He was accommodating with my schedule and showed up on time- actually early! We talked, he shared the history of the company (30 yrs in business, I remember correctly) and reviewed what we were hoping to replace- he showed me what Shading Solutions could do- measured, twice, and we were on our way. The date he told me to anticipate our awnings should be delivered and one week before, contacted me to say we are on schedule! The awnings were delivered and we set a date for installation. The day before, Kurt Lamothe, the installer, came to look at the awnings and to check out the job site, impressive! Not waiting for 'day of ' - being proactive shows professionalism ~ so appreciated in this day! The installers show up, again, professional and friendly and EARLY! Again, I was impressed because as they're installing, Joe, my sales guy, shows up just to make sure all is going well and that I was satisfied. He even texted me after to say there is a windy storm rolling in so make sure to roll up the awnings as they were just installed. The guys picked up all the wrappings and left not one piece behind. Oh- and the price was fair, no hard sell or upsell. Will post pics later ~ but we are VERY satisfied to find a company and people who are professional and are great at their jobs! Thanks Joe, Kurt, Kurt Jr and Cliff (?) I apologize if I got the name wrong!

I ended up scheduling the installation just before Christmas, thanks to an unusually warm winter. The entire process was smooth and efficient: I chose the finish, got on the schedule (they were booked about a month out), and waited for installation day. On the day of the install, the team worked quickly and professionally. I was able to work from home without any disruption -- they were that unobtrusive. The only minor downside was the smell from the chemicals, which is expected with epoxy but worth noting. I worked next to the garage, and the smell was intense. Now, over seven months later, I couldn't be happier. The floors still look great, are easy to clean, and most importantly, they're not slippery at all. I would absolutely recommend Windy City Coating to family and friends.

The price was right within my budget, and there were no unexpected surprises! The owner (John) is very involved in the process, and when the builders start the job, they don't play around!

The quote he gave me may be fair but I guess this is what they mean when they say you get what you pay for! Please consider this went hiring them.

He informed me his business had a 20-year warranty. And they would proactively check in on the work for the following years to come and I felt I could trust him. My mistake. They came in and added a layer of concrete to about 750 sq feet of space. The work is so terrible I will need to now repair the damage he has caused. Which will cost more than what the original issue was. We lost so much money on this and clearly, he has no intention of repairing the damage.

I will further update my review when the promises we agreed to have come through. I definitely commend the business for the prompt follow through. Can I give less than 1 star please! I purchased two different types of tarps from this business and on neither one was I notified after I waited my full order picking and shipment time that the items were in fact on back order and would not be available for another MONTH! They had no plans to notify me or reimburse our company OR give me options to make a different decision; all the while my company is losing $1000s waiting for tarps to arrive so we can do our work. There were no managers or supervisors available to speak with, the voicemail was full and the customer service agent I spoke with was not helpful or accommodating. The owner was off galavanting around on a "business" trip and I was given a generic email address as the only way to contact him for resolution. The money for the order was taken our of our bank account in seconds but I was told it may be a "few" days before it is returned.

I purchased what was advertised as a heavy duty, fire retardant, waterproof tarp that was 40x40 feet from Tarp Supply Inc for $1,500 and $400 delivery. Upon delivery, I noticed how tiny the rivets were for this size tarp, they must have been smaller than a quarter. As soon as the tarp was tied down, a small breeze picked up and suddenly multiple rivets in the tarp ripped right out of the plastic material, the causing us to have to remove the tarp altogether after just securing it down. I contacted Brad in customer support who I initially offered repair or reinforcement options and asked me to send photos. After sending him photos of the damage, I received this response... "I spoke with our manager about this issue. They told me that since the 40' x 40' tarp was used and damaged, we cannot accept that tarp back for return." I asked to speak to speak to someone about this further and was ignored. This was a very expensive purchase for me that I spent a long time saving up money for. Not only am I out now out the $1,500 I spent on the 40x40' tarp, but also the $400 I spent in delivery, almost $200 in labor, $400 for delivery to return the broken tarp and the second 30x30' tarp, and 20% of the purchase price from the return for a "restocking fee." Thanks Tarp Supply for nearly bankrupting me this month and not offering any solutions! Maybe consider emailing me back and refunding me for YOUR faulty product.
