Description of Work: This company did not even know how to install an electrical operating awning. The first day they came out they said our electrical outlet was not working and we would need to hire an electrician to fix the outlet because there was no power at the outlet. I told them them was nothing wrong with the outlet and I would bring out a small lamp to prove it. They said no and left.I called their office and told them of the incident and waited days for them to send someone else back out. I tried to cancel this purchase but because all the material had been cut to size I was unable to do so. When they came back out and installed the awning it wasn't installed corectly and made aloud a loud screeching noise upon operating. I called them many times regarding this noise and was told this was normal for operating.Finally many months later one of the supervisors came out and fixed the problem.This company was unprofessional, rude and didn't have the knowledge to install the awning. MY son's experience with them below. Due to heavy snow this year, my son who had a large heavy metal awning noticed it had bent from the heavy snow that was on it and might colaspe, called Patio Enclosures forgetting about our experience with them. They promised to come out and remove the awning. It was days later that the awning colasped on him, knocking him out and traped him under that awning. When Patio Enclosures saw this incident on TV one of the managers called him and said they felt so bad about it that they would come out and remove the awning free of charge. They did come out and removed the awning and gave my son an estimate for a new awning, a very high price. My son explained to them that he needed to check with his insurance company before making a comitment with them. In the meantime he received a bill from them for removing the awning. Although he never signed anything they expected him to pay for the service they offered free. We will never do business of any kind with Patio Enclosures again.

Response from Betterliving Sunrooms & Awnings
The unfortunate thing with this review is that the work this individual refers to was completed by Patio Enclosures Incorporated in 2005--- a company that went out of business in 2010. Patio Enclosures of Kansas City is owned by ADDCO LLC a company formed in February of 2012. The only relationship to Patio Enclosures Incorporated that we have is that we are an independent dealer of Great Day Improvement LLC which purchased the assets the bankrupt Patio Enclosures Incorporated. With respect to the current experience with Patio Enclosures of Kansas City, it again is unfortunate that this situation has gone from a small company attempting to do a good deed for an individual to a situation of being accused of being a villain…….disappointing at best. The basic facts are we were contacted by the homeowner (not the individual who wrote the critique) to address a problem with a failing metal canopy. Upon inspection it was determined that it was not a Patio Enclosures product and an offer was made to immediately remove what was considered a dangerous situation at a quoted price. The homeowner declined making a commitment pending confirmation of insurance coverage. A couple of days later he is on TV ….When contacted while in the hospital the homeowner was told that Patio Enclosures of Kansas City would remove the damaged canopy and advised “if insurance covered it great…. if not it would be on me.” A decision I now regret but one that seemed like the right thing to do at the time. Later, we were contacted by this homeowner who rather abruptly, without explanation advised that he was going in a different direction with respect to replacing the patio cover, offering no additional information…only to follow with a less than complimentary telephone call ……..and now the negative comment on my company…

I picked this company because I first used several of their workmen in 2007 to build my lovely four-season room ($32,000, if memory serves me). The national corporation that built my room went out-of-business through no fault of Jim and his staff. I am so happy that Jim reorganized and became Patio Enclosures of KC. I really believe that they can do more for the homeowner now that they are much more deversified! I am going to have them build me a pergola next because they really are very, very skilled. I cannot say enough good things about this company--its owners and workmen. Jim takes alot of time with the client. Making you happy makes him happy. He discusses your needs and understands them fully in order to complete the desired project. I have always been very satisfied with the results from Jim and company. Actually, I have been delighted and have even gotten a better outcome than I could have expected. The workers are so talented that they could be home builders! Jim, Joe (foreman/part owner) and Steve are a delight to work with. These people become friends not just workmen. I dislike hav ing any workmen around the house, but not these guys....I trust this company completely, and again, cannot say enough wonderful things about them. I will continue to call on them for any and all of my home improvement needs because I think they can and will do any project or know someone qualified who can.
Description of Work: This company removed the original steps that came with my sunroom in 2007 and built a beautiful deck for me.

These projects went as planned and were completed on time. Quality was never compromised to get the projects finished on time.
Description of Work: Built a great sunroom in 2010 and then added a deck off the sunroom in 2012. These guys are great to work with...they are punctual and very professional. The quality of work is the best. They kept me informed during the whole project and made recommendations to add value. I would absolutely use them again and again and will continue to recommend them.
