Get matched with top gutter repair and replacement pros in Preston, ID

"I am a 100% disabled veteran on a fixed income. After being discharged from the military, the home my wife and I purchased had asbestos siding, and since we had small children, siding was our top priority. We chose DaBella because of the values and ethics the company preached that they held. Including the salesman telling us everything they use was made in America "to the nail." Additionally, the training and minimal experience requirement of "their" crews was another heavily highlighted talking point. My wife and I are both veterans, so we thought the $67000 price tag would be worth supporting this company. Unfortunately, the company did not display the values and ethics it preached from the time we signed the contract. Our home was halfway completed in the wrong color (one shade off) before the installers realized the mistake. At the time, the General Manager (GM) at the Idaho Falls office insisted they finish the job in the wrong color before negotiating prices. His initial pitch was a $2000 discount for doing the job in the wrong color. The issue was eventually negotiated to something I felt neither party was happy with, but it worked. Two short years after installing the siding in July 2024, I noticed some issues with the caulk, peeling and cracking all around the house and windows. After a brief walk around my home, I saw the problem was widespread. After a few days of hassle with the customer service office and speaking to a manager in the Dallas customer service office, my complaint was upgraded to the highest level and sent to the Idaho Falls offices. The Idaho Falls office (now under a new GM from the installation) sent the original crew to inspect their own work, which seems absurd from my perspective. However, after I raised concerns about this, the office GM showed up to walk around with me himself and "hear" my concerns and issues with the siding. He pointed out installation errors in several areas from the advertised 7-year minimum experience crews who participated in advertised special-caulking schools. Objectively speaking, it seems okay at DaBella to rush $67000 contracts; I didn't work as hard for my money, I suppose. We ended the interaction with a plan to have a third-party James Hardie representative inspect the siding and make recommendations. The plan was to correct the recommendations. Since the caulk shouldn't fail two years after the installation, as a homeowner, I have concerns for the project as a whole and any damage that the faulty caulk may have caused. Having a third-party inspection is the appropriate course. After a week, I hadn't heard anything from the GM and followed up. I was informed that James Hardie blamed the caulk company, and they saw no reason to come out. I asked the GM to call me so I could better understand what the plan was going forward. After all, it is my home, and businesses should speak to me before making decisions. He never called. I gave the GM two more weeks to call with a solution, but I am still waiting to hear a reasonable solution. After giving the GM THREE weeks to contact me with a solution, I had heard nothing from DaBella. I called on 28AUG2024 and spoke with the project manager. After a short conversation, it became clear that there had not been an in-depth conversation between the project manager and the GM about correcting the issues at my home. Both the Idaho Falls office and the Dallas call center refused to give me the regional manager's contact information. This leaves me wondering, WHO IS HOLDING THE IDAHO FALLS OFFICE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE STANDARDS DABELLAS ADVERTISES? AFTER ALMOST A MONTH OF PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING, I FIND MYSELF WRITING REVIEWS AS A WARNING TO OTHERS. DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS!!!"

"Low quality."

"Currently going through renovations with this Company. We are over a month into the project which has had 3X times more days not working than actual progress being made on the house. The initial estimate and sales experience was good, they were quick to respond and connect. As soon as we committed to this company and paid 50% deposit that's when the communication stopped. We had windows being installed from another Company so I was communicating status of that install so Burbach could could schedule after our windows were installed. When I told them a date the installation would be complete they gave me a date they would start on our renovations. The date they finally came was 1 week after they communicated. When they arrived they were not ready for the job. No dumpster had been ordered so the demo process couldn't proceed as intended. The guys tried to do the best they could but they were forced to work around their mess. The dumpster then arrived two days later at which point the next day was used for clean up. Once the demo was complete another week went by before the team came back to actually install the hardie board on the house and they would work a partial day and leave. I was told this was due to rain. It only rained for 10min each day and then stopped, if that's true it makes sense why they are so delayed. During this entire process I received no communication. When I reached out my calls and texts were ignored. When I did finally get in touch with someone there was no apology or serenity just that they got busy. After the exterior work was complete but not painted they had extra material left in our driveway along with the dumpster, it took another week for the material and dumpster to be removed but I also had to call on that. We waited another 2 weeks for painting to start and once it finally did they painted half the house and we haven't seen them again for 3 days. I was told they would finish the job last week and it will likely go another week for paint. I'm still waiting for half the house to be painted and I have gutters that still need to be installed so I'm hoping that doesn't take another month to get scheduled. We also ordered patio doors but I couldn't get anyone to give me a timeframe on installation so it became obvious that these were never actually ordered. Overall the biggest issue with this company has been communication and scheduling, its painfully obvious that customer service is not a priority and they have developed a lax and unprofessional culture. If you have other options you should pursue those instead of choosing Burbach."
