EXPRESS REMODELING INC
About us
Renovating their own Oregon home initially inspired Andrey and Valentina Brichuk to found Express Remodeling Inc. The business began in 1994, one house at a time. As Express Remodeling created showplace after showplace out of what had previously been a disaster in structure or design, other Oregon homeowners took notice. During its first decade, Express Remodeling has built a reputation with customers for the expertise of our tradesmen and the quality of our workmanship. Each member of the Express Remodeling team has proven skills in finding innovative ways to solve problems and, whenever possible, to save on costs without compromising quality. Today, Express Remodeling is recognized as one of Oregon's most respected names in local businesses and homeowner services. Over the years, we have embraced advances in technology but we continue to believe in the importance of three basic principles: integrity, respect and pride.

They arrived on schedule and did the work as expected. when we identified issues they came out promptly to resolve.
When the tech, Jim, arrived, he was nice and cordial throughout the visit. The entire time on the roof was probably a half hour to 40 minutes. During that time he inspected the roof and caulked areas where a shingle was missing. I told him I had a couple shingles if he would nail them on. He said he wasn't prepared to do any work on the visit. He stated this type of visit was for inspection and to do some minor caulking. That's not what the purchase adverstising stated. He wouldn't do any minor repairs. However, i happened to have on hand some moss treatment and he said he' d be glad to do so and sprinkled that over areas on the roof; where I do not know. I received four pictures of the same broken shingle and that is all. I had to directly ask him to send it to my email address. There were other minor areas where he could have easily brushed off moss patches, take more pictures, look at flashing. He did no minor repairs as the deal advertises.
I then got a sales pitch for another half hour for a new roof for $13-14,000 or a moss treatment for a mere $1,500.
So I paid $99 for some caulking and a sales pitch. And THIS is what the big deal says is normally $499. Really.?
These guys may be nice, but frankly, so what? It was a complete waste of my money. I would not call them back to do anything because I don't like paying for a slick sales pitch.
They sent one person that came out, the sales manager, but he wore sandals and was super heavy. The neighbors came over and were checking on him. He actually got in an argument with them. After my neighbor walked away, he said to me that I obviously ?wasn?t interested in keeping the value of the home up but rather make a quick fix just to sell it?. He was insulting.
I had a leak that needed to be looked at in our attic, but he physically couldn?t get in there. He said he would send someone else to come over. He left and didn?t put the hatch back on the attic door. A week later, I still have not received an estimate and he brought up my neighbors and then gave me a huge sales pitch. I got a 25 minute dissertation about moss on roofs and I told him that he could just send me a report, but I never got it.
I feel that they are using this coupon as a way in. I told him I didn?t have time for it, so I told him just to send us an estimate. They wanted $1500 to clean the roof alone for a 1,000 sq ft ranch. I have no idea if they actually did anything for the roof maintenance as no one witnessed it. They were not trust worthy as far as I am concerned. I feel like I've wasted my money.
"Hello [member name removed], Our apologies for how your appointment was handled. The notes on file did mention your request that the appointment be at your fathers house, unfortunately is was automatically set with primary contact information recorded as your address. Normally we have a final confirmation step to verify such appointment information, and we are still not certain how such a huge detail went undocumented on the appointment. We would also like to offer you our sincere apologies for the extremely unprofessional behavior for our sales representative. Our sales representatives are never allowed to wear sandals when they are on the job, and a measure of respect should should always be maintained. We try to approach our inspections from an informational and educational perspective, and to assist in anything that is within our ability. Our mission is to be a quality resource for all homeowners, which certainly does not sound like the experience provided by that representative. We have reprimanded that representative, and shown him this review. With respect to his behavior on the job, he seems to be regretful and apologetic. However, this was not the first of such instances, thus we could no longer continue to employ him. Hopefully this will be a lesson for him to reflect on in the hopes that may become more professional in his future career elsewhere. We expect all of our representatives to conduct themselves with pride, honor, and respect; for our customers, the community, and themselves. This situation will be used as an example of how important is is for our reps to remain professional and respectful. Again our sincerest apologies how this played out. We will try to contact you about the possibility of righting our wrong however we can, and please do hesitate to contact us whenever convenient for you. Thank you for your understanding."
to start work a day earlier than I was told which worked out great. The quality of materials used is superb and the time it took was just 3 days. Express Remodeling Inc. gave me a bid which worked with my budget and they did not go over the quote. I would not hesitate using Express Remodeling Inc. again for other projects I may have coming up.
Thanks for a job done well.
