I had lots of problems but the owner gradually worked to get them cleared out. First the good: this company was the low bidder. His communication was good; he was always respectful when I talked to him. The bad is that their crew on the old roof tear off yanked out a pressurized plumbing pipe which flooded six apartments. I offered and let him make many of the repairs from the floods and he did and some of the work was done competently and some not; overall, it took too long so I had to get others to do the damage repair but that really isn't typically a roofing company's business. The roof was not done right the first time. Part of the insulation was not installed properly under the flat roof and, though it was obvious, they didn't tell me and I had to get up on the roof and find it for myself when I saw water pooling in those places. After I did call them out on not doing the roof right, they did come back and repair it properly. Also, they didn't seal the parapets properly after they cracked them putting on the roof material so rain may have damaged the structure from that. They had the new roof slope and empty all one direction to the back of the building (which was probably cheaper and easier roof to do) instead of the previous roof which was draining on all 4 sides so all the water going to the back has caused a second flooding problem which has already damaged one of my apartments. However they say that they will fix that and I have reason to believe they will fix it because I demanded and they eventually paid for damages from the flood. More updates later.
