Bay Area Roofing and Painting

HORRIBLE service. Con-​man contractor. Do NOT use this guy.
Short version of the story that still pisses me off: After getting estimates, I agreed to let him come over and check out why my roof was leaking. The agreed upon time was 3pm, after I got off work. So imagine my surprise when I showed up at 2:45 and two guys were already on my roof!
He was sealing some of the roof vents, which conveniently enough weren’t even the CAUSE of the roof leak. He wanted over $ 600 for work that I didn’t authorize and wasn’t even the reason for the call/​estimate.
He did repair a missing shingle, the REAL cause of the leak, in a quick 20 minutes. Still demanded thte $ 600! A contractor friend of mine checked the roof afterwards and the repair guy had only put small black tar around the bases of the vents. Not exactly worth 600 bucks! But I still paid him, just to get him to leave.
What’s worse (are you ready for this?) the man decides to SUE ME for defamation of character after I asked the Better Business Bureau to check out the situation. He actually thought he would get $ 5k for my telling people was a sh*thead he is??? His case was dismissed!
