I can tell you first that I have never liked dealing with sales people in my home because they want to oversell everything!! I know why I ask for them to come and I don't need the whole spiel!! Vito was the greatest salesperson ever. Not only did he sell me easily but his whole personality was wonderful to be around. I always ask how long it will take for this or that because I have better things to do! Well I can tell you that Vito could have spent the whole day at my house. Your company is lucky to have him. A very personable guy and passionate about his work. I love that. The guys who did the install were also great guys. So kind and considerate of you and your time. It was all around a wonderful experience and I would not just recommend you, I will praise your company and the people you have working for you. Thank you for a very enjoyable Saturday afternoon and Monday as well.

We were at an art show and there's a little contest where you spend for free credit. It was a part of Home Makeover Systems' sales pitch and we ended up having someone come over to do a presentation. The paint job is supposed to be an insulation job and it's supposed to bring our power bills down. It hasn't and that's after spending $10,000 worth of work done. The house looks great, they did a fantastic job on it, they came out very quickly, but we paid ten times as much as what a basic paint job would be.
Instead of having one overall job for the house with a single payment, I have two separate jobs with two separate payments: one that I've already started at 6% interest rate for $2,000 insulation job, and another which is going to start in around 18 months at an unknown interest rate for $8,000. There's a huge difference between the 5% and 17% interest rates, especially on something that large. I'm hoping that when I have to refinance it, it will work out. I'm left in the dark so I got to keep an eye on the credit and find another creditor. I thought it was going to be one set of payment for the entire job but I understand why he did it that way because the finance department came up with different account numbers for different jobs that happen on different days, and they have to put everything together. The quality of the work was good but I wouldn't recommend it to everyone.

We had water purification through Home Makeover Systems. We were happy with the sales pitch and the information they gave us when they came out. But now, we are not happy with any of the home products that they gave us. It's become five years of soaps that we can't use because none of them are anywhere near the standards that they promised. And it almost seems like every bottle is the same thing - they just relabeled it. I can't use it to wash dishes and I absolutely would not use the shampoo to even wash my hand. However, the installation was great. They actually did it faster than promised. The water is great but the products that came with it are not.

We had Home Makeover did the aluminum or attic installation. Their sales rep was pretty good and informative. He gave us all the information on the products and what it will and will not do. He did inform me of the product lines that the company offered though I was not interested in any other products at that time and still not interested in anything else. The installation team were also friendly. They answered all our questions and did everything that they were scheduled to do on a timely basis. They were very quick in completing their task. The quality of the work is good and it seems to have worked for a little while. But these extreme temperatures, there's nothing that could really cut the heat in the attic. But when the weather was a little cooler, it did work well.

I went to a show and there was a booth for the public, I signed and that's when somebody from Home Makeover Systems came over. My most recent purchase using them was a water system. When I have them, everything is a whole lot better. The sales representative was okay and the installation guy was very nice. He wanted to make sure I got what I paid for and that I knew how to use it. He was very, very professional. Overall, the experience was okay but they told me that I would be getting free soap for four years and I have just two dishwasher in washing the plate and because of that, I don't wanna recommend them.

Hi June,
My name is Anouska, I am the new manager for consumer relations at Home Makeover Systems. I see that you are happy with your water system, but you aren't satisfied with the soaps. Is it that you haven't received them, or you just don't care for them? Please let me know so that we can make sure that you are 100% satisfied with your purchase.

I love the water purification system I purchased recently from Home Makeover Systems. However, interacting with the sales rep was a little difficult. When I was buying the product it got slow when we got to pricing. It was a long negotiation and felt like a car dealership. Furthermore, I remember the salesperson telling us we can install the product anywhere, but when the installer came, he said that's not true and I didn't get to place it where I want to. But the installer was very knowledgeable and gave us the best recommendation that he could. I also had trouble when my referral credit was going to be denied. I got hold of the owner yesterday and made sure it got corrected, but it wasn't after numerous calls and aggravations with the staff.

One of Home Makeover Systems' client referred them to me. It was through her positive comments that made me decide to go for their services. Their sales rep came to our home and gave us about an hour and a half presentation and was able to answer all of our questions. For the questions she couldn't answer, she had someone she could call and get the answers quickly. She did a good job overall. The people in their installation team were also courteous, cleaned up after themselves, and did a good job. They were easy to work with, fast, and were able to work with our timetable. We had them put in a water purification system and it's of excellent quality. We're very happy with them.

We just moved into the house and thought it would be a good idea to have the system. We had the water test. So far, I like quality of the water purification system. You can really feel the difference. The water's a lot softer but we haven't been there long enough to really have an in-depth experience with it, but so far it's been good and we're pleased. The sales rep was also so impressive and was one of the reasons we went ahead and did it. He was exactly the right person to sell it to us. The installation team were great. They were focused on getting it done. I appreciated the fact that they weren't chatty and they just got right to the task, and were very well-informed and just paying attention to the job. Home Makeover was better than I expected.

