Fixed the problem the same day. Very efficient.Posted on BeverlyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed to have Lead boots/flashings replaced on 2 homes for the purpose of activating the Radon systems and wanted to install a particular brand of boot that I would order. Steve took a look at what I wanted to use, gave it the OK and scheduled Nick and Christian out to measure the existing boots to make sure I ordered the correct size. Once I had the boots in hand, Steve worked on the scheduling. In the mean time I called Steve to add scope to repair 2 areas of the soffit damaged by animals. Steve added that the scope and scheduled Nick and Christian out to do the work. The communications from Nick were absolutely excellent and the work was very well done. This was my second experience with Klemm. A few years ago we had the aluminum cover for the facia blow off in storm up on the highest peak of the house. The piece was bent and I was worried about a new piece matching. Klemm came out and put the old piece back up and it looks great.Posted on Antoinette BaranekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
