Ferguson Enterprises

The motto on their trucks state: "Nobody expects more from us than we do". This statement is a bad joke. Here are their service failures: 1) The salesman didn't know enough about the product line (Thermador) to ensure we had a complete order. We figured out on our own 5 months after the original order was placed that we needed a vent hood fan motor. When confronted by this error, the salesman blamed us (the customer) and basically laughed off any responsibility. His error delayed our project by almost a year.

In February 2022, my contractor ordered an ADA rated tub from Ferguson's Build.com website. The tub was installed in May, however, there were indents all around the top indicating that a piece was missing. The contractor contacted Ferguson, assuming it was a flange that was needed. As it turned out, the tub needed to be installed with a tub surround, which was not indicated in the Build.com on-line description or specifications. The only reference to the surround was in the comment section where someone asked if a surround was needed.

I scheduled an appointment in early January to all new appliances for my kitchen. This included refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, and cooktop. When picking out appliances with the sales associate I told her our need to receive appliances as soon as possible so we apparently only looking at “in stock” items. My husband and I paid for appliances and were given delivery date of 4/8. I called the associate on this day because I had not heard from them and was told that two of our items (refrigerator and oven) were not in yet and that she would check on items and give me a call back in a couple of days.

I ordered an appliance package from the Katy location last July 2021. I had the sales staff Nicholas and Matthew check inventory specifically for the range to make sure I build a package around a range that was in stock. Matthew checked the inventory and assure me the range was in stock and said everything else would be in by September. I ordered that moment.

I needed some fixtures for a bathroom remodel. Our contractor recommended Ferguson here in Lincoln NE. We had to make an appointment with the store so I called the # on the website. It went to a central operator who forwarded my call to a phone at the local store. That person was out of the office so I left a message to call me back to make an appointment. After about a week, we called again and had to leave a message with another sales person. Neither one contacted us back. I again called the central operator and explained how we had not heard back. She then contacted the first person I had left a message for and they called me back. When I questioned her about why no one had gotten back to me, she hung up on me.

All I wanted was a toilet seat that would match our old colored toilet. My simple order put the friendly helpful staff at the counter to the challenge! I brought the beat up old elongated seat and in addition to the counter man, a woman came up to assist with selecting the best match. The colored elongated seat had to be ordered, and would likely be here on less than a week. The cost, of the Kohler seat was approximately $42 on the order slip given to me, was compatible with Amazon online and Home Depot in Riverhead. I hear nothing and 8 days later, after a few calls (really not simple and possible to just speak to someone, anyone at Southampton Ferguson. Leaving my number to be called back did not work first time because when I got the call back from Virginia??? Without caller ID, I picked up and heard nothing and hung up.

I buy plumbing supplies and equipment from Ferguson on various occasions. Recently I visited and like usual the two employees I believe to be Ryan and Fred were there to greet me. I am not a professional plumber but I can do good work because I am meticulous when I want something done right. They are always polite and patient there, because I'm not always sure what I am looking for in application. They are responsive and knowledgeable to my plumbing or related needs. It really felt good on my last visit because they made a complicated task easier to complete. I would recommend these employees and their company to anyone for their products and service. Many Thanks.

Shady practices within Ferguson by the mgr who replace parts of customers Delta, Kohler etc products with cheap, faulty. Aug 26th 2021 your mgr replaced different style shower head cartridge that per your recommended plumber-did not fit again at the time of installation and he left my new delta shower head leaking and took that DIFFERENT STYLE CARTRIDGE to his home--without my knowledge---wrong practices at different levels--. I took hours of my time to HELP FERGUSON CLEAN UP SUCH SHADY MESS.

Repeated attempts to resolve product delivery with Client Services were unsuccessful. Promised call backs did not happen. Passed from person to person without resolution. Not meeting their promised delivery times resulted in delayed construction schedule.

After writing a review detailing my issues regarding my new Miele range, I was finally contacted by Ferguson and Miele. The issue was finally corrected. I was contacted by my salesperson (Roy, who has always been wonderful and professional) as well as Alysa ** to be sure I was satisfied. I was definitely satisfied with Ferguson and will continue to shop there however I don’t think I’ll buy or recommend Miele products.

I expend about $18,000 in appliances, first the appliances come too much later than promised, 2nd. after we paid and we have a problem because they send the wrong equipment, there are nobody that answer the phone. Nobody to talk to give us a solution. Our project of Kitchen remodeling is in the middle and can't be finish because they don't want to change the wrong item. Finally we have to go to another store and do a new purchase, and give away one of the Ferguson appliance.

