They gave us a very reasonable quote. He came by when we weren't around and took care of everything and left the bill in the mailbox. It was no hassle and really easy. The price was excellent, the best price we could get.
Description of Work: They basically did a gutter cleaning for me. We just bought a new house and cleaned it all up, we had some ice issues.

I have used them for over eight years. They have done a variety of work like gutter cleaning and repair. I like that he is prompt and responsive. He returns calls right away. I feel that the cost is reasonable. The estimates are right on. He just leaves the bill in our door and we just send him a check. He has gone out of his way to help us out unusual our gutter situation. He is such pleasant to work with and straight forward.
Description of Work: We hired them to replace a down spout. They repaired an area where some high winds took off shingles and they repaired some flashing. I don't remember the cost.

This company was easy to communicate with but there was a built-in delay since the communications were through messages. He was upfront about the time frame that the project would take. The work turned out as I had expected and he actually did a great job.

Andy promptly cleaned the gutters in my 4 unit building. Andy is not only highly professional, but he's very kind as well. I've had some bad experiences with various contractors in the past, and Andy showed integrity. There was a part my roof that butts up against my neighbor's house. This part was not cleaned out originally as the part that needed cleaning is below the roof line and not readily seen. When I asked if he could come back to do this, he kept his word and did it. Additionally, I have another property that I had some questions about gutter placement. Andy went to check this place out as well. I had many questions, and was impressed that Andy patiently answered all of them. I would highly recommend this company.

Excellent. Work was complete within two weeks, and the price seemed very reasonable. I had assumed that the piece of gutter had to be replaced, but was told it just needed repairing, so credit is given for not charging for work that did not need to be done. Very good experience.

I called to make an appointment, and they said they would come out within the next 7 days. I asked to be called before they came out, and the person I spoke to said that would not be a problem. Andy's two employees arrived a couple days later, but I did not receive a call before hand. They were both friendly and seemed to work fast. When they were done, one of Andy's employees rang my doorbell and handed me my bill. I asked him where they disposed of the debris and they said they don't do that. He said that with the debris from my garage gutters was swept into a couple piles in back of my garage and the debris off our roof was thrown over the side into our garden and that I would not even be able to tell it was there? I was a little surprised that they don't clean up the gunk in the first place, but also that it was thrown into our garden. I checked in back and saw where the debris/sludge had been thrown into the garden and had splattered onto the garage wall. I believe there was some thrown over the edge of our roof into our front lawn as well. The debris from the garage was in piles behind our garage which included lots of branches and twigs as well. I really found it unprofessional that they didn't clean up the debris, and also how they had just tossed it over the roof of our house. I called Andy and explained the situation. He said they don't normally dispose of the debris when working in Chicago because they don't know where to throw it away. I suggested he make it clear to his customers that Andy's does not clean up the gunk that is cleaned out of their gutters and/or roof. I had gotten quotes from other gutter cleaning companies that mentioned they throw the debris away so I assumed Andy's Gutters did as well. Andy's price is good, but since it does not include throwing away the debris, I will not go with them again.
Description of Work: They came out and cleaned out the gutter and roof top of our garage, as well as the gutter on our home.

SORRY, THE BEST THAT WE DO IS CLEAN IT UP AND LEAVE IT IN PILES. FIRST OF ALL, WE HAVE NO PLACE TO DUMP THAT STUFF. OTHER CUSTOMERS LOVE THAT STUFF AND USE IT AS MULCH. I WILL NOT READ EVERYONE'S MIND, BUT I WILL DO THE SAME WORK FOR EVERYONE. I DID TALK TO MY MEN AND THEY SAID THAT THEY DID NOT THROW IT IN YOUR GARDEN. WE ACTUALLY DID YOUR LANDSCAPERS JOB BY CLEANING UP EVERYTHING THAT WAS ON THE GROUND AND LEAVING IT THERE IN PILES. CAN'T PLEASE EVERYONE ALL OF THE TIME. SORRY

We had a clogged downspout going into the drain tile, and a split downspout that needed repair. I explained to Andy what our problem was over the phone, he said he'd stop by to look at it as soon as he could, and let me know what we needed to do. I appreciate the fact that they came within a few days of my call. BUT, they never called to say they were actually coming, which scared the heck out of me when. While my toddler was napping, I heard a loud bang on the side of the house, people walking around on my roof, and yelling outside. I ran outside and realized what was going on, which was fine, I just would've appreciated a heads-up(we are always on our guard here in the city). This was just supposed to be an estimate, they were not approved to do any work. Before I knew it, they had pulled all of the metal springs out of all of the gutters(top of the downspouts)that I had installed by another company. They also screwed a downspout together. I am irritated that they did this work without asking(I would have NOT let them remove the metal springs)and would have appreciated an estimate before doing actual work. Andy had the guys put the springs in a pile on our front steps and gave me a bill for $95. I was pretty upset by this and my husband did not pay the bill right away. Andy began calling us EVERY DAY, including VERY EARLY HOURS ON SATURDAY MORNING(yeah, we get your point, Andy, but that I call harassment). We are good people who ALWAYS pay our bills on time. I was flabbergasted by the complete lack of professionalism on Andy's part. We will never use them again!

WHAT A LIAR YOU ARE. I CALLED YOU 6 WEEKS LATER BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T PAY THE BILL NOR DID I HEAR FROM YOU. WE DID EXACTLY WHAT YOU TOLD ME TO DO. THE BASKETS WERE THE REASON THAT YOUR GUTTERS WERE CLOGGED AND OVERFLOWING AND YOU AGREED TO REMOVE THEM. WE ALSO REPAIRED YOUR DOWNSPOUT WITHOUT CHARGING YOU.

Andy's was very responsive to my call. They quoted a price immediately over the phone and showed up within 2 days. I happened to be home (which was not needed) during the time of the cleaning. They were working in inclement weather and never complained. They did an excellent job with the minor exception of not sweeping some of the dirt/leaves that came out of the gutter. Overall they took a simple job, kept it simple, were prompt and had the best prices of several companies I called. I would use them again.
Description of Work: Cleaned gutters for two houses next to each other. The houses are typical 3 story frame houses in Lakeview (neither an easy reach) - quote included both garages in the back.

The work took a while to finalize because we tried porch roof patching before finally deciding the whole thing needed to be replaced, and for each stage of the work we had to wait to fit into the company's schedule, but they always completed the work within the window specified on the contract. Andy and his whole crew were quick, neat, very friendly and professional.
Description of Work: Had gutters cleaned on two-story house and separate garage, one gutter replaced and roof edge rebuilt, main roof patched, porch roof patched, flashing and 2 roof stacks resealed, and then entire porch roof re-papered.
