If you're looking for a professional window company - keep looking. Searched for a window company. Someone shared these folks with me. They were the cheapest estimate so I went with them. Well... that was the first mistake. After meeting Tom and getting the estimate -it started tumbling down hill. I was told I would get my windows ready to schedule installation in 2-3 weeks. 3 weeks and no call. I tried to call Tom a number of times without a call back. I finally emailed him and mentioned that I haven't heard from him and wanting to get my windows installed before the weather turned. It wasn't until the email I sent, that I received a call. He went on to tell me that it would take another 2 weeks. Of course no call after 2 weeks- so I call to follow up. He said he'd check on the windows and get back to me. He calls me a day or so later and says - "yes they're here, let me get a hold of the installers and get it scheduled next week". I told him any day next week would be fine. A week went by- no call. After leaving Tom and email and messages, I finally called the office. They said they would get a hold of him and have him call me ASAP. That day Tom called and said he's been sick and forgot to call me. Ugh!
The installers showed up without Tom. So I had to tell them what windows needed to be replaced.
Once the windows were in- I noticed the privacy frosting was missing on 2 windows. Really? Of course the installers knew nothing about it. I immediately, emailed Tom. He responded the next day, but frankly I was exhausted from trying to manage this whole thing so I told him to forget about it and just remove it from my bill.
Fast forward- I get a call from a snarky woman wondering where the final payment is. I told her that I got her VM right before Thanksgiving and was planning to call them and drop today ( now that my visiting family has left) She threatened me with collections and the whole nine yards. I told her that she shouldn't worry that they will get their check. She said " oh I'm not worried about it" and hung up on me.
Wow! My husband and I are commercial real estate
professionals and where shocked. We own and manage many properties and work with contractors and trades every day. This ranks up to the worst managed companies we will never work with again.
Run and don't walk away from these folks! It's not worth saving the few extra dollars. Spend it on a company that knows what they're doing.
On a side note, the folks that recommended this company to me, was the home above me. When their installers, installed their windows they had the brilliant idea of placing the old windows directly on top of my rose bushes in the front of the building. When I yelled up to the installers, they just looked at me and each other and took their time to get the windows of my roses. No apologies - no nothing. They're carelessness was unbelievable! As if that wasn't enough, they were absolute chain smokers. When they left the job the sidewalk and street was littered with their nasty cigarette butts. Unbelievable! read more
