It was difficult to manage the job remotely, but the simple elements of attention todetail were missing.
I was given a time that the work would start, and it kept changing., and a time that the work would be completed which was not kept to.
The core work of replacing the walls, tile etc was done to a good standard, it was the additional elements that were paid for that caused the trouble. Removal of a shower screen in the second bathroom left sealant all arount, holes in the wall unfilled, and the shower curtain pole not fitted. I had to call again to get the work finished, taking extra time.
It was an unusual job that I was managing remotely, and the co
mpany handled that well - but overall the attention to detail was just missing for me, so I would not hire them again.
"Thank you so much for your review. We appreciate the open attitude and hope that we can serve you in the future somehow."
"We greatly appreciate that you would take the time to review. While the deal did not match perfectly, we hope that we might have an opportunity to serve you later; we do strive to accommodate our customers both with quality and economy. Thanks again."
"Tile Creations strives to satisfy the needs of its customers, and we tried very hard to make it clear that the needs of the homeowner did not and could not fit the criteria of the deal mentioned. Angie's list had mistakenly run a photograph of a different type of tile job, which confused the customer. When we explained that the deal covered the walls of a bathtub-shower combination rather than a walk-in shower, he continued to try to get us to make the deal fit. Shower remodeling calls for different materials, such as shower pans, and the square footage is significantly different. Thus, the project he wished to do could not be fit within the parameters of the deal. We were happy to try to give him a fair price on the project he wished to have done, but there was not the kind of discount, we believe, that he was hoping for. It is always a good idea to call a company and make sure you are purchasing the product you seek. We regret that there has been any misunderstanding and hope that the customer will reconsider our services."
"This review is particularly distressing, as we have no record of these calls. Are you certain that Tile Creations is the company you called? Forgive me for sounding incredulous, but no business in their right mind calls a customer back and speaks rudely, or hangs up. At least, not without tremendous provocation! We have spoken with everyone in the office and no one has come across your name. Frankly, we are mystified. In the interest of keeping goodwill of some sort, we apologize for anything you perceive our company has done. We make every effort to return calls in a timely fashion, use the utmost grace in our dealings, and to satisfy the requests of potential customers any way that we can. We would certainly wish to make good on any requests you might have of our company and sincerely hope that you will call us. I am certain that we were not the company that dealt so harshly with you and I would like very much to have the opportunity to serve you in the future. -Andre Paschall, owner"
Throughout the process they took special care to protect floors and carpet outside the work area. The entire job was completed in one week.
However, from the beginning there were communication problems with regard to the specifics of the Ange's list offer from this company. For example, it was not clear from the advertisement that $800 for tiling really meant that 50-60% of this was for labor and that 40-50% was the real allowance for purchase of tiles. This could have been more explicit in the advertisement.
It should have been made clear that certain tiles, such as Travertine, would require additional payment for labor. This was also true for the installation of one row of accent tiles, which were part ceramic, part Travertine.
I assumed that remodeling a 5 ft x 7 ft bathroom also included painting the areas that were not retiled. This was not the case and there was further discussion on this matter. I eventually asked other contractors to complete the painting of the bathroom and requested that Tile Creations Inc pay 50% of this cost.
These communication issues detracted considerably from my experience with this company.
"We were really pleased to work with this homeowner; she and her husband were very pleasant. It appears that, perhaps, the homeowner did not fully read/understand the advertised deal and the ensuing conversations that explained it. There were actually very clear parameters stated in the deal; adding tile that required different materials would be more expensive both in the tile itself and setting material, as well as the labor to install. We were supposed to paint, and had agreed to do so, but the homeowner's effort to coordinate with another construction job ran far beyond time we could allot, so we refunded some of her payment so that the other company might coordinate. This was a difficult choice on our part; we simply were running too thin with the huge response to the deal. We hired extra crews to handle the excessive demand but it was rather unfortunate that the tight scheduling kept us from being able to return in a prudent time. Thus, the decision to refund some of her money seemed the only fair thing to do. In hindsight, we would probably hire even more people, or limit the number of deals available. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope that our customers will consider using us again."
