David E. Gilliland and Weathertight Systems DID NOT FINISH JOB! Clearwater Florida
The owner of the company is Terry Lacoste. I signed a contract back on 7/3/15 for a shingle re-roof. Upon signing the contract they took $1,500. Shortly after they came to my home and removed the shingles and applied the underlayment. This is supposed to be a water barrier as well. They took another $3,000 at the time of installing the underlayment. Well, as of today (almost 3 months later) I still have no roof installed. I contacted the owner after a month of no roof. I informed him that I'd been patiently waiting for a roof. He responded with " I thought your roof was completed and I will handle this." I informed him he needed to schedule an inspection. He scheduled an inspection for that following Monday. The inspector failed the job due to no drip edge installed and no valid Workers Comp. Insurance. I informed him of this and he sent his crew the following day to install the drip edge. As for the Workers Comp. Insurance I was told he did not file pay roll and was unable to get this certificate until he does so. Today, 2 weeks later still no word on getting this certificate that he needs in order to pick up the permit with the City of Oldsmar. The permit has been sitting there for 2 weeks now Terry was told they will not give him the permit to continue the job until he provides the Worker Comp. certificate. In the middle of this long process I received dry wall damages due to leaks. I informed Terry of this and he hired someone to fix the repairs. Shortly after I found another leak and informed him that this needed to get fixed asap. No response from him or his co-workers. I then threatened to cancel the job but after speaking with lawyers and other roofing companies; I was told not to or else he will keep the $4,500 that he's already received. This is due to the way he worded his contract. I'm basically locked in with this company. I let Terry know that I would like him to continue the job asap. No response. It would be greatly appreciated if you could contact him to get this job done. His new location is at 1535 S Missouri Clearwater, FL. The owners phone number is 727-424-1476.

Terry Lacoste illegally uses my pristine company's name
#2REBUTTAL Owner of company

Terry Lacoste worked with Weathertight Systems back in 2010. He left the company and decided to use our name and logo and continue his fraudulent business on the west coast of Florida. If you look up my company on Sunbiz.irg, you will see no affiliation with him and us. We are strictly a Commercial Spray Foam Roofing company. We do not do shingles or residential projects. I get 3 calls a month from people who have been scammed by this guy. I've had Osha contact me as well. I've have to prove through numerous ceast and desist orders our attorney has sent, that terry Lacoste is NOT weathertight Systems. I've complained to the DBPR but they have no recourse in taking his license away. I'm sorry for your situation. But Weathertight Systems did not do this to you. Terry Lacoste did.