We wanted a purifier in our home and Home Makeover Systems was at an event that we were at. The sales representative was nice, and we set up a time for them to come. The system is great. However, the installation team sucked. First, it extends all the way back from the information to the financing that we had secured. They were told that I was not going to be able to be present during the install, but my husband was going to be there. They said "no problem." They showed up at my house, then gave my husband a hard time because he was no longer on the financing and he couldn't find any of the documentation which is incorrect.
Secondly, they had to drill through my wall in order to get the hose connected outside. And rather than drilling from the outside in, they did it through my drywall and blew out my concrete on the outside of my home. They had to patch it which looked like crap. Then I had to wait for them to come back and paint it and then I find out that I have a flood in my garage. They fixed everything and did what they were supposed to do, but as far as the installation itself, I'm angry and would never recommend them. And I never got my manual for my system.

Afterwards they contacted me to come and show me what they had and validate my cruise. Sales representative was nice and very sweet. After she showed me the water treatment system, I went ahead and purchased it. The gentleman who installed it was very nice and friendly too.
I would recommend Home Makeover Systems. They were very easy to work with and their water treatment system although I've only had it for a week and a half or so seems to be doing really well.

Home Makeover Systems offered a free water sample so I just decided to go with it. Recently, we purchased a home water filtration/softener system from them. I feel really good about the quality of the product. Everything went well with that aspect. The installation guy was phenomenal, extremely thorough and patient even if we had a lot of questions. He took his time and did it right.
I think one thing that they need to be more upfront about is when the salesperson is selling the product, he needs to make sure that the consumer knows the total in-cost, not just the base price. This is because when I'm buying a product or when somebody's buying a product, a lot of times that becomes an issue. I think he did kind of an injustice by not disclosing some of the extras that were gonna be needed to pay after the fact. However I'm still satisfied and happy with the product. I would have been much happier had he disclosed all of that upfront, and I think most people would feel the same.

I wasn't really happy with the after-effects. I love the system, but Home Makeover told us that we were going to get what we did not get. We were told that they would come out and deliver the salt and also that they would come out every six months to check everything, make sure it's working, and change the computer parts if needed. So we called for salt the other day, to find out there's a $77 charge for a bag of salt. Never once did they say at a fee. They also never told us it was for one year only. But the system is fine. It's doing its job and that's what I wanted.

The insulation installed by Home Makeover seems to be what they said it's going to be. So far it's much more comfortable. The sales rep was very nice and knowledgeable. It wasn't as quick a process as we were originally led to believe. They said they would only be here for about half an hour but they were here for over two hours and we couldn't discuss privately what we wanted to do, whether we wanted to do it or not. We did feel a little bit pressured but we did it anyway. The installation team was very nice. They cleaned up after themselves. However, I felt rushed during the process. After the whole thing took place, next day they were coming to do this, and I have a three-day contract wherein if I wanted to back out of it I could, but I wasn't given that opportunity. I would have backed out only because I thought it was too expensive after I really sat down and thought about it. So in that respect, I don’t feel that good about this process.

I wouldn't recommend them to anybody even though we like their product. If we have known the company that was involved in, which was Southern Florida Water or something like that, we would not have bought because we did have dealings with that company before regarding the water and we were not happy. Home Makeover in reality misrepresented who they were. After the actual payment, that's when we found out who we were really doing business with. We've had several phone calls from Home Makeover Systems and others associated with them. We get two calls within 15 minutes and my wife told them we’re not interested. 15 minutes later we get another call back. I have enough with this company.

Hi Ron,
My name is Anouska, I am the new director of consumer relations for Home Makeover Systems.
I would like to apologize for any negative experience that you had with our sister company Great Southern Water. In 2011 we added the name Home Makeover Systems to represent two other brands that we added to our company: exterior coatings and attic insulation. It wasn't our intention to misrepresent ourselves or mislead customers. Our 30 year old company is growing and we needed to add another division in 2011.
We would appreciate another opportunity to show you that we are a reputable company which strives for 110% customer satisfaction. As your system is almost due for annual maintenance, I would like to offer you a complimentary service. Please contact me if you would like to set something up.
Thank you,

During a presentation at a festival at Lake Eola in Orlando, the representative said that if his company could make a presentation at my condo (I pointed to the condo 1/2 block away), Home Makeover Systems would pay for a free 2-day cruise to the Bahamas, including taxes and port charges. I called Home Makeover Systems today because I could not register online for the cruise as directed.

