* LONG POST ALERT*
My Husband and I bought our first home in April. The original owner of the home was wheelchair bound and requested that the Master Bathroom shower be built with no shower enclosure to allow easier accessibility. For whatever reason, the original owner never moved into the home. After having our home inspected, we were told that the slope of the shower was not deep enough to use without an enclosure and the water would likely run on to the floor. So, we made the decision to add a shower enclosure with a door. Unfortunately, I made the mistake of trusting Renfroe Glass to install the shower enclosure. I reached out to Joey Renfro and explained why I wanted/needed a shower enclosure. He came out to my home to do measurements and gave me a quote for installation. I paid for his services, and the shower enclosure was installed at the beginning of May. Honestly, we loved the aesthetics of the shower enclosure. It looked beautiful. Unfortunately, the 1st time the shower was used, it flooded the entire bathroom. Water was coming from the base of the shower door. I reached out to Joey and was told that he would come out to take a look at the shower. Joey did not come but sent one of his employees out to examine the leak. Some additional materials were added to the shower door, but it continued to leak. Between May and July, Joey sent his employees out to several times to fix the leak to no avail. Now, throughout all of this I've been nothing but nice and patient with Joey. After multiple attempts the fix the leak, Joey himself came out to my home and promised me that he would fix my shower. First of all, Joey brought a gun into my home without my permission. When my husband asked about the gun, Joey explained that he was threaten with a gun by a previous customer (hmm... I wonder why). After testing the shower, the next day, it was still leaking. So, I kindly reached out to Joey and asked for a refund. I was told that he would call me later to discuss the issue. Joey never called me but, like a coward, had one of his employees call to explain that "Joey says" that I have a tile and drain issue that needs to be fixed and the leaking from the shower had nothing to do with the shower enclosure. Joey does not have the qualifications to make these assumptions. After I asked for a refund, Joey blocked my number from calling or texting him. I basically had to stalk Joey just to have a conversation with him. I called and went to his office multiple times and left multiple messages he NEVER returned my calls. By the last time I went to office looking for him, I was beyond livid! I had to ask his employee to call from her phone just so I could speak with him. I was not nice at all by this point and demanded a refund. I called the office the next day to inquire about my refund. Again, I was told that I would not be getting a refund, and I could just take him to court. Say less Sir! I immediately went to small claims to court and filed a claim. We have been in our home since May, and we still have not been able to use our shower. See, Joey thought he was going to just take my money and leave me high and dry. Right idea, but the wrong person. I've reached out to several shower glass installation companies in town, and allegedly, they have had to fix many of Joey's mistakes. One company came out and was immediately able to point out several things that were wrong with the enclosure. For example, the shower door should have been place on the opposite side of the enclosure. Fast forward to the end of September, which is when we went to court. Guess who the Judge sided with!! Not only did I get my refund, but he also has to pay my court cost as well. This could have been completely avoided if he wasn't trying to get over on me. Please take my advice, DO NOT GO TO RENFRO GLASS!! Check the comments for videos and pictures.
P.S.- If you are a fan Renfro Glass, that's your prerogative, but don't come for me! read more
