Complaint against Nationwide Roofing & Renovations. ********************* is the person I have been dealing with. My name is ************ acting on behalf of All ************** in *************** at ******************************************. The contractor repaired one of the many roof slopes at the church in February during a warm spell this winter. He was paid as agreed to. **** reported that another section of roofing shingles need to be removed and replaced, a section that is difficult to get to and not visible from the ground. I agreed that he do the work and a cost was established at $4,850. taxes included. He asked for a deposit of half the cost "for materials". On April 10/24 I personally gave **** a cheque from the church for $2425. Since then, I have been in touch with **** almost weekly by phone and text asking when he would do the work. He had several answers like trouble with his van, unsuitable weather conditions, a fall. May 24 **** said "...if not by next week I will refund there(sic)money ".June 3, I emailed "this delay has gone on too long. I would like you to refund our deposit this week" . **** pleaded for "one more week " . No show. No response from him to now, June 18. While the roof is not yet leaking, we at the church have had our tall organ which is directly under the faulty roof covered to prevent dust from entering it since February. We want Nationwide to formally tell us he is walking away from this job and refund our money immediately. We want to be able to hire another company to do the work without risking complications from Nationwide. An alternate contractor will want to be assured that they do not have to worry about interference from Nationwide. How do we do this ?
