"I had my AC installed by Kale company about 5 years ago and I have always talked highly due to the good job they did. Well I referred my mom to them and it did not go so well . After a few visits $700 later no AC working and no credit given. Apparently there was a hard start kit on this brand new AC unit at their new house and no one told my parents about this . A hard start kit apparently helps the compressor start. Why would a brand new AC unit need this you ask....well we were wondering the same thing. Apparently the hard start kit was disconnected to see if AC unit would run without it and it would not ( this also was not told to my parents ) So why would we dump $ 400 of freon into a brand new unit that is obviously a piece of shit. Well after that was added compressor or I should say hard start kit went bad. Was this the company's fault probably not but they could have informed my parents of this hard start kit before dumping more money into a AC unit that was not functional w"

"Failed to show up on agreed upon work date due to overbooking. Bid vinyl for an aluminum replacement, then was unresponsive about bidding aluminum. When we decided to go elsewhere, six months later they sent us an invoice for an additional, arbitrary $3k for work not performed. We disputed the invoice and never heard back until we got another invoice another seven months later seeking double the original amount including monthly interest and an ‘overhead & profit’ fee."

Chimney Repair questions, answered by experts

Roofers most often use nails to fasten roofing shingles and other roofing materials. Nails have more holding power than staples and offer better weather resistance and longevity. However, it is possible to use staples instead of nails when installing a roof. Staples are less expensive, but not as high-quality.

Metal roofing gets hot when it’s exposed to direct sunlight, but aluminum is naturally reflective and can actually help keep your home cooler in hotter, sunnier climates. The solar reflectance of aluminum is significantly higher than that of asphalt shingles and clay tile, so a metal roof will reduce solar heat gain in your home.

Sticky shoes help, but you shouldn't be walking on the steel roof— let the pros do that. it's dangerous enough to walk on asphalt shingled roofs which have quite a bit of texture. Stone coating adds a lot of grip, but it still doesn't lock your foot down, so if you absolutely have to be on the roof, make sure you’re secured in another way, like with the harness and rope.

The paint on a metal roof will last for about 10 years (the metal roof itself has a life span of 40 to 70 years). After a decade, the metal roof’s color may be more noticeably faded, and chips and cracks may start to form in the paint.

The type of repair you need is a major factor in the cost of repairing a roof. Some of the most common types of roof repairs include:

  • Leak: $360–$1,550

  • Damaged gutters: $180–$560

  • Flashing: $200–$500

  • Sagging roof: $1,500–$7,000

  • Damaged roof cap: $200–$750

  • Roof patch: $100–$1,000

  • Vent repair: $75–$250

  • Dormer repair: $250–$1,000

  • Fascia: $600–$6,000

  • Truss repair: $500–$5,000

  • Eave repair: $1,500–$1,700
