  Our Street had hail damage the neighbors had Modern Roofing checking their roof so the Guy said he would check our roof he came over to look at our roof he had my husband sign a paper my husband told him he did not want to make a commitment to any roofing company yet the guy (Michael G*****) said it was not a commitment he just needed to sign it for him to look at the roof apparently it was some type of contract saying we would use them. We got some other quotes decided to go with a different company we got a letter in the mail today saying we owed them a thousand dollars for default. All the guy did was look at the roof We are not paying them a dime they can take us to court. That is misrepresentation.

  In no way do we request payment from any of our customers after simply preforming a roof inspection. All our roof inspections are completely free. After a roof inspection is complete and the customers does decide to proceed to move forward with Modern Roofing and start an insurance claim we ask all our customers to provide their insurance policy number and sign a customer intake form. We have a fully filled out and signed form from the complainants husband. The customer is willingly providing their information so Modern Roofing can begin the insurance process, to work for the customer, to get their home approved through their insurance company. The form signed by her husband clearly states, If property owner's insurance claim is approved, but property owner does not utilize Modern Roofing to perform roofing services, then property owner will pay either one thousand dollars ($1,000), or ten percent (10%) of the insurance proceeds, whichever is greater, to Modern Roofing. Failure to comply will result in the property owner being responsible for Modern Roofing's Legal Costs and Fees. If the insurance company does not approve the scope, you are not obligated to pay for any repairs or replacements and owe no fee for our services. 

  This fee only comes into affect if Modern Roofing takes all necessary steps to provide our professional services to fully get the customers home approved and then the customer decides to use another roofing company. Which we did and got their home fully approved for them.

  The homeowner requested us to provide professional services to file an insurance claim on their behalf, submit estimates for repair on their behalf, appeal insurance coverage decisions on their behalf, and verify payments made by the insurance company on their behalf. We are simply asking to be paid for the work performed to get their home fully approved for the customer. No misrepresentation!

  It is my understanding that the complainant and our general manager have already been communicating and they have come to an agreement about the matter.

  Estimate of work was not provided. 1. Ice & water barriers weren’t installed on the front and rear porch 1 pitch roofs and valleys. Update- front and rear porch ice and water barrier put on July 20, 2023. Shingles are the architecture shingles mismatched in color on the rear porch. Rear porch roof has uneven boards and dips in the middle top. 2. California cut was done on valley shingles. Need proof valleys are up to code. 3. New flashing was installed in some areas July 20, 2023. Other areas still need new flashing. 4. New flashing has nail holes caulked and are open to the elements that will cause mushrooming (shrinking, cracking) that will leak. There are gaps in the flashing where water can get in. 5. New boots with a lifetime warranty were not installed with the new roof, the cheap ones that got nailed to the roof and caulked will leak due to the caulking mushrooming (shrinking, cracking). 6. Cut shingle on the front under left dormer which will leak. 7. Lifted shingle on the front under left dormer due to the cut shingle. 8. Left dormer fascia was dented, and bottoms of dormers are exposed and open where stucco was knocked off. 9. Right 2nd story gutter corner was knocked uneven with the rest of the gutter. 10. Modern was to remove and reset gutter guards/screens and downspouts. This was not done, causing damage to the gutter guards when installing the new shingles causing them to not function properly. Modern came out to fix 9/22.2023. The shingles were lifted trying to determine how to fix it. It was determined the job was too big for that day and they would return 9/25. No one showed or called. I reached out to the Production Manager **** ******* ******** 9/26 who stated 9/27 they will not be able to replace the gutter guards. Another company was hired to fix the gutter guards. We would like a refund of the cost and repairs of outstanding issues completed correctly and professionally. Photos won't load. Will send another way on request.

