Tim Taylor met with me and did a free roof and siding inspection. He provided a comprehensive estimate and told me he would happy to be present when the insurance adjuster did his inspection. Tim shadowed the adjuster during his inspection and pointed out items the adjuster overlooked. Tim and the adjuster spent well over an hour on top of my roof in very hot temperatures as the adjuster was trying to say all of the hail damage was actually installation damage (7 year old roof). The adjuster finally agreed to a full replacement. Tim stayed in contact with and updated me on the scheduling during each step of the process. Taylor Builders crews were professional and polite. The crews did a respectable job of cleaning up at the end of each day. The only negative in the entire project was the amount of time it took for Tim to find the correct siding and vinyl window glaze replacement trim. The siding that the builder used was not a popular brand in the area and wasn't carried by Tim's distributors, he did manage to track it down and obtained more than enough for the damaged areas. The vinyl window glaze trim could not be located anywhere and Tim had to go to the manufacturer to get it. The delays were really not Taylor Builders fault.
Description of Work: Full replacement of roof (complete tear off of shingles and paper), fascia, gutters, downspouts, surround and trim on 2 garage doors and spot replacement of damaged siding and window trim from hail storm damage.

Terrible experience, terrible quality of work, terrible communication. The person we had done an estimate with and talked to (the owner's brother) quit responding to texts. The owner let us know that his brother was no longer working with him. I thought this explained the lack of communication, but this was just the beginning. Within the first day of framing/drywall, two workers very loudly started arguing with each other in the room about how the job is supposed to be done. One threatened to quit, and the other told him to go ahead and walk out the door. Workers would show up at random times unannounced, or not show up at all. After work was performed one day, the owner couldn't be bothered to even close the door behind him, leaving our patio door wide open for hours. Trim work was delivered to our house randomly one day and left outside on the patio, with many dings and dents in it. Once the drywall was completed, the owner and company had to be called back multiple times to fix multiple gashes and dents they had made in the drywall while doing trim work. Heating vent was left not fitting on the wall, attached roughly by two large screws. The owner told us they couldn't do anything because that was HVAC and they don't do that (the vent had nothing to do with the duct system, they just didn't want to do it correctly). After all of this, a week after they completed, the brand new ceiling cracked and started falling down. Unsatisfied with any of the work they had done, we reached out to another contractor. When we told the owner that we had to have their mistakes fixed by another company, he said we should have called him and he demanded full payment by the end of the week. We essentially just had to pay for a renovation twice because Taylor Builders is incapable of doing the professional work they promise. Don't get ripped off like we did. Hire somebody, anybody else! Least professional construction company I have ever encountered.
Description of Work: demo, reframe, drywall, and trim for a new baby room.

At first it was fine, However within 2 years I had random pieces of siding falling off of my home. I contacted them several times to try to get the pieces replaced. I am even willing to pay. They ignored me, kept pushing me off, and told me they had a full schedule. They made it seem like sending em a simple email was too much trouble for them. I just want a couple pieces of siding replaced.
Description of Work: My homes siding got completely replaced

They are very fast, did the house in four days and the roof in one day, Clean up was adequate. Their was a few little things that need to have some attention and Tim sent the crew back out. I supervised so it was done the way I wanted it. Tim subcontracted the stone work out, and they didn't level the top ledge stone, which was out of level three fourth of an inch. I.had then come back and I supervised the job. Tim and Sam are easy to work with and very helpful in helping you decide the correct color combinations and material.. Right before they put the roof on my home, they did a tear off and roof replace on an apartment house I own..Two years before they did tear off and replacement of the porch roof on that building. The cost for the porch was $3,000 and the cost for the building which is extremely steep was $10,000. It has been all most a year on the building and house, and three years on the porch and I have had no leaks. There Warranty is two years, I would prefer 5 years. Although I had to make a few minor adjustments, any inconvenience is more than offset by the savings you receive. Tim stayed with his quote and my roof and siding on my home look great. The apartment building looks nice as well.
Description of Work: Taylors builders did a tear off, replaced with a new Roof November 6th 2014. In May of 2015 they put on all ;Vinyl Siding,.Soffit, Facia, gutters, down spouts, and Stone on the lower part of the front of the house.

I filed a BBB claim because Tim Taylor himself made 2 appointments to work on my roof and no one ever showed up. Then Tim told the BBB that he never ever spoke to me. I produced copies of my cell phone bill, much to his chagrin. He never apologized or attempted to make it right. I had to hire someone that I did not find on Angies list.
Description of Work: He was supposed to come out and give me an estimate for work on my roof. I was ready to hire someone to get the job done.

Response from Taylor Builders
I went to this home measured it up told the people a price of $1100 and never heard anything back until they posted a bad response about my company on BBB. I believe this is someone trying to ruin businesses on angies list and BBB. They told me they would be there when I showed up no one was there and they didn't answer there phone.

Description of Work: We took advantage of a (somewhat) warm day and they replaced shingles on about 1/2 of my roof. Had to do it now because I had a leak. They will return this spring to do the rest. It was a cold day, and he was short-staffed, but they got the roof done in one day and cleaned up the next day. Hopefully the shingles will seal, but I trust him to do any re-work needed if there are problems.

Excellent! Price was very fair - Tim and his crew fit me in right away when they learned I had a leak. They finished entire job within a week - great to work with and very pleased with the result. I will be using Taylor Builders again for other projects.

We have not had the service done yet for the roof. He came out to give us the quote but he was installing windows for us anyway. He is very good. He is nice and he answers the phone. He shows up for work when he says he will. There ended up being a problem with the windows and he corrected it completely. He did what he said he was gong to do. We had talked briefly about what color we were going to use and then a month later when he did the windows the molding was the wrong color. So he ripped out the part that he did and put the correct color in all on his own time.
Description of Work: Taylor Builders gave us a quote for roofing. He also installed windows for us previously.

Received a quote from Tim within days of me calling him. Did the install the following week. Thought they could do it in one day. It took two days. Second day was mostly clean up. They did a nice job of cleaning up. Listened to loud Mexican music for two days. Not a big issue.
Description of Work: Tear off and replaced any damaged underlayment and replaced shingles. They quoted me the best price using top quality Owens Corning shingles.
