Description of Work: Replaced 5 Windows - Very professional. Chris and his team worked around my extremely busy and unpredictable military schedule. The install crew cleaned up nicely and did a superb job. Top quality work down to the last detail, even the caulk was seamless and neat.

Description of Work: Replaced my home's roof, and fixed the side door at garage. Top quality work. The roof was started and finished in one day. The clean up was complete, and the the crew departed before sunset. The neighbors have complemented on the workers and work. The door work was completed on a different day, and the quality of products and work are evident. We are very pleased as the team was responsive to our comments. Overall, from sales to completion, CUSTOM HOME IMPROVEMENT exceeded our expectations.

Description of Work: Roof replacement. It was not done well and I had to climb on the roof to find that out. Looked great from the street but looks are deceiving. They nailed new decking to rotted rafters. Removed decorative soffit work but refused to replace it and claimed it was not part of the roof. I do not hire people to do half a job. If you remove it then you should replace it, if it costs more then negotiate with me. We took pictures and videos of mistakes made along the way and only got excuses. After refusal to pay they responded with some repairs. Their 100 percent satisfaction guarantee before payment was bogus. Damaged our wood siding and aluminum trim in the roofing process and balked at fixing the problems. Pressured us to pay even though they had not yet fixed anything. They promised the roof vents would be the same color as the roof, but when they painted them black and we pointed it out they painted them brown and got over=spray all over the new shingles. It now looks terrible. After some repairs were made (replacing rotted rafter tails that we had expected to have done and had pointed out to the salesman in the beginning) we paid just to be done with them and get them off our property. But the nightmare was not over. Within a few days their collections department called threatening to turn us in to the credit bureaus We explained we had no power over the USPS. My wife was livid and in tears. They received the check the very next day (the morning of the 4th business day after they finished) and cashed it immediately (it showed on our statement). We feel we dealt honestly with them but were not treated well in return. A horrible experience that I would not desire anyone else to have.

Thank you for your review. Let me start by acknowledging the fact there was some misunderstanding verbally and this is why we put everything in writing and have all parties sign off on it so its not a "he said she said thing". Your roof was installed properly and we completed all work you contracted with us for. As for the rafter tails which is part of "trim" work and not the roof, they were not part of the job "as we agreed in the contract" which was signed by the homeowners and a company representative. The wood replacement that WAS INCLUDED is stated in the contract was for "roof decking" i.e. plywood. After you contacted us about it we did go out of our way in good faith and replaced the rafters FREE of charge which in the contract we would of have had the right to charge for that repair. We also had a GAF rep come out to your home and look over your roof again we paid that fee and gave that to you FREE of charge. Also for the wood siding we told you up front that the wood siding along the roof line was in bad shape and to replace the step flashing it would cause some damage, this is out of our control. We were hired to install a new roof and charged you for ONLY a new roof not rotting soffit repairs and rotting wood repairs other than the rotted decking on the roof. The good thing is your roof has been inspected by a GAF Master Elite Representative and has been approved as being installed to GAF standards and you have a lifetime warranty on your roof. Thank you for your business!

Description of Work: Custom installed new large rear gutters. They look great and work well. We were unhappy with prior work performed by another contractor on our back porch, so we asked Custom if they could fix the porch. Custom provided a detailed analysis and completed the work as agreed to. We now have a great looking back porch that is maintenance free.

Description of Work: They installed a new roof system. The crew arrived approximately 0700, unloaded their equipment and started to work. They worked from the time they arrived until it was too dark to see. They returned the next morning to finish. Upon completion, they cleaned all around the house. They went around the house several times with a magnet to pick up all the nails. So far i have only seen two nails in the yard. The job from start to finish was truly professional. I will definitely use they again for my next project.

Description of Work: They replaced the gutters on my house. I had an appt. scheduled on Friday, Oct. 3 at 5. No one showed up. When I e-mailed them they said there must have been a mixup and rescheduled. They said they would call the night before they came out to do the gutters. I came home and they were already done. When I asked I was told that someone had gotten the message and it must have been misdialed.

Thank you for your feedback as it helps us in areas to improve. You are correct unfortunately there was some miscommunication from all parties regarding the completion of this job. Unfortunately when an Angie's list member purchases a big deal of the day the contractor only has the ability to communicate with the customer through Angie's list email and we are not given or forwarded the homeowners phone number. As it took several emails back-and-forth for us to get your contact number we agree with you that it definitely hampered communication. We are sorry for the inconvenience and please trust that we are working to improve this situation between Angie's list, it's members, and the contractor to forward more information and improve communication.

Description of Work: Gutters and downspouts. Missed first appointment by 2 days. Initial installment went well but we requested to have one section revised. Installment crew appeared very disgruntled to have to amend initial work. Foreman very professional but installers were far from. Looking elsewhere for gutter covers this season.

Thank you for your review, it helps us constantly critique ourselves for ways to improve. The initial appointment unfortunately did not occur because we called to confirm the appointment the day before, similar to a doctor's office, and nobody ever responded back either by a return call, email, or text. We are glad you were pleased with our crew chief.

Response from Custom Home Improvement & Repairs LLC
We believe in being upfront with potential customers...your job was such a small repair we recommended that you consider a handyman type service/company, perhaps a Class B or Class C contractor. We say that because Class A Contractors are generally "restoration" companies and for us to send our crew and equipment out there isn't cost effective for either the homeowner or us. A small handyman working out of his/her home could do the small repair for less and we were trying to save you money. Please keep us in mind for other projects such as roofs, siding, trim, windows, or a full gutter job. Thank you