  We have gone directly off the insurance estimate and scope of work to determine what our installation would consist of as discussed during the contract appointment. The only deviation that was made on the contract as far as the scope of repairs is related was the type of shingle. The only deviation made outside of the contract was for the removal and reset of the gutter guards which we have issued a refund for $814.38 on 11/13/23 since we did not complete that item on the scope of work. 2. California cut is the suggested valley method for the GAF HDZ shingles and can be found on GAF website and install information, we have attached it as well. We install every roof based off of the GAF manufacturer guidelines which are up to code with all local jurisdictions. 5. Those are the types of pipes that the insurance company paid to replace with as those are what you already had on the roof, nothing outside of using the standard pipe boot was listed on the contract or the insurance scope. That is also how they are installed, and we are unable to control how the material wears over time. As far as the other items of concern go after multiple trips back out there none of those were ever brought to anyone’s attention and it was determined that everything was in good order and installed correctly. If there are still concerns we would be more than willing to send out a 3rd party inspector and let them look at the roof.

   Yes, I would like to have a third party not affiliated with Modern Roofing LLC to inspect the roof. I would like a full roof inspection and the list of items inspected. The GAF technical installation bulletins have been attached which were obtained from GAF Technical Support. The list of items need to be done is still intact. Need proof valleys are up to code. 3. New flashing was installed in some areas July 20, 2023. Other areas still need new flashing. 4. New flashing has nail holes caulked and are open to the elements that will cause mushrooming (shrinking, cracking) that will leak. There are gaps in the flashing where water can get in. 5. New boots with a lifetime warranty were not installed with the new roof, the cheap ones that got nailed to the roof and caulked will leak due to the caulking mushrooming (shrinking, cracking). 6. Cut shingle on the front under left dormer which will leak. 7. Lifted shingle on the front under left dormer due to the cut shingle. 8. Left dormer fascia was dented, and bottoms of dormers are exposed and open where stucco was knocked off. 9. Right 2nd story gutter corner was knocked uneven with the rest of the gutter. 10. Modern was to remove and reset gutter guards/screens and downspouts. This was not done, causing damage to the gutter guards when installing the new shingles causing them to not function properly. A check was received from Modern, will not be cashed at this time. We expect the list of items to be taken care of after a full roof inspection by a third party including a refund of the gutters/gutter guards/downspout removal and reinstall dollars and a refund of the cost of hiring another company to fix the gutter guards of $1796.00 not including flashing if needed; that will be an extra cost and not known at this time. Per estimate, flashing will be $2.50/ft. for a total of 1155 sq ft.

  We will be getting back in contact, ***** the GAF manufactures representative will be able to come out and complete the inspection. We will be back in contact shortly once that inspection is scheduled. As far are the gutter guards are concerned since they were not functioning properly with the new roofing system that would be something that would fall back on to them. If you provide your receipts and reasoning to the insurance company the should be able to reimburse you for those items.

  Please note, this issue is with Modern Roofing LLC in Columbia, SC. It has been verified there is a ***** in the upstate area who is a GAF sales representative with a ********* ******* *****; per GAF they are trained on roof installation; it would be nice if they have actually installed a roof. I expect notification as to date and time when the inspection will take place so I can be present. I expect a full roof inspection with a full report provided in writing. The list of items provided is a list provided when someone with **** came and looked at the roof. I had my list of original issues; they pointed out others. In this statement: "As far are the gutter guards are concerned since they were not functioning properly with the new roofing system that would be something that would fall back on to them. If you provide your receipts and reasoning to the insurance company the should be able to reimburse you for those items."  Is Modern Roofing stating the insurance company should provide a reimbursement?  I have pictures where the gutter guards were bent during roof installation. I believe insurance shouldn't reimburse us for Modern's incompetence. I do believe Modern Roofing should pay for the other company we've hired to fix the gutter guards; this wouldn't have had to be done if the work was done as stated in structural damage claim which I didn't receive a copy of until after the work was done not before so it could be reviewed. I'm still waiting for documentation that things in question were done, they have not been addressed at all. This has been ongoing since May 5, 2023, I would like for the inspection to take place as soon as possible. I have not received a date and time yet. Once the inspection is done we can go from there.

