Called this company on the recommendation of my neighbor. I can see some others are having good experiences, but that was not the case for me this company was so unresponsive it left me wondering how they do business at all. Firstly, at no point in time was I able to reach anyone by telephone. Their website states they may be working from home due to Covid, which is fine.
But email was almost no better. Here s what happened, in sequence:
June 1st sent email with pictures of intended project, requesting a site visit and quote. I provided my phone number.
June 3rd company responded via email with rough pricing, and requested my address and phone number. I responded the same day with the info they requested.
June 11th they finally respond and suggest a site visit on June 17th.
June 17th - A lone gentleman showed up on that date and was friendly and professional. I awaited the subsequent estimate.
June 29th Heard nothing back since the site visit. I finally wrote them back on this day, telling them I was still awaiting their follow up from their visit on the 17th.
They remained completely unresponsive, including to calls.
On July 8th, I wrote again advising them if they didn t respond within a week, I would presume they didn t want the business. They responded the same day apologizing, apparently confused as to why they hadn t sent me the estimate. They followed up again that day to let me know they were awaiting one final piece for the complete estimate.
July 10th - I received the estimate. There was one point in there I was confused about, and one component of pricing I was wanting was missing. I emailed back the same day requesting someone call me to discuss the estimate.
Unfortunately, that was the last I heard from them.
I guess I m one of the only ones having this experience for some reason, but if I m having this kind of difficulty prior to the sale, I m not wanting to find out how they would (not) respond in the event I had a problem with the work or product. I understand if staff is short and demand is high, but this was excessive and quite frankly, a waste of my time.
