Worked with Luke Hansen, worst experience of my life! Be careful. My agent sent this company out…read morefor a damaged roof. He quickly said the damage was significant, and made the insurance claim sound like a slam dunk. I signed up with Buildtec that day (big mistake for me). State Farm denied the claim and Luke said he would work to get everything resolved. After he said that, Luke and Buildtec ghosted me. After weeks of no communication, Luke finally told me we were waiting on an "acknowledgement" that was not in fact pending with State Farm (I checked). After doing my own research, I told Luke to request a second inspection, which he agreed with me on, but then never acted. Luke then told me we needed to tell State Farm Claims the "magic words." Obviously, he didn't know the "magic words" since again, nothing happened. My sense was that State Farm Claims knew Luke didn't know what he was doing so they made the smart decision to kick it back on Buildtec, knowing that they had no answers. I finally started to receive excuses from Luke once I repeatedly complained to my referring insurance agency. The whole ordeal was embarrassing from a professional level. I'm shocked I never heard from Adam (the owner) to apologize for this mess. That wouldn't fix the mistakes but would have gone a long way in showing that Buildtec cared about its customers. I also had multiple other contractors out to look at my roof. They had a very different opinion than Luke (not to mention his estimate was beyond ridiculous, although I understand the game). The only thing I got out of this was having to politely chuckle at Luke's joke to the claims department when we filed the claim "Hanson spelled the right way [wait for their response], s-o-n." I should have known at that point that he had no idea what he was doing. Don't fall into the trap like I did.

Without promising anything, they claimed that we had enough damage to our roof that we might qualify, so I gave our insurance company a call. Three months later, we were getting a brand new roof installed! The team they had installing our roof did a fantastic job! They were quick and fairly quiet considering the scope of work, and they took EXCELLENT care to make sure that none of our pepper plants got harmed in the process! Not to mention, they went above and beyond and fixed the rotted-out parts of our roof and covered the areas where we had leaking issues with extra waterproofing! All this in time for some heavy rain!! I am grateful that they knocked on our door! God is good!

I reached out for service to my chimney, in Minneapolis. I can't actually speak poorly about the…read moreconstruction work this company provides, because I didn't get that far. I had some odd interactions with the reception staff. I called to schedule an estimate, and as we were setting up a time, she asked me about whether my "husband" would be there. It was really startling (I'm an out lesbian). I chose to handle it with humor, so I laughed and answered, "Hon, I don't have a husband." I got the impression she disliked that. I thought about just canceling the estimate, as I wouldn't want to work with a company that might be unfriendly to LGBTQ customers. But I figured it was just an estimate, and I could see if I got a good vibe from the person who actually arrived. The estimate was scheduled yesterday at 11:30am. I'm not a morning person, and will generally sleep till 10am or later. But my phone rang before 8:30am, which was not ideal! It turned out to be a receptionist from Lindus construction. I said something about the time (and to be fair, probably sounded pretty grumpy), and she basically began arguing, saying that they were open (so I guess I should be on the same timetable?), and that she hadn't specifically been told not to call me before 9am. The reason she was calling was that they wanted to reschedule due to weather, which was fine, but I figured, you know -- this company might be kind of right-wing/ not queer-friendly, and certainly doesn't seem to be sleep friendly, and those are two things I cherish (LGBTQ people, and sleep). So I just canceled. Adding an additional note in response to the reply from Bridget C. First, thanks for reading and for the rapid response! Second, your note did indicate that I had "misconstrued" your receptionist's statement about my imagined "husband". I actually stated facts, and then recognized the possibility that those facts could potentially indicate a lack of LGBTQ friendly consciousness at Lindus Construction. It might be fair to say that I misconstrued something if I had gone from just a mere possibility to a vehement declaration (e.g. saying something like "Clearly, this company hates all LGBTQ people!"). But under the circumstances, my critical feedback seems pretty mild, quite plausible, and doesn't seem to mistake or "misconstrue" what actually occurred. Sorry if it seems like I'm nitpicking, but I think that accuracy in this instance matters. With that said, thanks for talking to your staff about this issue! Third, I agree wholeheartedly that Minnesota culture reflects our experiences of winter! But that's not quite the issue here. The storm you reference happened between Saturday night and Sunday. It was pretty predictable that there would be snow on the roof on the Tuesday after, and snow was also forecast for Tuesday since the weekend. So it certainly would have been fine and possible, if your staff wanted to reschedule a Tuesday 11:30am appointment to just call anytime Monday afternoon, or to call Tuesday morning, but not quite so early (i.e. at 10am or later). The call yesterday morning, before 8:30am, wasn't actually dictated by the weather. One value we do have in Minnesota is that compared to many states, we sometimes put a lot more value on caring for people, for neighbors, for community members. So take my critical feedback in that spirit? Minnesota includes many elders and people with disabilities, and a lot of us need more time in the morning to rest and to take care of our health, our hearts, our sore limbs, our digestive systems, our over-taxed adrenal systems, and to just to allow us to rise gently. So if you were open to changing your business culture (because it is corporate culture, not Minnesota culture that generates the norm that incorrectly assumes everyone should be up at 8am) -- it would be pretty simple, when having your reception staff do intake with new customers, to just ask, "If we need to call you, what hours are you generally available?", and then to take note of and honor the response. Doing so would be a great way to attract more loyalty from some of the many Minnesotans who are aging and disabled, and again, there are plenty of us. Thanks again for the reply, and take care!

It's much brighter than the dingy old planks, which were replaced with a composite Trex flooring that matches the shakes on our house. Railings and posts are white, and the crew even added a doggie gate so our dogs can spend time on the deck but cannot go down to back yard. The workmanship was excellent; the crew took pains to do everything correctly. The crew - Ben, Colin and Steve - was fantastic!

So there was allot of back and forth as to what was promised and what we actually ended up getting. A 3 week job took 6-8 months at one point had a trailer in my front yard for a couple months during holidays thanksgiving and Christmas all the siding off the house. Family came up looked horrible to have family arriving and no siding and a Krumm enclosed trailer in the front yard. There's allot more I asked that my windows and aluminum siding be left at my residence was told no problem. It was all hauled off. Told them I wanted no holes in my roof. They installed a satellite dish that was not hooked up back in the roof. I asked to have the shudders put back in the home. The guys argued everytime I mentioned it. You don't want that. You'll get wasps. Ya I do t want that. My wife does! The mate are cheap mernards crap windows and metal. Windows ordered were wrong size. Corners of the edges of home have gaps in the top. They didn't want to do the facia when they did they threw it up looks like crap. I can keep going. I in no way would recommend this company. I'd say stay away at all costs. When the facia they put up came loose. Took about 3 weeks to a month to have that nailed back up. Bent nail under a shingle the same thing. I highly recommend using any other company.
