      We purchase a patio enclosure last summer and every time we have rain it gets flooded through the walls built by this company. We had documented with pictures and they have been in our home tree times to fix this issue. They come after many telephone calls and their service is not acceptable. We expended 48,000.00 dollars

      They tore out part of our roof to add sunroom and now it leaks and is destroying our insulation and causing water damage to our house. And every time we ask for them to fix it they just play like it was taken care of.

      My husband and I signed a contract for a patio enclosure with Patio Enclosure on 10/5/23. We gave them almost $7,000 and we have not heard from them much since then. We are not on the schedule, there is no timelines for us to be on the schedule and they simply say that they will keep our nearly $7,000 if we cancel our contract. We have reached out to the AZ attorney general, whom it seems believes we should hire an attorney and I just wonder how quick will our money transfer from Patio Enclosures to the lawyer. It's sad. We are senior citizens and I am a veteran but it seems there's really no consumer protections in AZ. And it seems there is no one looking our for the little guy.

      Thank you very much for your help with my situation. I am willing to wait until ****** returns the first part of May. I have been told I will be at the top of his list. I am willing to close the case, as long as I know I can reach out to you again, should Great Day Improvements not follow through with their promise.

      I am a little bit confused, however, as to why the sign put in my yard read Patio Enclosures, but now I deal with Great Day Improvements. Did the company change their name, or does Great Day Improvements subcontract out some of their jobs to other companies?

      We sign our contract on 3/22//2023 for a patio enclosure we keep contacting someone about it, but they keep needing something different everytime to get started it's been a year now with this company...

      We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused by the delays in your project. We understand and share your frustration. We are committed to delivering projects promptly and efficiently. The delays have been caused by circumstances beyond out control. We tried for several months to get approval from your HOA, which we never received, and additional documentation that the Horry County Permit Department required (we needed a 3rd party engineer letter to apply for the permit, a copy of the survey, which we had to hire a company to get and it took them 4 weeks to come out, and additional forms that you had to sign) All needed documentation was submitted to the permit department and we were able to obtain the permit Friday. A rep from your local branch will be reaching out to you to discuss the next steps of your project. Thank you for reaching out, and we appreciate your understanding.

      I had windows installed in 2008. They come with a lifetime warranty however the company is stonewalling replacing the windows they installed in our front room. I initiated conversations with them in August 2023. A couple people came out, agreed there was a problem with the seals on the windows, two took measurements, and now we are in "radio silence". The last communication was on January 31 that they were checking with manufacturing. Now, no response from emails, text messages, or phone messages (no one actually answers the phone when calling the main number). I would steer clear of this company and go with that "other" worldly company that actually honors their lifetime guarantees.

      I suggest the BBB keep this issue open until Patio Enclosures actually resolves the issue. We had a visit from a representative who assured us someone would be in touch to remeasure our windows and work with us on replacements. This in April. A follow up call was received on April 24 and we have heard nothing since.

      I truly wish they would just give us a truthful answer so we can move on

      Business Response

      Date: 05/17/2024

      Our records indicate we were onsite 5/13/24 to measure the windows. We have submitted the order for your new windows and will contact you as soon as they have arrived to our warehouse. This may take several weeks. Thank you.

       I am rejecting this response because: I have been trying to get a resolution to our window situation since August 2023. We've reached this step in the process (where someone comes to measure the windows) once before and all communication ceased after that point. I prefer to keep this open until the company actually comes back to me with the solution and completes implementation. It is regretful that I cannot get a contact from the company who stays in touch with status updates and that I had to resort to contacting the BBB to get any response

