Jk Contractors Inc

JK Contractors destroyed my nearly new roof when they installed gutters. Instead of removing the old gutters by cutting them off, as agreed in the proposal, they instead tore/ripped them off my home, cracking or tearing every shingle around the roof perimeter, often extending up several levels, and shredded the ice and water shield in the process. Roof decking is wet, there is no ice and water shield, my 50 year roof warranty is voided, many times before and on the day of the project Jeff Kurz confirmed there would be absolutely no damage to my roof shingles -he lied. There are water spots on two walls, and the upstairs smells of wet wood - a sign of mold. I need a complete new roof, wet roof decking replaced and any found mold and materials located, remediated and replaced. Though I have called and written multiple times, Jeff Kurz has provided no response. I am working directly with his insurance company and filed a claim. A lawsuit will be initiated for any fees not recovered. I wish I was the only person who suffered this treatment. Unfortunately, I am not. Within hours of posting my experience on NextDoor, 3 people came forward with even worse experiences with Jeff Kurz and JK Contractors - flooding, mold, rotting wood from the roof to the basement, in all cases he did not call back, did not resolve the problem, did not stand behind his 10-year warranty. The gutters were also unsatisfactory - they were initially installed with no downspouts, one has an S Curve, the drainage slope on each is irregular and water pools, though the contract promises 2 foot spacing between gutter hangers, it is commonly 27-33 inches. JK installed only 6 inch diverters, due to product backorder. I texted and called many times to warn him a severe storm with 1/2 inch of rain was coming, and without temporary downspouts installed of a different color, my foundation walls would be soaked and my basement would flood - he assured me he was a roofing professional and knew there would not be a problem. Unfortunately I was right - it all happened and items in the basement were destroyed. The cost adjustment he offered post-flooding did not cover the value of items lost. Basement walls are still wet. In this case I was fortunate - at least he returned my calls.

I'm not sure of the date yet JK Contractors did a great job on the roof as well as taking care of all the soffits, fascia and installed new gutters. Our next door neighbor used them as well.
