Avoid K & C Construction out of Lorain OH & Wakeman Ohio at all costs if you value your home or your money! They agreed to tear off our old roof, replace any damaged wood, replace soil stacks and chimney flashing, install ridge vents, and install new lifetime shingles, as well as repair an area of damaged ceiling drywall in the living room where there had been a leak, and to then paint the entire room (ceiling and walls). They were also paid to replace a small area of damaged vinyl siding on one side of the house as well as re-shingle a shed, All of this was agreed to in late November 2019 Work did begin in November 219. However, he tore the shingles off our home the week of Thanksgiving 2019 and as of 5/18/20, my home is still only partially re-shingled, with 1/2 of it having no shingles installed at all. Because of the state of the roof being only partially completed for the whole of the winter and spring thus far, multiple NEW leaks and basement flooding that did not exist before have formed causing significant damage to our home. It has been constant promises to complete the work and countless excuses for no-shows to complete the work for 6 months now. It is one broken promise after another and one feeble excuse after another for why he cannot complete the work. He has also done the same to our neighbors home, who's shingles were removed in January 2020 and there is still not one single shingle installed as of 5/18/20, as well as removal of a toilet he was supposed to replace in Jan 202 that is yet to be re-installed.. And the same pattern of excuses for why it cannot get done and broken promises to be there to complete the work has been demonstrated. Do not pay this man or his company any money in advance, or until the work has been completed, or you will dread the day you enter into a business relationship with them.

HORRIBLE! BEWARE! Do yourself a favor and DO NOT even give them the opportunity to quote. They come in low in hopes of getting the job. They demand money up front to purchase supplies and pay workers. The amount of time it took to start and do the work was TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. Had to call them all the time to ask when they'd be back. When I refused to pay the final installments, as so much of the roof was not complete, I began receiving threatening phone calls. After 4 MONTHS we hired a real contractor to come out and repair the "shoddy" work and complete the job. He did this in a couple days BY HIMSELF. The photos taken of the "work" (I use that term loosely) performed were UNBELIEVEABLE! They cut the freeze guard in half on the edges of the house, there were huge holes sliced into the felt, they didn't do any of the "difficult" work, they nailed hundreds of long nails into and through the soffet (sp?). It was a most unpleasant, stressful situation.
Description of Work: They were hired to tear-off and install a new roof.

Response from K & C Construction
First of all we are sorry you feel the way you do with the job that was performed. On our behalf, this house was a complete tear off with over 80 sheets of plywood that needed to be replaced. The prior person that repaired this roof shingled over top of holes and patched holes with metal that caused leaks. This home is over 100 years old so when the tear off began everything started falling apart such as the soffits, moldings, gutters and siding. There were so many holes in the siding there was absolutely nowhere for us to install step flashing or apron flashing. We thought this job would have been completed in a 6 week time frame but with the nightmare it became it took longer. This was a very steep roof with limited access that even the homeowners said no one wanted to tackle it. There were so many repairs that had to be done to make this roof complete with a legitimate warranty that the homeowners would agree upon then revoke their agreement. We lost a couple thousand dollars on this job and the fact that the person that finished this job in a couple of days was because we were 99% done with it ourselves. We believe the homeowner wanted $20,000 worth of work for $10,000.

DO NOT HIRE THEM!!! They give a decent quote and then don't show up when they are suppose too. They also do a horrible job, we had to pay someone more than originally quoted to fix the mess Keith Krasienko made. There was 5 diff. time they were suppose to show up and never came or called. They promised me back my deposit if they didn't finish it by a certain date. I requested that deposit and they told me they mailed it and never did. They don't answer any phone calls or emails. HORRIBLE HORRIBLE company. You will regret doind any business with them.
Description of Work: They were hired to mud, tile, and finish our master bath. They came one day to mud and did a horrible job that had to be fixed later. They never came back and have not refunded our deposit as promised. They also trashed our carpet.
