is out there and will read this, and launch a class action lawsuit against these scam artists! read more
