Seeking help from BBB regarding shameful sales practices and refusal to refund monies paid for services NOT rendered. This complaint names Jeremy W*****, at EZ Roofing of Augusta GA. I am ** yrs old and was taken advantage of. $721 was paid 2 ½ months ago and no roof work done. Roof damage due to Hurricane Helene, requested estimates for roof replacement. Appointment set with Jeremy on 3/6/25 @ 9:30am. He came on 2/26/25. I did not understand technical terminology and could not read poor quality paperwork. Jeremy pressured me to sign and give deposit of $721 (check #****) for roofing repair. He did not go over the paperwork or explain I had 3 days to cancel – he said he would send better copy but didn't. Was told someone would call in March to schedule the work date. For two months, I called to speak with Jeremy asking to set up appointment for roof repairs, and readable copy of paperwork. Finally, after no response, called again on 4/21/25 and asked for full refund due to lack of communication, and no attempt by EZ Roofing to schedule roof repair appointment. Jeremy said refund was $432.60 – deducting 20% of the full amount ($1,442). Told him this not acceptable would pursue legal options. Jeremy hung up on me. My roof has not been repaired and I would like my full deposit of $721 back. On 5/6/25 and 5/7/25, EZ office staff contacted me. Without my permission, they called relative in ******. They wanted to send him the $432.60 check. This relative is not the owner of the home. No service, or attempts to make appointments have been made. I would like my full refund of $721.Business Response

Timeline and Factual Summary:
Initial Contract Agreement (February 26, 2025):
On February 26, 2025, our technician met with *** ******** at her residence. Present at this meeting were *** ********, her daughter, and a third party. After reviewing the proposed scope of repair work, *** ******** signed a contract authorizing roof repairs. A carbon copy of this signed agreement was left in her possession at that time.
Follow-Up Request and Site Visit (March 3–6, 2025):
On March 3, 2025, at 3:42 PM, *** ********’s **********, *** ****, contacted our office requesting a roof replacement estimate and asked to be listed as the primary point of contact. The following day, March 4, 2025, *** ******** herself called our office at 9:37 AM requesting the same. We promptly scheduled a follow-up visit and returned to the property on March 6, 2025. At this visit, our technician again met with *** ********, her daughter, and a third party. During this meeting, *** ******** confirmed her decision to proceed with the originally contracted roof repair—not a replacement—and no changes were made to the existing agreement.
Right to Cancel and Scope of Work Disclosure:
As clearly stated in the written contract at the time of signing, *** ******** was provided with a 3-day right to cancel the contract. No notice of cancellation was received within that window. Additionally, the contract clearly stated that due to current workload, all repair work was scheduled approximately 2½ months from the date of agreement.
Request for Cancellation (April 21, 2025):
*** ******** contacted our office on April 21, 2025, to request cancellation of the contract. At the time, Jeremy from our office attempted to speak with her directly, witnessed by another staff member. *** ******** became irate, yelling and accusing Jeremy of misconduct, claiming the contract was invalid due to her age and inability to read it. Jeremy attempted to inform her that she was next in line for service and that we would prefer to complete the work rather than charge a cancellation fee. However, *** ******** was unresponsive to this offer and abruptly ended the call.
Follow-Up with *** **** and Refund Procedure:
After the call, Jeremy followed up with *** ****, who confirmed that *** ******** had elected to hire another contractor who could perform the work more quickly and at a lower cost. *** **** requested that the refund check be mailed to him directly. Due to legal and procedural requirements, and because *** ******** was the contract signatory and deposit provider, we reached out to her for confirmation. Our office texted *** ******** on May 5, 2025 (see attached screenshots) and also placed a call, which she did not take. Her daughter subsequently returned our call and was surprised by *** ****’s request. During this conversation, she further accused our company of taking advantage of her mother and demanded that we hold the refund check while they pursued “other avenues.”
Refund Issued and Contract Closure:
As per the terms of the signed agreement, which clearly outlines a 20% cancellation fee to cover administrative, scheduling, and labor preparation costs, we calculated the refund amount accordingly. The refund of $432.60 was mailed to *** ******** via certified mail, along with a formal cancellation notice and a copy of the contract (see both attached).
Conclusion:
We categorically deny any allegation that E-Z Roofing & Construction or any of its employees acted inappropriately or took advantage of *** ********. The contract was entered into with full disclosure, witnessed by multiple individuals, and all parties had ample opportunity to ask questions, review terms, or cancel within the legal timeframe. All communications, including follow-up requests and the refund process, were handled professionally and in good faith.
It is deeply unfortunate that this matter has escalated to a formal complaint. We completely understand that her home experienced minor damage after the hurricane, as we have been working diligently to repair the homes of many individuals in the same boat. We understand the inconvenience of a 2½ month timeframe for repairs, but it is unfortunately unavoidable, given the extent of the hurricane damages all over the CSRA. That being said, we maintain that our actions have been both lawful and ethical, and that *** ******** and her family were treated with the same respect and transparency we extend to all of our clients.Customer Answer

