Their warranty seems excellent and is backed by Sherwin Williams, I will definitely be recommending them to everyone who may be in the need for metal roofing supply

Don't be fooled by the smiles and assurances! They didn't have enough of the flooring we ordered so…read morethey gave us flooring that another customer returned. It wasn't until the flooring was 3/4 installed that we realized that we were shorted, after sorting through all the damaged product that we were assured was inspected before it was given to us. They did order (more but they refused to deliver) and that's when we realized that the packaging was different. They had repackaged damaged flooring to make it look "new" and it was damaged and misprinted. The new packaged material was so much better that the rest of out floor looks bad. Calls were ignored and customer service wasn't any better. Promises to look into the matter resulted in dropped correspondence. Finally we were offered a store credit for a pittance of what we paid. The floor looks bad, poor quality of materials, unethical practices of selling used as new and not making good on their promises. Save your money. Shop elsewhere. If you have a problem you'll be left doing what we are doing.

Regina Santore - Wallace Real Estate

We have loved working with Regina! We are out-of-towners and we could only come out to Knoxville…read morefor a weekend, but Regina was up for the challenge. She worked with us to find out what we needed and got us started on the FlexMLS website so we could browse listings to our heart's content. Through the whole process, Regina has been exceptionally responsive even outside business hours. When we came to Knoxville, Regina worked hard to get us acquainted with the town and all its various neighborhoods. Visiting houses with Regina is like getting a crash intro course in home maintenance! She displayed extensive knowledge about house construction, upkeep, and local hazards. She was also very flexible, allowing us to adjust our schedule when an exciting new property appeared on the market during our visit. This was extremely helpful as it ended up being the perfect house for us! Once we decided to make an offer, she immediately got in touch with the listing agent to put our offer "on paper". By continuing to work into the evening, she got us a positive response on our offer before midnight of the day we toured the house. Yes - in 2 days, Regina not only took us to more than 10 houses and gave us a full tour of Knoxville, she also got our offer in on a house we loved. Since our visit, Regina has continued to be very communicative. She gave us a calendar of the important dates for closing and is in touch with the listing agent, so every milestone so far has been met well before its deadline. We haven't closed on the house yet, so I will update once that's settled. But as of this process so far, Regina has been an amazing buyer's advocate, willing to go way above and beyond to accommodate out-of-town buyers and get them the perfect home. We can't recommend - or thank - her enough.

We had the best experience with Regina in buying and selling our home. We originally moved to…read moreKnoxville in 2015 and considered buying our first home. She came recommended from a friend and really opened our eyes to the things we should look for when house hunting. She literally got down into crawl spaces and pointed out anything she thought was concerning: cracks in foundation, subpar building materials, roofing, mold, water damage, gutters, basements, things we would have never thought to consider. We never felt pressured to buy even though we looked at 20+ houses with her over several days. If she felt the house wasn't right for us, she let us know why instead of pushing us to put in offers. We decided to wait and make sure we planned on staying in Knoxville before buying. She made sure we knew she would be there to help us when we decided we were ready. In 2018 we knew we were ready to buy, and Regina was ready to go with another round of house showings. She gave us the same attention and consideration as the first time around. We thought we found our dream house and were ready to put in an offer. Thankfully, with her attention to detail she urged us to hold off and check it out after a rainstorm. We took her advice and when we went back noticed serious issues with water in the basement. With her guidance, we finally found the perfect home. She helped negotiate a good price as well as navigate all the confusing parts of purchasing it. When Knoxville got record breaking rain in 2019, we were so thankful Regina had helped us choose a solid house that avoided the flooding many of our neighbors and friends experienced. This year, my husband received a job offer out of state we couldn't pass up and had to move quickly. We hated to leave our home, but we knew Regina would help us sell it. Her expertise came full circle when the value of our home appreciated and sold very quickly. We attribute this to Regina's knowledge and guidance when we originally bought the house. Regina has set the bar very high for us when it comes to realtors, and I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell their home. She is honest, thorough, organized, and professional. Most importantly, she is on her client's side through the whole process. Regina knows her stuff!

We had previously ordered from another granite/quartz countertop company for our newly-built home in Sweetwater, TN. We later found out that the Owner could not fulfill his order with us due to a medical situation in his family. We googled and found another countertop company - Staley Marble & Granite. We were living in Colorado at the time and couldn't fly out to see their inventory. They face-timed with us and walked us thru what they had. They were very helpful throughout the whole process. Their price for the quartz and granite countertops (kitchen, bathrooms) was even better than the previous company. They installed the countertops and they looked beautiful! A month later, we had a little coconut oil ring from a bottle left out overnight on a bathroom counter. They had one of their guys come out and take the ring out and reseal the counter - no extra cost! Staley Marble & Granite have great prices and service! I highly recommend them!

About two weeks after it was installed, we had a huge storm and suddenly our new fence was leaning. It was evident that they didn't use enough cement in the post holes. I called to have them come back and add more cement to the holes, and they've just finished up. Hopefully it will be enough to actually keep the fence upright. When we were having the estimate done, I mentioned that in the particular area where we live, we get a LOT of very strong winds during storms, which was why I chose a shadowbox pattern to allow for airflow. I would've thought that some note of this would be added so they would make sure to build it as sturdy as possible. When I spoke with the crew today, the man just kept blaming it on the wind. No, I paid to have a fence put up that would withstand the wind. Anyway, while I love the fence, I am not happy that it wasn't installed with excellence. One other thing to be aware of is that communication with the company is not great. Whenever I called, usually no one followed up and I had to call back. The crew also will not call or text when on their way, so don't expect that. I am still very happy with the look of the fence and hope that it will be more sturdy now.
