AAA Superior Construction

Home Improvement

We sold our former home in Berkeley Hts., NJ, on July 11, 2017. Couple weeks before the closing, we unexpectedly found out that we were not allowed to close the deal because the 2009 installer of the new roof failed the inspection and never closed the permit due to some problems with the roof ventilation. That company does not exist anymore. So we needed to urgently find out somebody to correct the problem.

My wife and I, both 80+ years old, now live 85 miles north of the place. Still, on June 28 we met on the spot with Mr. Deegan of the Deegan Roofing Co., showed him the inspector’s report of 2009 and asked for his advice. He told that it was not a big deal – a work of two people for the most part of a day – and promised to give the estimation. Because he delayed the estimation, our real estate agent gave as a card of AAA Superior Construction, and I called them and faxed the inspector’s report.

On June 29th Chris of that company promised to give estimation the next morning and to immediately start the work if we approve. He called on June 30 when I headed for an urgent appointment with my cardiologist (I had 2 stents implanted the next day after the closing) and was not in the condition for the detailed discussion, still not having the promised Deegan’s estimation. There was the following conversation with Chris: “The price will be six thousand…” Me: “What?!” He: “Or, no, no, no! I mistakenly took another project. Just $3,800.”

It also seemed to me too expensive but I was not in a position to seek another company and authorized the repair. Later that day the estimation from Deegan arrived, and it was just $1,500. I sent the estimate to the AAA Company and requested a partial refund. They flatly refused. When I asked for explanation of the so huge difference, the owner Mark wrote that they had been ready to do the work rapidly and to meet the closing deadline. But, first, the closing could be postponed. Second, I would understand that the urgency could cost extra $200-300, but by no means extra $2,300! During our 36 years of that house’s ownership we had never encountered so huge overpricing. It is obviously that the AAA Superior Construction just used our inability to check proper pricing. When I wrote Mark that we may dispute the charge through our VISA card, he replied: “I will be filing charges for theft of services”. Using the same language, I would say that the company has made a theft of our money.

I will file complaints with the BBB and with other organizations.

Like some other posters, I saw this company on yellowpages.com. The name listed there is not the same as the name on the BBB website which has abysmal reviews. I did not know this at the time. Scheduled them for a simple job. I wait all day calling and calling wondering where they are. Finally they show up 6 hours later and tell me they cannot do the job today. I call the company back to officially cancel and the guy on the phone cusses me out, uses some choice words with me, and says things to me that you should never say to a human being (I will not repeat them here).

Bottom line: The negative reviews on any website are legit. Check out bbb.com and complaintslist.com.

Just by the way the owner responds to negative feedback is all the information you need to stay away.

Allow me to elaborate. Found them in yp's as superior gutters-needed to get gutters cleaned. Turns out the name is really AAA superior construction ( also found them online as emergency roof repair nj-same Lic # 13VH03411000) Strike one! Ask guy on phone if I can save money paying cash. "absolutely" he says. Guy shows up and tells me cash makes no difference. Strike two! They said the would between at 9-10am, them show up at 10:30. Called the guy at 10am, he said they will be over in 5min. Strike three! NOW FOR THE JUICY PART! Guy (Ben) tells me my furnace exhaust is not up to code, and that there is definitely a carbon monoxide hazard in the home. I have a two year old son. He tells me point blank "I would not keep him in the house even one more day". Got me pretty freaked out. Then tells me he can fix it "today, right now" for $2500, can get it done in 3-4 hrs and has all the materials he needs in the truck! I'm like let me call my wife in hysterics and she tells me to say no so we can discuss it-thank god! I have several CO monitors in home-never an alarm. Guy also tells me that the certified home inspector I hired and went over the house with ignored the safety issues to help the broker sell the house (Yea, the inspector is going to throw away his career and possibly go to jail-yea, sure.) Told me I should rip him a new one. I called the inspector and read of the list of safety issues that I made Ben write down-should have made him sign it. He explained why-point by point- why everything this guy said was wrong. Strikes 4,5,6...you get the idea.
