Buresh Home Solutions, Inc.

They started when the weather turned bitter cold and were done in a couple of days. Everyone I worked with at Buresh was fantastic. The scheduler worked with me to establish a start date as I had just got out of the hospital and was not staying at home. They gave me an estimate and that's exactly what it cost. And the crew was so nice and very professional. The work they did looks great. They followed up and really cared about us being satisfied. We will use them for whatever comes up in the future.

Painter was nice and patient with me as I selected colors. Power washed the house the week before painting - painting took 2 days and looks very nice. Lead on gutters was also very friendly and professional. In and out of there in a day! One section of gutters had a lean the wrong direction and they got back out quickly and fixed it. The only issue was that I never received the photos of the installation of the gutters for the guarantee.

I first contacted them in early April of 2014 and signed a contract on April 21, 2014. I was told it would be about 30 days for the screened room to be cut to spec. They called around the first week in June and set a time to begin work that week. I waited around that day, but they did not show up or call. I called them and was told that they crew was tied up and all appointments were "tentative" at any rate. We made another one, and again no one showed up. They did call me and say they were still delayed..which is believable given that the weather was not cooperating. They were finally able to get here on July 7-8 and completed the work in a timely manner. The crew was professional, speedy and they did a wonderful job cleaning up the site. They did say that they had been delayed, but denied knowing that the front office had told me they were scheduled. A few weeks later I called them to have the gutters replaced across the front of the screened area. They gave me a quote and said they would call when the crew was coming over. They told me I would not have to be home for this, as I had asked given the previous experience. About two weeks later I heard a truck outside (no call ahead) and it was the gutter crew. I went out to greet them and they were surprised to hear that they were only doing a piece across the front of the house...they had been told they were doing the whole house! I am glad I was home. The crew was professional, and completed what I needed in a timely manner, and cleaned up the site. In December I noticed that one of the top rails had torqued pretty badly when we had sub-zero temps. I was not sure if it was an installation defect or just Iowa weather, but I called and the young man who did the initial installation came by about a week later and put a shim above the rail. I notice now that the screen in that top corner has pulled out, probably due to the shim's placement raising the rail. The upshot is, the crews are professional, cheerful and work quickly. The communication between the crews and the front office and the customers is not good. I would not tell people not to use them, only to pay attention and expect delays and very little communication from the office. I do not know if I will use them again, but it is more a front office thing than a crew thing for me.

I needed new doors for my home and searched Angies List for recommendations. Buresh Home Solutions came very highly recommended. I contacted them twice. The first time, I had to postpone the appointment because I couldn't afford to have the work done. They sent me a very nice note thanking me for my interest and asking me to consider them again if my situation changed. When it did, I remembered that note and called them. Brian came to my home to discuss options for new entry doors. Pella is a wonderful quality product but I thought it would be too expensive. Brian took my quote for what I could afford and asked me to let him do some checking. He worked hard to find affordable doors. Installing the doors turned out to be a much larger job than they had planned, but the guys doing the work never complained as my old house presented one challenge after another. Fitting the doors into my home was very difficult, but they didn't charge me a penny more than the estimated amount. There were special touches along the way done to make the doors work and look their very best. When I needed a transition piece to fill in a spot on the floor, they made one and it is beautiful. I would highly recommend them.

Wonderful job. Very professional. Left no mess. Would definitely use Buresh in the future for other services.

Originally we thought we needed a new roof. Jason Grassley from Buresh, along with several other contractors provided bids and the Buresh bid seemed very fair. One of the other contractors however suggested our problem could be repaired and the roof did not actually need replacement, but the repair job was too small for it to be worth it for them. I invited Jason back and he agreed to do the repairs. We signed a contract but it was January so had to wait for warmer weather to do the work. Months went by, I tried contacting them once and got no reply. Finally, Jason called (I think it was July) and promised the work would get done in the "next week or two". Weeks go by and nothing. I called again and he promised to contact his guy and get it scheduled. Nothing. Again I called and we scheduled a time on the weekend for his guy to come. His guy (I think his name was Gilbert) called and couldn't make it due to family issues. We rescheduled for the following weekend. Finally he showed up. I thought he was coming to perform the work but he just looked at the roof and chimney, asked whether materials had already been delivered (which they had not) and promised to call back in the next couple days. Nothing. On and on. Finally, October and I am looking for another contractor. I am mad at myself for letting this string out so long but Buresh has been unbelievable.

