Vanguard Building Solutions

Looks great, all our contacts were professional. George came out to get info for estimate, while Anthony and Pablo came out to do the work. Very pleased overall.

We recently had the guttering system on our home replaced by Vanguard Building Solutions. The project included replacement of our gutters and repair and replacement of rotted fascia and soffit. The project was overseen by John Ambrosio, one of Vanguard’s principals. We have been through many renovation projects of our home and I must say that the professionalism in which Vanguard completed the project is way beyond what we have become accustomed to. In selecting Vanguard, we also interviewed another contractor. That contractor came to our home and did exactly what we asked them to do which was to quote us a price for replacing rotted fascia and soffit and fixing the gutters. Mr. Ambrosio came to our home to spec the job (he was on time and called ahead to confirm the appointment and his arrival time I might add) and spent a good deal of time walking our roof and reviewing our gutter situation. Mr. Ambrosio was very forthright with us and explained to us that our real problem was a roofing issue and that the roofing issue was causing our fascia, soffit and guttering issues. This issue was not identified by the other contractor and was subsequently borne out to be true upon examination by a roofing contractor. This analysis of our situation by Mr. Ambrosio saved us the agony of completing the project only to find out that the real issue remained unresolved. The other gutter contractor we interviewed never identified this issue. Highlights of the project included: Mr. Ambrosio providing coordination of the guttering/fascia/soffit work by Vanguard with that of the roofing contractor. Although Vanguard does not do roofing work, Mr. Ambrosio was extremely knowledgeable of roofing work and served as a resource to us regarding the roofing work as it progressed. The value of this to me cannot be overstated. I had no interest in providing general contractor services and overseeing both the roofers and Vanguard and Mr. Ambrosio handled the coordination of the two on an egoless basis. He stopped by whenever I had questions and I never had to step in and referee differences between Vanguard and the roofers. Mr. Ambrosio and his team were consummate professionals. They promptly returned calls and texts, showed up on time as promised, and left our home each day having picked up after themselves. I felt the price that I was given was fair and that when additional work was required (work they had told me might have to take place before we signed the contract) they discussed it with me before moving forward and gave me a very fair price. In reality, I feel as if I was under-billed for the work they performed throughout the project. During the course of the project, the roofers did not adequately secure our home from rain and we sprung leaks inside our home. This matter was ultimately resolved by our roofers who also conducted themselves professionally. One of these leaks took place on a Sunday evening and was discovered when I came home around 7:00 in the evening (water was draining into the interior of our home in multiple locations). As I placed buckets under the leaks and cleaned up the mess, I sent a text to Mr. Ambrosio just to let him know it was happening. I was shocked when I received a reply from him offering to drive to my house and help me clean up. This was not Vanguard’s issue but they were willing to help. That action spoke loud and clear to me as to the character of Vanguard and Mr. Ambrosio. Last but not least, we are very pleased with the product we received. In conclusion, I cannot say enough good things about Vanguard and their team. If you have guttering work that needs to be taken care of, they should be your guys.

Excellent, very nice, pleasant people to deal with. Very good job replacing the screens in my house, caulking the windows, and fixing my front door. Very pleased with everything.

John and his team did a wonderful job and are very easy to work with. They went above and beyond what was expected from them. John called me back to go over some details and informed me of other things that I was not even aware of. I really appreciated the feedback.

Everything went great! We needed a single run, seamless gutter on our mother in law suite. John was immediately responsive and was able to come out and give a quote that beat other like companies in the area. The work was done quickly and efficiently. Our gutter looks great and the small screen repair was perfect. We are more than satisfied and would recommend him to anyone and re-hire again in the future.

They are excellent, fantastic A+., above A . He is perfect

John is responsive, articulate, well-priced and does quality work. You won't go wrong with Vanguard for your gutter work.

John did a beautiful job. Top notch! going to have him do a screen enclosure for my front porch :)

Very happy with all aspects of their work. From the initial call to the final handshake when the job was done every member of the Vanguard team was polite, punctual and professional. This was not a routine job. My roof had rain gutters going only half way around my roof on the second story. I needed the contractor to match the color of the existing rain gutters and integrate the new gutters into the existing gutters plus add additional downspouts. The first meeting, they came out to measure and gave me a fair estimate on the spot. They came out again to confirm the color match to the existing gutters before the work would begin. Then their crew came out to do the installation. It went very smoothly even though they had to do some custom fitting that was necessary to tie into the existing rain gutter system. And, this work was done around the second story roof 25 feet up! They finished in just a few hours and cleaned up completely as they prepared to leave. They also stuck to their original estimate - no surprises after the job was done. I was very impressed with this company. I understand that they do other types of work and I am thinking of using them for a different project sometime this Summer.

I would highly reccomend this company for gutter installation. They responded quickly to my request for an estimate, priced fairly, and scheduled services promptly. The crew was professional, polite and courteous, answered any questons, and kept the area clean and tidy though the installation process. Very pleased with the end result. Outstanding work! Excellent company!

Very good. Really professional, cleaned up good and on time.

John was quick to respond after initial contact, was prompt with setting a meeting for estimate. His company provided a fair price and a prompt instillation. Workers were polite and clean. A great experience overall with this company. I would highly recommend their services.
