About 2 weeks prior to installation, Bill & I realize the guy they sent to measure a basement closet did not include the measurements on the floor plan. Bill has already placed the order. He does a quick calculation in his head and says there
should be enough tile to do the closet. I originally told him it was approx 20sq feet. I go back a few days later and tell him it is
about 30sq ft. Fox should have sent someone back to my house to re-measure the sq footage correctly.
Installation Day - (Friday) Fox does a very good job removing the carpet from the basement floor and installing the new tile. It looks really nice. However, they are short tiles.. They barely make it to the closet doorway.
I also paid Fox to remove the carpet from the basement stairs. (I had a carpenter sand/stain/poly the stairs)
Fox Floors sent a second crew of 2 guys to remove the carpet from the basement staircase. The guys from Fox Floors removed the carpet. I did not inspect the stairs closely after they removed the carpet as I was working from home all day.
I paid Foxx 1/3 of the job upfront before the job started. I told their guy I would pay another 1/3 of the payment that Friday night after they finished the main room. I told him to have Bill call me in the morning to order the 2 boxes of tile to finish the closet.
The next morning (Saturday) I noticed the bull nose was broken at the end of the right side. There were also at least 100 staples still in stairs. A couple of friends who do home improvement said the bullnose on the step was just broken. The carpenter who replaced the step said it was also probably recently broken.
Bill call me the next morning. He says Fox wants $690 to finish the closet. I tell him his guy probably broke the bullnose on the step. Bill tells me they will send someone out to look at the step. Ok, no problem. He tells me they have stock pine and will take care of it. I tell him I will pay the balance that Monday. Then he tells me because I spent around $4200, they would give me a break and only charge me $500 for the closet.
About 10min later, the manager, I think his name is Gabe calls me. He insists that Fox Floors did not break the bullnose. He claims that his guy told me the previous night that the step was broken. This is absolute bullsh*t. No one said anything or showed me the step. I got very annoyed when he said that. He insists there is no way they broke the bullnose. Then he tells me that they finished the job and should be paid in full. I said the job was not finished. They knew I wanted the closet done as well. Gabe is insistant that I pay. He has no clue how to deal with customers. He really annoyed me and I hung up.
About 2 hours later (still saturday) I call Bill back. All of a sudden his story changes. He says there is no way they could have broken the bullnose. He takes $125 off the bill and I pay them in full. He tells me Fox will do the closet for just the cost of the materials and he would call me back on Monday. I never heard from them again.
The guys who laid the tile did an excellent job. The guys who handled the stairs, not such a great job in hindsight. I question the professionalism of their manager. Hard to trust anything they say.
The carpet is thick and beautiful and the installation was excellent. We are very happy we chose Fox Floors.
Love the product and customer service!
