    I hired Stanley steamer to perform floor cleaning in my home on 7/11/22 involving carpet cleaning, tile cleaning, and rug cleaning. Two employees from the company came in the time that was planned and were very pleasant to deal with. To clean 3 carpeted areas, three tile areas, and two area rugs, they were only in my home for about an hour. After they left and I looked over the work that was done, I noticed how poorly the tile floors had been cleaned. The area was soaked and it was obvious that some work was done there however, there was a lot of space, in each of the three ********** that had not been touched. There were clumps of dog hair behind the door, in corners, and around the perimeter under the cabinets. You can actually see a perimeter of dust where I had picked items up on the floor prior to them coming that had clearly never been touched. I contacted the company via their website and chatted with an individual that evening. They had offered a courtesy cleaning but that does not work with my schedule as I am expecting a baby very soon and was not happy with the service so did not with to juggle my schedule for them to return, I explained this to them. They then said they would send a note to the regional manager. After several days of not hearing from them, I contacted them through the website again and on 7/18/22, I was contacted by someone at the corporate level. They were sincere and courteous and explained that because this is a franchise, all disputes must go through the regional office and he stated that he would contact them to try to help progress things. Several days passed and I still hadnt heard anything so I sent another message through the website on 7/23/22. It is now 7/26/22 and I have yet to have any sort of contact from someone at a regional level. I am asking for the services to the tile floors to be refunded.

    I filed a complaint with you on 7/26/22 and have not received any communication regarding it other than the next day saying that it was sent to the company. I was just wanting to follow up on this as it has been nearly 2 months since filing.
