DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY
DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. If I could have rated zero, I would have done.
Ordered substantial workshops for a 4x1.5m island, plus 5m unit top in January 2020. They quoted, surveyed, I paid, then had a call from Ryan in the showroom 2 days before fitting was due to be told he hadn't quoted correctly and wanted another £700. If I didn't agree, he'd probably be sacked.....I paid, as we all make mistakes at times and thought no more of it.
I had to chase the morning of the fitting as no contact had been made, so had to guess on arrival times etc. These are small details but I should have realised at the time that this is in no way a professional set up.
The worktops were fitted in one day and all seemed ok, but afterwards, the seals started to come out in various areas. The seamless looking joins started to look poor, so I contacted them. This was newly lockdown, so made a point in my email to say I appreciated the timing, but I just wanted to inform them (with photos to show), and when they were in a position to, would they arrange to have this looked at.
Then no response over coming months so I got in touch in July and started corresponding with Katy in customer service. Their website (and still to this day, does not say they are closed). Eventually after several more months of me getting in contact every now and again for an up date, in September a date was given for November. This date came (made sure I was not at work and at home), and no one turned up. Rang, rearranged, again, no one turned up. Then after me chasing yet again, a date was set for second week of January. Then 2 days beforehand, the fitters have come down with COVID....they would 'be in touch shortly' (this is their favourite saying), what it actually means is no one cares and in no uncertain terms, will you be contacted. I had an email from Russ who told me he also, would be in touch shortly, which was in January. Nothing. I chased again on 27th Jan. Nothing. Contacted again 8th Feb saying the owner and a sales member have come down with COVID, then the polishers..... so we'll be in touch shortly. I emailed this week asking for an up date and have had an email from 'Planet Granite', (no name wanted to be given clearly), saying Katy no longer works there and for me to call after 12th April, so I assume they've now decided to close? Maybe reopen on the 12th? They won't contact me though, I yet again was told to contact them. I've since responded and nothing......unsurprisingly.
I am a business owner and appreciate the logistics and difficulty of running a business through COVID, (especially one that visits residential settings which we do too), but never have I given or experienced such awful customer service. The aftercare is beyond appalling. I would NEVER recommend this company. It seems they like to ignore rather than deal with a situation and that's just not what you need with something like this. I suppose I will have to contact another company and pay to get this fixed. Though hugely sympathetic to the challenges of the last year, not one, but a number of people from this company have given poor customer service on a level I find shocking. I can't even blame just one fo them!
I've let off writing such a scathing review for such a long time now hoping that something would be sorted, if just an email to say they understand and are committed to putting their shoddy work right, but I think this is way above the level this company is able or trained to give.
Order at your own risk.
