"Thank you [removed members name]. We will look forward to your call for service in the spring. Neal"
A Best was brought on as a subcontractor for my roofing contractor. Their communication with the roofer was poor, he was attempting to contact them to confirm start time, but was never contacted back, they just showed up and started the job. The start was on the date scheduled, but the confirmation in advance of their arrival is such a simple thing, there is no excuse for not doing it.
They completed removal of old gutters/downspouts and formed and hung the new gutters in about 6 hours. There was one downspout installed with a visible up angle on it. As we all know, water doesn't flow up hill. I had them fix it before they packed up, their fix left a different part of the downspout with an up angle. I had them look again before they left the site and again they "fixed it" but spraying some water on the roof in the area of that downspout showed it was not angled sufficiently for the water to drain and it leaked backwards out the joints.
After this, I started looking a little closer. There were several places where there were pieces of the old gutter hangers still dangling from the soffits, or poking out from the edge of the roof. None of the holes in my brand new roof were sealed to prevent water entry. When I got up on the roof, I also noticed standing water where I had previously sprayed the hose 2 days earlier.
I had to bring my roofer out to see how bad it was and get him to go after A Best Gutters to come out and fix it. 3 separate times I had to take time off work to meet representatives of one or both contractors at the house and 3 times, A Best Gutters tried to claim that a gallon of water standing in the gutters on the back of the house was acceptable. (It had not rained, so the rest of the house did not have water, but a simple bubble level showed that problems would be inevitable.)
The final resolution was after 3 weeks of arguing with A Best Gutters, and their refusal to come out and re-pitch the gutters, my roofer had to bring in a different gutter installer to rip out the gutters that A Best had installed and start over from scratch.
fast.I would recommend them to anyone seeking a
professional quality job.
