I had called and asked for a quote. The "Sales Manager" asked many questions that were not pertinent and this was offensive to me. He then stated he could not use existing new windows I have, he would need to install his custom windows. When I called in and the receptionist said she would have the Sales Manger call me and he would want both of us there so we could make a decision - that was my first red flag. I will not be using this company nor will I recommend them.

Response from Slavin Construction
[removed member's name], I have to say I am surprised and a little caught off guard by the review I just received from you on Angies List, regarding our conversation on 6-15-15? You had originally contacted our organization and your call was transferred to me, I set and confirm all in bound potential appointments. As you stated in your review, " I was asking non pertinent and offensive questions;" to you? (1) You called us requesting to come out to your house to "Fix" all of your windows due to a previous botched attempt by a "shady contractor" (your words). You also informed me that, (A) you had no written contract with this man, only verbal. (B) No permits were pulled for the project, and the contractor would not respond back to you. The Questions I was asking were simply to try to understand if we could help you out with your dilemma? You asked me to "repair" your windows and I told you that we are not a window repair company, and we only do full custom replacement windows. I'm sorry if our policy on repairs offended you but I cannot commit to work that is not in our company parameters, I hope you can appreciate that. The last issue I wanted to clarify was your request for Slavin Construction to come out to your house and have us draft you a written estimate for you to use in a lawsuit you had filed, that was to start in 3 days against this contractor? As I explained to you, we are generally not inclined to extending our good name and Impeccable reputation for the purpose of aiding people in legal matters? I'm not sure there are many company's that would be willing to due such a thing? We are sorry you had such a horrible experience with this "contractor", and hope you can understand our explanation and reasoning for not being able to assist you in your matter. Thank you for originally considering us, we wish you the best outcome with your legal fight, and hopefully resolution with your windows. Sincerely, Jim Bacon General Sales Manager Slavin Construction

The manager came to our home as promised and spent nearly two hours measuring and calculating. I have no doubt that they would have done an amazing job, but the estimated cost was triple what we ended up spending. In a world where money isn't an object, I'd hire them in a minute.

Response from Slavin Construction
Dear Member, Thank you for your praise of our company! We appreciate that! Unfortunately, we did not earn your business do to our price being higher than some others. Your comment that "you have no doubt that we would have done an amazing job," is exactly correct! What we have found over the last 22 years serving the community with our home improvement services is this, quality does cost more. The roofing game is littered with "low ball" bidders looking to entice people with extremely low estimates, usually with disappointing results. There are many way to get your price low, usually it means sacrificing quality in the areas of materials, craftsmanship(subcontractors),warranty, lack of insurance and service. None of which Slavin Construction is known for doing! Thank you again for your feedback, we appreciate it. Hopefully you will consider us again in the future with any other home improvement projects you are considering! Sincerely, Jim Bacon Sales Manager Slavin Construction

My husband and I called three times inquiring about the price and their availability to complete the project. On all three occassions, we never received a call back regarding our project. To add insult to injury, a sign was just placed in my neighbor's yard, indicating they will be doing work for their home. Are they blind, we live two doors down the street, and we never received a call back to say and quot;we can't get to the project, we are sorry for the delay, etcand quot;. In retrospect, it's probably good we didn't wait on them because the project may have gone just like their customer service. I don't recommend them.

The supplier was very dependable and flexible with scheduling. I called them a couple of times to re-schedule my job, and they were very accommodating. Once they started my job, the same crew came back each day until it was finished. It took about 3 1/2 - 4 days. The crew leader made sure I was happy before they left. They also found some and quot;issuesand quot; with some of my roof venting and offered to replace it while they did the roof. The quality of the job was very good - not perfect, but very good. The crew leader was fairly professional, while the workers seemed more like hired labor with varying amounts of experience. They cleaned up the worksite each day and never left a mess. Overall, I have no complaints and would not hesitate to hire them for another job - I'm considering hiring them for more involved jobs like windows and siding.

I provided engineering drawings with dimensions and sketsches of desired finished product. I spent about and hour with the estimator, he told me he wanted to have some other individuals to come over and take a look at the work also. I never heard back from them after he left. I called once but never received a return call. No indication from them if they were interested in the work or if they even wanted the job. Would have been nice if they would have called and informed me of their intent. I don't feel I should have to make numerious attempts to find out if they want my money.