We purchased all of our plumbing fixtures from the Ferguson facility in Coral Gables for a complete renovation of a condominium in Miami Beach. In total, we purchased about $35,000 of plumbing fixtures. Overall, we had a very poor experience with Ferguson. 1. Many of the products recommended by the salesperson ended up inadequate or not the best product for the purposes we described. We found our salesperson to be poorly trained and inexperienced. 2. We received a number of defective products. These are not necessarily Ferguson's fault, but when we asked for returns and replacements, we received virtually no support or help. We only received some attention after we threatened Ferguson and reached out to the general manager.

I bought a shower kit from Ferguson. The kit arrived with a component that wasn't needed for the particular kit. The plumber ended up installing the extra part (a diverter that diverts the water from the shower head to the hand-held shower). When the wall was tiled and was time to install all the trims, he realized there was no trim for that diverter and asked me to get it. When I contacted the company's brand, I was told that it was my plumbers mistake and they would not send me a trim for that part.

Purchased all our GE Monogram appliances from Ferguson in Reno, NV. Absolutely horrible experience. After (3) years the oven/ range has had to have been replaced by GE. (The self clean function does not work, overheats the unit & ended up burning up the motherboard/ computer.) Required 5 visits by the tech and multiple threats to get replaced. The dishwasher soap dispenser only opens about 60 % of the time (after running for 3 hours you have to start over.) The fridge/freezer combo is now not getting cold enough and the ice cream has the consistency of gravy. They promised to make a work order and have a rep reach out. Over a week and NOTHING!!! Then when you call 1-800 number after several prompts it just hangs up on you. Can't even make this stuff up! Spent almost 20k on garbage appliances and garbage service!!!

So my daughter and I bought a new house new construction with appliances that came from Ferguson. The microwave went out and stopped heating food and it was only 1 1/2 years old so I called to order a new one and have them install it for me. I wasn’t expecting them to give it to me and their sales contact Williams was very nice but said it’s a process they have to go through. He said they first have to send you a quote which will take a couple of days. Well it’s been several days and no phone calls. No quotes other than what they gave us over the phone. We agreed to pay for what he quoted over the phone but no you have to wait for a written quote. Apparently you sign and send back to them then at some point they contact you for payment and they schedule someone to come out and install and they couldn’t even tell me that.

We built a new "green" home in Santa Paula. By the recommendation of our architect, we purchased all our appliances, faucets, tubs, etc. from Ferguson in Santa Monica. All went well, Thermador appliances. I wanted a double wall oven but we were talked into a convection/steamer, sounded great, healthy cooking. They did not have one on the floor, nor did we get to see photos. I take the blame for not insisting. Again, all was well, deliveries fine. Flash forward....here are the complaints:

Ferguson Enterprises in Roanoke, VA has the most friendly and courteous sales and service representatives that I have had the amazing pleasure of dealing with in such a very long time. Everyone all the way to the person that first answered the phones every time I call, was so very nice and attentive to why I was calling and what I needed. All of them made me feel really appreciated as a customer and a person. There was not generic or fake service, no just putting on a smile, this was honest and true joy that you could here in the voices to please the customer. Thank you all for that breath of fresh air this morning. Keep up the good work and I look forward to talking to you all again soon.

Bought GE Monogram range and double ovens, which both went out before the first year was up (and we had a two-year warranty). Getting Fergusons to take care of it has been a nightmare. Bad service, no communication, no follow-through. Will never buy there again nor recommend to anyone!

I needed a 4 blade heat pump Exhaust Motor Fan with center bearing and adapter. Called 1st said bring old fan and come on down. In a matter of 10min. after arriving they had me a brand new Identical fan, out the door and on my way back home to install it. All 3 guys at the counter we nice and helpful and was 15min. to closing on a Saturday afternoon and were not pushy at all, took the time and care to help me, thanks Guys!!

We ordered our appliances about two months ago. Our project manager then gave Ferguson a 3 week notice that the construction would be ready for the appliance delivery this week. Nothing arrived. Our project manager called Again asking for the delivery date and it's still another week out. Such poor service after they were given ridiculously long lead time. Would NEVER suggest Ferguson to a friend!!

I purchased a discontinued Feiss mini chandelier floor model that was fully functional on display. They told me I could pick it up at a later date after they removed it from the ceiling display. I picked it up a few days later in a box labeled with another manufacturer (not the original packaging). When I attempted to install it, many hardware parts were missing and there were no instructions. After installation with materials that I had, only one of 4 halogen bulbs worked and one of the bulbs was broken off at the base. I had to replace 3 of the bulbs at a considerable cost. Ferguson personnel replaced the bulbs with non-functioning bulbs and didn’t mention that some of the hardware and instructions were missing. Very poor business practices in my opinion.