  *****, the GAF rep looked at the property along with our production manager, **** *** **** *******. ***** determined that there was no issues related to the installation of the roof **** ******* was in agreements with *****. ***** stated that we will give the homeowner the silver pledge warranty to back our work, which is one of the highest tier warranties that GAF offers. The warranty had been registered and it had been emailed to **** *******.

  There was one other concern that I forgot to mention on the previous email. The concern regarding the flashing on the back porch. ***** determined that there was nothing wrong with the quality of the installation and the functionality of the flashings although the homeowner was still upset about the cosmetics, and the way that it looked, we have agreed to fix the flashing the way the homeowner prefers even though there is absolutely nothing wrong with the functionality of the flashing for no additional cost .

  Modern Roofing is missing the point that are damages done by their crew when doing installation that need to be addressed.
  

  The roof was inspected and a warranty provided which satisfies questions on the shingle/valley/drip edge installation. The project manager provided a picture of the valleys and drip edge showing they are up to code. The dip in rear porch roof was discussed and though aesthetically unpleasing should be ok with the ice and water barrier with water sitting in the dip as shingles are not waterproof. The lifetime boots should have been installed and will be a cost to us later on. These items are resolved.

  What isn’t resolved, (most of these are not in the roof inspectors realm of his duties) are the remaining issues that need addressing.
  1. Modern agreed to fix the flashing and fix the cut lifted shingle Tuesday December 12th when I reached out for a status after the Friday December 8th, 23 inspection. A date is needed, one wasn’t provided though was told it should be in the next week, a work order had been put in. 
  2. Left dormer fascia dented where something was dropped on it and the bottoms of the dormers are exposed and open to the elements where stucco was knocked off when the shingles were installed. These will cause water damage to our home. 
  3. Gutter guards and gutter - Modern received money for the R&R charged to the insurance company but wasn’t done. Due to the removal and reset not being done, the crews bent the guards causing them to not function properly. They have been out several time to try and rectify with no results. Back 2nd story gutter corner was knocked uneven with the rest of the gutter causing drainage issues. We have hired another company to fix the issues which is an out of pocket cost we should not have to pay for. Modern should pay for the total repairs cost of $1796.00 not including the cost of flashing if needed which is an additional cost. Insurance paid Modern to do a job that wasn’t done and should not have to reimburse us. 
  Modern refunded the R&R gutters/guards/screens and downspouts money to us which needs to go back to the insurance company.

  After reviewing this response, we are going to choose to rescind our offer to come back out and preform a replacement to the flashings. These flashings are fully functional and there is absolutely nothing wrong to them according to the GAF rep *****. The request to replace the flashings was solely based on personal cosmetic preference which was never discussed or agreed upon in the contract, and was not based on any issues related to any code or city ordinances, the flashing are also fully up to GAF's installation requirements and guidelines. As far as the "cut shingle" is concerned our foreman ****, the GAF rep *****, addressed that area and were having difficulty trying to understand what the homeowner was saying was wrong as the spot in question did not seem to have anything wrong with it. There was no "cut shingle" seen during the inspection. The dormers were looked at and it was determined that there was nothing wrong with them related to the construction. The dented fascia was damaged from the construction, and will will agree to reimburse for the cost of the repair but will not be sending out another representative from our company (contact us via email or our office phone number with documentation and the cost of the repair will be covered.) In regards to the money that was spent replacing gutter guards again we will not be paying for those replacements because there was nothing that we did that damaged them. If they did not function properly after the roof was installed it is due to the fact that they were not compatible with that roofing system. We installed a completely different shingle. Also the house only has 5" gutters and for how steep the roof is it is recommended to use a 6" option to ensure no run off occurs. lastly It would be your responsibility to send those funds back to the insurance company. 

