      A salesperson from this company came to our house unbidden to sell us on a new roof. Despite being told that the roof had already been ****** recently and was still under warranty with the original roofer, the salesperson insisted that our roof was dangerously close to failing because he had "seen some granularity" on our roof when looking at it from a different property. Despite multiple instances of my wife telling them that we were not interested, didn't want a roofing estimate, had no money to replace a perfectly good roof, and many other reasons that we didn't want a work crew on our property, they refused to leave without scheduling a full consult the following day, while we are at work. Now, we can't get through their customer service line to cancel the appointment. We have a no tresspassing sign and a no soliciting sign clearly posted on our property and they ignored both.

      New roofing was ordered 8/1/2024. Price for project was ****** Dollars. Install took place 8/16/24. Took two days to complete. Noticed oddities and asked project manager to take a look. He found a couple of problems and took care of them that day. He took pictures to show me what was there. I happened to notice that part of the roof was not shingled like the rest. I contacted **** who sold me the product the following week and he promised to come look at it. Spent a month with numerous excuses but never did come out. I contacted DaBella **************** and they put me in contact with ****** who I was told was General Manager. Talked with him the week of 9/16/24 and he seemed ready to correct problem and then disappeared for over two weeks, so here we are Basic complaint is breach of contract. I was sold 25 squares of GAF Weather stopping system with a 50 year warranty. They installed 23 Squares of that and 2 squares of roll on roofing with sticky back (tar paper) and told me it had a 50 yr warranty. *** disagrees and Im now told that those two squares have a 10 year warranty. They made these changes without notification, authorization, or compensation. Normal transaction would have been a change order if necessary. I believe they knew what they were going to do before arriving because they brought the material with them. It also explains the discount they gave me from the original bid of over 36k. If not for seeing the picture of other issues would not have known about switch and color difference. Mistakes can be made, whats important is how you deal with the customer after its discovered and they have failed by epic proportions with someone reasonable and will to resolve problem respectfully. My health is poor and I am not allowed on a ladder so there was no way for me to go up on the roof and look for myself.

      Thank you for sharing your concerns regarding your recent roofing project and we appreciate the opportunity to address them.
      It seems there may be some misunderstanding regarding the materials contracted and used for your roof. The installation was performed in accordance with the contract, which specified the use of Liberty low-slope roofing material on the flat portion above your patio. Aerial images of the property indicate this was a like-for-like replacement and this specific material is designed for areas, like your patio, where shingles aren't typically used due to the low roof slope.We also encourage you to review the "Important Information" section of your contract pertaining to extra material. It is standard practice to order extra material on construction jobs to ensure a continuous flow of work and adequate materials to complete the project as scheduled.While we typically would not reimburse for any leftover material, outside of unused plywood, our attempt to work with you on the matter was cut short when our representative was disconnected during the conversation originating from the other end of the line. 
      You do have a Golden Pledge 50-year manufacturer defect warranty, which includes 25-year misapplication coverage, as contracted and a copy of the registered warranty has been sent to you.***'s warranty for the Liberty system differs from their shingle products, but rest assured, your roof is still fully covered. Our team has taken every step to ensure that the materials and installation meet the highest standards, as evidenced by the manufacturer warranty.
      We understand that communication issues have caused some frustration, and for that, we truly apologize.We have attempted to reach out to you to discuss and clarify these points, but to reiterate, were cut short in our attempt. We remain committed to resolving any remaining concerns and would greatly appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further to address any questions you may have. We may be contacted at, ************** opt 1 should you wish to resolve the matter amicably.

