      Status:
      Answered
      We hired A&I on 1/11/21 to remediate a water leak. We then paid our insurance deductible on 2/23/21 to A&I to go forward with the work and waited for a projected "Start" date. We had to move out of our home, so the hardwood floors could be removed and install the exact floor that we loved. On 3/4/21 we moved into a small condo with our two dogs. The house was packed out and all belongings were put in storage. We were told we would be out for SIX weeks, but it turned into Seven weeks. All work was subcontracted by A&I and the replacement floors were purchased by A&I. We finally returned home on 4/14/21. The new floors were a much lesser quality than we had previously. We then started to notice bubbling, cracking and lumps on the floors. We called A&I and asked that someone come take a look. A&I sent the flooring Installer out and he attempted to repair the defective flooring.. He agreed with us, that something was wrong with the flooring. A&I sent an independent inspector out on 9/24/21 after We left many messages and texts. I called the Independent Inspector and he said his report was emailed the very next day. We still follow up with A&I and nothing has been done as of today 10/25/21. Our calls go unanswered and the "Ill check on it" texts are not attended to. We just want our floors replaced and some one who cares about our on going stress trying to deal with A&I.

      We had a horrible experience with the A&I Restoration staff in **************** who were disorganized, dishonest, and discourteous. Over a five-month period, mistakes on their part delayed the house repair project by at least 30 days, and caused much confusion given their dismal communications where they seldom replied to emails, and if so, with insufficient details. The repair estimate alone had to be recalculated a few times after we identified several errors. (Note: We agreed to pay for an expense that was not to be charged to us so that progress could be made.). Early on, structural integrity concerns for this $10,000+ repair were raised by insurance adjusters and the county inspection office. Only after we asked about a final county inspection (as work was underway) did they acknowledge their mistake and then belatedly and begrudgingly sought a permit in midstream that took them over two weeks to obtain. During that period, work was stopped due to them failing the subsequent first inspection. The lead office manager, project manager, and estimator poorly communicated with us, the **** and the county inspection office who was astounded by this lack of professionalism and organization. Our trust in them was lost nearly right from the start and onto the final inspection that passed, fortunately. We requested and held meetings at their office to resolve their own issues (including making a final payment in full). Several retained emails among the above participants support the above deplorable circumstances. Beware and Avoid! - TJB
