Trying to reach them to come back to fix it again is worthless as the most you can get to is a secretary or a voice messaging system. Emails are answered after 3 weeks if at all!
At this point I only want my hefty down payment back so I can bring a more qualified company.
OSHA proposed $112,487 in penalties as a result of the citations.
Anyone with the same experience as mine?
I have a flat roof and I one company look at my roof and they told me that I didn't need a new roof. They said the roof itself was fine, but the main issue was that the water was pooling because it didn't have enough places to drain to. I had made the call to Hackensack Roofing already and they came by to give me an estimate and after surveying my roof, they said my roof NEEDED TO BE REPLACED at a cost of $12,000! They were totally going to take me and I wouldn't have known any different! I had my roof issue solved for $2,000! You can't trust anyone!
Hackensack Roofing Co. was cited after inspections in East Rutherford and Wallington, the agency said in a news release.
I'll have to be honest and say our roof is tile so it is a more challenging but when I met Stephen Garino for an estimate he quoted me for many thousands of dollars and was full of confidence that they will fix it in no time.
Hackensack Roofing declined to comment when reached by phone Thursday afternoon.
I need some help as I paid them a big down payment, they tried fixing but did more damage than repair!
Anyone with experience using "Hackensack Roofing Company"?
A Hackensack roofing contractor has been cited for exposing workers to falls and other hazards in southern Bergen County, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration announced Thursday as it proposed fines of more than $112,000.
The company was issued three citations — one of which was considered serious — for lack of fall and eye protection, and for workers throwing shingles from a roof without a container to catch them, according to the release.
They did a full roofing job in 2004. By 2014 our roof started leaking. Called them 5 times and left messages that we needed them to come by and check the roof. No one returned the calls. Finally used another roofer - one I trust - to replace the side of the roof that was leaking. They found that Hackensack had done a shoddy job in the first place - only ran one chalk line so by the time they reached the top of the roof the shingles weren't overlapping properly and after a little weathering easily could have started leaking. Also, their crews are slobs. When they do a roof they just push the old shingles and nails off the side of the roof onto your bushes. We were picking up old shingles and nails for years.
Suggestions?
They have been about 7 times in my house over a span of 3 months!! and still couldn't fix the leaks, actually the leaks are even worst than before they start working on it (more leaks than before they touched the roof!).
OSHA said it inspected a site in East Rutherford on Oct. 18 after inspectors observed employees working on a roof on Carlton Avenue without fall protection. The Wallington inspection was opened in November in response to a complaint alleging fall hazards at the site, the release said.
I had my roof done by them and I have no problem in the past years. Anything can happen. You can insure they are putting quality material and they employees are very responsible.
