      On 09/22/2021 we (myself and my wife) got into an agreement with Clinger Roofing to install a pro-panel roof. We were upgrading from a shingle roof to a pro-panel roof. We made the down payment of $5,150, It took the roofing company over 2 weeks to complete the job to a 1,587 sq.ft home (town home). While they work placing the roofing, we noticed they did not place the entire synthetic under lament we paid for on the entire roof. When we questioned it, they told us the East side of the home was still pretty good and didn't need replacement. We paid for that. Upon completion we received the 10 year warranty. In February, 2021 we realized we had some leaks in our garage, contacted the company and they send someone over and they fix the issues with caulking. Here we are and in August, same issue. They come and fix with caulking. We didn't pay to be calling every few months for caulking. We want this roof re-done or a full refund of $10,294.93 to pay another roofer to do a better job. We are very uncertain that the rest of the home was reliably roofed and fear of other leaks throughout the home and to include mold. When we had shingles, this issue we never had. When we call the owner, ****** *******, of these issues, he does not communicate with us and just sends one of his workers to look at the issue and place caulking, This is unacceptable. We did not pay for caulking -- we paid for a pro-panel roof along with a warranty they are not honoring !!!!

      RE: Response to Complaint:
             ****** *******
             Complaint ID: ********

      From: Clinger Pro Roofing

      This is a response to a complaint
      filed by ****** ******* regarding a leak issue with a roof installed by Clinger
      Pro Roofing at *** ******** *** ** *** ****** ** ****** 

      First, each time a roof is
      installed by our company, we do our very best to install it perfectly. After
      our crew is done with a project, we send our inspectors out to double check
      everything to try and avoid any potential future issues. Unfortunately, we do
      not live in a perfect world and occasionally have an unforeseen leak issue. We
      acknowledge this, so we provide all our roof replacement customers with a
      generous labor warranty. In this case, *** ******* had a metal roof installed
      on 10/13/2021 and we provided him with our standard 10-year labor warranty
      mailed out with our warranty cover letter after payment was made in full on
      10/28/2021. Our warranty procedure is that if a customer has a leak issue, they
      call the office to inform us, (as stated in the warranty paperwork) and
      a warranty work order goes out immediately to one of our repair technicians. He
      then is instructed to call and schedule an appointment with the customer to
      have the issue addressed within 72 hours. Once addressed he is to turn in the
      warranty form to the office so it can be recorded. While we ALWAYS honor our
      warranties, the owner of the company does not go out on warranty calls unless
      the repair technicians have an ongoing issue with finding the problem.

      In the ********* case, we
      have had a few calls for leak/gutter issues and *** ********* complaint about
      the underlayment.  (We did not install
      the gutters but took care of his gutter issues as well)
      Regarding the complaint of a
      warranty call made in February 2022, we have no record of that warranty call in
      our office. Recently *** ******* has been known to call the cell phones of the
      owner, the estimator, and the VP as well as the office so we aren’t sure if he
      called the inspector directly in February as he is no longer with our company
      but have checked with the estimator, owner and office and they have no record
      of the February call either. The three warranty calls recorded for the leak in
      the garage are as follows…

      1.)12/23/2021 – received call and work order was sent out. Repair tech returned call on 12/24/2021 and schedule appointment for 12/27/2022. (See attached work order)


      2.)8/23/2022 – received call and work order was sent out. Office manager returned call on 8/23/2022 and scheduled for foreman (who installed roof initially) to go out on 8/23/2022 (see attached work order)

          8/29/2022 –
      received another belligerent voicemail from *** ******* demanding that the
      owner call to schedule an appointment with him as he was not satisfied with the
      repair.

           8/30/2022 –
      ****** ******* (Owner) called and informed *** ******* that since a repair was
      made on 8/23 (and had not yet been tested by the rain) and his schedule was
      booked solid through September, the soonest he could schedule was 10/4/2022.
      The appointment was set.


      3.)9/13/2022 – received call with voicemail at 7:32pm after hours (belligerent voicemail from *** *******)


          9/14/2022 – 8am - The Office manager passed
      message to the VP and the VP returned the call to *** ******* and tried to
      schedule for himself and our most experienced repair tech to go out that
      afternoon and *** ******* agreed. He called back a few minutes later refusing
      our warranty services and cancelled the appointment, informing us that he
      already had the court papers demanding to talk with the owner. He was informed
      the owner was out of town and a message would be sent. (We schedule work all
      over New Mexico and the owner is often out of town taking care of these jobs) A
      message was sent to the owner.
         9/15/2022 –
      ****** ******* (the owner) called *** ******* and told him he could clear some
      time to move their appointment up to the week of Sept. 19th-23rd.
      He told him he would go personally and lift he metal panels to check the underlayment
      to ensure it was not part of the problem. *** ******* again refusing services,
      would not allow him to come out and said that ****** should just take his word
      that the underlayment wasn’t sufficient and that if the roof wasn’t replaced
      there would be legal action.

      In
      conclusion, Each and every phone call/ voicemail made by the ********* has been
      confrontational before we even have the chance to make an appointment with them.
      When we do return a call to schedule or address concerns it is met with cursing,
      unacceptable demands, refusal of services and legal action threatened every
      time. We pride ourselves in honoring our warranties and doing everything
      possible to alleviate and resolve any issues or concerns but if the customer
      continuously refuses allow us to go out to their property, then there is very
      little we can do. Hopefully this can somehow be resolved without legal action
      but if the current situation we find ourselves in continues, we will
      regretfully have to turn this matter over to our attorneys.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      The dates *** ******* provided are dates we are not available. He is not flexible in his scheduling. The warranty work they do provide us with caulking, so how are we not to be irate. Also, we found out a permit was not pulled for the job as per NM Construction industries. 



      Regards,



      ****** *******

      As noted in our response to this complaint, ****** *******, the owner/president initially set up an appointment for October 4, 2022 to meet with *** ******* to address his concerns about the underlayment and the caulking repair. When the last warranty call came in on 9/13/22 and *** ******* refused services, ****** called him and offered to move the 10/4 appointment up to the week of 09/19 - 09/23. *** ******* said he would not be available any day that week and ****** would not be available the next week so the appointment on 10/4 still stands.
