Scott Post Construction

The grain is old and there are cuts and holes in many places of this shingle. Shingle was not put straight on many parts of the house which looks terrible, lots of different size pieces of shingle were cut which looks absolutely horrible; shingle is cut too short in many areas, wood work is a disaster, shingle is not sticking after over 2 months; siding was broken by the roofers so they replaced it but Scott refused to get it painted so now it’s not the same color as the rest of the house and I’ll need to hire someone to paint the siding THEY broke! They also damaged our brand new outdoor shower ($800) and since they did not protect our AC unit outside, old shingle was thrown on it and broke the protective cover, debris fell in there and 2 weeks later our A/C was dead (fan motor - according the AC company, something must have fell on it and kept it from spinning normally and damaged the motor - a $500 repair). As for the roof, shingle is not sticking at all on large parts of the main roof and on the cottage. After 2 months it can actually be lifted up completely with two fingers on several areas! We contacted another roofing company to assess the damage; they said that too much power was used in the nail gun so the nails were shot three quarter of the way to all the way through the first shingle, which is why they are not sticking! Nothing is holding them down! 2 other companies we have contacted for estimates to repair this mess won't even try and "fix" it. For all of them it requires a redone entirely. As soon as Scott Post realized all the issues with the roof he called another contractor, Dereck, to take over and “deal” with the situation, to clean his mess. Dereck as helpful as he was also realized how bad a job was done and even though he tried to help and fix some things, at the end of the day, his opinion was also that the roof simply needed to be redone as there is no fixing it at this point. Permit was reopen twice so far. A true nightmare. On top of that he dared sending me a Notice to Owner, trying to put a lien against my property. Stay away from this company!

In July 2012, I had my house reinspected in order to get the credits from my insurance company for the clips. The inspector found that the clips in the garage were installed improperly and I could not get the credit. I called Scott many times and he finally called back. Scott missed one appointment we had scheduled. After more calls, Scott said he would come on a weekday (which I worked from home in order to make the appointment). Scott never showed up. After more calls, he told me he had gotten busy and didn't have my telephone number with him to let me know he wasn't coming. I never heard from Scott again. And he was going to charge me several hundred more dollars to fix the clips that were installed wrong and weren't checked when he was hired to do the job in the first place. After $3,000, I didn't think I should pay more! So I still have to find another contractor to come and do the job correctly. Then I have to pay the inspector again to get a report so I can get the credits that I have not been able to claim since Feb. After this experience, I could not recommend Scott Post Construction, Inc.

SCOTT POST IS A GOOD BUSINESSMAN. HE ACTUALLY DID MUCH OF THE WORK HIMSELF ALONG WITH OTHER EMPLOYEES. HE UNDERSTANDS BUSINESS AND GUARDS HIS REPUTATION BY GETTING THE JOB DONE . THE ROOF WAS BEING INSTALL BY ANOTHER CONTRACTOR AND HE COORDINATED WITH THEM, WORKING ON THE WEEKEND TO GET THE STRAPS INSTALLED. AFTER DEALING WITH CITIZENS INSURANCE I WOULD PROBABLY NOT INSTALL THE HURRICANE STRAPS, BUT I HAVE NO PROBLEM HAVING SCOTT POST DO WORK FOR ME.
