Buzz Home Pro's

I can’t say enough great things about John Garelli and the team at Buzz Home Pros! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. They recently completed both my roof and siding, and the transformation is incredible—my home looks brand new! John was responsive, honest, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything, gave me a fair and transparent estimate, and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. His crew was professional, respectful of my property, and incredibly efficient—everything was done on time and cleaned up beautifully. The quality of the work speaks for itself. The attention to detail and craftsmanship are outstanding. I’ve had several neighbors stop to compliment the new look, and I feel proud every time I pull into the driveway. If you’re looking for a company that delivers great work, fair pricing, and excellent customer service, I highly recommend Buzz Home Pros and John Garelli. They went above and

abandoned after 3 days. James Hardie has not yet responded to my report about this shoddy installation. Consider different siding, different installer Crew left a mess - multiple gaps in the deck where they'd ripped boards off, cracking some in the process. About 1/3 remains un-sided, Crew installed house-wrap so poorly in some areas that it came loose and we had 20ft long streamers of loose house-wrap ripping about in the wind. James Hardie standards say staples at least every 24 inches (maybe they meant 24 feet??? 𠤡 Th crew installed new house-wrap on top of old, everyprofessional siding contractor that's quoted to clean up this mess says that's a red flag. The siding they did install is wavy , butt-joints not nailed down, poor finish on most corners & trim. Professionals arrive soon to clean up after GRSW aka Buzz. Crew did significant damage to window frames where siding was removed with brute-force. Bailed out leaving a pile of light fittings, screws, nails, exposed light and power sockets. Gutter downspouts left lying in the ground.,.long runs of un-caulked joints at the roofline On the way out, one of the crew crashed into a brick planter and damaged it badly. The whole crew laughed while shoddily trying to fix it (we had to do it ourselves) Get a fully detailed quote. EVERYTHING in writing.

Recommend that at invoice time you Google this "770 ILCS 60/5", and see what you have to do to protect yourself from subcontractor liens (can be filed 2 years later - homeowner is liable and can be sued. Lastly, look at all their reviews, not just the latest ones

JUST BE HOME WHEN THEY ARE WORKING ON THE PROJECT SO YOU'LL BE THERE TO DIRECT THE WORKERS.. THE WORKERS ARE GREAT!

Do not use this company. Extremely poor quality and craftsmanship. The salesperson seems great, but once the job starts you will regret your decision. Buckling and bubbling fascia, gutters without all required pieces, lifting flashing, and trim that was mangled before installation. The company uses subpar subcontractors to complete its work.

Always kept us informed about when the job would be done. They answered all our questions promptly and follow up was done on a timely basis. Would definitely hire them again. They also did our siding and did a great job.

They were great from start to finish. They always answered their phone and would show up when they said they would. Price was comparable to other quotes I got. Work was excellent.

Crew was phenomenal. Polite, friendly and expert craftsmanship John (salesman) was willing to show us computer image of the job for those of us who have trouble envisioning in our own head and quick to give suggestions if your plans would not look good. We trusted him to help us with color schemes and he nailed it. Henry (coordinator in the office) was very attentive and understanding (and patient) with peon questions from us. Receptionist as well who answered the phone was very polite - all in all, the company is first class. My only regret is that we wonâ t have to deal with residing for another 25 years and give them return business. Very thankful to have the best looking house in the neighborhood (and Iâ m not just saying that because I own it!!!! Haha)

Friendly, no pressure and prompt response from Sales. The crew who replaced garage siding, door, etc was professional, clean, friendly. Clean up was thorough, the garage looks fantastic and they were able to complete the job in less than 3 days. I am very pleased and will hire them for additional projects.

We hired Buzz for hardie siding and gutters. Started out well. We had a few hiccups in our addition process and had to push off the final portion of our work with Buzz - the gutters. Painting needed to be done in the same area and the weather turned too cold to properly paint. The weather warmed up and the painting was able to be finished. I contacted Buzz in February who initially said they would be by to go over what was left to do on our contract. But no one ever came or contacted us. Once pandemic hit we could not get them to even answer a call. Finally got John Garelli on the phone. He said they were not working during pandemic. Odd to me - not only are they considered a necessary service, their work would fully be outside with no physical contact. But ok. Then months later I see Facebook posts from them touting how they are indeed working. I called and called. Finally got in touch and they said they were no longer interested in finishing our job despite our contract. Rain would pour into any open window if we did not catch it quick enough and ruin new hardwood floors since we had no gutters. Glad it took 3 months to get an email from you starting and I gave my guys the options to work and most of them declined.
