Description of Work: I hired Ft Selden to repair a few small leaks in a 2 yr old roof and some cracks in stucco. They did a FANTASTIC job! This was in '06. THEN I MADE A HUGE MISTAKE after the OCT '15 hail storm. I asked my insurance carrier to send out one of their PREFERRED PROVIDERS, knowing they "USED" to stand behind them. They sent out TALLENT ROOFING who has done nothing but being very UNprofessional, took 6 months to come to my home the first time and then put on a PATCHED roof when their estimate was to REMOVE and REPLACE. Summer rains came in '16 with tons of water intrusion through PATCHED roof and hail damaged parapet walls. Water intrusion down and into the framing causing the Elastomeric stucco to crack, blister, bubble, as well as water intrusion into the interior of my home causing blisters, bubbles on interior paint, cracks in walls and much more. They were DENIED a passing bldg code by the City Inspector in Sep '16 (11 months AFTER the hail storm) because water still coming into my guest bathroom vent and found I had a LAYOVER, not a REMOVE and REPLACE. Finally, they rec'd a passing bldg code AFTER 13 1/2 months from hail storm. A few weeks later I find BLACK TOXIC MOLD in a built in bench seat, my original contractor never put a seat on as designed. I have used this as a toy box for grandchildren. Hired KLEANFORCE ENVIRONMENTAL (EXCELLENT SERVICE, PROFESSIONAL, HONEST COMPANY, I HIGHLY RECOMMENT). The owner did the mold testing which is sent off to a BIOLAB for results which came in as the worst TOXIC MOLD. My insurance carrier and TALLENT ROOFING placed the blame on a bad window above the toy box and NO COVERAGE. i had to get rid of the TOXIC BLACK MOLD and hired KLEANFORCE to do the REMEDIATION vs my insurance carriers Preferred Provider in this area. KLEANFORCE found the TOXIC BLACK MOLD was coming from under a scupper that had been leaking since the hail storm, one of the only ones I never checked on. I had only 1 of 7 scupper/canalies worlking since TALLENT ROOFING "PATCHED" my roof djuring all the summmer rains from '16. Even after they rec'd a passing bldg code on the roof I had water intrusion in the same place, plus a pocket light over the tub. How could that have happened? TALLENT Roofing uses a lot of SILICONE to "fix" leaks, bad spots, very UNskilled labor and they have NOT stood behind all the damages they caused by waiting 6 months to PATCH my roof. NOW FOR WONDERFUL FORT SELDEN ROOFING....I called them in July '16 after my roof was PATCHED and lots of interior damages to see if they would just "look" at the interior damages. Esteban Renteria came out, he not only looked at all the interior damages up to that point, he volunteered to go up on my roof to inspect it. He took 5 photos of the ATROCIOUS job done by TALLENT ROOFING. Esteban Renteria started to explain to me the problems, mentioned to me the SOFT SPOTS he walked on while on top of my roof which would ROT, plus a lot of words I did not understand. I asked him to write down what he was telling me, a female, 70 yrs old, disabled 18 yrs and living alone. What he mentioned in short, was I WOULD have a LOT OF PROBLEMS if the roof was NOT REMOVED and REPLACED properly, water intrusion causing very bad problems. He didn't mention the word TOXIC BLACK MOLD but trying to WARN ME. I SOOOO WISH I HAD GONE WITH FORT SELDEN to START WITH 15 MONTHS (1 YR AND 3 MONTHS) AGO vs going with my insurance carriers PREFERRED PROVIDER "TALLENT ROOFING" who had some nice workers but the MOST RUDE, DISHONEST, UNETHICAL co-owner ? Victor SUNNY Rodriguez, The owner, is NOT returning my e-mails and will NOT stand behind his 5 yr WORKMANSHIP warranty. I find he is also, UNETHICAL, DISHONEST and CERTAINLY WOULD NEVER GIVE A GOOD RECOMMENDATION TO ANYONE WHO IS LOOKING TO HIRE TALLENT ROOFING with the owner, Kenneth Tallent out of McKinney, TX. IF YOU NEED A NEW ROOF OR JUST A REPAIR ON YOUR ROOF, DON'T TRUST, CALL ANYONE BUT FORT SELDEN ROOFING. THERE IS NO BETTER and Thank You to Esteban Renteria for not even charging me to give me a "heads up" on the damages that DID HAPPEN and at NO COST. FORT SELDEN, YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE I WILL HIRE OR RECOMMEND. Carol Berryma, 1874 Sedona Hills Pkwy, Las Cruces NM 88011
