BEWARE

• Located in Ohio.
• Website http://www.qchi-ohio.com
• Owned by Edward Aldridge
• Phone numbers 440-891-9514 and 440-724-1909.

My experience with this company as of April 15, 2005.

• After 4 weeks our simple bathroom remodel is still far from complete.
• The tearout took a whole week.
• In the first 2 weeks they spent less than 50 man hours on the job.
• He's hard to get a hold of.
• He rarely answers his phone or returns messages.
• He rarely shows up when promised.
• He often takes 2 hour lunches and may or may not come back.
• He did not get permits for the work.
• His work is not up to code.
• It would seem little was planned ahead. Many days seemed a new adventure to ponder what to do next.
• He just quoted $800 to add electrical work that should have been anticipated from the beginning (a new circuit for the whirlpool tub). So we hired a real electrician to do it for $225.

May 4, 2005 update.

The door was installed a couple weeks ago. They did the baseboards at the same time. But didn't bother to actually nail them in. Ed promissed to fix the poor drywall taping job and hasn't. Window trim on the outside is still not installed, leaving the siding open to the weather. We decided to not have him redo the poor tile backsplash job for fear of making it worse and taking 6 months. We did most of the painting just to get it done.

Despite the job being unfinished they still sent someone over, unannounced (at 10:30PM!), to pickup a check for the remainder. It's not the first time they've shown up at the door unannounced at a late hour.

June, 2005 update.

Redid some of of the worse drywall areas. Now we have to repaint... Installed window trim. FINALLY took trash away.

Summary

We have been nothing but frustrated with this company's performance.
