      Answered
      Date of transaction:3/18/24 cost:$14,007.42. Expected to receive a properly installed floor according to luxury vinyl install standards. In front office noticed that the planks were not being properly distributed. Had very dark are in corner of room. Was told by installer to place a piece of furniture over it. He became very anxious when he thought he had to tear up the room and restart. I asked him”Aren’t you supposed to pull the out the floor planks so that the patterns don’t overlap.” The installer ***** replied “If I did that, I would be here forever” I asked him to please be mindful with his instillation moving forward and he said he would. Fast forward to the end , ***** was very respectable to my home and there was no damage to my surroundings. That was very important to me. So I did tip him and his helper. Unfortunately that was perceived as some kind of job acceptance or approval because someone somewhere found it acceptable to forge my husband signature on the customer completion form. My husband and I were never given the opportunity to inspect the finished product and sign off. After the installers left and I went about my cleaning the floors I found 2 damaged side by side boards and a horrible hap hazard instillation not warranted of $14,000. Unfortunately. ***** took little time or effort the place these boards. When I called Lorax, my salesperson **** asked why did we sign off on the job. That was when I realized my husband’s signature was forged. **** also said “why did I let the installer ***** install it the boards that way? “l replied,” I didn’t know part of my hiring you came with me being a foreman for the job.” **** offered a core tech mill representative to come assess our floor for the instillation, but since the forged document situation has ceased all communication. I am looking for financial retribution for the quality of floor I received and not have to rack up additional bills through litigation for either party.

      While a few of the employees were polite, the whole install was a disaster. We arranged a date for the floor installation and then a few days later I was told the flooring wouldn’t arrive until the day of the installation and I had to reschedule. That was my first inconvenience. The installers parked in front of my neighbor’s place even though parking was readily available in front of my house. They left trash all over, inside and outside. My white walls became a light brown. The installer said they would move my furniture back to its original locations. They put it back incorrectly after damaging my furniture. They put holes in my baseboard trim and blamed it on the rotten subfloor from previous water damage. Funny how those holes weren’t there a few weeks ago when the house was painted. They removed the toilet to do the bathroom floor and refused to put it back due to a leak even though they had called a plumber friend. I wound up having a filthy house and a non functioning bathroom. (I’m glad I took pictures of all the damage.) The real getter was when I called to report my concerns and was told that the installers said the wood was rotten before they started working. And that I would have to pay for the materials and labor to have them fix it. Absolutely not. I refused to pay to repair something that someone else damaged. At this point, I am done with the company. If they want to make restitution, reimburse me for the cost of repairing/replacing the damaged furniture, or otherwise compensate me for all the trouble, then I’m willing to listen. Otherwise I hope I never hear from them ever again.
