I never saw Mr. Blue again. Subsequently, he called and indicated that his partner would contact me to complete the work. Scheduling with his partner was difficult but after a number of phone calls his partner showed up to complete the work during the week ending on 3/1/2013. Mr. Blue and I have had a number of lengthy email exchanges about problems with the work but in short the major problems were as follows:
1. Removed the screen door latch then drilled hole in screen door for doorknob/lock without regard to where it needed to be to contact the latch. When I replaced the latch with a new but identical latch, the doorknob/lock would not reach the latch.
2. Did not clean the screens for the patio doors.
3. Deck post repair consisted of using a caulk gun to spread lock-tite adhesive on the area with no sanding etc. Repair is very noticeable.
4. Did not clean garage door--I discovered this the day my Realtor was taking pictures of my home and we lowered the garage door.
5. Entrance pavilion floor did not look good after pressure washing--dull and dingy (it has brick pavers) so we agreed to seal it with Thompson's water seal. This sealer over-prayed onto the front door (but not visible for several days until it dried).
6. Also the bill reflected charges for things I completed (I cleaned the screen and garage door) or materials I provided (I provided the paint for the door since he didn't bring it with him).
7. Also, we added several items to job as it progressed but the extra billing did not accurately reflect the time they spent on the additional items (over-charged).
Even after several lengthy e-mail exchanges in which I described the problems with this work, Mr. Blue did not address the problems nor did he come to my house to check the work. His partner subsequently left a message for me that he would "get this work right for me" but it would be the next week but I never heard from him again.
At the end of all this, Mr. Blue's position (as stated in his emails) appears to be that I paid him for the work and that means that I was satisfied with it and the subsequent problems that I discovered were not his problem. Not my idea of standing behind your work.
"I have never had to respond to a negative review because to my knowledge I have never had anyone not completely satisfied with our work.I am not aware of this customer but normally when a customer calls me are my partner ,we are able to address there concerns within a day are so. As you will find with our reviews we are a professional company with a long standing history of standing behind our work and will continue to. Thank you for your interest and if you decide to use Advanced Cleaning Solutions please if you have concerns ask us up front, its our pleasure to answer your questions. Thank you again to all the wonderful customers that have spent there own money and time giving us positive reveiws."
Lesser qualified service providers may charge less--while giving you more talk and promises with less quality. I recommend some friendly discussion about price, but know that you're getting quality work.
(I chose him over someone who bid $25 less than his final bid. The other bidder only pressure washes as a sideline.)
For peace of mind that you get from good quality, I definitely recommend.
Freddie came and gave me an estimate first for fixing a leak. He was so concerned that he sent someone on the roof that day in the rain to put something on the leak until he could get back.
He came back about a week later, and had someone go up and put new shingles on and fix what needed to be fixed. He has a professional pressure washing truck, trailor, and did a wonderful job on the house, the concrete, the out side buildings, even a shed. He is very fair and professional. We will use Advanced again .
"Thank you Member I know we removed the stains from your roof and the snake from your house but the snake scared me too. lol Thank you for the work. The member had some one come by and promised to clean her roof .They started and cleaned an area with a pressure washer that is totally the wrong thing to use on a roof.They realized they could not complete the job and just left the member home half cleaned half streaked .It was awful which is what made me extra happy to remove the black streaking properly with approved chemicals and equipment to leave her roof perfect as it shud be. All customers should be aware of people that claim to clean roofs . There are specific chemicals that are approved by shingle makers and specific processes that are approved to clean the roofs. We use both and have a great reputation and will continue to give great service but hopefully no more snake removal services lol. Thank you"
