    Review

    If there were a way to rate this company zero stars, I would have done it three times already. I was promised a consultation to assess what I needed, and not once but repeatedly, they blew me off. Three separate occasions passed without a single call, without a single visit, and without any explanation. It felt like they simply weren't interested in helping me or in doing the work they claimed they would do.

    From the very start, the experience felt unreliable and disrespectful. I made arrangements for someone to come out and evaluate my situation, but nobody showed up and there was no courtesy notice. Each missed appointment left me wondering if I had been mistaken about their willingness to assist, or if there was some ongoing pattern of disregard for customers' time. It became impossible to trust that any future appointment would be honored.

    Whenever I did try to follow up, I was met with a cascade of excuses. They offered "a million" different reasons for the no-shows, and promises that someone would call back or that the situation would be corrected. Yet those promises were short-lived and consistently unfulfilled. The more I pressed, the more excuses I received, and the more evident it became that there was no real accountability or plan to resolve the issue.

    This continued pattern left me feeling not just frustrated but utterly disenchanted with the company as a whole. The lack of reliable communication and the absence of follow-through painted a stark picture of a business that doesn't prioritize customer needs. It was hard to feel valued or heard when every attempt to engage was met with silence or a distracting assortment of justifications rather than a concrete solution.

    The language I used in my frustration reflected how strongly I felt: this is a terrible, terrible company. I found myself wishing, with real intensity, that every single one of the people involved would be fired and that the company would start over from scratch. The emotional impact was unmistakable - the sense that a trust had been broken and that the people responsible weren't being held accountable for their actions.

    At the very least, I hoped for a single person there who actually cared about people. A single representative who would honor commitments, communicate clearly, and show up when scheduled. That level of basic professionalism stands in stark contrast to what I experienced, and I still believe it's possible for the company to improve if they embrace accountability and put genuine customer care at the forefront.

    In the end, the pattern of missed appointments, inconsistent communication, and repeated excuses left a lasting negative impression. It wasn't just an inconvenience; it felt like a systemic issue that undermined trust and wasted my time and potential investment. If any positive takeaway exists, it's the clear message to others to proceed with caution, to demand concrete commitments, and to expects prompt, respectful follow-through - or otherwise look for a service that actually values its customers.
