Description of Work: They removed my existing slate shingles and replaced them with asphalt shingles. It was a very long process to actually get them to come to do the work. They came to the house 4 or 5 times for estimating. It was such a long and annoying process that I almost decided to just not have the work done but the price was so good that I decided to go with them. | |The actual work only took two days. They had a lot of men working and my house is very small so it was quick.

Response from JOHN ASCH CONTRACTING INC. / ASCHROOFING.COM
The contract was signed by the home owner on 12/12/14. The owner said the roof was done on 12/30/14. It normally takes about 2 weeks to get a township building permit. Work can not be done without a permit. A permit can not be applied for with out a signed contract. If any one does the math, you can see that we started the roof job with in about 2 days after getting the permit. Owner said she got a low price & I am the only roofing company giving a 20 year labor & material guarantee. (not a warranty) I have the signed contract for any one who wants to see the dates. Sounds to me that I should have been given an A+ ,based on the facts. Sorry the owner seems confused.

Description of Work: We had a leak near the chimney and some loose shingles in another location. The contractor set up the job in a very timely manner, and completed the work as promised. The price was fair. I'd recommend them.

Description of Work: I have been finding water in the middle of my basement floor right underneath the dining room. Examining the dining room ceiling, I felt the ceiling was slightly soft. John Asch came over, said "There's no stains, no rood leak." He then suggested I go into the attic (it's really small, and I'm not) or he could have his guys go up there (for $100+) to see if there was any problem. He obviously didn't want the work. |Weeks later, we heard a drip, and the ceiling was even softer. Got someone else who walked the roof for 10 minutes, found the problem, and fixed it. |Don't use this guy. He's too full of himself.

As the owner said in his own words. I offered to send down 2 men to go in the attic and check out his problem. He was not willing to spend a few dollars to pay for my men to go there. Since he did not want us to do it. I thought maybe he was tight for money and I would try to help him out with some free advice. He did not want to go in the attic, or pay me to do it, or take advice. Not much more i could do. I drove out there for free, using up my time and fuel. You cant make every one happy..........

Nothing more to add
Description of Work: He called me back and lectured me for 5 minutes never once asking any questions but only wanted to SELL me a new skylight. Did not let me get ONE word in; only at the end when I told him how rude he was! All I needed was 5 minutes of dialogue to ask questions before an estimate but this guy obviously does not care about business -- he is arrogant and rude. Don't bother...

My company has installed over 200 skylights. I have all 200 references, names and addresses. They all got a ten year guarantee. (Not warrenty). Not one of my skylight installations has leaked, including during hurricane Sandy. This upset client has never installed one skylight, but she does not like my information and advice. To bad. She would have been lucky to have hired me. As always I am here to do great work, not hold your hand and talk softly to you. If you are the type of customer that loves to talk on and on needlessly, about a simple situation like a leak please call some other contracter. I am to busy fixing the leaks, not talking about them.

Terribly.
Description of Work: After several calls, we finally heard back from this company, who came out to give us an estimate for a new skylight and new gutters. He was, at least, on time. However, as soon as he entered the house he launched into a monologue about how we needed a new roof. We could barely get a word in edgewise, since he seemed to want to just hear himself pontificate on how who ever did our roof is an idiot and blah blah blah. We aren't against getting some roof work done, or even a new roof, if needed, but when someone comes in with a rude, pushy attitude, they won't be getting our money.

I am happy that all my hard work over the many decades has caused 95% of all clients who have used my services to rate me as an " A ". I find it interesting that of the approx. 8 " F " ratings that I have received, have all been from people who have never used my services. As far as this client's opinion of me: I drove there at 5:00PM rush hour traffic. Was right on time, as she mentioned. Spent 45 minutes driving each way for free to look at her roof and skylight. After 33 years in the buisness I am expierenced enough to tell her roof was in real bad shape before I even parked fully. The honest answer is her roof is bad. If she can't except that fact, or needs someone to hold her hand and talk softly, it's not me. I could have ripped her off and sold her a new skylight, as she wanted and installed it into a bad roof. But, I don't work that way. I am honest. If you read her comment, her biggest issue is that I told her the truth to fast. I guess next time I will hang around longer to get a free cup of coffee before telling the client your roof is shot. John Asch.......

Outstanding
Description of Work: John and his entire crew were knowledgable and courteous. I thought I needed new gutters but John said mine would last another twenty years. He repaired my old ones with hangars (original bolts were coming out). I also needed a new roof. It turned out that I needed all new plywood for my job. John gave me very reasonable price for this unanticipated development. I saw the plywood that was taken off and there was no question that it was necessary. Job finished in a timely manner and very professionally done. I would gladly recommend John Asch. John is direct and to the point. If you are looking for hearts and flowers and alot of BS maybe not a good choice for you. If you are looking for straight talk and quality work at a fair price this is your guy.

Mr. Asch responded promptly after I left a voice mail. He kept me informed of what to expect from the repair and kept me up to date of any updates from the crew that did the work. The work done looks just great. Also, they cleaned gutters during visit for additional fee. Overall very pleased with the work that was performed. Would recommend to any and all.
Description of Work: A small portion of my roofing tiles had come off at some point. A 3 foot by 3 foot area needed to be repaired.

Mr. Asch returned 1 phone call. We set up for him to look at our roof and give us an estimate. On the scheduled date, he called, saying he had a flat tire, but would get back to us the next day. He did not. We tried twice in the next 2 days to contact him, leaving messages each time. Mr.Asch never called us back.
Description of Work: None.

I am amazed that a home owner would take the time to complain about the fact that I got a flat tire, called to say I am sorry and could not make the appointment I guess it would have been better If I just didn't show up with out calling??

The owner came in person and did the work in person. He took the trouble to explain what he found and how he fixed it.
Description of Work: We had a leak and found this contractor through Angie's List. He was very prompt, professional, courteous and gave advice without the usual conflict of interest (e.g. he said our roof was badly installed, but did not say that we should replace it through him -- he indicated it would probably last about 5-7 years but could have lasted much longer had it been properly installed).

The entire process was painless and everyone we interacted with was professional and courteous, they called back when they said they would, arrived on time, and completed the job on time within the estimate. We have an odd color of gray on our townhouse, after the estimate, they sent a person over with the color swatches for the flashing so we could pick an appropriate color. It was a pleasure dealing with this company and their representatives.
Description of Work: Flashing needed to be replaced as it had blown off and was in bad shape.

Owner was brusque at first and listed his good qualities and why I should hire him. His sales person, Bernice, explained his behavior. They were able to come earlier than planned. Did excellent work and explained to me what they had done. The workmen are very professional. I would strongly recommend this company and they are experts in dealing with slate roofs.
Description of Work: Examined my slate roof and repaired flashing around chimney and replaced 6-7 slates
