@@Oofioli- $30k worth of advertising can get you a lot of targeted ads. Not everyone watches IE, even if this was on the news, a lot of people don’t see all the stories. In the end, the most important thing for this company was that it didn’t actually cost them $30K.. that’s just the retail value. They made amends and fixed their mistake that would have cost them WAY more if the couple sued them and had a different company install the roof. While I commend them on not fighting it, it was really a no brainer move.

Handle every customer like this and it comes back to you. I run multiple brands we shock people with our customer service. When somebody has a broken item and is irate they turn around and end up shouting you out if you hear them and go above and beyond.

So this is what happens when a company has and homeowner have integrity and honesty. So wholesome. That roofing mistake is probably one of the best PR and advertising decisions that the roofers have made in awhile!

A very enjoyable story and because it got posted and went viral will get more people wanting a roof by them. Congratulations to both parties.

The blunder actually gives that business so much good publicity. It's so nice to see a business correct a mistake, with no hassles.

A bad mistake turned into a nice ad campaign, and for the amount of reach it generated it’s actually an amazing deal for them.

I too had the same problem. I live in a duplex. My neighbor passed away and the realtor sent for new rooftop, contractors came and replaced the whole roof on my side, and I notified them to stop. I ended up with a new rooftop at no cost 😊