      I thought I did file a complete description of reason, but looking now see that it does not appear. I attached a copy of the contract as proof of what I was charged and what was sold to me. They didn't provide what the contract says. They only supplied 23 of 25 squares of roofing plus 2 squares of roll on roofing. Their response was They gave me what's on the contract. That's untrue. The system I bought had a 50 yr warranty. The supplier only gave me that warranty for system I bought not roll on roofing. To date I still have not received any warranty on the change. I followed up with them earlier today and customer service acknowledged there is no mention of any other system than what I bought. I have offered to accept arbitration. I made sure that when I rejected again their $100 gift card offer. I was not cutting them off as described in their response. I am being polite when I say their response was both insulting and inaccurate. Reason for rejected offer is the contract says specifically what I should expect and I did not receive it. And still haven't.

Aerial images of the property indicate this was a like-for-like replacement, and this specific material is designed for areas, such as your patio, where shingles are not typically used due to the low roof slope.
      Please note that the registered warranty paperwork was initially provided to you electronically on 8/30, and a subsequent copy has been sent today for your convenience. Should you have any questions regarding your warranty, we recommend reaching out to *** directly for further assistance.
      Additionally, we would like to assure you that you were not overcharged for materials. The charges for the materials used were in accordance with the contract and reflect the exact items required to complete the project.
      At this time, there are no additional concerns that need to be addressed regarding this matter. Rest assured, the roof is fully covered under the terms of your Golden Pledge 50-year manufacturer defect warranty, which includes 25-year misapplication coverage, as outlined in your contract. **** warranty for the Liberty system differs from their shingle products, but your roof remains fully covered under this comprehensive warranty. Our team has ensured that the materials and installation meet the highest standards, as reflected in the manufacturer warranty.

      Complaint: 22392780

      I am rejecting this response because: first of all this material in question is not warranted for 50 yes as stated. The contract does not specify the use of any other product as confirmed by their customer service. The warranty offered by both the manufacturer and DaBella only covers the 23 squares of the correct material,  not the 2 squares of the roll on roofing. I offered to go to arbitration and instead they offered a $100 gift card which I rejected. DaBella continues to insist the contract doesn't say what it says. I have forwarded a copy of said contract to the bbb for your evaluation. I am more than willing to put this before arbitration, unfortunately DaBella seems to reject that idea. I would only ask why.

      Sincerely,

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

      We want to confirm that your roofing project was completed according to the contract, using the specified Liberty low-slope roofing material for the flat portion of your patio. This material is designed for low-slope areas where shingles are not suitable. Ordering extra materials is standard practice to prevent delays. While we do not typically reimburse for leftover materials (other than unused plywood), we did attempt to address your concerns, although our call was disconnected.
      Any warranty concerns should be directed to *** for further assistance. We understand that some details may still be unclear, and we are happy to clarify any remaining questions. Please contact us at **************, option 1, so we can discuss any concerns you may still have.

      I agreed to have DaBella replace 23 windows and 1 sliding door in July 2023. They replaced them in November of 2023. I was unhappy with many of the windows, but they told me to sign off otherwise the 2 installers would not get paid. I figured that they did their job so I said to write down the work that needed to be done to complete the job correctly. Needless to say, I have been hounded by the credit company to pay for the windows, and as the picture shows, they are not satisfactory. I have been dealing with this since last fall and am exhausted. I even went to ****** the manufacturer of my windows. I have them involved as well, but still, nothing is getting done. I had the city of Savage out here because DaBella did not pull a permit in the beginning, did not put any flashing under the patio door, and had to recaulk all the windows outside before the city would get off their back. Now I'm left dealing with the inside mess! I want to take them to small claims court. I know the limit is $20,000, and my bill is more than that, but anything is better than nothing. Please advise...thank you!

      Salesman comes to my house and wastes 5 hours of my day with this insane script. Takes pictures of my house, attic, and roof. I asked him over five times if he'll send me the pictures he took, if he'll text me the photos. Each time he said he would. He never did...What a crazy company.

