Second, the sales staff entered incorrect information for the granite and carpet orders. Bud in the granite counter sales department did not order the correct edge for the granite countertop. When the installer arrived for measurements, he asked me to confirm the edge on the order. It was incorrect. Any mistake in the ordering process delays installation. I was on a tight timeframe for the remodel so even one day lost threw off the rest of contractors and jobs on site. What was worse is that I had to go back out to the store to correct Home Depot's order only to be told that the manager who could change an order was not available. After three calls to the store and an average of 12-13 minutes on hold during each instance, the "manager" called me back. It turns out he was not the manager but another sales associate. That is, the woman in the kitchen department could have assisted me in the store when I was there but instead sloughed off the responsibility to a colleague and lied to boot. Third, Home Depot advertises job completion timelines that their vendors do not meet. One of the reasons we chose Home Depot was the installation guarantee of 10 business days for countertops. The deadline was met. The granite installation went well but not on schedule. Fourth, the experience and quality of the carpeting installation fell below expectations. When I called to schedule the carpeting installation, the woman at the call center had been sent incorrect information -- the sales associate in carpeting at Home Depot ordered a higher cost padding and did not inform me that the carpet I had chosen was a special order carpet that could not be installed for 2-3 weeks. Tihs required me to go back to Home Depot to select a 72-hour install carpet. The installer sent two people to install new carpeting but only one of the installers was able to actually install the carpeting. The other man was a trainee and was standing around most of the time. It took almost 11 hours for a job that I was told would take 6 max. What's worse is that the installer was about to leave when I noticed that he had not installed carpeting in two of the closets that were supposed to have carpet. The Installer also missed an area in the utility closet that has required that they come back out to finish the job. Fifth, the quality of the products on shelves is poor. I had to return a sink that was restocked with a huge dent in it.

We repair all types of damage, such as cracks, seam separations, chips and can refinish (remove scratches) & modify SOLID SURFACE (Corian, HiMacs, Livingstone, Staron, Wilsonart, & more). We also can repair cracks, nicks, seam splits & sink replacements in STONE countertops (Granite, Marble, Quartz, etc.) We can remove & replace sinks in both SOLIDS SURFACE & STONE TOPS including modifications to the countertop.

We also have technicians who cover Northern & Central Oregon & Western Washington up and down I-5.
"Mediocre service and absolutely appalling customer service. Before having our granite countertops cleaned and sealed, I specifically mentioned how I had used acetone to treat certain olive oil stains and deliberately asked whether or not this would affect the cleaning and sealing process. Their technician assured me that it would not. After one hour of work, I observed that many of the areas that I had previously treated with acetone were significantly darker than other areas of our granite countertops. I am pretty sure this was due to the acetone-affected areas not having any prior sealant, so they absorbed water or cleaner or other liquids that were used during the cleaning. I asked the technician why certain areas on our granite countertops were much lighter than the darker areas. His response was ,I do not really have an answer for you. I found this answer unprofessional and unacceptable for someone who specializes in countertop repairs. As someone who is untrained and unskilled in countertop repair, even I could tell that my countertops had been cleaned and wetted by some cleaning agent and then sealed immediately without enough time for the cleaner to evaporate. The fact that I specifically asked beforehand over the phone whether or not acetone-treated areas would be affected by his cleaning and then immediately found darkening issues on these exact areas is an issue I cannot overlook. Furthermore, upon contacting Cole Restoration about my complaint, I was given a generic email response about how they want all of [their] customers to have a good experience and they asked for photos. I quickly replied with photos showing the areas of concern. This was over a month ago. Since then I have sent two follow up emails and left a voice message. Still ZERO response. All around dreadful, neglectful, and unacceptable. I can not and wont ever recommend Cole Restorations to anyone after being an afterthought to them for over a month."
