Unprepared, unpleasant, reluctant to do anything for customers. NEVER installed the product which I paid for way back in August.
After flood damage, my condo was restored by Mark 1 beautifully. I regret that I took Home Depot's promotion for carpet installation instead of Mark 1 affiliated contractor.
I have informed US Installation Group Office that I have a piano with wheels a few times, to which they assured me, "no problem".
I also provided temporary parking information for my condo docking area, strongly asking them to contact the condo office several times.
It turned out that the installers even did not have the telephone number of the office, NOR my cell number.
Numerous "confirmation" emails, calls from the office received, while the installers themselves were not equipped at all.
Nightmare 1: Last week 9/20/17, three healthy males arrived. They even never greeted me, but all complains. "No parking" for their car (I proposed a few places for parking, offered them that I would pay), no place to cut carpet (they wanted to cut the carpet at the parking area), then blamed on my having a grand piano.
I even pushed a cart with full of their tools to my unit for reluctant people, while there was no word of appreciation.
They were constantly talking on their mobile, and abruptly packed up and left without any explanation. I tried hard to let them install, they said, "we have 3 more jobs, no time".
Immediately complained to the company, rescheduled to 9/29/17. The company promised to "prepare" better. I demanded them to send different people.
Nightmare 2: 9/29/17, it was like a movie "a ground hog day". The same people, saw the piano, began to complain.
"Your place is small, no space and piano. You do not understand, I cannot stretch carpet."
Then, "Why do you have piano?" As if it is a sin to own an instrument.
I told them that the last installers have shifted bookcases with full of books, CD racks, etc. let alone lifting the piano while pushing carpet underneath.
Now, due to the flood, almost everything was packed in boxes, placed in closet or kitchen and bathroom, meaning the workload for these installers WAS indeed significantly less.
Nevertheless, they refused to do the work, because of the piano - indeed it is due to their limitation of installation technique or flexibility in thinking.
"Home Depot said no touch piano. If touch, if something happens, people call and problems."
What did they prepared for me?
No greeting, No apology, No appreciation.
I called Home Depot to explain everything, received a full refund.
The agent at Home Depot stated, "Oh, lord, I am sorry, I cannot speak for them. I understand."
They did not come with a contractor's truck with company's logo, but a van with a name of Church. I hope they have license to operate.
The worst experience.
These installers only would willingly install carpet to empty houses, rooms. read more
