ALL HIS REVIEWS ON OTHER SITES ARE "ALLOWED BY HIM" he removes the ones he doesn't like.... He has been banned from Thumbtack for not resolving issues with clients Arthur demanded that, before having two unidentified workers fix his mistakes, I must remove my statements that report the facts of how Allied Floor Systems LLC has troubled our family. I sent this email to Arthur on Sunday February 8th as a final attempt to resolve the neglect of service displayed by his business. So far, he has not replied or resolved this. "Arthur Gonzalez, Unfortunately, as previously stated, other contractors have confirmed that the only way to guarantee that the peeling issue wont continue is to remove all the products from the floor. In addition, you used products that I requested you not use, and you have admitted that the manufacturer told you that the product you used has problems; "the more coats you apply the more defects show, and weakness occurs in bonding." These characteristics are exactly why I insisted you do not use the product on my floor. You are also to blame for other issues of damage on this project. Why should I be paying for products I didn't even want in the first place? You have expressed interest in purchasing equipment from my father; yet insist that you cannot afford to refund me the amount you were paid. I don't understand why you agree to things (fixing the floor, returning some of our money) and then change your requirements for taking responsibility for your own mistakes. For this reason, we cannot trust you enough to risk having some strangers come into our home and potentially cause more damage. There has already been more damage left unaddressed than you told us there would be when we hired you. If you are going to stay true to your guarantee and fix the issues left on the floor, we need to make sure we have all the essential project documents in our possession before you (or anyone else representing your business) can be allowed to return to the job site. Documents Required: Updated Quotation, (floor total must equal the pricing on original quote.) Copies of both receipts for our payments to you, Warranty document that states you have guaranteed our satisfaction, are responsible for the work performed, please sign and date the warranty document. Formal Invoice If you plan on having anyone else come into our home to fix the floor, we will require valid ID before they enter. Otherwise, give us the refund for the floor in cash (On your original quote, you have the floor priced at more than what I'm requiring on my refund.) I will sign a document releasing you from the responsibility of any further repairs or refunds. You will also have to sign a document that releases us from any further required payments. Then, and only then, the issue will be resolved. If I do not receive the documents, and have a date when you are going to fix the damage, OR receive my refund before Wednesday February 11, 2015 at 5PM, I will proceed with continuing to communicate my disappointment with your business, and will not allow you (or anyone representing your business) to return to our home. I am being fair in saying that I will have to hire someone else to fix the issues you left on the job site. The money I intended to spend with you should be spent with someone who will actually deliver a beneficial service. It is disappointing how things have turned out between us. We have given you plenty of opportunities to make this right. Please, respect the fact that our patience has run out. You told us this was a 3-4 day job, and it has been almost five weeks. We took you by your word, and your actions have revealed several times that your word cannot be trusted. Unfortunately, you "meaning well" doesn't imply you are telling the truth, or taking responsibility for your own pledge to deliver satisfaction. I appreciate your dedication to resolve this issue, D" We have been in communication with Artie in regards to this project for two months now, and I'm sorry to say that we are worse off than when we started this project. At this point he cannot resolve his own issues so he has resorted to threats to hire an attorney. _____________________________________________________ This could have been a great opportunity for a great review but... we were not satisfied with the work performed, products used, service provided, customer service, lack of legal documents provided. read more

Arthur removes his negative reviews from the sites that advertise for him. He owes me a refund for my failed floor. Out Of Business? As far as we can tell Artie has closed his business. He has not been returning our calls and has left us with a floor that other contractors have confirmed needs to be redone. He has posted pictures on his website of our floor, but doesn't respond to our concerns of damage, or weakness of bonding on the floor. Unfortunately, we gave him five times the amount of time to finish the job and it was still not finished correctly. We regret the time and money we spent with this business, and warn anyone who is considering working with him to protect themselves as much as possible. (If his business is still open...) 1. DO NOT hire him if he requires ANY MONEY before starting the job. (Artie requests 40% up front) Reputable contractors that have been in business (for as long as Artie says he has) invest in their own projects. If your contractor is not willing to invest in their own business and be prepared to fix potential mistakes, then why should you? And always allow time after the project is done to see how you like it and how it performs BEFORE PAYMENT. Standard Payment Terms are Net 30-Net 90. Which means that you do not pay any money until you have received a formal INVOICE, at that time you have 30 or 90 days to pay the contractor (if the terms of the contract were fulfilled.) If the terms of your contract were not fulfilled (like in my case), then you are not responsible to pay anything until the contractor addresses your concerns and makes any necessary adjustments to your invoice. 2. ALWAYS talk to another contractor before hiring ARTIE. Usually the one who can show the most experience and has terms that are the least risk for the client is the safest bet. This allows the confidence and trust of the client to be in a comfortable place. 3. RESEARCH the products and processes that your contractor uses. If he is not willing to discuss these, or changes his approach in the middle of the project without clearing it with you first, this shows a lack of cummunication. I have experience with this with Artie, I was clear with him on the products I required to be used on my floor. He took it upon himself to use lower quality products that weren't even close to what I described to him. His process at one point of the project almost guaranteed that the floor would fail. A week later after minimal traffic the floor failed. Now I'm left without the customer service, or guarantee that was represented to me by Artie upon the sale. So I guess when the going gets tough, Artie disappears! 4. MAKE SURE YOU REVIEW AND REQUIRE CONTRACTS, BUSINESS LICENSE, and INSURANCE INFORMATION: If your contractor doesn't come prepared to provide these documents for you, he or she is wasting your time. Also, it shows that whenever possible, shortcuts are taken. You work hard to earn your money, and your contractor should be expected to do the same. 5. In Artie's Case, You Should also require some sort of Warranty Document as well. Make sure that it includes all the important information about your project. So, basically projects such as these should be approached as high risk investments when working with Artie. And in this case he has proven that the Risk far out weighs the Rewards of placing your trust in someone who is known to practice very unstable Business Ethics. You will also be able to read more reviews from me and receive updates on all the other websites that he advertises on. ANGIES LIST, HOME ADVISOR, BBB, YELP, and whichever other ones I can find. Or, Contact me personally (303)twofivezero7419. (this goes for you too, Artie) read more

Allied floor systems came highly recommended to me and I'm so happy with the results. Artie and his crew did such a great job. They were very detailed oriented. They completely transformed our floor. We did not expect that it would look as good as it does given the current condition that our concrete was in.I will definitely will be using them for future projects. read more
