“Excellent service, compass roofing gave me an excellent price with a great service communications and time frames were to a T . I have just recently retired from building with some roofing experience but to old to carry that sort of work out good to see the boys working hard and doing it right the roof looks great . Thanks Colin I hope I can put more work your way.”
“I really cant relate to the negative comments here. I have no complaints and would definitely recommend. Work was delayed due to really wet couple weeks which I have no issue with.... workers safety must come first. We needed a new roof on one of our rentals....the guys were awesome workers with a great foreman on the job. There was one part of the guttering above the doorway that had come away at the joint so water always poured out .... today when it rained I wondered why the water wasnt”
“Compass Roofing did our roof last month there communication was excellent they always let us know when everything was happening or not happening as there were a few delays with the weather but all in all was fantastic the boys were friendly and polite our roof looks great I would recommend Compass Roofing to all friends and family”
I wish I had seen all the bad feed back on here. My elderly mother engaged their services and is now out of pocket for over $10,000. We had to engage another company to clean up the mess and they knew of these bandits. Sam took advantage of an elderly person and scammed her. Sam and associates should be behind bars.
***DO NOT RECOMMEND*** They will take your money & they wont show up to do the work! This company is in liquidation & the owners are bankrupt but are still ripping people off! Sam Spence & his wife Jessica are con artists & a waste of oxygen!
Please do not use this company. We have been quoted between $12,000 and $33,000 to repair the illegal (works don't comply with the building code) and sub-standard works they carried out. We also had to take trespass notices out against employees. If you've already signed a contract with them start arranging for a building report ASAP... Happy to provide a building report to substantiate the above.
DO NOT TRUST THESE PEOPLE!!!!! As a supplier to Compass Roofing when their truck needed 2 new tyres, then despite repeated promises to pay and 16 months latter still havent, you shouldnt trust this business particularly Jess Brechelt and Sam Spence....their word isnt worth s#!t unfortunately. If you think my comments are sour grapes....read the reviews on these guys on Nocowboys here....it sums them up. DO NOT TRUST!!!!
We had no issues with these guys. We had them do a full re-roof on our house. The work was held up by the terrible weather we have had in Auckland recently so the scaffolding and roofing supplies were on site for some time before they could begin but once the weather cleared the job was done and the scaffolding down in 2 days total. The guys worked quickly and the new roof looks great. We were also offered a discount due to the amount of time the scaffolding was up for. I had to chase them
I contracted Compass Roofing (Caspian Engineering) to remove an old asbestos roof, extend the eave and roof line 400mm from the house to give the house a better look and proper drip line, and replace the roof with new long run to match another part of the roof we had already had replaced a couple years ago. The job also required the replacement of an internal gutter with copper spouting and new copper downpipes. The downpipes needed to diverted into the storm water system and required a core
Due to Compass Roofing threatening me with legal action I am removing an inflammatory statement in my post. I did not have a good experience with this company and can not in good conscience recommend them.
We had our roof replaced by Compass Roofing in August. Work was fine and we were pleased with it. However, the men threw something on our washing line and damaged it. Although the line had a bit of damage before that, it was useable and we had used it for 2-3 years with no problems. We made the mistake of paying in full for the job - $15k - before they replaced the line. We have only just received a replacement line - 4 months later, this after many emails to the company. Finally Gene was
I contacted Compass Roofing with an urgent roof job and they saved the day after we were let down by another roofing company. I was provided with a detailed quote, great communication, and immediate service. The guys were out on site within a couple of hours to install the roof and the Director of the company also visited and took the time to check everything was done properly so it was obvious they cared about the job. Overall they made it very easy for me and provided a personal and
I simply wished some of the these other ratings were posted before we hired Compass Roofing. Similar story to others. We too should have raised alarm bells when they consistently failed to clarify their scope or amend the contract, and the emails and documents were riddled with spelling errors etc. Since hiring them and agreeing to a programme the builder found it difficult to get them back on site to complete the works as per the consented plans. They didn't complete the works as per
We engaged compass 8 weeks ago to carry out re-roof on 2 of our rentals, after looking at bad feedback we were hesitant but still went ahead as Compass came referred and recommended, the roofing project went very well and quickly despite poor weather delaying start dates, but will defiantly use this crowd again. Warren who we doubt with was very helpful in recommendations of re-pitching low pitched area of roof and very communicative. Steve and Jill
USE THIS COMPANY AT THRE PERIL OF YOUR DOLLARS. We were supposed to have our roof and gutters replaced in April 2014 by compass. Sam the business owner came along to quote us, he seemed pleasant and at this stage answered our phone calls. The price wasn't the cheapest but we liked Sam so we went ahead with the job. When we received the quote it was practically illiterate we should have known then. The first thing compass did a day after accepting the quote and weeks before starting the job was
I have used Compass Roofing to replace my roof and it took them 5 months to complete the work. The quality is very sub-standard and the response by the owner of the business is very poor. I do not recommend this company to anyone.
Took Compass Roofing to tribunal for bad workmanship. Not only was it bad work but they also threatened us. We had an independent builders report carried out which came back as shoddy workmanship, etc. We had to get a solicitor because of the threats we were receiving. We won the tribunal case. Compass Roofing broke the Consumers Guarantee Act 1993 and the Fair Trading Act 1996. The company was ordered to pay us approx $13,000 by the 15 October 2015. They have paid us. Our roof still leaks
Excellent service good to deal with definitely recommend to other people job well done compass roofing Thank you
