We purchased a home in April of 20167 that WF Construction had remodeled. In less than 3 years (March, 2019), we had a roof leak. Upon inspection, the roofing material was not adhered properly to the roof (see photo). We found a large area of our roof like this. WF Construction refused to remedy the defective work since it was beyond their warranty. We now have to pay to get a large section of our roof re-sealed.

It could not have been a better experience. They came in and gave me an estimate of money and time and they met both. They were extremely knowledgable. They took the drawings we had, and told us how we could increase the value of the home. For example, we had a dead space between the kitchen and the garage and they concealed the water heater and made a storage area out of that dead space. The order in which they brought the subs in was fantastic. No one was ever in one another's way. The onsite rep was very knowledgable about what they were doing and how things should be done. It was a three story home on a hillside. They were on time and meticulous with protecting the neighbor's property from over spray.

"Mr. & Mrs. [member name removed]- It was a pleasure working with you on your South Pasadena home. The hillside residence turned out beautifully- matching the gorgeous panoramic views. Our goal at WF Construction, Inc. is to complete quality projects & satisfy our clients' needs. We are happy to hear that we met your expectations. We look forward to collaborating with you on any future construction needs. ~WFC"

It started out very well and the design is gorgeous. The problem is that they keep their contract so vague that they kill you with and quot;change ordersand quot;. Also, do not trust any company that keeps an attorney on retainer to take advantage of people. When we sold the house less than a year later we learned about the things they had done which were not to code and we ended up in a huge lawsuit. I would not recommend this company as they have no business ethics. This is the experience we had. If you use them, make sure they do not cut corners and have your own attorney review their contract before you sign.
Response from WF CONSTRUCTION, INC.

"Customer, Although we are pleased to hear you are satisfied with the design of your home improvement, it is unfortunate that you chose to negatively impact our review with an overall 'D' rating. In addition to your home improvement, WF Construction has a personal relationship with your family and we have always maintained a good rapport. Your daughter worked for our company for several years, and was/is good friends with the daughters of the CEO and CFO at WF Construction. Based on this, we are responding to your review with a high level of respect and professionalism. Contrary to your statement, our contract with you was not vague. Based on your decisions, the contract spelled out (in detail) everything you requested to be done in your home. If there was something in the contract that was unclear to you, you had unlimited access to our management team (via email, office phone, or celluar phone) to address any issues before construction commenced. Our management team met with you on several occasions before construction commenced, and we maintained daily contact with you to keep you up to speed on our progress. Regarding change orders, please keep in mind that any work in addition to the original scope of work is a change order. This is a standard practice in the construction industry. Customer, you made numerous, last minute changes during the construction phase of your home improvement, and we did everything in our power to accommodate your requests in a timely manner. Changes to the original scope of work are not free of charge. Contrary to your statement, WF Construction does not have an attorney on retainer. However, it is standard practice for a company to hire an attorney when there are conflicts that cannot be resolved between two parties. Considering you are an attorney, you are very familiar with this process. Regarding the 'huge lawsuit', if you recall, the judge ruled in our favor. The defamation of character displayed in your review (almost 2 years after the lawsuit) is without merit and unjustified. By submitting a review of our company, your credibility is questionable. Regarding building codes, WF Construction obtained approved construction plans and permits for your home improvement. If the plans contained something that was not up to code, that would have been addressed and corrected during the plan check phase, as we would not have been able to obtain permits. We did not 'cut corners' or perform any illegal activity at any time during the design and construction phases. Attacking our business ethics is unnecessary and malicious on your part. We have numerous clients throughout Southern California that are 100% pleased with our services (past and present). We will continue to strive for excellence for our clients. Regarding your final statement to 'have your own attorney review their contract before you sign', as previously stated, you are an attorney. Therefore, if there was wording in the contract you did not agree with, you had every opportunity to bring it to our attention before signing it. Despite your negative review, we would like to wish you continued success in your future endeavors. Best of luck to you, customer."
