THE ESTIMATOR FROM SWISTUN RETURNED MY CALL PROMPTLY AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK. WHEN HE ARRIVED AT MY HOME, HE TOOK ONE LOOK AT THE GUTTERS AND SAID, ''OH, WE DON'T DO THAT KIND OF WORK.'' HE WAS POLITE AND FRIENDLY, BUT APPARENTLY OUR OLDER HOME (100+ YEARS) HAD GUTTERS HIS COMPANY COULDN'T HANDLE. THERE SHOULD BE SOME WAY FOR SWISTUN TO DETERMINE THAT OVER THE PHONE TO SAVE A TRIP, BUT MAYBE NOT.

FROM THE BEGINNING, I WAS IMPRESSED BY THIS COMPANY. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS ARE TOP-NOTCH. AFTER SCHEDULING AN APPT, I RECEIVED A THANK YOU NOTE IN THE MAIL SAYING THEY WERE LOOKING FORWARD TO COMING OUT FOR OUR ESTIMATE. CHRIS RYBA, THE ESTIMATOR, WAS PROMPT AND PROFESSIONAL. AFTER WE RECEIVED THE FORMAL ESTIMATE (WHICH WAS IN A NICE FOLDER), WE THEN RECEIVED ANOTHER THANK YOU NOTE IN THE MAIL! WE RECEIVED 2 OTHER ESTIMATES AND THEY WERE THE HIGHEST, BUT WE WENT WITH SWISTUN B/C OF THEIR SERVICE. IF THEY WERE THIS GOOD IN TRYING TO GET THE BUSINESS, WE FIGURED THEIR WORK PRODUCT WOULD BE EQUALLY GOOD AND WE WERE RIGHT. AFTER THEY FINISHED CHRIS CALLED TO ASK HOW EVERYTHING WENT. WE ASKED HIM TO COME BACK B/C WE WANTED A COUPLE OF THINGS CHANGED AND HE CAME OUT WITHIN A WEEK AND GOT IT FIXED. ALL AROUND GREAT EXPERIENCE.

RESCHEDULED WITH CUSTOMER, WHILE OUR REPRESENTATIVE WAS DRIVING TO THE PROJECT SITE. - 09/01/04 - CUSTOMER DID NOT SHOW UP ON SCHEDULED MEETING, DUE TO HIS EMERGENCY SITUATION, AS WE LEARNED LATER. ESTIMATE WAS RESCHEDULED AGAIN FOR 09/09/04 AT 2:30PM. - 09/09/04 11:00AM - CALL FROM OUR OFFICE THAT WE ARE SORRY, BUT OUR REPRESENTATIVE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COME AT 2:30PM.

OUR REPRESENTATIVE MAILED FORMAL PROPOSAL TO CUSTOMER AT THE SAME DAY.

CASEY GAVE ME A DETAILED AND THOUGHTFUL ESTIMATE; I FELT THAT HIS RECOMMENDATION WAS WHAT NEEDED TO BE DONE AND NOT ONE THAT WAS DESIGNED TO MAXIMIZE HIS PROFIT. THE WORKERS DID A GREAT JOB; EVERYTHING WAS DONE AS PLANNED AND AFTER THEY FINISHED CASEY DID A DETAILED REVIEW OF THE WORK. I AM VERY SATISFIED WITH SWISTUN AND WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.

WHEN HE ARRIVED HE WENT ON THE ROOF AND AFTER ABOUT 15 MINUTES TOLD ME I DID NOT HAVE A GUTTER PROBLEM, BUT A GUTTER GUARD PROBLEM. HE SUGGESTED THAT I REMOVE THE GUTTER GUARDS AND THAT WOULD STOP THE OVERFLOW OF WATER THAT OCCURRED DURING HEAVY RAINS. EVEN THOUGH I DID NOT HIRE HIM I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO PEOPLE WHO NEED GUTTER REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR. HE WAS PUNCTUAL, VERY FRIENDLY, AND VERY HONEST. HE COULD HAVE TOLD ME I NEEDED ALL NEW GUTTERS AND I PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BELIEVED HIM. I THOUGHT MY GUTTERS WERE LEAKING, WHEN IN REALITY THEY WERE OVERFLOWING BECAUSE OF USELESS GUTTERGUARDS.
Description of Work: THE PERSON WHO CAME TO SEE ME, CHRIS RYBA, WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND FRIENDLY. WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT BY PHONE AND HE SENT A CONFIRMATION BY MAIL.
