It's not often you get something done for what, so far, has been free, but that's what happened.
During a recent period of very heavy rain over several days, I experienced a leak in my living room. I called a few roofing companies, but they all would take two days or more. Wayne Gonzolez said they would have someone out in a couple hours.
Their man arrived on time. Even though it was still drizzling outside, he went into the attic and discovered the source of the leak. He applied what he called a "temporary fix" but couldn't guarantee it would last. It did work. He didn't charge, but said the company would call me.
After more than a week, I called the company and explained the situation. They said I would get a call back. I got a call from the owner a day or so later and explained the situation to him. He said he'd call back. It's now been a couple weeks, and I haven't heard back from them.
Because the "temporary fix" did the job, I don't doubt their ability to do their work, thus the "A" ratings. The overall "C" grade wasn't the fault of the worker, it was because the owner forgot about me and didn't follow up.
As far as everything else - very questionable;
1) He urged me to be paid in cash, which signals to me he's dodging taxes and isn't professional in my opinion.
2)He left my property a mess. There were stains all over the front door, walkway and driveway. I couldn't remove the stains with my pressure washer, but didn't notice them until I pressure washed my driveway the following year. Also on my front door is stuck with tar or whatever they use.
3) He replaced some wood fascia near the front door, and despite my request, didn't save a piece for paint matching. So I had unpainted wood on my house for the longest time until I had to put in the effort to take another piece off and take it to be matched. Also when sealing the wood his guy used this black sealer which looks extremely ugly. It was everywhere. I had asked him to use clear but they didn't. It all just looks ugly and messy.
4) It took forever for him to arrange a time to pay him. I had to call him several times and arrange meetings just to give him his cash.
All in all I wasn't happy with the job, despite the roof being good. I would have paid a bit more to deal with a professional.
