We are on the third floor of a walk up condo, and we have a private rooftop deck. We started…read moregetting leaks in the ceiling in two places in our kitchen, and called about a half a dozen places in and around the city to come out and assess. The proposals were all over the place. Some companies said it couldn't be done without ripping off the rooftop deck and repairing everything. Some companies said it wasn't the roof at all, it was condensation inside the house? Jeff at Rollin Contracting was way more honest and practical in his assessment. He pointed out where he suspected the two leaks were coming from, but said that you never really know until you rip up the roof and move the air conditioner and take a look. He told us that roof repair was tricky, that the guys who said we might have to replace the whole roof could be right. But he wouldn't start with that, he would start with the less expensive approach. Granted, there was the risk that if it didn't work, we would have wasted that money when they re-did the whole roof, but we decided to gamble on a $2000 repair rather than jump into the $12,000 repair of the whole roof. Rollin Contracting was the only one who was honest and open and gave us options. He was also the one who was most confident in where he thought the leaks were coming from. It has now been one month since they repaired both potential sources of the leak, and neither of the leaks have come back. And in case you haven't been paying attention, we've gotten absolutely drenched this May. Meaning there is no doubt in my mind that they successfully fixed the leaks. The contractors that came to do the work were great, they didn't even enter the house. I offered to let them come inside to get to the rooftop, and they said they preferred to just go up and over to keep our house clean. While taking up the wooden boards on the rooftop deck to do the roof repair, they accidentally broke one of the boards. They went to Home Depot and replaced the board that day. Not a big deal, and super quick to fix it. Also, at the last minute (after we had signed the contract), I realized that I had forgotten to ask them about the fireplace, which also occasionally drips water during bad storms. I asked Jeff if he would have his guys look at the chimney to see if they could identify the source of the potential leak and to let me know what his recommendations were to have that fixed as well. He went ahead and had his guys caulk it while they were up there without even charging us. I know that's probably not a huge expense, but it was still a nice gesture to just throw that in. So across the board it was a great experience. Would definitely work with these guys again and recommend them with confidence.

We filed a compliant with the BBB for Rollin's failure to obtain necessary permits, workmanship…read morefailures and lack of professionalism. Please think twice before hiring this contractor - it will not be worth it if there are any uncertainties re: your project and they will say anything to get your job. We hired Jeff to perform some deck work for our three flat. Jeff quoted us $6K to replace certain posts and railings. One year later, additional work was clearly required because railings were loose and Jeff performed an additional $3K worth of work. At no time to Jeff represent himself as anything other than qualified to perform the work. Turns out he never even got a permit for the work. We were cited by the city for non-compliance shortly after his second round of work. He complied with fixing some of the issues identified. When he met with the inspector to review the work and confirm compliance, he essentially yelled, screamed, stormed off and refused to fix any of the additional work. We are now left with a deck that still needs work, $12K later. Jeff continues not to respond to emails/requests for him to finish his work. Jeff misrepresented his ability to do deck work according to city law and code. His unprofessionalism in resolving the issue that he created (he should have just said his people didnt do deck work maybe instead of doing a poor job and then getting upset when someone challenged him to do the work properly) was so disappointing. Do not work with this contractor.

Again they came out, took pictures to show me the area and did the work at a very fair cost.