  In conclusion it was determined that the installation of the roofing system was fully up to the GAF guidelines and specifications. Again GAF has certified this roof and we have issued the Silver Pledge warranty, and there are no further issues. We will no longer to continue to communicate with this customer outside of reimbursing for the dented fascia, and we will also not be sending out anymore representatives. Any further communication can be held with our legal counsel.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ******** and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. 
  We have come full circle with Modern rescinding their offer. Not doing work they said they would do promoted the complaint. The work agreed to be done by their foreman **** and the GAF representative ***** was not to replace the flashing but to cut the flashing off the windowsills, caulk where it was cut and caulk gaps. Modern’s statement: about the flashing cosmetic preference never being discussed is correct as nothing was discussed with the homeowners on the scope of work. It is a cosmetic issue, the front and back of the house have two different installs. **** stated he hadn't seen flashing done the way it is on the back, not saying it's wrong, though it doesn't look good. We have no understanding as to why Modern is refusing to fix the issue. Pictures attached.    
  Modern’s statement about the cut shingle - Per ***** and **** when here did see the issue. We discussed if the shingle is completely ripped it could be replaced. If not, the cut area could be caulked to seal it and caulk to lay the shingles down, we all agreed on this approach. Picture attached.    Modern’s statement on dormer construction isn’t understood by the homeowners. Pictures attached before roof installation. Research into companies with estimates requested as soon as possible. We will contact Modern via email providing the estimate with the company we choose to fix the dent and the stucco.   Modern’s statement on 5" gutters is incorrect, gutters are 6".

  On 5/11/23, a Modern Roofing representative was at our neighbors home looking at their roof. A few weeks earlier, we had noticed water stains on our bedroom ceiling, so we asked the representative to take a look at our roof. He flew drones overhead and informed us that we needed a full roof replacement. He then presented us with a form (attached) and requested a signature that would allow him to submit to our insurance company. At no time did he explain to us that we were obligated to use his company for roof replacement. The following day, 5/12/23, our insurance adjuster visited our home. During our conversation, I expressed uneasiness about using a roofing company I had never heard of. He looked at the MR form and said, in the state of SC, you have 72 hours to cancel. The same day at 12:56 pm, I called MR and spoke to Dariana P***** who said she was the owner of the company. I stated to her that the front roof of our home had been replaced in October of 2019 and we were very happy with the roofing company that performed the work. At the time we didn’t know if a full or partial roof would be approved. After a lengthy conversation and much frustration, I said to her, I want to cancel the paper we signed. Do I need to come by the office and sign anything. She responded very kindly, no, we’ll part as friends. During the following weeks, we started getting numerous phone calls asking for us to send them our claim information. We responded that no decision had been made on our roof replacement and we didn’t know who we were going to choose to do the work. Finally on 7/14/23, Ms P***** called and stated that we signed a contract to use MR and if we chose not to use them, they would take legal action. We feel like we are being intimidated to use them by their tactics. We don’t feel comfortable with the interaction we have had with this company and are asking that they leave us alone.

  Company was soliciting in my neighborhood, offering free roof inspections. They were waiting at my door when I returned from walking my dog. I allowed them to do the inspection. Upon completion, they told me that I had major hail damage to my roof and that I would most likely qualify for a "free" roof, that is, completely covered by my insurance. They asked me for my insurance provider and told me that they know the adjuster and work with him regularly. They also said that they are certified by my insurance company. They asked for my permission to contact my insurance on my behalf to see if I qualified for a "free" roof replacement. I asked them to clarify that under no circumstances would I be responsible for any out-of-pocket charges, and they said yes. They said that they could work with my insurance to get me the amount I needed to cover the whole replacement, and if my insurance declined, we would "shake hands and part ways as friends." They wrote down my name and contact information on a document, and clarified that they did not need my insurance policy number because they work with my insurance company. They then asked me to sign and left. I did not read the document until afterwards. It clearly states that I am responsible for paying my deductible out of pocket, and furthermore that if I do not employ their services I must pay them $1000 under threat of lawsuit. The company never provided an estimate of the cost of their work. My insurance has since informed me that they have no connection with this company, they do not endorse their work, and they believe that I am a victim of shady business practices.

