BUYER BEWARE!!! We paid for project materials up front and Petes General Contracting went MIA, not responding to voicemail and text messages for over 4 months. He finally showed up and finished the work 4.5 months later, but tried to write a fraudulent check against our bank account which the bank caught. Beware - hes a smooth talker but cannot be trusted!!!

I hired them originally to replace the gutter in the front of our house and to look at our roof. I appreciated their honesty on the state of our roof. I ended up not replacing the gutter at first. I had them come back out to replace the old gutter with a 6 seamless gutter and a new downspout. They did a great job. We also agreed to do the back of the house with the same and to put in some gutter screens that they asked me to buy, which I did. They told me they would be back within a couple of days. After numerous texts and a phone call, I have not heard from them so I am left believing they are not coming to do the remaining work. The work they did was great. They just do not respond in a timely manner. So, my recommendation is to hire them but make sure you get everything done that day. If you plan on having follow-up work, you may not get a return call/text. And, I do not think it is unreasonable to expect a response back within a day or so. Updated 8/20/2022...I posted a review about them already but need to let people know that I discovered an issue. The issue is that they did not complete work that they said they did.

Quick turnaround, reasonable price and did a great job on a relatively small project.

It could not have been better. He was prompt, personable, explained exactly what he was going to do and why and gave me an estimate on a new roof which he said I would probably need in 3-5 years. His price was fair and he gave me the cost of a new roof which I will let him do when the time comes! One of the other contractors who contacted me pushed me to get a new roof without even seeing mine. He said insurance would cover all but the deductible and he had done this numerable times. It almost smacked of insurance fraud and when I called my insurer, they told me, as I suspected, it was not that simple!

Seal of Approval

What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

  1. Verify Trade License
    HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
  2. Verify Insurance
    As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
  3. Verification of State Business Filings
    For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
  4. Criminal Records Search
    HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
  5. Sex Offender Search
    We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
  6. Bankruptcy Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
  7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
  8. Liens Search
    We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
  9. Identity Verification (SSN)
    HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
  10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
    We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