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: EZ is not responding to the complaint. Why was there no
communication with me and no attempts to make an appointment for the service? Why
would Jeremy not respond to my many phone calls asking for a clear and more
detailed breakdown of the job (roof repairs)? The problem is not that the work
was to take place in two months, but that Jeremy did not have the courtesy to
follow up or respond to my questions. Also, no where is it written on my copy about
2 ½ months. Reference to Jeremy’s second visit to inspect and give full roof
replacement is not part of this complaint. I am not satisfied with their response as they are not open
to resolving the complaint. It is unfortunate that many untruths have been
stated by EZ in order to justify unethical behavior. That being said, I have
received the letter and check for $432.60 in the mail. I hope others will view
this complaint against Jeremy and EZ. Maybe they will think twice about taking
advantage of the elderly in the future.
Sincerely,

preference. (Screenshots previously submitted.)05/06/2025,

5:32 PM – 5:34 PM – Multiple call attempts were

refund to *** ****.05/07/2025,
3:35 PM – Refund check (less the 20% cancellation fee as outlined in the
signed contract) and cancellation notice were sent to **. ******** via
certified mail.05/10/2025,
4:02 PM – Certified mail was confirmed delivered.We have addressed each claim made by **. ******** thoroughly and provided
documentation throughout this process. **. ******** was informed of the 3-day
cancellation policy at the time of contract signing and was verbally reminded
of the projected repair schedule due to weather-related workload. At no point did we deny her the right to cancel. However, per the signed
agreement and legal standards, cancellation after the grace period incurs a 20%
fee to cover administrative and labor-related costs incurred in the process of
preparing for her project. Furthermore, as previously expressed, all parties had ample time to ask questions, review terms and cancel within the legal timeframe. This
documented and consistent timeline of events provides clear and irrefutable
evidence that **. ******** was never ignored at any point. In fact, we
maintained frequent and transparent communication with her and multiple family
members across various platforms—including in-person meetings, mailed
documents, phone calls, voicemails, and text messages. **. ********'s claim that we contacted a relative in ****** without her
consent is demonstrably false; *** **** voluntarily provided his contact
details and requested that the refund be sent to him. We declined to do so
until we received her confirmation, which is fully documented via text and call
records. Despite
our efforts, we were met with shifting information and hostile accusations that
our technician “took advantage” of **. ********—allegations which are entirely
without merit and contradicted by the presence of multiple family members
during key appointments, as well as the consistent documentation of her
informed participation. We find it both deeply regrettable and unjust that our team — including
Jeremy, who has conducted himself professionally throughout — has been subject
to false and disparaging accusations. E-Z Roofing & Construction stands by
our record of ethical business conduct, transparent communication, and
commitment to honoring our contractual obligations. We respectfully request
that this complaint be considered in light of the factual and detailed timeline
presented, which demonstrates our professionalism and responsiveness. Attached to this and previous responses, you will find the supporting
documentation referenced above, including call logs, text messages, and a copy
of the signed contract.Business Response

Thank you for taking the time to assist in this matter and for your efforts to mediate the situation. I want to be clear and respectful in stating that I am not willing to change my position regarding the complaint submitted by **. ***** ********. I have been told that **. ******** does not have email nor communicates effectively via text; I am therefore assuming that the BBB complaint correspondence we’ve received is actually coming from her daughter, ***** ******. Regardless, we have made every effort to communicate clearly and consistently with **. ******** and her family from the beginning. Our team has been professional, courteous, and responsive throughout the entire process—even during interactions where members of her family raised their voices or spoke to our staff in a hostile manner. We take great pride in how we treat our clients and their families, and we have documentation to support that we acted with integrity at every step. It is clear that the BBB complaint process is being used as a means to pressure us into issuing a full refund. While we did offer to complete the work, and **. ******** was very close to the top of our production list at the time of her cancellation, they were unwilling to proceed. According to *** ****’s own admission, they found another contractor who could do the job faster and for less—something we completely understand. However, to then demand a full refund and support that demand with inaccurate claim about our conduct is simply unfair. I cannot, in good conscience, reward this behavior by issuing a full refund based on false accusations. I must stand behind what is right, even if it means this matter becomes public on our BBB profile. We will continue to maintain professionalism and transparency, and we are confident that the full context and supporting evidence speak for themselves. Again, I appreciate your time and your role in this process. Unfortunately, it appears that **. ****** will only be satisfied with an admission of wrongdoing in the form of a full refund—something we cannot provide in good faith. However, with all that being said, should she wish for us to complete the contracted work, we will absolutely be willing to do that.
Warm regards,Katie W***

