The work started on a Friday and ended on a Sunday. They left a ladder standing on my roof overnight. After the work was done on Easter Zack text me to say bluntly a crew will be there tomorrow to pick up equipment. First greet people before you start being rude. Why didn't anyone informed me equipment was going to be left at my property. Also Zack informed me on Thursday the 17th he would perform a inspection to make sure the work was done correctly. No inspection

Not a good experience. First of all, I told the lady that scheduled my consultation that I was not interested in making a purchase right now and just wanted to get an idea of what the cost would be. Apparently, she did not put a note in the system to reflect what was said or maybe, they just don't care. Once, Robbie arrived at my door, I was sure to state to him that I didn't want to waste anybody time and just wanted to get an idea on price, thinking that would cut down on the bargaining. Nope, he was persistent in pressuring me for 2 hours on a product that I told him I surely cannot afford at the time. Well, he proceeded to sit down with me and pressured me again and again telling me about his different offers and calling his supervisor over and over again to get fake discounts like those discounts were put there just for me. I know that's a rehearsed sales trick and he should have took "No" for an answer and moved on. I made it very clear that I could not make the purchase right now as I had just paid for unexpected car repairs. He didn't care, he just proceeded to so-called "lower" the price. He started at a price of like $17,000 and kept so-called "working it down" and ended up at a little over 9,000. What company do yall know will give you an over $7,000 discount? Even if they removed some of the features that are not needed, like the cover thingy where you can go in and take the trapped debris out or the colored wrap they use. There is no discount for that amount. They overpriced the product way out so that they can work down, hoping somebody will fall for it and purchase at the ridiculous price after the fake discounts. Also, I hadn't applied for anything "credit" in a long time and just wanted to see if I would get approved so I allowed Robbie to run a "soft" check on my credit. I asked him straight up was it definitely a "soft" check on my report and he confirmed this. After giving him my ID, he entered my info into his tablet. I immediately received an email from Credit Karma stating that I had a new "Hard Inquiry" on my credit report. I told him this and he just looked confused and surprised that I had called it out. He had no explanation for this and acted as if he was not aware that this can happen. I am sure they mentioned that it will be a "Hard Inquiry" in his training but he was more concerned with making a sale than caring about what was best for the customer and their financial needs. They are trained to be exceptionally nice, present the product well, play on your emotions, and offer you fake discounts on overly pricey products.
TRAINED SCAMMERS and taking people hard-earned money. -
Great experience! Never pressures you into any sale. Very thoroughly explained things and showed all options available. I am 100% happy with this company and salesman (Daniel Burnett). Highly recommend!
Update: I just got the information about the financing and it was insanely high! The cost for the gutters was around $9500 but the interest is over 26% (I did not even know the interest rate until after it was a done deal). Also, this is a credit card and not a loan, so the interest rate will essentially continue to rise and no definite end date. I calculated total cost and this will easily cost me $20,000 in interest. Also, was told that it would be around $118 per month and that is not the case. The minimum payment is substantially higher at around $700 per month. This has taken an extremely hard hit on us not only as new homeowners but also being that we have limited income at the moment. If we were going to pay what we were initially told before making decisions, it would have been fine. However, in the end, it was substantially more expensive than agreed. The product is good but the professionalism and being lied to is not okay. I also wish I had known before approving the financing that it was a credit card and not a loan. I have NEVER had ANY BUSINESS finance something through a CREDIT CARD!
I just want to stress that this company is not very transparent like it seems. I chose this company based on what I was being told and even $9500 is insane for gutters. I have been quoted by many companies as low as $2,000 for something they mentioned would cost like $4,500 on average. Not to mention that we only have a house that is 1,086 sq ft. I have known a lot of friends and family with MUCH LARGER HOUSES that paid less than what I did on a house as small as ours.
Overall, I am just very upset that I was lied to about the financing and what to expect. I was not even shown the interest rate before charging over $9000 to it! Before submitting the credit application, it was made to sound like in house financing as well. With a set monthly payment and everything! Now a so called $9500 investment will cost me long term more than a car!
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY WHATSOEVER! Being nice and having a good presentation cannot justify this! This is straight up BAD BUSINESS! I honestly could not recommend this company in good faith. Even if I got half this money back to offset the insane interest, it would still be insanely expensive and I definitely do not see them refunding ANY money! I feel very scammed and like someone took advantage of us as new homeowners. I 100% regret this and wish I just had gone to Lowes and paid them or a private general contractor. No, the warranties aren't always the same, but they are transparent about cost and financing and will not start any project that they have not completely presented!
Also, I feel like it is also very weird how I was asked to give a review immediately once the presentation was over before anything had been done. It felt like the review online was more important to them than customer satisfaction.
Do not make the same mistake! Find a general contractor! -
Okay let’s start about I was quoted $10230.00 with a interest rate of 17.99% after a phone call with the rep to his manager he got it down to 10% in which me being a female I was like okay great. Well boy was I wrong after looking at my paperwork and seeing I’m paying about 20 grand for gutters I decide to cancel. After I cancel the rep called and gave me a deal of 6999.00 I agreed he told me that I would lose the drain defenders I asked how much is the drain defenders he stated 147.00 I’m like that’s all I will pay for that no problem. Fast forward to today installation day first thing the workers say is we don’t have the cement blocks we haven’t had them in months. I was no way this should’ve bern communicated. My next thing was it’s only two of you how are tall gonna replace all the fascia boards his response we not doing that we only replace what is necessary I responded with that’s not what I was quoted. Next here goes the manager Zac okay we can do it it’s a misunderstanding of communication but I need to collect $500 in cash after I said that’s not what I was told per text message he then proceeds to have a GM call me in which was rude. He stated this deal I’m not doing it fir a dine cheaper I will have the crew pack up and leave. Talking about unprofessional, rude and rip off. Not to mention I have the workers on camera talking about how the price was really high compared to other homes they have done.

When I signed my contract i was told i had a 0% interest rate. With a payment of $98 a month for 5 years totaling $6400. After the work was done they realized i was not approved for the 0% interest option and I'm now stuck with a 19% rate paying $192 a month which means I'm going to pay over $11,000. After several calls to the office, and being told that a manager would call me back, I never got that call back.

The salesman came in smooth. Had me sold in ten minutes. After the job was completed issues after issues.We called they sent an installer out twice. I was told I needed to have my yard filled with dirt to make the water run off. Then on the second visit I was told I needed to purchase some attachedments to the spouts to direct the water from the house. They knew what was needed before and fell to inform me. They have not returned anymore calls. Water is still sitting around the foundation.

Do not recommend!!!! This “ business” tore off shingles and made us pay for it to get fixed. $1350 later and he doesn’t care to refund anything. Make sure you take your pictures of what they do before and after because these men were not up to par.

Several months ago I had gutters installed and during the process, the installers tore off $1,350 worth of shingles while removing the old gutter system. When I arrived home, the installer had me take pictures informing me that I needed to contact my roofers to have my shingles replaced as soon as possible to prevent damage from rain. I had just had a new roof placed 2 years ago. I don't understand why they didn't alert me to this prior to tearing off the shingles. I finally heard back from someone TODAY stating he had spoke with me about this earlier and that they had taken pictures. Pictures of what? They never should have torn shingles off my roof then had me pay to have them replaced. I want people to know about this as this was VERY wrong. A simple apology would have been nice but what I received on the phone today sounded like a bully. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL! Beware to the general public! I wished I had read the reviews prior to hiring this company.
