Overheard - contributed by secretroofer on 04/16/2007Roofer Voice Mails -- 1Man's Voice: I'm sure you've been overwhelmed by calls with all this rain. But we really need help. I'm sure everyone says that too. But we do. I didn't tell you last message. Our roof collapsed entirely, so did the 2nd and 3rd floors. (pauses) Man's Voice, cont: Our house is gutted. It's also fallen through a big hole in the ground, so dirt is pouring in all the windows. It's pitch dark. EMT trucks are outside. I'm told we're on the news nationally, and we don't have much oxygen. So I'm hoping, our sick kids are hoping too, especially the one with asthma, that you'll find the time to stop by this week, or at least maybe give us a call with an ETA. Thank you. God bless you....overhear more --Overheard in: Northern NJ-- I live in Westchester, my - submitted by flooded on 04/16/2007
I live in Westchester, my basement is flooded. Now I know how to get my roofer's attention. Apparently 20 messages begging isn't enough. This is so funny. My roofer is scum. If he - submitted by Anonymous on 04/16/2007
My roofer is scum. If he heard our house sunk to the middle of the earth, he'd still not return our calls. But I like this guy's approach. We're in southern NJ and our - submitted by desperate on 04/16/2007
We're in southern NJ and our basement is flooded. Our roofer is my brother in law and he still doesn't come over. Probably because he's making too much money helping non-relatives. I never liked him. After these past 2 days, I like him less. Soooooooo funny! I wouldn't - submitted by Anonymous on 04/16/2007
Soooooooo funny! I wouldn't be surprised if this roofer were my roofer. He's just the kind of a-hole who'd save desperate messages and laugh at them later. It's sick. But this is so funny I'm glad he did. Brilliant. We're reduced to - submitted by helper on 04/16/2007
Brilliant. We're reduced to installing blue tarps over our roof now. Our roofer won't be making it our way for weeks, I'm sure. This message is exactly what I should've done. Maybe I will now. I love the EMT touch and the news. Funny funny fun. Glad to see he could keep his sense of humor. I can't. Love this guy's imagination. - submitted by calgurl on 04/16/2007
Love this guy's imagination. Awesome and sad too. Wonder whether he got a response from the roofer, though. My basement has 5 inches of - submitted by Anonymous on 04/17/2007
My basement has 5 inches of water in it from the storm. Yesterday it had 10. I called our roofer and plumber and neither has called back. No surprise. Our roof nearly did - submitted by Anonymous on 04/17/2007
Our roof nearly did collapse. I called the roofing person and begged. I did it 5 times and he came this morning. He looked at the house and said, yea it's just about collapsed. Then he said he could come back in a week or so. He put one of those huge tarps on our roof and I'm already assuming it'll be there the whole spring. Fact that he came at all is a miracle. 4 roofers in my area have - submitted by grateful on 04/17/2007
4 roofers in my area have messages on their answering machines that say, basically, don't leave a message, don't call, we're too busy to deal with you until at least the summer. at least these guys are honest! i could scream, but at least they're honest. so we have a big hole above the kids' bedroom, they'll get used to it. told our roofer the entire - submitted by Anonymous on 04/17/2007
told our roofer the entire new wing collapsed. like our hero. he called right back! he'll be surprised when he comes by the house. but, f-him! he'll get over it. lazy wankers - submitted by Anonymous on 05/07/2007
so i take it none of you tards have any idea how easy it is to work on your own roof? look if they can hire illegal immigrants to do it than i should think somebody who can afford a computer and the internet at their house should have half the brains required to nail some shingles on their roof. gg- lazy people. wilmington roofer sucks "Lane" - submitted by Lane Roofers suck on 01/12/2008
Company sucked so bad. I would ask a question and they just stared. QUE??? Caught two roofers smoking pot on my back deck while having lunch. Fired them, did some research and learned to do it my self. Got inspected, passed. Saved about $11,000 and it hasn't leaked for three years now. The owner of the roofers is my neighbor. Think he'll recommend me? Calm the fuck down - submitted by Anonymous on 03/03/2008
Hm, maybe most of you complainers should maintain your roofs instead of calling a contractor in the middle of the night *after* your roof collapses. Your emergency does not make it their emergency, asswipes. |