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because: Interesting that the original issues stated in the complaint
are still not being addressed. Why was there no communication with me and no
attempts to make an appointment for the service in a timely manner? Why would
Jeremy not respond to my many phone calls asking for a clear and more detailed
breakdown of the job (roof repairs)? It
seems personal attacks on a ** year old woman are more important than addressing
the customer’s issues in a respectful manner. It is obvious that EZ’s employee responses
make no attempt to resolve this complaint. I am not satisfied with the business (EZ) response. I am
considering other options for this complaint. While this complaint is not
resolved, I thank BBB for make an effort to mediate.
Sincerely,
***** ********Business Response

We are submitting this response to address and clarify the ongoing complaint made by the customer, which has been rebutted in full in our previous communications. For the sake of transparency and accuracy, we are once again providing a detailed summary of the facts, timeline, and evidence previously submitted.
Allegation of Exploitation: The customer's initial claim that our company took advantage of her has already been addressed in both our first and second responses. As previously documented, multiple appointments and phone conversations took place involving the customer and her family members - All parties had ample opportunity to ask questions or raise concerns. We reiterate that the contract provided clearly outlines a three-day legal right to cancel, which was not exercised during the applicable period.
Timing of Work Completion: The claim that we failed to complete work within 2½ months is factually inaccurate. The contract was signed on February 26, 2024 and reaffirmed during a second appointment on March 6, 2024. The job was cancelled on April 21, 2024, which is less than two months from contract date. As stated in the signed agreement (previously submitted), our estimated project timeframe is approximately 2½ months. We remain willing to review the customer’s copy of the contract if needed.
Contradictory Complaints Regarding Timeline: In her second complaint, the customer indicated that the 2½-month timeframe was not a concern. This directly contradicts her initial complaint and undermines the credibility of her claims.
Understanding of Terminology and Contract Details: The customer also claimed confusion about technical terminology and lack of breakdown regarding the work. This too has been previously addressed. The contract, provided in our first response, specifies the nature of the work: replacement of 2 pipe boots and up to 2 bundles of shingles. It also clearly outlines the customer’s legal rights for cancelation.
Communication Attempts Regarding Repair Scheduling: The customer stated that she repeatedly called to schedule the repair. However, both she and her family were advised multiple times of our 2½-month timeframe. We spoke to them many times, in person and via phone - This is documented through phone records and detailed notes submitted previously.
Refund Miscommunication Claim: The customer claimed that we attempted to send her refund to a relative in ****** without permission - The customer's ********** called REQUESTING the refund and was designated by the family as a point of contact. We further confirmed refund preferences directly with the customer (see previously submitted text messages).
Allegation of No Response: The assertion that we have not responded to her concerns is simply not factual. A thorough timeline of communication was provided, including numerous phone calls, appointments, and written correspondences. Our responses have been prompt, professional, and well-documented. Furthermore, we communicated the expected timeframe for repair work, with the customer and her family members many times - They were seemingly okay with it until the customer found someone to do the work for less, at which point she called in to cancel.
Allegation That We Were Unwilling to Resolve: We attempted to resolve this matter at multiple points. When the customer requested to cancel the job, we explained that she was near the top of the production list and offered to proceed with the work. She declined.
Repeated Allegations of Disregard and Unprofessionalism: Each of the customer's submissions has included accusations that our team acted unethically and personally targeted her. These are entirely unsubstantiated and refuted by factual timelines, phone logs, contract terms, and our documented interactions. At every step, we have conducted ourselves with integrity and professionalism, even in instances when our staff were subjected to hostile behavior.
Efforts Toward Resolution: We respect the BBB’s mission to facilitate fair resolutions. However, it is apparent that the customer will only be satisfied with a full refund, regardless of the facts presented. As previously stated, the contract was lawfully executed, and cancellation occurred well after the legal grace period. We cannot, in good conscience, issue a full refund based on demonstrably false claims.
Conclusion: We are committed to doing what is right. While we deeply regret that the customer feels dissatisfied, we cannot justify a full refund under these circumstances. The BBB process is not intended to be used as leverage in situations where a customer seeks to circumvent agreed-upon terms.That said, our standing offer remains: If the customer still wishes to allow us to complete the contracted work, we are ready and willing to do so - This remains the most equitable and good-faith resolution available.
We thank the BBB for its ongoing efforts to mediate and provide clarity in this matter, and we respectfully submit this as our final position based on evidence and documentation.Sincerely,
Katie
