    I had a flood at my house in April of 2021. Winmar did the emergecy work following the flood in April and May, during which time they manually lifted and moved our pool table away from the immediately affected area in the basement. The areas affected were the main floor and basement. We decided to do a cash payout and take care of the work ourselves and hiring our own contractors. The only work done in the basement shortly after the flood was the drywall work due to the fact there was drywall work to be done on the main floor of the house. After that, work in the basement (purchasing and installing the carpet) was put on the back burner, as the primary focus was to get the main living area done which was to be all vinyl plank so the kids and I could move back in to the house. Work in the basement commenced on Christmas, during which time I discovered that the slate had been cracked in several places in the pool table when I was cleaning the dust and balls off the top of it in preparation for it to be moved. I contacted the insurance company on January 1st, who then made SEVERAL attempts to contact the Winmar project manager. Those attempts were ignored. I checked in with the insurance company again and they tried once again several weeks later to contact the PM of Winmar. She finally responded and said it would take great force to do that kind of damage and they only moved it a few feet, and that they hadn't been in the house for a year (not true) and therefore would not take responsiblity for the damage. I emailed her back and let her know that it had not been a year and that with it being a basement, we left that work until last and had not done any work in there until December during which time I discovered the damage, and that I had several workers who could verify the table was where Winmar left it until then. I also forwarded her an email from a professional billiards establishment confirming moving a pool table the way Winmar did can do damage.

    Very poor service from Winmar. Took months to finally have a shower installed, they did not mitigate further Mold growth by putting water resistant material on the walls behind the shower and dismissed my concerns when they were raised. The walls of the shower are bubbling, I told them this and they still insist they did the install correctly but haven’t come out to look at it and instead decided to charge for it anyways. The work was less that up to par with many gaps and holes to be filled. They claim to have given us a discount for the terrible work but the bill is still $9000. Keep in mind what they did was remove some moldy drywall (2 feet) on a couple walls, drywalled and primed (terribly) and then installed a shower and the door does not even close properly so we will need to repair it ourselves (since they claim they did it correctly) The bathroom is barely 4 ft by 5Ft had to go through the invoice and pick out multiple things they tried to charge me for but did not do. I asked to have a supervisor involved but they never bothered to call me or come out and see the work they did. On top of it they took baseboards off the wall, saw the Mold and then didn’t include it in the work so they missed a bunch of Mold I now need to remove myself. The project Manager even admitted it was clear they should of seen it so she gave me a discount of $100 ***** ** * **** ** *** **** *** *********. More than happy to share the pictures! Absolutely request a different company to get your work done!