My enclosed porch roof had a single leak. I hired Dave at DWD Renovation to do a tear off and…read moreinstall new rubber roofing on the flat portion and new shingles on the sides. After Dave/DWD finished the job, there were other problems and several leaks: 1. Dave/DWD didn't seal the rubber roof seams. I could put my hand right under the membrane. (See pic) 2. Dave/DWD didn't use any insulation. The rubber was installed directly onto the plywood. 3. Because of all the water damage, I now had to replace the interior porch ceiling. When I tore it out, I discovered that Dave/DWD used a thinner plywood for the decking and not the 3/4" specified in my contract. 4. Dave/DWD did not replace all the old roof decking. My contract specified 100% replacement. The difference in thickness between the old and new roof decking formed a roof buckle. (See pic) 5. The roof flashing Dave/DWD installed incorrectly, or not at all, caused water damage to the plaster walls of two of the interior rooms. (See pic) 6. Dave/DWD didn't use braces on their ladders. Instead they leaned the ladders directly onto the gutters which crushed them and the downspouts no longer lined up to drain into the gutters. Dave's guy screwed the downspout to the gutter as a "fix." It didn't work. The rain ran down the side of the house into the foundation. I had to install all new gutters and downspouts on the porch. Most of the problems surfaced after Dave/DWD was paid in full. I hired Dave/DWD because he lives in my neighborhood. I thought that would be an incentive for him to visit the job more frequently and be less likely to do a poor job and rip me off. The last time I saw him in person, I asked him again about my roof. He always agrees to "fix it," but when I ask him if "fix it" means starting over and repairing it correctly like he should have done the first time without breaching my contract, he just shook his head and walked away.

DWD did a gut renovation of our bathroom and a partial reno of our kitchen. While we are delighted…read morewith the final result and the place really looks beautiful, there were quite a few issues with the construction managing that made our review go way down. First, there were 3 separate equipment/fixtures that were wrongly installed and we needed to bring this up to their attention so they would re-install, from the kitchen sink in which the drawers didn't close because the piping wasn't installed correctly to thw microwave that wasn't allowing proper ventilation - all of those are items that were shown in the instructions which I believe weren't read. Secondly, the amount of tile that I was asked to order was 1/2 of the amount that we actually needed! And they told me that I needed to get more the day we ran out, so this caused 1 week delay, around 400$ in shipping fees and we had to extend our lease since wr couldn't move in to the place without the bathroom finished, so one more month worth of rent. Of course none of these expenses, nor part thereof, were deducted from the final fee. Finally, and most importantly, there was an issue with the shower not draining properly. I brought this up to Dave's attention immediately and his reaction was to deny there was a problem for days, saying that the problem was the tile that I chose (as a designer I've used this tile before with no issues so it was just poor craftsmanship) then proceed to tell me that he "didn't get what the big deal is, just squeegee the shower like most people do (??)". Eventually and after lots of pushing and some unpleasant phone calls he agreed to fix the issue, but he had already moved on to other clients and took 2.5 weeks to schedule the work. All in all we are happy with the way the place looks, and Dave was always responsive, but I know as an architect what things are acceptable or not and the shower incident and the way it was handled was definitely not. That being said, he is very fair priced, so if you have a tight budget like we did and are willing to be very much on top of the construction then DWD would be the right place for you!

We had…read morethis done in our previous home and loved the product and service provided by a different company, but their availability was at least a 2 month wait. We searched the internet and found Anthony and American Floor Coatings. Well, we should have waited those 2+ months, because it's been nothing but problems with this floor. Anthony installed our garage floor in spring 2019. The top coating was very runny and did not give a good coverage. In an effort to fix this, Anthony added an additional coat, but it only increased the puddling at the bottom of the step. I expressed my dissatisfaction with the finished result, but he refused to take any additional steps to remedy the situation. The next year, in early fall 2020, we noticed that the apron of the floor, which is exposed to the sunlight and weather, was yellowing. I called Anthony and he explained that they found out they did indeed use the wrong top coating product the previous year. He said he would add us to the schedule to come out and redo the apron with the correct product. After multiple attempts to schedule the work, he eventually got back to me, but it was too late to do the repairs due to the cold weather, so he said he would do it in the spring. I contacted him in the spring of 2021 and was told again that he would add us to the schedule. It is now August 2021 and we haven't heard from him since. In the meantime, the apron of our floor not only has yellowed, it is fully wearing away. We feel we should not have to hound Anthony to honor the lifetime guarantee of his product and service. Do not use American Floor Coatings. Terrible service.
