Initial Complaint

- Complaint Type:
- Service or Repair Issues
- Status:
- Resolved
I am filing this complaint after exhausting all efforts to resolve this issue with the owner of Ace Property Services. The issue is that the company owner, *****************************, did an estimate of the number of roofing tiles that were needed to re-roof my first story roof on June 2, 2022 and signed a contract for the work on June 7, 2022. After his company completed this portion of my roof, there are 256 Roofing tiles leftover that the company did not use. The company installed approximately 850 tiles. I explained to *************** that the original estimate of how many tiles would be needed was in error and that I would like a credit for the leftover tiles. He stated that he always estimate more tiles than are needed and I told him that I understand and agree with that practice, however I told him that the number of unused tiles was excessive and unreasonable. He adamantly disagreed and said that it was my problem! In addition to this unprofessional response, I also disagree with ***************' business practice of holding the customer liable for his company's error in "grossly " overestimating the amount of materials required for a job. Normal industry practices dictate a reserve of 10% extra materials for completion of a job. Ace Property Services over estimated the reserve and now holds me financially responsible for their miscalculation. The required independent inspector came by prior to the ************* final inspection, this inspector also confirmed that it was unreasonable to have this many (256) tiles leftover after a roof was completed. He also stated that was about one third of the tiles needed to complete the entire roof. He also noted that he had never seen that many tiles leftover after a roof was completed. After careful research with sellers of this exact roofing tile the current price is $4.00 per tile.Please alert future customers of the poor business and customer service practices of this company.Business response