The job went well. I was kept well informed of the workers' schedule, and everyone behaved in a very professional manner. Installation was up to my expectations. They came back promptly to address one small problem on the exterior of one of the windows. I would use this company again.

The crew arrived on time to replace shingled roofs on my house and garage in November 2013. Most work was completed in 2 days, but freezing rain prevented finishing one section on the house. The crew did return a week later on Thanksgiving Day to complete the job. They left lots of debris from the job in my yard and bushes surrounding the house, and several downspout extensions which were crushed by falling roofing materials. Some were repaired but one very badly damaged extension was not replaced despite assurances it would be. The following spring after the snow melted I discovered my chimney cap in my back yard. On inspection it had clearly been damaged and reattached to the chimney pipe with only roofing nails, which is why it blew off. Checking in the attic I discovered debris left in the attic that were not cleaned up from the job in the fall and the roof hatch to the widow's walk area at the top of the roof had also been left ajar, allowing birds, etc. into the attic. Going up to the flat widow's walk I discovered the rubber roof on that section (where the crew had stored shingle bundles and their other materials) had been ripped away from all but one corner, exposing the underlying waferboard to the weather. Several areas of metal flashing surrounding the widow's walk that sat over the new shingles had been left bent and damaged. When I spoke to Jason from Buresh he told me his crews were very good and could not possibly have done such a poor job or left the damage. Checking photos I took during the roof work they clearly showed the chimney cap securely in place in the morning, gone in mid-afternoon and re-attached later that afternoon in a damaged condition. I had to argue at length with Buresh until they finally came and cleaned up and repaired the damage done and fixed other poor-quality work. The foreman told me that the people on the crew that had worked on my roof the previous fall that had done such a poor job no longer worked for the company. Frankly, based on the excellent ratings for Buresh here on Angie's list and at the Better Business Bureau I was surprised to have such poor quality work performed. Buresh did eventually fix the problems and repaired the damage they caused but it took proof that damage was done by their crew and a lot of arguing to get it done.

A man with the last name of the company showed up when I was told he would, which in construction is a huge plus. He did his thing and sent me a competitive bid when he said he would - another huge plus whenever dealing with a construction contractor. I have not yet decided to accept his bid or not. But if I do, I'll bet dollars to doorknobs that his crew will be here when he says they will be.

Was great, sometimes difficult because I work 2-10:30 not their fault.

From the time of contract signing it took more than 3 months to start as they told me they lost a crew and only had 1 remaining and were backed up form previous years commitments. Ryan did a good job painting but was a 1 man show most of the 2 weeks it took to do the job. He was very professional but very quiet. Clean up was poor. I found the office staff to be Tamara to be very responsive and friendly. I would use them again but would pin down a date prior to signing a contract.

The two men who did our work did a great job(minus the damage they did),but the communication from within the company is horrible! I signed a contract with them June 10th with about 3 weeks,reported, to begin our repair.I waited until 5 weeks from that date to contact them for an update.I called three different days to talk to a secretary and Shelby. I was told that that they were waiting for the crew to be able to determine when they could do my window.I asked to be called back that day,Thursday, with any information.Friday came with no phone call so at 4pm so I emailed Tamara.I immediately got a phone back from Shelby stating it would be another 3 weeks.The next week, I received a phone call from Tamara stating that they could start the project tomorrow.When the guys left,I noticed that where they had laid their ladder against the gutters was now dented, drooped, and scratched.Several phone calls & a conversation with Tamara still give us no info on when they will fix it(3 days ago).

