Description of Work: I purchased a big deal to have a roof inspection and some minor maintenance performed. We had just bought the house and knew some work was needed. The appointment was very easy to schedule and Jay was great to work with. His crew arrived right on time. I mentioned to them that there was some siding that was loose and causing damage to our roof. I didn't expect that there was much that could be done, however, Home Wise not only fixed the siding but also performed far more repairs than those that were included in the deal. They also took picture documentation of everything that was fixed and all other issues discovered. Thy were very thorough and went above and beyond. Jay called personally to debrief me on the work done and talk me through what they had discovered. Being a first time homeowner I had a lot of questions. Jay was very patient and answered all of my questions - all in all I think he spent nearly an hour going over everything with me and educating me about my roof, attic and insulation. Home Wise will be my go to going forward - they are a quality company and very professional. I highly recommend their services.

Description of Work: I thought that all I needed was roof maintenance because when I bought this home last December, the previous owner disclosed that the roof was new / 2 years old. When Jay Gleason came out to do the maintenance, he found that the roof was much older and needed extensive repair and/or replacement, so there was no point in performing the maintenance covered by the coupon. I am asking for a refund at his suggestion, which I feel is a very honest way for him to handle this situation.

Description of Work: I had purchase an "Interior Attic Inspection with a Thermal Camera, Plus a Mold Growth Inspection". I was not concerned about the mold but was concerned about energy loss through the attic. Jay called and came out to the house promptly but after walking through the attic it became clear that what he was really interested in was in replacing my roof which had been damaged in the June 29th "direcho" storm. I never did get the thermal camera inspection which he said I didn't need (I do need more insulation). While Jay was very affable and knowledgable, and I believe could do quality work, I feel I did not get what I signed up for.

Response from The Home Wise Pros Roofing
A thermal camera is used to identify areas that heat or cold my be escaping from inside a properly insulated attic space. ( like around recessed lights or duct work) When the attic has a very small amount of insulation like this customer had its easy to see that heat and cold is escaping everywhere.This is why it wasn't necessary to use the camera. We did point out the roof damage to this homeowner. We didn't want him to spend money with us on insulation that was just going to be damaged by a leaky roof. We never did a formal inspected of the roof nor did we give him an estimate for the roof because we don't do roof repairs. We hope he appreciated the fact that most company's would have just sold him insulation and never mentioned the roof. We didn't want him to spent his hard earned money on soon to be damaged insulation. We are very sorry if the customer feels like he didn't get his money's worth out of the inspection. We will have to leave it up to you to determine if driving out to a house, climbing up and walking around an attic, inspecting and measuring the insulation, identifying a damaged roof and then being honest with the customer and telling him not to spend money with us on insulation until he has someone come out to repair his roof was worth the $45 he spent. I personally think it was a good deal. So good in fact that we stopped offer this deal. After you factor in the gas and time spent getting to the home and then the hour in the house and the $20 that Angies List takes out of the deal there wasn't anything left of our $25 portion. O I forgot we did get something else after all that a D. I'm thinking I would have had to build this customer a house for $45 in order for him to have given us an A. :) But seriously we will call this customer back and if they want us to come back out and climb in that attic again to use the camera we will do it and do it with a smile on our face because we sincerely what everyone of our customers to be happy and feel like they got a good deal.

Description of Work: Jay came out for a roof check. He sealed an opening around a pipe. Jay took a number of pictures to show me the condition of the roof. Explained that it could hold up but to think about the replacement, this was year 16 of a 20 year roof so it was something I need to be planning on. When I am ready to replace the roof I will be calling Home Wise Pros, I liked what I heard and saw.

Response from The Home Wise Pros Roofing
We did call this customer and told them that we were very busy. We explained to them that we would give them a call before the end of the month to schedule a date for us to come out to their home. Within days Angies List contacted us to let us know they had canceled and had been given a refund. I wish we could get out to everyone that called us the very next day. We don't want to hire part time help like a lot of company's do only to have problems with the quality of work. Sadly this sometime means our customers need to wait a little while for us to come out to their home and give them the quality work we are known for. Some customers just don't want to wait and for this we are very sorry but there is nothing we can do about it.

Description of Work: Jay Gleason the owner was and is a great help. I needed a minor repair at the moment and he taught me some things I could do on my own very inexpensively to most likely fix it. I really appreciate his honesty and I would definitely call when I have a more major need.

This is completed above.
Description of Work: We needed a new roof. This was our first experience contracting a roofer so we had a lot to learn. We contacted 4 different companies in all. Upon calling The Home Wise Pros I received a quick response with date and time set up for an estimate. Jay Gleason was punctual and extremely thorough with his estimate and explination of work needed to be completed. He took the time to sit down and explain with photos exactly how he approached a project and its outcome. He took pictures of our roof to show us areas of concern and course of recommended action. A week later he returned and gave us the estimate for the job. We had 4 seperate roofers come in to give us an estimate and Jay's estimate and job description were by far the best we received. We set a date and paid a $500 deposit. The day before the job the tiles and roofing items were delivered. On the day of the job the roofers arrived as scheduled, they tarped the yard and were at work quickly. By 2:30 the roof was already completed, the yard cleaned and everything in order. Jay met me that evening and went through the many photos he had taken of the job as it progressed. Jay and his crew did an excellent job and we would definetly recommend them!

Description of Work: I did get the Big Deal for roof sealing. They were very quick to get back to me about scheduling. After we scheduled an appoinment, they came out to do the work. They do not work on cedar shake roofs so called me at work to say they were sorry, but they do not work on cedar roofs. Although I did not actually get to use their services, I was impressed at how prompt they were in contacting me and keeping me informed of what they were going to do and ultimately, why they could not work on my roof. They were going to refund me. The person who called me was very friendly and courteous. It's unfortunate that they don't work on Cedar roofs, otherwise we would have used them.

Excellent
Description of Work: I purchased The Big Deal for $149.00 knowing I had a minor leak in the roof. The actual issue was detected in the inspection and pictures were emailed to me indicating the problem and when the repair was fixed. Homewise was upfront with the process, pricing and the estimate costs of potential problems that could be found. The quote to repair was actually less than originally priced. An excellent experience for a project that I have zero knowledge.

Response from The Home Wise Pros Roofing
We went to this customers’ home and met with the husband. We got up on the roof and photographed all areas of concern and showed them to the husband that was home at the time. We then went back on the roof and completed the roof maintenance package, which included minor repairs. We called back and gave the husband an estimate for additional work that wasn’t covered under the maintenance package. These items included replacing a dozen missing shingles and several rotting pipe collars. The homeowners’ wife did not communicate with her husband and was completely unaware of the work that was completed and the estimate that was given. I have since called the homeowners and have been assured that this incorrect review will be removed.

Response from The Home Wise Pros Roofing
This customer put this review under roofing. This was a attic inspection and not a roof inspection.It took us about 10 minutes to photograph and measure the customerss insulation. I could have sent someone that was in training that would have taken about 20 minutes to preform the same inspection but I'm not sure how this would have benefited the customer.

Description of Work: We had a small ongoing leak in the roof and we took advantage of your Big Deal to have some one come out and check the roof. They found an area around a pipe that had not been sealed properly when the roof was installed. They replaired the fitting around the pipe, primed and painted our metal chimney, and increased the size of our roof vent. We were very pleased with their work ethic. I would definitely recommend them.
