Another disappointed customer of Waunakee Remodeling. They replaced the entire roof and gutters, and included a leaf guard system for the gutters. As it turned out, they only put ONE screw in the downspout connected to a gutter drain (which was not clogged), and the downspout became completely detached within 3 years. (The previous/original gutters and downspouts were on for 22 years and I never had a problem...) Waunakee Remodeling charged me over $100 to have them come out and reattach the downspout, and told me that "No Gutter system is maintenance-free" even though this is EXACTLY how it was marketed to me. I will not use them again. Their poor follow-up on their inadequate work is, to say the least, disappointing.

Extremely disappointed. I chose Waunakee Remodeling because of their excellent ratings but was clearly misinformed. Waunakee Remodeling replaced our roof and skylights. They were given carte blanche to make any necessary repairs. Several months after the work was completed, one of the skylights began to leak. After several emails and phone calls, the initial installer finally came to assess the problem. First, he claimed that several of the water stains were paint. They were not. Next, he blamed the extremely cold weather. The leak had occurred and been reported prior to the cold spell. Finally, he said the problem was with the house and not with their “impeccable” workmanship. However, the previous skylight did not have these issues.

Do not believe any of what this company says. They "repaired" our roof and we have had them back multiple times because it leaked almost from the first rain we had after they did the work and portions of the shingles fall off almost monthly. It took them three months to come out to "look at" the shingle issue and they simply refused to look at the leak issue--they needed to "send a different guy out" and they have simply NOT followed up. Most recently they began shifting blame citing very poor workmanship; astoundingly, however, they shifted blame to themselves. We literally have rubbermaid tubs full of water in our attic and they simply do not stand behind their work. Avoid this company at all costs! They have no integrity and they do not honor their warranties.

"Mr. [Member Name Removed], We understand your frustration with your home remodeling project. We believe that we have gone above and beyond our contracted commitments for you as a customer. However, there are things that are out of our control and homeowners must still do their part to maintain their property. In your specific situation there were things that needed maintenance before a final solution could be made by Waunakee Remodeling. We feel that we have been very responsive to your requests and uphold our company to the highest standards of customer satisfaction. However, sometimes we are not the best fit for all projects. I am eager to come to an amicable solution regarding this issue"

Beautifully. Waunakee has done other things for us and are always great to work with, from the estimator to the foreman to the craftsmen. I can't really say enough about their care and attention, not to mention their skills. These guys are good!

Projects were done on time and within budget. The onsite foreman was great. We had some complaints about some of the deck staining and grout in the bathroom. the problem areas were replaced. Brian (our salesperson) came back out to take a look at the grout. The grout in the bathroom was likely due to getting it wet too soon after installation. The grout was replaced at no additional cost to us. We also had questions on our bathroom towel racks that had gotten loose - he fixed one and showed us how to tighten the other ones. Their response to issues was professional. We were very happy with their work.

Some good work, had to supervise to correct many errors. Overall, we were dissatisfied, and felt they were unreasonable and overcharged for what was done. Left much cleaning work for us to do. Never followed up on cleaning out vents at the end. A lot of lacking in follow-through. A nightmare experience, took way longer to complete work than planned -- often came home to see skeletal crew, when much work was to be done still.. Questionable charges. Never resolved our request for reconciling costs. Can hear workers cursing, leaving cigarettes butts everywhere -- not professional. Just awful. We cannot understand their A rating, based on our experience.

Overall good--the windows look good, but they had to return to realign trim pieces and fix a broken tile.

Good. We replaced our old, ugly front door with a beautiful, high-quality full glass door. The installation was efficient. When the deadbolt didn't line up as well as it should, they came back the same day to adjust it. The sales person was helpful with all of our questions and not pushy in any way.

The door work did not go as well. The actual installation was fine but they left the biggest mess after they were done. They left wood shavings throughout the house. I had to pay $200 for a maid to come in and clean the house. I called the company to let them know I had a problem and the manager I talked to was very arrogant, and accusatory. He told me they already fired a guy but he did not apologize for anything. My neighbors had complained about them making loud noise from the radio. They told me I should have told them to send out a cleaning up service. I did not know they even had one and I don't know why they thought that was my responsibility to even ask. I would not use them again.

Skylights - They went very well. They ran into issues but handled them quickly. The job looks very professional and clean. Gutters - We ran into major water damage issues on the fascia and siding in some areas. They walked us through the damaged areas, asked if wanted them fixed and quoted the work. This was cedar siding they were working on and did a fantastic job. Looking in at the areas they added now material you can't tell the difference, which is pretty amazing. They weren't cheap to start with and the addition of this repair certainly added a lot more. However, we had a high degree of confidence that they would do the work well for that price based on their professionalism.

Earlier this year (2016), I contracted Waunakee Remodeling to update my kitchen with flooring, countertops, gas installation, new sink, plumbing and major appliances. Consulting with Project Manager Ken Fennewald and Project Consultant Chad Trimble, we set out a plan for getting the job started, continued and completed. Starting: Floor plans were drawn, appliances/sink/faucet/countertops were chosen, scheduling was implemented and supplies ordered. Continuing: Gas piping, flooring, countertops, sink and plumbing were installed. Completion: Carpentry (wood-working and finishing details), inspection and final nit-picking adjustments. The people that helped make the project a success were: • Waunakee remodeling - Ken Fennewald - Project Manager - Chad Trimble - Project Consultant - Jenny - Designer - Sawyer and Cory - Carpenters • CarpetsPlus COLORTILE - Jeff Howery - Flooring Consultant - Bob - Installer • Avid Plumbing - Eric - Owner • Grand Appliances, Inc - Doug Haag - Building Account Manager - Installation crew (do not remember names, sorry) • Ideal Surfaces, Inc - Countertop Installers (do not remember names, sorry) The project was handled by very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and courteous people. They went way above my expectations to complete the job smoothly and on-time. I totally recommend Waunakee Remodeling and the subcontractors.

The Waunakee guys arrived in less than a week and did an amazing job on the gutter. Cannot tell it was ever bent. As a bonus they unclogged a downspout that I had failed to get clean on multiple tries. From here forward, I will call Waunakee Remodeling first for gutter repairs and replacement. I could not be more satisfied with the result I got. I expect that when the next rain hits, the gutters will do their work.

They were very considerate, I had family staying at the time, but there was no inconvenience on our part.  Their clean-up was very good!  All waste material and equipment was removed, and except for the great new windows, one would not know that there had been work done.   Since it has been several years since they have done any work for me, it is difficult to remember details, but all the workers from this company that have worked on my house have been very courteous and skilled.

They do very good work. They're pricey, but their workers are good. The communication is lacking, though. For example, my husband called them, left a voicemail, didn't hear anything for 10 days, then we got back from a walk and they left a message saying they'd be there 8:00am the following morning. They never follow up either to hear how the service went.

Another thing that's lacking is they don't offer an Angie's List discount up front, and we have to specifically ask for it.