  Our sales rep were talking with Mr. ******' neighbor the first time we encountered him.  Mr. ****** was chasing his dog while were speaking to his neighbor about damage we found in the neighborhood.  One of our sales reps in training and the general manager then approached Mr. ****** and told him of our findings on roofs in his neighborhood.  Connor, the GM, asked Mr. ****** if we could to an inspection, and ended up finding hail damage.  We expalined the insurance process and our company rebate program.  Mr. ****** signed our contingency form and we left a copy with him.  We then contacted ***** **** to file a claim on the homeowners behalf.  Connor worked with Charles at ***** **** to schedule an insurance inspection, all the while informing Mr. ****** throughout the process.  The inspection was delayed once, which Connor informed Mr. ****** of, but Connor met with Charles from ***** **** on 2/27/28 with Mr. ****** in attendance.  Connor has been in constant communication with Mr. ****** throughout this whole process.  Charles informed us that Mr. ****** roof was approved this week.  Mr. ****** has not reached out to Modern Roofing to alleviate any miscommunications. Connor personally has driven out to the house to speak with Mr. ****** who was home but neglected to open the door.  Modern Roofing has worked in the neighboring subdivision and has an impeccable ****** and ******** review record.  We feel we explained the whole process and were able to get a full roof approval.  We would be open to any communication at this time to alleviate any problems.

  I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined that this does not resolve my complaint. 
  
  After reviewing the document they left with me and discussing with my insurance, I feel that I was lied to by the company about several details that I mentioned in my original complaint.

  1. Connor insinuated that the roof replacement/repair would be at no cost to me, and he doubled down on this when I attempted to clarify. While my insurance may cover the cost of the roof, they will only do so after I pay my deductible.

  2. Connor insinuated that he/the company have some sort of professional relationship with my insurance company. He used the term "***** **** certified." He mentioned the adjuster by first name alone, and said that he works with him often. My insurance denied having any connections with this company.

  3. The document was filled out for me after the previous two items were discussed verbally. I did not see the document myself until it was handed to me for me to sign. I incorrectly assumed that any concerns I may have had were addressed during our conversation. In addition to our conversation contradicting the text in the document regarding my responsibility for my deductible, they did not in any way draw attention to the clause where I would owe them $1000 under threat of lawsuit if I did not allow them to do work on my house, without even knowing the cost or scope of the work at the time.

  Because I feel that I have been deceived by the company, I do not believe any further communication with the company to be useful. I believe that they acted unethically in their communication with me, hence my filing of this complaint. Since I did not receive any services from them I have no intent of leaving a public negative review of their work, as I truly hope that it merits the overwhelmingly positive reviews the company has received.

  I do not appreciate the attempts to call me or visit me at my house after I filed my original complaint, and would ask that there be no additional attempts made. As stated in my original complaint, my desired outcome is to have no further contact with the company.

  A representative from Modern Roofing, driving a Mercedes no less, came to my door and rang my doorbell and also pounded on the door. I have a very obvious NO SOLICITATION sign on my door. My wife is very ill and does not need to be disturbed in this manner. The gentleman declared that he was "in the neighborhood" and offered a "free service". I yelled at him to leave, which he did. I informed the area police that there were solicitors canvasing the area, and I wasn't sure he really worked for Modern Roofing. I called Modern Roofing, and the lady who answered confirmed that the gentleman DID work for them, and that since he was offering a "free service" he didn't have to conform to the "No Solicitation" sign. This is a horrible, intrusive way to do business, and Modern needs to cease and desist.

