Eiseman Construction Co Inc

Terrible all around. The worst experience with a contractor in my life. Hired them to install a cedar shake roof on a 200-year-old home to Cedar Shake and Shingle Bureau (CSSB) specs (they are members of this organization) they sent an inexperienced crew, in an unmarked van and none of whom spoke any English. Communicating with them was impossible. The sales Rep was rude; placed blame on my husband and me for picking the wrong type of roof. Really???!! The CSSB rep told me cedar is the perfect roof for this house. And installed properly I believe it would have been. Where there is only supposed to be two nails per shingle and it should be nailed into the lathing, the roof was riddled with nails from a nail gun. They were poking through everywhere and in most places missing the lathing completely. The copper flashing was left with prints and caulk all over it. It looked like a job I tried to do myself. Completely unacceptable work quality and customer service. Eisman did end up ripping the entire roof off and agreed to install an asphalt shingle roof which is much easier to install. So after almost a year on back and forth, an asphalt shingle roof is what we ended up with just to be done with this company. They reimbursed us the difference that we had paid for a cedar roof but only gave us the check when I finally drove to there office in Chalfont to get it. This company has a good reputation I believe from when the husband ran the company. His wife is now running it, and she was not interested in responding to any of my emails throughout the whole ordeal.

Very well, have used them before and they always do very high quality work, one of the best around, never cuts corners, A++

.

They were extremelly professional and they really knew what they were doing. They delivered high class work. The crew was here every day on time. They are remarkable to work with. They advertise they do not need to return since they do the job right the first time.

They were terrible. It was a community project. We asked them to come back and check the roof, they even charged us for coming to check. They refused to fix the roof.

They are very good people. They are expensive, but I think that I got good value for the price. I would use them again, despite the expense. I purchased the doors from them.

The company's estimate was considerably higher than the competitor and included materials of lesser value. The worst part of the experience is that the representative submitted an estimate for only one side of the house and had to return to make a complete estimate.

Overall the job did not go well. Eiseman installed the roof without adequate ventilation and as a consequence we have mold growing inside the attic. The roof Eiseman installed was inspected by Blue Bell Consulting, a A.S.H.I. certified inspector. The report from Blue Bell details how Eiseman did not ventilate the roof. I also have another report from a different inspector that says Eiseman did not ventilate the roof. The GAF Golden Pledge Warranty that I received states that the warranty does not apply to inadequate attic ventilation. Therefore, the GAF warranty is not enforceable. Blue Bell also performed a mold test on the black material that formed inside the attic on the plywood installed by Eiseman. The mold report issued by Blue Bell states that this material is mold. Mold would not be growing in the attic if there was ventilation. That is the purpose of the ventilation. Eiseman has refused to honor their 5 year installation warranty. I filed a claim in Small Claims Court. Eiseman did not respond to the claim so a judgement was issued in my favor. Eiseman appealed the judgement and the case was automatically moved up to the Court of Common Pleas. I consulted an attorney and determined that the cost to adjudicate in the Court of Common Pleas was cost prohibited and the matter was not pursued.

They seemed knowledgeable and prompt. They came back when there was a problem.

We received a well written estimate. Our dealings with this contractor was positive and all contacts were very professional. However the cost of repair was the highest of three estimates I received. Almost 50% higher that the lowest bid. We chose another contractor.

Their work is of the highest quality. They did a great job.

Eiseman Roofing Company did an excellent job. I am very pleased with it. I will continue to use them. They were on time. Everything was done in one day. They cleaned up after themselves. The office staff is really good. Plus the owner of the company will call you up and ask how everything is going. I will use them again.

They were excellent, they were really great. The foremen came out to check on the job quite a bit. The people that did the roof covered the windows and everything and they came here at 8 and by 2 they were done. When the job was finished, they went around the whole property and cleaned up the nails and everything. It was one guy and his helper that did the siding, and they were excellent. One of the employees from the company called and asked how everything went. I even wrote a letter to them to say how great they were. I will use them again in the future and would recommend them to everybody.

Awful. After the skylights were installed we had a heavy rain. Water started to pour into our house from the one corner of the skylights, we never had our roof leak before Eiseman replaced the skylights. We tarped off the area around the skylights and the leak stopped. We had Eiseman come back to repair the leak and the denied that the replacement of the skylights caused the leak and charged us $1200 to repair the leak and the ceiling damage. They had to have caused the leak when replacing the skylights because the roof didn't leak before that and the area didn't leak when the tarp was on the roof over the skylights. We ended up hiring another roofer to fix Eiseman's mistake.

Excellent job all around; very high quality materials were used; the crews were well supervised and showed up on time and when they said they would be here. New roofing surface is beautiful and we receive many compliments on it. They completed the job in 3 days, working 10+ hour days in high heat. They also did an incredibly great job cleaning up nails and debris after the roof was completed, using special magnetic equipment to find nails. Eiseman Roofing is an extremely professional organization and we would recommend them to neighbors and friends.

Job was to fix two leaks. After work was completed both areas still leaked. Eiseman said they do not gurantee their repairs. Call A. Brooks Construction who repaired both leaks properly.

They showed up on time. They looked at the problem, proposed a good solution and carried it through. The workers are professional and cleaned up after themselves.

They worked very hard. They were here the day they said. They were punctual and worked till dark every night. They were all nice. They didn't make any decisions until the foreman was present. He made all of the decisions. They consulted us on every instance.

It was a 3 week nightmare. The workers started much earlier than they were supposed to making the process of getting out of the house almost impossible. They continued working well after dark with no lights. (???) I watched with horror as one worker dropped a huge piece of plywood 3 stories up to my driveway below. It narrowly missed my window and bent my gutters (which never got fixed) The worst part was the sloppiness of the workers. I was finding roofing material,staples and nails all over my property 1 year after the work was completed. Not to mention the 3 flat tires from all the nails left on the driveway.

THIS COMPANY STAYED RIGHT ON THEIR ESTIMATED TIME AND THEY WERE THERE AT 7 AM AND FINISHED AT 3 PM. YOU COULD NOT EVEN TELL THEY HAD BEEN THERE. EVERYTHING WAS COMPLETELY CLEANED UP. VERY EFFICIENT.
