SAL Construction Services

***3rd Edit: It has been less than 2 years and the roof has failed (leaks) in the areas around the skylight that we were originally concerned about. The crew that they knowingly hired did not address the ice and water shield installation concerns we had, nor the damage to the skylights that also included damage to the interior of the home. They truly just ripped the skylights out as they were removing the old roof, which ripped the drywall on the interior of the home (videos and photos were provided to them day of) They also damaged our gutters and siding. They credited us a small amount to repair the "cosmetic damage" to the interior of the walls around the skylight but would not assist further nor would address the deficiencies in workmanship and installation. We have attempted to contact SAL construction but there is no answer, the voicemail is full and none of the employees we had contact information for work for him any longer. Turns out, this Contractor has worked in another state in which he was not licensed and defrauded people there. He is being sued by several customers in that state as well as by people in Central Illinois as well for insurance fraud. The BBB has now given him an F rating and we have hope that the IDFPR will follow suit and place sanctions in some way so that others are not defrauded. 2nd edit: some acknowledgent has been made that there is a problem with the work, but nothing formal from SAL construction. Several new deficiencies have been identified even. However, they are still asking for my insurance check and continuing the same shoddy work. No tradesperson from SAL Construction has bothered to contact me, although we have spoken with the office and another person that we aren't even sure who he works for (the public adjustor vs construction company). The project manager first denied, then gave me 3 different explanations, changing them as he was presented worh proof that what he was saying wasn't factual. We have photos, videos, factory rep documentation and are considering our legal options. They take no responsibility as if they have no control over the quality of the services they sell you. Also, note the most recent reviews. Positive, but read them and see for youself whether they sound like legitimate reviews or not 1st edit: edited to add that shortly after this review, I contacted them again and I did receive a callback witha promise to make it right. I do intend to update this review once the service has ended and all the work is completed and damages reconciled. Don't do it!!! They will hire someone out of another state to do the work. The people they chose for our job are incompetent. Completely ripped out every skylight, set them back up in their crooked. Ripped them away from the drywall on the inside even! The gutters, which they were not replacing, are damaged and ripped now. Nails everywhere!!! Everywhere outside of the house. We stopped counting at 25 in the walking path where the kids and the dog and everyone else goes. The diclosure we were provided with stated that 'our roofing crew' uses a magnet. First, it's not their crew--they either don't care who they hire or aren't any more competent than the crew responsible for this masterpiece The worst contracted service we have ever been a part of. We chose this company under pressure from a public adjustors people and are deeply regretting it. We're in contact with our insurance company since they are funding the work--thankfully we haven't paid anyone yet. . ! . It's pretty unbelievable. And we have photos for every finding and more than I've shared here. If you're considering hiring this outfit for a home project, three words of advice for you: DON'T DO IT!! Go with the people you know and trust. Normally I wait to post reviews, but in case someone in Central Illinois was reading reviews to make a decision tonight, this is for you. I let golks at SAL construction know tonight and was told"the boss" would be notified. Let them know about 545 and they decided they would just handle it in the am.

SAL Construction is an absolute pleasure to work with. Over the years they have installed 15+ roofs for us as we own several duplexes in addition to our own home. Scott L. is a great project manager to work with - knowledgeable, through, and his attention to detail is A+. Amanda in the office kept a close eye on our claims & ran all the interference with the insurance company which is no easy task. The last storm that rolled through our community left our roof with lots of missing shingles. We didn’t realize this until the roof started to leak. SAL went out of their way to schedule and ensure my install was completed before the next rain forecast. The install crew was fantastic, on time, professional, and when they left the roof was the envy of my neighbors and my surrounding landscaping was spotless. I highly recommend SAL Construction if you are ever in need of assistance with an insurance claim. We are customers for life!

Scott from SAL Construction was our project manager. He was professional, knowledgeable and treated me with respect. He explained everything to me, kept me informed and was very friendly, plus he was on site to make sure all of my concerns were communicate to the team.. The roof crew arrived at the specified time and began work immediately. This team put up 2450+ shingles in just one day and completed the hip & ridge shingles in a few hours the following morning. The job was complete with tear-off, new felt paper, drip edges, ice and water barriers, and perfect transitions from one roofline to another. The clean up job was amazing, and none of my shrubs or flowers were damaged. The install crew really cared about their job as well as satisfying me, the customer. Lastly, the roof is gorgeous! I am so glad I chose your company and thank you for the competent crew that completed the job timely. Great work!

I'm only sorry we only have one roof! SAL did an impressive job of putting a new roof on my home. From start to finish, it was a great experience. The project manager was informative, clear, and knowledgeable. The crew arrived precisely when they promised, worked diligently the full day, minus a lunch break, with no hanging around or wasted time, and did exceptional work. Their attention to keeping the mess to a minimum was impressive and the clean-up was better than I could have imagined, going through shrubs, etc - gently - to make sure they had nails, roof pieces, etc. My roof has many angles and a couple dormers and their perfect installation resulted in a flawless finish! What an impressive company! You can count on what they say, and their work is impressive.

Well let me tell you about a great company from start to finish. Scott Lennington the owner was hands on from the beginning of the claims process to the very end. He is by far the best in his business. I am a former insurance agent and home adjuster of 8 years. Scott is a true professional, and his crew was outstanding with the craftsmanship and to the end with the cleanup. I had to make a few calls into SAL constructions office to verify appointments and Amanda his team staff leader was awesome. If you need roofing, siding or gutters you would be wise to use this very professional company. Thank you to the SAL owner and team. I am a very satisfied customer and will refer anyone that comes my way in the market for his services! Thanks again, Jeff Sullivan