I started with Ferguson on a Wed. I spoke with Wilson in the Fort Worth showroom. He called and located one in the warehouse down in Houston. When he called back, he said if I ordered by 3:00, I would get the next day. I called back and left a message to place the order but he never returned my call. So at 2:09 I called again and spoke with Chelsea. She opened an account for me and stated she saw the duct on hold and would place the order. She would then email a tracking number.

I needed a 1-1/4” J-bend with captured slip nut for replacing a 1971 vintage lavatory trap on a wall-hung lav. My local Ferguson supply house in Kohler, w/c I didn’t have one, but they had a repair J-bend with an elbow that I could make work. My contractor cost was over $60 for this chrome plated, light-gauge, brass trap! Yesterday, after having installed this “priceless” waste pipe a couple days ago, I found one with the captured nut for just over $13 at Lowe’s in Manitowoc; the same size and of equal quality. Buyer beware!

Our real estate company ordered 2 faucets online. In our attempt to install them, we learned after 3 days making a multitude of phone calls, that Ferguson does not have an escutcheon that fits the faucets. A clerk in their Fort Myers store told us to bring them in and a VISA credit would be issued. But when we tried to return them (with our paper & order # in hand), we were told that their online computer system does not work with their store computer system and they would not be able to issue a credit.

I just want to say, this Ferguson in Burlington Mass showroom is the worst place to shop. The sales manager name Alia has no clue what customer service is. I was in the store about a year ago or so and met a wonderful lady name Susan who was the front desk coordinator. She ask this saleswoman on the floor to help me. I heard the saleswoman tell this lady, "NO. CAN'T you see I'm on LUNCH," inhaling a whole pizza I might add. Nevertheless this poor woman ask the manager to help me, and she told her to get my name and number. Are you kidding me, really Ferguson get a grip. Sales starts with the customers!!!! Thanks for nothing.

Documentation of the situation: Our Service/Installer for the Wolf Products (Jeff) informed me he was “out” indefinitely, and we had no idea that we had other options, which you provided after we asked. None of the appliances were registered, I had to do all of that work myself and I received even more warranty. Makes me wonder what else I am suppose to do. You sold us Electrolux products that are not serviceable in our geographic area, irresponsible to be sure. The dryer was broken, we put in a service call in early July. We chased the service call for several weeks, Ferguson Blue, Frigidaire, Electrolux, Ferguson Leaf? including to your level - and the amount of communication gap, who did you buy from? What is their contact info etc, was beyond reason.

My faucet developed a leak when shut off. Like most faucets the unit has a washer that is designed to create a tight shutoff. However, this washer it is not a standard washer, and is not available anywhere but at Ferguson (because PROFLO is a Ferguson company) and cannot be bought separately. In order to get the proper washer one is forced to buy a repair kit for $24.00 at Ferguson. So if you just need a simple 50 cent washer you are forced to spend $24.00. This is outrageous!!

I purchased and installed a water heater from Ferguson in April 2014. The water heater has a 6 year warranty, and it just failed April 2019. Now using my math that’s just 5 years. According to the Ferguson rep I called, the water heater is out of warranty because it sat in a warehouse for over a year before they sold it to me and the warranty is from the manufacture date. I have never heard of this practice. Ferguson has lost a customer and a reference.

Purchased a Jenn-Air gas downdraft cooktop. We paid for a pre-install visit to be certain that the product would fit in our current space and were provided a set of detailed installation instructions. It clearly illustrated a cooktop with the blower motor and plenum attached to the cooktop. The install team were told by Ferguson not to attach the motor or plenum to the cooktop as we would need a HVAC contractor to attach these two pieces even though they came in the book with the cooktop from Jenn-Air. The sales people stated that we would need to hire an HVAC contractor after the install arrived. Just so happens that Ferguson is a HVAC contractor. Misrepresented what we purchased.

Ferguson's advertised online price for a furnace transformer is $10.76, but you will pay $30.31 in the store. When I inquired about this discrepancy, I was told this was the penalty for "visiting the store in person." Unfortunately, my furnace died during a cold spell and I could not wait for the same part to be shipped from the countless suppliers who sell if for $10. Ferguson benefited from my immediate need for a transformer. When I politely questioned their practices, I was met with an abrupt, bewildering response. Shop at Ferguson at your own risk. I will choose not to.
