Would not recommend Shannon! Took half payment and never did the job! Called for months and just got run around! Did not get money back. He eventually just stopped answering the phone.

I would not recommend Shannon Speak or use him again. I would give him 1 star for timeliness for the following reasons: He was supposed to start our garage build the end of August. He did not start our job until the end of September. He would show up for a day and then you wouldn't see him for another week or two. Meanwhile, almost daily my husband would receive text messages from him saying when he would be at our job again and he wouldn't show up. This went on and on. Pretty much he would just show up on the weekends to work on our garage. We had 2 custom made garage doors that cost over $10,000 that sat for so long that they got mildew and mold all over them. The one section of a garage door was also warped and needed to be replaced. Replacement cost was $1575 plus $320 installation fee. The contract we had with him had him installing both garage doors but we went ahead and hired someone else because he was taking so long. I would give him 2 stars for craftsmanship for the following reasons: We chose Shannon Speak because he had good reviews on Home Advisor and he said he had worked with Hardi Plank siding. It seems difficult to find siding installers in Iowa that want to work with Hardi plank siding. It is used a lot in Atlanta were we moved from. He installed chipped and cracked siding. We did not have any of those issues when we had Hardi plank siding installed on our house in Atlanta. He left a huge gap between the siding and garage door opening that he caulked. It looks like my 5 year old grandson did the caulk job--it is terrible. My husband is going to need to removed it all and re-caulk that area. He sub contracted the roof job and that company did a terrible job installing the flashing. He never picked up the left over pallets of siding like the contract said he would. He said he was going to come pick it up about 4 weeks ago and it is still sitting in our driveway. We had to emphasize over and over to him that we did not want workers without papers doing any of the work, I asked him to make sure anyone that worked on our garage had papers proving that were here to work legally. Because of this request we had to wait and wait to get our roof installed because he supposedly couldn't find any crews that had legal workers. We gave him names of 2 different companies that our neighbors recommended and low and behold he was able to find someone after all. It seems like the work he did at the end of the job was really sloppy. It seems like he was just worried about getting his last payment and was asking to get full payment the day before he finished. Ummm.....HECK NO! When we gave him the last payment we took out the cost of replacing the ruined garage door section and installation. We are not the only ones that had problems with him finishing their jobs. My husband heard a voice message come over Shannon's phone that said "Get yourself over here and finish the job". The garage build did not get finished u

Owner of the company did the initial walk thru and developed the estimate. Was very competitive with local vendors. Missed the estimated start date by 1 month, which was discerning, and was short handed on the crew(s). Job foreman was excellent w communication and extremely particular w details.. Finished product exceeded our expectations... Just slooooow.

He did a good job that I was happy with. Do think he over charged me still I was willing to pay him for his work. To be honest I might call him again.

They responded immediately to my home improvement inquiry (within 1/2 hour)!! Very knowledgeable, and courteous. Estimate was very reasonable and came to fix it as promised within a week. You can't ask for a better response time and repair quality. Thankyou Shannon Speak.

"I never did any work for these folks. I'm not sure why or how Home Advisor accepted this rating."
