Expected WAY more than what we got!! The 3 plus hour presentation of how great their business, product and installation process was all LIES! We were treated beyond unfairly from the day the salesperson got a signed contract to the day the got their final check. We gave them a $13,500 initial payment to order/build 14 windows, 3 storm doors and 1 entry door, more than 1/2 of the total cost of the job on Nov 9th. We didn't hear from anyone until just before Christmas, we were told there was a mix up with our order, the job should've been started already and near completion by now... After weeks of trying to rectify the issue we reluctantly agreed to continue the project instead of canceling and getting hit with a 25% fee even though they failed to hold up their end of the contract.
The day came for installation and what a joke it was, we were promised the best crew they had and that we would be beyond happy with how the installation goes and how it will all look in the end... What we got was a foreman that would rather be doing something else.. He left the job site early on day 2 due to "illness" but it didn't stop him from sitting in his truck blasting music in my driveway while his team attempted to cleaned up because he was too sick to do anything but listen to obnoxiously loud music with his feet hanging out the window... They left my front door without the metal plates to secure the latches which would make for an easy break in, I secured it myself but for a $23,000+ job I would think I would've be taken care of throughout this whole process, but not with RIHI they just want to get paid.
Day 3 comes, COMPETITION DAY, and the foreman is a no show no call... wasted a whole day waiting for a supposed reputable company to come finished the job I paid them to do. At around 2pm the RIHI secretary calls and informs me that the foreman is ill and won't be able to finish the job. After a frustrating recorded conversation, we rescheduled to the following Monday.
Monday comes and NOW they bring the team they should've brought from DAY 1, box trucks with logos and a clean up crew ready to work, not someone in a rusty 2003 chevy that's on its last leg... and I'm not judging a book by its cover because I gave them the benefit of the doubt but they failed each and every chance they got to actually save face for the company just look at the photos, scratched floors where they were working, trash and saw dust left all over my yard that got blown into my neighbors yards, two storm doors that were put in backwards and don't properly latch, poor craftsmanship in the windows the list goes on and on... just look at the photos! I have more too along with videos!
On the day they finished the owner Anthony showed up and swore to me that we would be taken care of at that he would come back to make sure we were 100% happy, he never showed up. When they felt they were done, the foreman handed me the remaining balance bill and papers to sign to say that I was satisfied, I gave him a check for the balance and didn't sign a thing. Anthony called a few days later and asked how things went, I told him about the many issues including how they installed two storm doors BACKWARDS! I mean they're supposedly professional, the best! how do you install two doors that are across from each other backwards?! They also used wood that was mines I had set aside for another project instead of going to buy they're own wood.
Anthony offer to fix the problems but at that point I had enough of their unprofessionalism and told him we want nothing to do with RIHI, we were done and they had their check, which they cashed that night! THIS COMPANY IS FUELED BY GREED!! I would never EVER recommend RIHI to anyone! Go with someone, anyone else! Save yourself the time and headaches! Just read all the other 1 star reviews!
Every window looked like the photos when the said the job was "completed"
