The second time was due to wind damage where 1/3 of my roof was gone in a matter of days with the storms that rolled through back in 2011. When I called in my insurance claim they came out and Buckshot took care of everything for us. This time was just as fast as the last and the roof looked great.
The most recent need for Buckshot was this year when heavy rains, winds, and small hail hit my home. This time is was a triple whammy with leaks that needed interior repair, winds that blew up shingles, and minor hail damage on our windows, siding, screens, etc. Over the years of dealing with Buckshot I have seen how much more efficient they have become in every aspect of the restoration process. Again just like the first time they paid close attention to detail and made sure we were happy with our selections and the process and everything was completed in a timely fashion.
Every time working with Buckshot was a pleasure and I would definitely recommend them to anyone who needs work done on their home.
received a new roof on my house and detached garage. Also new siding on
both house and garage. After hiring them for this work and being so
pleased with the service and the overall quality and look of my home I
hired them again to complete some interior repairs to the same home. I
had some walls moved and new sheet rock and plaster done throughout the
house. I also updated my kitchen and bathroom cabinets. Lastly they
installed new carpet and tile flooring throughout the house. I now have
a total house face lift and I owe it Buckshot GC for its involvement
in this project from start to finish. They were always where they said
they were going to be each day and did an excellent job to keep me
informed and updated as problems arose. I have one last project that I
will be hiring them for this summer, my deck is out dated and in
disrepair and I will definitely have them out to manage this whole
project from start to finish.
The end of the experience was so bad we will never use them again.
I really don't remember the exact price but it was in line with the rest of the neighborhood.
1/12/16: I just saw the reply from Buckshot regarding this review. The reason for the late review is that I had not seen them on Angie's List prior to the date of this review. I will also say that we called the company multiple times to try to resolve this to no avail and complained multiple times to the company to try to get the insurance information sorted through.
The sad thing is that I am not critiquing the quality of their work. Yes we had a leak after the repair but they returned and fixed it in a timely fashion. However, if they cannot help with the paperwork required by the insurance company then how can I recommend this company?
"The work here was completed over 3 years ago. If the experience was so bad I am not sure why it took so long to voice her opinion. We did over a dozen home repairs in her subdivision and no one else complained. We are not perfect but we try to every job to the best of our ability. We do hundreds of projects every year, in several states, and the coordination of this can be tricky. The fact is that sometimes a job or two get dropped and we are left to pick up the pieces. It is not an excuse, simply the reality of construction and the insurance industry"
"I am not sure why she chose not to call our company when a problem arose. We have completed over 10 projects for the [member name removed] family.I am not sure how your job turned out so bad when we just completed 5 more last year for [member name removed] We are not perfect but try to the best job we can on every job."
"I have read the review and only wonder if the clean up was the main issue why such a low grade. Our payment process is in 2 or 3 steps, the representative should have gotten the clean up rectified before he secured the final payment. Sorry for the inconvenience."