  The representative from Modern Roofing does not seem to understand just what they did. They concocted a plan to thwart the wishes of homeowners with posted "NO SOLICITATION" signs by claiming to offer a "free service". This was stated to me by the gentleman who rang my bell and pounded on my door, and also by the lady I spoke with shortly thereafter at Modern. 

   

  A proper response would be that they will A. Be exceedingly careful NOT to solicit at any property displaying a "NO SOLICITATION" Sign and B. They will cease and desist with the utterly deceptive practice of claiming to offer a "free service".

   

  Clearly, they are not interested in stopping this unfortunate activity. No doubt the "free service" subterfuge gets them in the doors of unsuspecting (and most likely elderly) folks. I want their pledge to stop doing this.

  Date of transaction is 09/21/22 Paid by customer $3, 472.84 and $5000 (deductible ). My house is on sale and I decided to replace the roof. Last Thursday, they came to replace the roof. They - Modern Roofing, parked Grey truck on my lawn. I had leave my work to come home to make sure everything is okay as they did not responded promptly. Even though per their contract they are not responsible for lawn and landscaping damage during the roof replacement, parking at my lawn and not trying minimally protecting shrubbery (see the pics) was extremely careless. I believe that my shutters were broken when crew were throwing old shingles from the roof. The house might has lost some curb appeal. Instead off trying peacefully resolve the issue and come to agreement (very reasonable) the person who calls himself as a owner, started threatening to file defamation lawsuit due to bad review! He said he is going yo put lien on my house. He also demanded paying in full despite the insurance company has not send me a final check!!! He told me that I never should contact him or his staff!

  Customer response

  10/07/2022

  The roof was finished but they never showed me the inspection documentation. Honestly, at this point the trust is broken and the owner refused to communicate with him or his office staff. He does not respond my text message either.  My house is on sale and the Modern Roofer crew slid loads of huge loads of shingles debris onto my garden smashing roses and other shrubbery that were a focal point of my backyard landscape and curb appeal.  See the pics-were no reasonable measures attempted to preserve my assets.  Moreover, they parked their truck on my front yard. I have a video that show grey truck on my front yard!  I had to leave my job to make sure their crew would park their truck somewhere else. I missed a day from work to make sure no more damages would be made.  The front yard has multiply lawn discoloration spots (perhaps caused by some acidic chemical) that might negatively impact value of my house! I cannot even update my house on- line profile with the new roof because of these damages.
  I belief that substantial shutters damage was caused by debris coming from the roof. The potential buyers my request to reduce the price again due to damages.  The front porch rail was bent. I belief it was bent because they attached a huge black plastic bag to the rail-I have a picture.
  I need to replant my grass and flower bed, replant some shrubbery, fix the rail and shutters. My estimated expenses would be from $1, 000-$1,200.

  We have submitted the final invoice to the customer. We have also forwarded her pictures showing we did not damage the property. We are happy to provide pictures from before and after the installation showing her shutter, and bushes were already damaged. She initially did not want to pay her deductible nor do the roof replacement and commit insurance fraud. Her adjuster told her she needed to have the roof done. We have given her her warranty information along with a final invoice.

  After reviewing the complaint issues, we decided to reduce the invoice amount to include a discount in the final payment.  We believe that should alleviate any discomfort felt by Ms. *****.  We explained in the beginning that there could be slight damage to the landscaping on the property.  Ms. ***** signed that she understood the risks to her property.  We feel we made it very clear through our contract process and installation checklist that a roof replacement is a construction project and there are always risks involved in that.  In the before picture of the property, 4 shutters were already loose and hanging off.  We have sent over after pictures and our production manager has been over to the property many times and has spoken with Ms. *****.  We believed having our attorney involved to accept payment would alleviate any further discomfort felt by Ms. *****.  We would like this matter to be resolved and have forwarded Ms. *****'s information to our ***** representative.  He will be reaching out for the warranty transfer.
