  Signed a proposal for replacing the roof on our home on 3 July 2021. Provided a personal check for $970 (deposited 7 July 2021 according to my bank) 'upfront'. After several months with no communication, we reached out via email in September to ask for a ball-park start date at which time we were told within 2-weeks (weather permitting). 2 full months later (including several weeks of good weather), we reached out again via email to request the project be cancelled and our money refunded. The reply received indicated that the company was doing it's best to finish all the projects on their schedule but if we wanted to cancel, they would refund the money. Since replying that I did indeed wish for our money to be refunded, we have received no further correspondence from the company and several calls to several different phone numbers listed have gone unanswered (and the voicemail boxes are full). I have every email sent and received (including the email in which their representative stated they would refund the money), the original signed proposal, and my bank records showing they cashed the check within days of receipt all available on request. Until they are needed, I won't be uploading them here.

  Better Business Bureau:
  
  The delay cost me more than $1000 (in increased labor and materials costs, due to the COVID pandemic) than what I was originally quoted by Bigfoot. I appreciated the refund (though it took me threatening legal action to even get that) as well as the $200. I'm also genuinely glad they claim to have resolved their issues; however, my complaint was not directed at one person but rather the entire company. Phone calls went unanswered, voicemail went unreturned. Emails were unanswered. I find it hard to believe this was all due to one individual. Due to the increased out-of-pocket costs I incurred as well as the months of stress trying to even get someone to acknowledge me at Bigfoot, I will be keeping my complaint.
  
  [To assist us in bringing this matter to a close, we would like to know your view on the matter.]

  Service or Repair Issues

  More info

  Big Foot Construction replaced a roof at the church . There have been multiple leaks ever since he finished. Sometimes he comes and tries to repair the leaks. Sometimes he ignores my calls altogether. There are new leaks happening on a regular basis. Today there is another new leak. We paid him $146,000.00 to replace this roof. He is not repairing the roof and it is frustrating to have paid for a new roof and to constantly have leaks. Some spots continue to lead after he repairs them and as I said new leaks happen often.
