We decided to book Alpine Electric to rewire our house panel, up our garage power and run wiring…read morefor a hot tub. The original quote was $2400. Our appointment was booked for July 18 and was scheduled to take 12 hours, so I took the day off work, assuming that they would send two electricians as they never booked for a second day. The electrician showed us and before he even set foot in the house he told me that he didn't know what he was supposed to be doing and that he was given the job just a half hour before. He also told me that because the work was going to take 10 hours that he would need to come back another day. I told him that I needed this work completed. Because of the wiring we had to dig trenches in our backyard and had a landscaping company bringing a mini backhoe in the next day to fill in the tranches and level the backyard. I asked him to call his office and clarify what he was supposed to be doing and to ask if they had a second person to come help him. He kept asking me specifics of the job and because I'm not an electrician/handyman, I called my husband and asked him to come home to deal with this. He came home and ended up chatting with the electrician and we learned that the estimator had drawn up the quote based off of completely inaccurate information. We called the estimator and he said that he messed up really bad and that our quote was going to easily double, but that because it was their mistake that they were going to cover it. He let us know that he was in the area and would be headed to our house to talk with us right away. An hour and a half later, he shows up, goes right downstairs to where the other electrician is working, talks to him for 5 minutes and goes to leave. I ran outside and asked him if he was intending to talk to us like he said he would. He said to me "I'm not having a good day, today didn't turn out how I planned. I need more time to figure things out, I'll call you guys later tonight". We ended up calling him at 9:30 when we didn't hear back. He told us he would need another day to get things together. We didn't hear back from him for the rest of the weekend. We ended up calling him on Monday evening when we still hadn't heard back from him, and he told us that our new quote was going to be $3475. We asked him about when he told us that they were going to cover the cost and he said that he couldn't do that because he wasn't going to be able to pay him rent and he would lose his job. He also told us that we would have to pay Enmax to come ($450). He asked us to call Enmax to book the service. With the limited information that he gave us, we called Enmax and they told us that we didn't need to get that service. We called the estimator back and he gave us completely different information about what Enmax was supposed to be doing. I called Alpine's office and explained to the lady that answered that we were having difficulty with the estimator and she offered to have another man put on the job. We rebooked with them for July 25th and were told that it was safe to rebook our landscapers for the next day because they could guarantee they would be done. While negotiating the final cost with the lady on the phone, I let her know that I wanted Alpine to cover the cost of Enmax (which they agreed) and that I would pay the deposit (50%) but wanted to withhold final payment until I had a chance to talk with the owner of the company. This really made the lady mad, and she told me that she looked me up on Facebook and she knows what I do for a living and that I should be good to pay the bill. I also found out later that she recorded our conversation without my consent or knowledge. July 25th comes along and the electricians show up and tell us that they will need to have Monday and Tuesday the following week to complete the work. I told them that that wouldn't work because we rebooked our landscapers to come in on the 26th. The one guy said "We can pack up and leave right now if that's what you want" I told them to continue because we didn't have any other option. I cancelled the landscaping company who were not interested in working with us anymore as we had cancelled on them twice at the last minute because of Alpine. Tuesday afternoon, Alpine calls and tells me that they will need the house again on Wednesday, I told the guy that I wasn't happy about it but if that's how it had to be. He said "I don't know why you care; at least it's going to be done" As for the work itself, the electricians left garbage behind when they left, used my tenants bed as a workbench without any tarps, spilt a drink on his pillows and didn't mention it, folded back our shingles on our roof, exposing the underlay, without pushing back, and left holes in the filling that they used to fill the holes in the side of our house. I did talk with the owner and he was apologetic and gave 10 % off

Think of this place as a fancy-fancy furniture store. Honestly, I was literally blown away by how…read morenice the furniture and accessories are in this place. Everything was so nice, in fact, I felt like I didn't belong. After spending a couple minutes in the store Iknew everything was way too expensive for me, but I couldn't stop looking around. It was all such intriguing merchandise that I spent way more time than necessary looking around at everything. They've got such a unique selection of products in the store like old grandfather clocks, authentic bird cages, and even old school snow shoes. They've got some paintings for sale, most depicting an older, western scene. You can buy couches, beds, dressers, tables, chairs, blankets, pretty much anything you can think of. You have to special order everything, but you get to pick your stain colour and fabrics as well. I think it's cool that you can kind of custom make your own furniture. The lady working there (perhaps the owner?) was really friendly and eager to offer a hand or answer any questions. She directed me to their website, saying that all their products were online. The funny thing is, you can't order anything from the website, only view what they have. It's a high-priced store, but the goods are all so beautiful! I enjoyed just browsing around at all the neat and interesting things they had in this store. It was really neat!

Worst experience I have ever experienced. We spent over $30,000 buying a kitchen table and six…read morechairs, a couch, a love seat, two living room chairs, a coffee table and rug. At the time Victoria was our designer and salesperson. She was absolutely terrible. Her designer ideas were horrible. She could not seem to work with our current wall colour and curtains. She actually said at one point "it doesn't matter what colour the rug is as no one sees it in the room". In the end, I picked all the colours myself. Not only was the designer service terrible but the quality of furniture was not great. We had to return the two living room chairs as the material on them arrived wrinkled on all the arms. I called the store shortly after the furniture was delivered and no one returned my call even though we had been dealing with the store for months. We I finally received a call back and I was told to send an email to a general customer service email. This is not the type of service I expected to receive from an independent, local furniture store. If I wanted this type service I would have gone to a big brand named furniture store. The kitchen table also warped and we had to exchange it. The second one warped too and when we called to express our concern, we were told that solid wood warps in Calgary and we should learn to live with it. It really is unfortunate, when I first walked into the store I had such high hopes. I will never shop there again nor would I recommend it. The customer service is terrible as the quality for the price you pay is not great!

Surprisingly it's a big store and they have various sections like white Christmas, sports theme, superhero theme and many more to choose from. There is so much to explore, very colourful and vibrant store, we spent like an hour inside. Even our 7 month old baby loved it, she was just looking around with sparkle in her eyes. We bought few ornaments from there, can't wait to hang them on our Christmas tree this year.