      Dabella roofing was contracted to replace my entire roof at *****************************************************************************. I was promised by the salesman the workers would all be factory trained professionals. What showed up at my house on the 6th of June 2024 was anything but professional. Not one of the workers that was here the first day spoke English, I had to use the cable installer to translate for me. The workers were not wearing protective gear or harnesses while up on the roof. The house is three stories tall, and the top pitch has a 12/12 pitch. At the end of the first day the workers left their refuse from lunch in my garage along with their empty beer cans. Not what I would expect from professionals. I also noticed a number of cigarette butts laying in my yard, I am not a smoker and do not allow smoking or cigarette butts to be thrown down in the yard. As a Veteran I learned to have a real distaste for butts thrown on the ground, I asked them not to do this on the beginning of day two. They however continued to do this. When they were finished with the roof, and I had a chance to see the damage to the siding on the house where large pieces were torn off and not replaced. All of the Facia material was taken off the house and none of it was replaced. The cap that runs along the top of the roof sections was not straight and looks like it was put there by a person without any training. There are places in the roof where the shingles sag, are not straight, have bumps and ripples in them and in places it looks like they did not fix the underlayment before putting the new sheeting and shingles on. The roofing subcontractor that came to the house I found out later was not Dabella but was Sawtooth roofing from Council *****. The mess that was left cost me over $750 dollars to have hauled away and the damage to the ** System was almost $800 dollars. *** ***** the local corporate boss in ********, ***** said he would take care of this. He has not taken care of the problem.

      They installed the windows on August 13th and I paid $10,000. They told me I needed new casing and lining in 2 windows. I told them I needed my custom blinds to fit and they assured me the only change is that they wouldnt be as deep so the blinds would be closer to the edge of the window box. The day after they were installed I tried to put up the blinds but they didnt fit. They said they would fix it and even when I left a review they assured me they would have someone come fix it. No one has returned my calls or emails.

      Dabella installed a new roof on our house. There have been two roof leak events, both of which led to damage to the inside of our house.Dabella repaired the roof two times. Dabella did not cover the cost of the internal water damage and water remediation for these two roof leak events. We are seeking coverage of this internal water damage that was related to a roof leak after the installation of our new roof by Dabella. I paid for both internal house damage bills since Dabella did not pay for these and ****** threatened to submit the bill to collections.

      I am rejecting this response because: there are 2 different events with leaking of the new roof causing significant internal water entry and damage in the home. The first roof leak event has been acknowledged with a report of a check being issued, but the second roof leak event with internal damages has not been acknowledged by DaBella yet.

      Sincerely,

      9/19/24 I have a "no soliciting" sign on my home. It is reasonably and visibly posted, at eye level, above the door bell of my home. It is illegal to solicit in my city when such signage is posted. Dabella door to door salesman rang the doorbell anyway and began his pitch. I politely told him I wasn't interested and directed his attention to the sign. He again tried to start his pitch. I stated that I wasn't interested and politely asked him to leave. He wouldn't. He wanted to argue. I more aggressively told him to get off my property and that I was calling the police. He continued to argue and wouldn't leave. Had to call the police to have him trespassed.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      Flagstaff City code specifically prohibits this practice when a no soliciting sign is posted at a residence or business.

      3-01-001-0010 SOLICITATION PROHIBITED
      It shall be unlawful for any person in the course of business to ring the doorbell or knock at any building:

      A.    Where a sign bearing the words "no peddlers," "no solicitors" or similar wording is posted for public view; or

      B.    Before 8:00 a.m. or after 8:00 p.m. (Ord. *******, Amended, 06/19/2018)

      Regardless of your claim at offering a "free inspection" service. You are offering the claimed service as a foot into the door to sell services which is prohibited when posted on the property. 

      You're representative was operating in the course of business and should not be attempting to make contact at homes where such signage is posted. As it was in this case.

      Sincerely,

      I am rejecting this response because:

      As a business you actively engage in solicitation. 

      To solicit is to "ask for or try to obtain (something) from someone."

      It's literally the definition of the word. You're  sales person knocking on my door is literally the definition of soliciting. 

      The problem obviously stems from the top of the business.
