CROOKS911
This company is a complete rip off/ scam. I was told by two different insurance adjusters, and an independent contractor that the damage on my roof was invented. I was also told this company is well known in the industry for this type of problem. When i realized this scam, I immediately cancelled, and was still charged $400 for no work done. I wish I had seen this board prior and would never have allowed them on my property. The original contractor who sub-contracted to them was also scammed out of the deal, and I am aware they no longer do business with this company. Do not allow them on your roof! SCAM, SCAM, SCAM. STAY AWAY OR YOU WOULD REGRET IT!

SCAM, SCAM, AGAIN!

For a company that has over 3ooo names and customers you sure have a lot of complaints on the internet, and several purporting that you are a scam company? Can all these people be wrong? I say CAVEAT EMPTOR!

1. The full roof replacement was denied as it was found to be "Mechanical Damage" by not one but two adjusters, including an independent roofer. I tend to believe the insurance company because of the experience I have had with your company. I was charged 20% of the initial check that was paid to your company. This check was given to your employee under duress, and was for repairs (mostly interior repairs) and not for a full roof replacement.

***** You NOW claim the contract is invalid unless you WIN a claim which is completely opposite from your position and all communications with your company and with your finance manager, and by the way, I have email correspondence to support this.*****

1b. The company that was schemed out of the project even before the project was to start or before the adjusters came to inspect the roof, this was done by pressuring the customer to sign a contract and now using the signed contract against the original company, and by taking ownership of the project. This company's representative has informed me that they NO LONGER sub-contract to your company as a result.

I was never billed because I cancelled the contract, after finding out how your company operates and also that the damage to my roof was mechanical, "mechanical" is the term used, and you MR. Zdenek of all people should know this, it is a nice way of saying that the damage was man made or made to appear as though.

Roof911 Took my $9000 insurance check and only completed half the work I hired them to perform. I hired them in June of 2011. Currently, all Charlotte Roof911 offices have been closed, and all local numbers and emails have been disconnected (along with most, if not all, employees were fired). I have made several attempts to contact the CEO Dev Zdenek, and all of my phone calls and emails have gone unanswered.

I hired Roof911 for repairs after a large hail storm that took place in April, 2011. The scope of work to be completed by Roof911 included: new roof shingles, new gutter system, new metal deck over front porch, and new front elevation of vinyl siding.

Completed work: new roof shingles, new gutter system.

Uncompleted work: new black metal roof deck over front porch, new front elevation of vinyl siding.

I was not given any paperwork, besides the starting contract with Roof911 (which I still have). I also have pictures of the roof shingle install, before, during, and after completion. I also have some text messages sent between myself and Jake Fristoe concerning the work not yet completed, since that is how most of the communication was handled.

The roof shingle replacement was started June 23rd and finished June 24th. On June 22nd, Jake wrote an email stating that the metal roofing over my front porch and front elevation of siding replacement would shortly follow the shingle work. Gutter replacement was completed shortly after the shingle replacement (not sure of the date), but according to Susan at D&W Inc; they have not been paid for the gutter replacement on my home.

September 1st, Jake told me (via text message) that Roof911 was waiting for another home in my area, so they could do the work on both homes in the same day. That never happened. The last I heard from Roof911 (via Jake's text message) was on October 18th, 2011. Jake told me to contact someone named Tracy at the main Charlotte office for further information on my home repairs, since he was no longer employed by Roof911. All Roof911 Charlotte area phone numbers have been disconnected, all Charlotte employee emails (and most Atlanta emails) bounce back. I've called Roof911's CEO Dev Adenek several times, left several messages and emails, with no return call/email.

I filed a complaint with the BBB on November 21st, 2011. There has been no response from Roof911.
I contacted my insurance company hoping they could help me in some way. They told me that there was no action they could take to help me with the uncompleted work, that I would have to take Roof911 to court.

Now I find that Roof911 has charged me $500 on December 5th, 2011. I've filed a dispute with my credit card company, as these charges were not approved...especially, since only half the work I hired them to do was completed.

My attached Photo is proof that most, if not all, email attempts are bounced back.

As the owner of the company in question these comment I find simply exaggerated and one sided. In defense to my company that has installed thousands of roofs and supports and feeds 100 families. I find that our transition to service our commercial clients over residential has created challenges on some home owners that got caught in the middle of corporate a restructuring transition to service our national commercial clients.

If any customer or potential customer needs to verify our credibility - Please call any of the 40 churches and listed pastors and ask them about me or my company and how we went above and beyond on customer care or roof insttallation. This list represents $10 million dollars in hail damage repair claims.

ROOF911 scammed me as well.

They only completed half the work I hired them to perform on my home in June 2011. Took my $9000 insurance check and have since closed all Charlotte area office. They have disconnected all phone numbers and emails. Now I see them charging me $500 in December 2011.

ROOF911 is a corrupt company! DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM!
