We are very upset customers. We had an estimate and had Chiefs Gutters come out to the house prior to look at exactly what work needs to be done. Both myself and husband took off of work to be home for the project 3 weeks after estimate was given. The crew arrived the day of the appointment and decided that to complete the same work quoted it was going to cost significantly more and left without further explanation because the owner is out of town. The owner, Fred, called us and we told him we still want the work done today for what was quoted. He said his team informed him we needed 2.5x more hangers than what was originally quoted. This was not discussed when his team was on-site earlier and we wanted only the work done we quoted. He turned from blaming his estimator to blaming his team. He was very unprofessional and said he already sent his team home for the day. We calmly told him we are very unhappy with his service after we took time off from work to get this done and will be using another company if he can’t come out today to get the work done and he hung up on us. I have never had such unprofessional communication. Do yourself a favor and use gutter buddies or brother who do just gutters… we will be.

This company did a great job on my 1930s home. New gutters handle heavy rains, no spillover. Prompt, professional crew does a clean, neat job. House looks BEAUTIFUL!Reasonably priced. I highly recommend.

In addition to some siding that needed replacing, we had to have the facia wrapped, and some sections replaced. In the midst of supply chain issues I found their communication very helpful, and I was VERY pleased with the work done. It doesn’t hurt that the crew was nice to my pups! I would recommend to anyone who wants a quality job done.

These guys were great!! Professional!! Excellent installation of over 1000ft of new gutters and 30 downspouts. Very commumicative. Built gutters on site for a custom installation. Only seams were at corners. Install was proven by successfully draining massive rain last weeks. Finished the job in 2.5 days with 2 rain outs midday. Highly recommended!!

Very friendly on the phone and when they came out to do the estimate they were even more friendly. Will update after installation. Today they showed up on time and was quick to get the entire house done with gutters. They look excellent. They took the time to answer all questions that I had. Will use them again and tell everyone about them.

No communication skills. Used them in my Suffolk house for gutter repairs and once on site the workers do a great job. Office does not return calls. Had a scheduled meeting at my Norfolk house and they did not show up. Did not return numerous calls after that. Would not recommend them due entirely to their office staff behavior.

The guys came out and did an awesome job.
Professional and on time.
We had some rotten wood issues and they fixed that also.
Would recommend then to anyone!

I could not give them 5 stars for the following reasons, I will say that they have a real customer service issue with response to calls, I to had the same problem however, when they finally respond the work is great, the install went smooth and we were very satisfied with their service. Having said that, upon my last two service visits Chief’s fail in giving written quotes which I find frustrating because both visit there was some question of what the quote was in the original estimate. If they address those two things it would make huge improvements in my experiences. Nonetheless, they have enlisted a new customer and I will do business with them again.

Professional, knowledgeable, and friendly service. Excellent work and they won't deplete your bank account. I had one of his guys come out and give me an estimate in 10 minutes. I would recommend them to anyone.

I rarely write reviews but want to thank Chiefs Gutter Service for exceptional service today at both of my houses that were in desperate need of a good gutter cleaning. I was able to schedule both houses for the same day, and the team was prompt, professional and thorough at each location. It was tough to find a company who cleans gutters and I am glad I found Chiefs. Thank you!

Came out to repair a gutter. They did not fix it properly and then would not return my calls or messages. Then they sent a bill for the work even though they never fixed it. I finally had to hire someone else to do the gutter repair. Customer service seems to be horrible and they would not reply to me at all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Waste of my time. And NO I did not pay that bill.

Left THREEE messages trying to get them to come out and give me an estimate. No reply at all!!! Three strikes your out. I went somewhere else to get my gutters. Terrible business that does not even bother to reply to customers and does not seem to want any new business. Very disappointed in them.

The timeline for a roof replacement typically ranges from one to three days, depending on the size and complexity of the roof, weather conditions, and material type. Larger or more intricate roofs may take a bit longer, but we always aim for efficient, timely completion.

To hire a roofing contractor, start by researching local companies with good reviews and proper licensing. Request quotes from multiple contractors, verify their insurance and certifications, and ask for references. Always ensure you get a written contract that outlines the scope of work, timeline, and payment terms.

4. How to check if a roofing company is legit?
+-

Check if a roofing company is legit by verifying their business license, insurance, and local certifications. Look for memberships in professional associations, read customer reviews, and ask for recent project references. A legitimate company will be transparent and provide all documentation upon request.

5. How to choose a roofing company?
+-

When choosing a roofing company, consider their experience, customer reviews, warranty offerings, and quality of materials. Make sure they provide clear communication, detailed estimates, and a solid portfolio of completed projects. Local expertise is also a major advantage for understanding regional roofing needs.

6. How do you know if your roofing contractor is ripping you off?
+-

Warning signs that your roofing contractor might be ripping you off include vague contracts, pressure to pay large upfront deposits, lack of proper documentation, and unexplained price increases. Always ask for itemized estimates and written guarantees, and avoid contractors who avoid answering your questions directly.