      2023 in the last quarter of the year, we signed the contract. They were going to use our house for advertising and took the drawings and said that soon someone would be out to measure. Then silence. I called and asked about the measuring, as we had taken everything off our porch. I could hear them, it sounded like i disturbed them all from hanging at the office. "yeah, I'll come out tomorrow". Then silence. the next communication was from the lending bank, they had dispersed the down payment. At the time, we had no idea where the project was. No communication what so ever. I called, had they done the permits, had they started construction, had they done anything at all besides take our money? He didn't know, he'd get back to me. Yep, you guessed it. Silence. So i called again, "we're thinking maybe we want out of this deal", he said, it will cost the entire down payment to get out of the deal. Then, i get a call from two "supervisors", they leave a number; the sales mans number. He calls, "we don't want you to leave, we're working, we're doing this, etc" then, Silence. Finally, i called the lending bank. We want out, the customer service is HORRIBLE. The lending bank put a block on it and no more money can be withdrawn. When i did that, i got calls all day. But still, no evidence that any work has been done. We want the money that you took and haven't used for the work you were supposed to do. I am glad, that unlike the other unfortunate people we don't have to pay the complete price for a low quality product, but still, we don't want to have to pay for low quality promises either.

      We started this project around Sept. They claim to measure twice, so when ordering the product, there are no delays. There were delays—w***g-size windows, missing screens, and shipments not arriving on time, to name a few. We worked with the company even though we were losing time at work when they were no-shows. They claimed to have finished the work and were waiting for their final payment. We discovered water pooled on the interior window tracks and refused to pay the final $3000 until the p***lem was corrected. They initially declined to send workers to the site because we didn't pay, and once we paid, it would activate our warranty. They also claimed it was designed to pool water, but slipped up and stated on the exterior track. After their slip-up, they sent workers finally to assess that p***lem. On January 9th, we had an all-day rain. Rain was coming in from above the one window, in the window tracks, through the brick, by the door, on the one side of our porch. I sent photos, and after much persistence - they sent two workers to assess the p***lem. The p***lem continued as it rained. This is their response to me regarding the p***lem -"I have spoke with **** (Lead Installer) and *** (Field Supervisor) and received various pictures of the foundation. The guys said that water is infiltrating your overhang as well as the joints of the existing knee wall. These items are not covered under the warranty and they’re not GDI responsibility. I have attached a copy of the signed contract for your viewing. If you would like recommendations for companies that handle repointing, I may be able to find you some."

      Date: 01/30/2024

      We are so sorry to hear you were dissatisfied with the service you received. We are an upstanding company that stands behind our finished products. Our team did come out and assess your situation. It was determined that your clogged gutters and issues with the mortar on the existing structure were to blame for the water intrusions. We do not give a warranty on any existing structure, and this is in your signed contract. This problem was there prior to us installing and was not noticed as the floor would be wet from rain since you did not have any doors/windows in the room previously. We are more than willing to help you find someone to help correct your issues.  Please let us know if we can be of any more assistance or you can contact *** directly. Thank you for reaching out, we use every review as a way to improve our customer experience.

      Customer Answer

       I am rejecting this response because: how do I know  for certain that when they installed the windows the drilling into the brick foundation didn't damage the foundation/mortar causing the water to leak onto the porch.  Also being experts in the industry, why wouldn't a company recommend proactive measures?  I can't be the first or last customer who would experience this issue. If the company knew in advance what might go w***g, they should have made recommendation to the consumer in best practices to ensure customer satisfaction.  When their employees came out to assess the issue, they made comments regarding caulking concerns and reassure me that they would be able to do repairs after they spoke with their supervisor.  Therefore, you can understand my disappoint with this response.  Nothing is covered by their warranty.   My interior window frames are still pooling water even after additional weep holes were installed to correct this issue. I am wondering how much longer it will be before we experience more problems.   The area on the ceiling that they are claiming is leaking do to clogged gutters could also have been compromised when the installed the window frames. They climbed up on a ladder and removed a handful of leaves.  My mistake was not recording our conversation when they came out to assess the situation.

      We understand your concerns and frustration with the situation you're experiencing. However, after investigating the issues with your windows and the water leakage onto your porch, we've determined that the root cause lies in pre-existing conditions such as issues with your gutters and missing mortar on your existing structure. As a company, we don't warrant existing structures, and unfortunately, these issues fall outside the scope of our responsibility. Regarding your speculation about the installation process potentially causing damage to the foundation or mortar, we assure you that our installation procedures adhere to industry standards and prioritize the integrity of your property. While we acknowledge that unforeseen issues can arise, our technicians are trained to minimize any potential risks during the installation process. If we had known there would be issues caused by installing the sunroom on your existing structure, we would have addressed those concerns prior to the installation. Attached is a copy of the warranty we provide. Thank you for reaching out.

