Sliding glass door installation
Dishonest and very unprofessional.
Philip,
We were contracted to replace a piece of glass in the window mentioned, which was not covered under warranty as it was not a fault of the product itself that caused the need for replacement. We quoted the glass unit to you, to which you accepted, and we ordered the product.
When we attended to perform the installation, and remove the aluminum cladding from the wood window to access the area needed for the glass install the wood behind the cladding began to splinter. We halted the service, as we did not want to cause damage to the sash by further attempting to remove the cladding. We advised you that we could continue, but that there would be some damage to the sash and the best option was to replace the sash as well. This was to give you the best result and finish, and not for any other purpose.
You requested a refund after the above sash was quoted to be replaced along with the glass. We stated we would refund you if you wished or we could replace the sash and glass to complete the service, providing you with 2 options on how to proceed. You never responded for over 6 months and as a result we warehoused the materials for you free of charge for a 6 month period during which time you never responded to us. You then contacted us again a few weeks ago after 6 months of no contact, and requested for us to proceed with the sash replacement option. We began that process with the manufacturer to obtain materials at your request.
After extensive back and forth communication between Heritage and the manufacturer they allowed the sash materials to be covered under warranty at this time, and inadvertently sent those materials to their regional technician instead of Heritage (sash including glass). The service was then completed and you paid an amount to them directly. This service was completed as a result of hours and hours of work by Heritage to get all of this processed, and the purchase of materials by Heritage at your request (glass) that now cannot be returned.