Overall the job went well. The ladies answering the phone and the work crew were courteous, professional and pleasurable to do business with. The color of the new siding matches the old quite well and the crew happily cleaned up when the job was done. The only negative to this transaction was dealing with Bryan (I assume he's the boss) over the phone. When the crew was about halfway through the repair, they informed me that several of the panels they were sent out with were of the wrong type and that they were trying to get the correct ones. So I called Buresh's office to try and get some clarification as to what the deal was. Shelby was apologetic about the inconvenience and explained that their supplier had made a mistake. She put me on hold and Bryan picked up the phone. So I told him why I was calling, what the crew and Shelby had both told me, and mentioned that so far I wasn't too happy with the way the job was going (not knowing if it would be completed today, and if not, when). Honestly, I wasn't expressing displeasure with anyone in particular, just at the situation. Unfortunately, Bryan became somewhat defensive and short with me, as though I were accusing him personally of screwing up. I assured him that was not the case and that any reasonable homeowner would be bothered with a work crew showing up to do a job and not having the correct material. A simple, professional apology and some assurance would have put me at ease, but Bryan was hesitant to offer either and seemed more inclined to argue rather than alleviate my concerns. In the long run, the crew was able to secure the correct siding panels and complete the job in a timely manner. As previously mentioned, they were friendly and professional throughout.

They were very professional and prompt. Cleaned up after they were done.

It went pretty good but I had to have them come back out to replace some of the shingles that didnt get all the way down.

They did an excellent job. They were on time, checked over everything and inspecting everything before the job was finished to make sure it was right. The painter also did a great job. We were very happy with the price.

They were willing to come to my home to give me a bid. They built a 16 x 12 deck with a 5 x 9 extension deck. I am extremely pleased with the deck. It looks professional. The workmen were good about letting me know when they would arrive and when they would be back. They cleaned up each day, and completed it in a reasonable amount of time. I had asked that it be completed by a certain date, but they let me know as time went on, but after I signed the contract, that that date would not be possible. I will definitely use this company again.

It went very well. They did a nice job. They checked in with the time of regular basis, respond questions, stood behind their work. They had an accident where they broke the window and they stood behind that and got that all fixed. They could happen anyway.

The install went smooth and they were professional. The main problem was from the beginning it was very hard to contact Tammy to find out if the windows had come in and to get an install date scheduled. I would call and she was never available to take the call, so they would take a message for her to call back. It took too long to call back. Should have more than one person to schedule installs in this computer age.

Their work could have been better. I don’t think they did a good job as they should have. The roof is okay. The sidewalk was on top of our regular lawn. It hasn’t cracked or anything but it wasn’t landscaped the same way as it was when they started. They either put less cement or they dug too deep or something. It doesn’t have the same landscaping that it had before. Other than that it works. My experience with them was average; it wasn’t great. The work wasn’t complete, the sidewalk wasn’t done well. We also had our gutter replaced and they had to come back and fix that gutter because it wasn’t properly done. They did come back and did a better job on the gutter. They did follow through on the gutter and it turned out to be pretty good.

Workers were efficient. No issues. Project finished as expected.

It went pretty well. Overall, we were pretty satisfied. They are not flawless and they made a mistake but they did make it right and corrected any issues that we had.

I think they did a very good job. They did a good job. The first guy who came over directed us for a home inspection with a very reasonable price. For this job, they were punctual, and we got his job with a reasonable price. Overall, we will grade them an A.

Buresh was top notch, as usual. I've used them for windows in the past too. I originally called for a gutter cleaning and installation of gutter guards. I knew the gutters were in not in great shape, and wanted to put off new ones for a while. However, their man indicated some of the gutters were not draining properly should be replaced. They called with a very fair estimate and were able to do the work later that week. I arrived home just as they were finishing up and their installer took me on a little tour of the install. This is an older home on a unique lot so it presented some challenges, and they were able to meet those challenges. They did a fantastic job. It ws nice watching the gutters drain away rain water during the next storm and feeling secure that they helped protect the house.

Went well. the guy the contracted to do this was very nice and did a very nice job.
