Review from Steve V.

Hands down the worst experience I have ever had with a contractor. It’s been over 5 months since Sal, who was quick to do so, collected my deposit. 3 trips to my house spread over 4 months, they have two garage doors installed, one with a black handle as shown in the quote, one without. One has the motor installed (doesn’t work though), one they never started. The secretary has called me four different times now to schedule a time to come finish the install, which I tell her every time, the house is under construction and thanks to their garage door, it cant lock so please come any time and finish. Four calls, four different dates set, zero times shown up. When the first motor was being installed I pulled up to my house to see how things were going to find a section larger than a refridgerator box of charred and blackened pavers in a paver driveway that was less than a week old. When I questioned the two disgruntled men working there, they claimed they accidentally lit a box on fire with a cigarette but not to worry, it didn’t catch the house. I called Sal in an uproar and he told me he “doesn’t think his guys would light a fire”, and never called me again about the issue, could have truly cared less even with the countless photos I sent. His secretary, one of the many times scheduling my next no show appointment, told me those guys were just hired and fired, and not to worry, the next guys they hire and send wont light any fires. So 5 months later, I have two garage doors, that don’t match, one motor that doesn’t work, and one door I can not lock. The best of it all is, my original quote was for $4121.66. I gave a deposit of $2743.00 to order the doors Sal stated. I just found out by looking at my credit card statement, Sal took it upon himself to charge my card $1648.66 last month, without so much as mentioning it to me (or finishing my job and replacing the pavers his workers destroyed). So in the end, I was charged $4391.66 for a job that was quoted at $4121.66, for a job that is not complete, for a job that caused about $1500 in destruction to my property. There wasn’t an honest, concerned, geniune, sincere or appreciated action by Saugus Over Head door or any of its employees. This was a lot more than just a bad experience.
