Absolutely do not recommend. Below I posted my BBB Report. The salesman intentionally mislead me into over ten thousand dollars worth of home repairs by assuring me everything we discussed was included. I made an insurance claim 8/6. Rapid Exteriors was recommended to me by our realtor so I called and they met with the adjuster. I asked for an estimate right away due to the sale of our home. The salesman Kane said he wouldn't give me an estimate or schedule until he say the insurance paperwork. When I received the paperwork I emailed it to him and he said he could have it completed in the 2 or 3 week time frame that we had until closing. Kane sent me a contact on 8/11. I emailed, called, and texted him asking if it included everything we talked about (the roof, window clads, and gutters) he assured me by text on 8/11 and phone 8/12 that everything would be taken care of. We scheduled the work to be completed on 8/21. On Thursday 8/20 the materials were dropped off. I received a text from Kane that night that now the roofers were 2 days behind. I tried calling him but he did not answer. I sent him a text And he assured me again everything would be completed. After he spoke with my realtor they decided the roofing crew would come on Saturday. The roofing crew showed up and worked until 7:30. At 8pm Kane texted he wanted to come pick up the check. The following Sunday we arranged to meet in the afternoon, when he came we showed him some concerns. I asked him about the gutters being done and at this time he told us they were NOT included in the price and they were subcontracted to a different company but we would just pay Rapid Exteriors for everything and asked us to pay for the roof. We told him we wanted our concerns fixed and that we thought gutters and clads were included in the price. He just replied that he doesn't know what to say and that I signed the contract. Their contract says that they will be honest and ethical and I believe I was intentionally misguided