      I have had difficulty filing my response.  I continually receive the error message.  I would like my voice and complaint heard.  

      I am rejecting this response because:  They are just providing me with lip service.  I still have water pooling in the interior window panes which is not a special design feature.  Even after installing additional weep holes, they have not corrected the problem and I may be facing additional problems in the future.  I also have no proof that their installation met industry standards.  I don't believe that industry standards for installing sunrooms include the possibility of an unwanted indoor swimming pool in a finished room.  I understand  that problems may arise and contingency plans may need to be in place.  Great Day Improvements also acknowledged that they are aware that problems may arise in their response to me, but they have no plans in place to rectify the problem except to place the blame on the homeowners and to wash their hands of the problems.  When they sold the work to us, they were all rainbows and unicorns and now I understand why.  They were seeing the future where they were stealing my pot of gold and leaving me with problems to address on my own.  I am frustrated and disappointed.  Hopefully, the white stuff growing on my bricks is not mold.  If I was told in advance that it was recommended for me to have my bricks pointed, I was at least given the opportunity to make my own decision.  If I had to have my bricks repointed prior to the sunroom installation, I can understand why Great Day Improvements might not have wanted to share that information with me because I might not have been financially able to afford both projects and they didn't want to have the misfortune of missing out on a contract.  That is shady from my perspective.  Now, I may not have an option.  I don't think crippling the consumer is best customer service practices.  I don't feel that these are practice that the Better Business Bureau hopes to promote.  Great Day Improvements doesn't provide the consumers with Great Customer Service.  Nothing is covered under the warranty.  Honesty is the best policy.

      I purchased a "4 season's sun room" from patio enclosures in April 2021. They have consistently been late on building and completing my project. The entire process took longer than a Year. Following this I have had difficulty with the room, causing horrible condensation and leaks. This is especially problematic in the winter. Our framing is covered in ice, which when melts drips all over the room causing flood damage. The company has kept us in the dark about the sunroom. I was reassured it would work fine in the winter. Only to be told 2 years later, that this is a 3 season room, and me heating the room is causing condensation because I am using a gas fireplace. I have since started using a space heater to heat the space, without any change. Winter 2022 Great day improvements, purchased a dehumidifier for my sunroom, to help. This did not solve any problem. Then Spring 2023 they took the dehumidifier away, and brought in an industrial size dehumidifier, which was odorous, and worked worse than the initial home humidifier. The staff came in a week later and took the the dehumidifier away. I was told that I would be contacted by the company, AS they needed to replace windows to our doors due to the ice build up and a seal being broken. I have not heard from anyone since. It is now January 2024, temperatures are low, my sunroom is an icebox, that constantly fluctuates in temperatures causing frosting /freezing and flooding. I am extremely concerned about mold and health and safety of my family. I am requesting help in reaching out to this company, to either get a refund, or build us the 4 seasons room we deserve at no additional cost to me. This was promised by their employee at the time of purchase. I am extremely frustrated for myself, my family as well as the future consumers of this company. This is a misleading company, and after spending so much time and money, I feel and am SCAMMED!

      We sincerely apologize for your experience not being what we would hope for and the miscommunication with your sales rep (who is no longer with the company). A 3 seasons room is not meant to be used year-round. In warmer climates this room can be used year-round but in NE Ohio that is not always possible. Condensation is being cause by high humidity levels in your home and in the winter this needs to be kept to a minimum. We do acknowledge that there were delays in your room's completion. We do our best to finish every project as quickly and efficiently as possible. We apologize that we missed the mark this time on completion, but we stand behind our finished product. Our records indicate the glass with seal failure has been replaced and all services have been completed. Someone from your local branch will be reaching out to you to discuss any further concerns that you have.
