"This is not true, we gave him price 1 yr ago never heard back. He called this yr gave price, he called back didn't want to pay price?"
Overall I rate them very poorly.
They were not honest with us from the beginning. The folders they give you with their information...ie thier work standards...say very clearly thet Solarshield never uses subcontracters. The workcrew that eventually showed up to perform the work told us from the first day they were subcontractors. The owner of the subcontracting business even gave me his card (which I still have) and told me that Solarshield was overcharging us for the job and that the next time we needed any work done, we should call him.
We first contacted Solarshield in early June of 2013. We met with the salesmen and came to an agreement for the work to be done. They told us they would be able to start in 4-5 weeks. At that time we put 1/3 of the full price down in cash. We had dealt with this salesman previously when he owned another local construction company...and he had treated us very well...so we were not hesitant to enter into a contract with him. He had sold his business to Solarshield and he assured us that they did excellent work and that we would be very pleased with any work they did for us.
When the second week of July came and went with no sign of the work being started we stopped by their office and inquired. The salesman who we met with in our home told us the next day that they had simply forgotten about us and he was very sorry and that the work would be statrted shortly.
They came to start the work around August 1, 2013. They began in the garage and at first they seemed to be pretty good. However...we began to notice problems when they were finishing up the drywall in the garage. The seams were showing through
the mud they had put on to seal them. It didn't appear that they had used any tape to cover the seams up when applied the mud mixture. When we questioned them...they assured us that they had used tape...it was just that the quality of the drywall was not good and it was moving due to the settling of the house. They said they would remud the seams and we wouldn't even be able to see them when they were done.
They remudded them and never bothered to sand them down to get ready to paint. The contract we signed with them was clear to say that the walls were to be completely sanded and ready to paint. (We were going to do the painting ourselves.) As it turned out my wife and I had to apply more mud mixture and sand the seams ourselves before we could paint.
"We certainly understand your frustration with the door. We have mentioned the lack of insulation to that manufacturer several times. If there is anything else we can do to increase the use or enjoyment of the room please let us know. I will have the service department follow up with you on some ideas to better insulate the door."
