Dixie Homecrafters

Sleezy Unprofessional salespersons — Gutter Guards — At a local festival We filled out a card to win free gutters on our home. The very next day we had several phone calls about sending someone out to give us an estimate. We agreed. They told us it take about 10 to 20 minutes. The ‘salesman’ came in and plopped down on the couch and started chit chatting about the weather and the neighborhood. We tried to hurry him along by saying we have lots of things to do today. He just wouldn’t take the hint. He wouldn’t even get started on his JOB. After the first HOUR, We finally had to stand up and start walking (with him) out the door like we were hearding cattle. Outside he kept talking and talking. Now it was time to talk business… He asked, would you like the long story or short story about our company’s history? [No story please] …We didn’t want to be rude but we kindly asked if he could just get on with the estimate we don’t need a story. Finally after the measurements were taken he said the cost would be $ 7000. Then he pulled out his papers and asked how we want to pay. We said we will think it over and review our budget and get back with him. He seemed upset that we did not agree to sign papers and hand over $ 7000 on the spot. Then he offered discounts bringing the cost down to $ 5300. for gutters only no down spouts (mind you our new roof only costed $ 4500) We still said great. We’ll think it over and review our funds. He got very upset with us and started packing up his things. We said… This was an estimate right? We have not decided to do business with you yet! He said. «Well I thought we were getting along just fine but i guess not!» «then as he was packing to leave he said, «I guess you just don’t want our business.» and stormed out… Well needless to say… we will NOT be doing business with that mess. Dixie
does not offer a place to complain or leave a review. The whole visit lasted 2 hours not 10 to 20 minutes!