I think that I may have overpaid for the coating that I bought from Home Makeover System. But the paint seems to be fine, I think it's going to be okay. At first, there were some repairs that had to be made. If my son-in-law had not been here to help look at them and to say that's not going to work, I may have had some work done that would not have been adequate. There's one thing though, I was told by the sales reps that they would be here to oversee the job and they would see that it was done just the way it was done, and I haven't seen them since.

The sales representative from Home Makeover explained their product, the features and benefits. However the installation team needed to come back three times, which was a little bit concerning. The manager came out a couple times and supervised them on the last so I would say the installation was kind of a hiccup in the process. It was just little bit more hassle than we were prepared for. Although they were definitely responsive and tried to fix things, I think there should have been more oversight on the installation from the company. You expect not having to crawl around in your own attic and uncover everything that they didn't do right. With the product and the price, people expect the job done right.

Things just kind of fell together for me and Home Makeover Systems. By the time they reached me over phone sales, I had already been looking in the area. I think the quality is good but it took some doing to get it there. I had to do a lot of the stuff that the sales representative promised to do on my own, which really upset me. It was like they took the lighting and all down, and I wound up putting some of it back myself. I had surveillance cameras. I told them I would take care of those, because that’s on me. The wires were hanging out. They spray painted them. I had to cut them off and put new ends on it.
Also, I was promised on the sales call and in writing that I would get a 25-year warranty; I've called back several times and I still have not seen my paperwork. I was also supposed to get a gift certificate for Outback worth 50 bucks but I haven't seen that one either. Now I can't get anybody to answer my calls at this time. I would really like to get the paperwork straightened out so I got something to stand on in case it does go bad.
This is really unfortunate since I think the quality of their work is good. The people that actually came out here and did the initial work where they replaced all the woodwork were superb. The painters had to come back several times, though. So with all of these, I'd say I'm kind of on both sides of the fences with regards to Home Makeover Systems.

Home Makeover Systems came and did some installation towards our garage and around our solar water heater. It's pretty decent and it's doing its job. For my husband the bill for the job was worth it and the decision to have them come and do it was his. He decided it because I thought it was a good idea since basically there was gonna be insulating and we needed to have the garage insulated anyway. However, they offered us to have a system to place on our outside unit to assist us with the electricity and water heater monitoring and it wasn't available anymore. So they gave us a check for $100 and they promised him a loan that was zero down and zero payments for 18 months and instead he got a loan that was 5%, but he did have to start paying money right away. They gave him $300 check for that since it was a mistake on their part for both the paperwork and filing.
When they came to our home I told them that they needed to call me before they arrive at our home because I work as a yoga instructor and they were planning on coming a couple of minutes right after I was able to show up to home. They were waiting for me when I got home and they've been waiting for approximately 15 minutes. No phone call, no nothing. If they would have called me, I would have told them to come at 1:30 because I have a class from noon to 1:00. It takes me 20 minutes to drive from my class to come home. It was just a surprise that they didn't call me at all.
Home Systems promised my husband that they were gonna give him a Lowe's gift card, and the installation team was told to give him a Lowe's discount card and they were like, "Well, we don't get paid until we do this system, and we haven't gotten paid yet. So I can't afford getting you one." So the supervisor has to go back to the office, get the Lowe's card and bring it back to my husband. It just seemed very disorganized. We've had a phone call last week from someone following up, asking us did we receive certain information or paperwork because the paperwork was not completed on the marketer's part that came over.

And when they arrived the following day and I found out it really wasn't from the electric company, but they acted like they were kind of associated with them, he said that he could still save us some money on our electric bill. And so we let him come in and talk to us, and he sold the product. He was a very good salesman. And I'm hoping that it will save me money on my electric bill but I don't know that it will.
The guys that came to do the painting were fine. The first time they came, unless I walked around with them, they didn't cover up any chips or any cracks or anything like that. And the guy that come to sell us the product, he said they were gonna fix it where there wouldn't be any chips, there wouldn't be any cracks in the vinyl. They would do any repair work that needed to be done to make it all look like new. They were gonna paint the framing on the door and put the frame around our door because it was missing.
But when I went out there and talked to the guy that was doing it and I pointed out there's a hole, I said, "There's a hole, you need to putty." He said, "I've never, ever had to do this before for anybody." So I came in and I got the contract and I showed him what had been wrote down that Shane said they were gonna do. So he did it but he missed some, and so I had to have him come back and redo some, and Shane came out here with him. That's the reason I'm not real happy with Home Makeover. It's not worth what I paid for it.

My husband had been wanting a water softener for some time and the salesperson from Home Makeover Systems was the first who ever came out and talked to us about a water softener in many years. He presented the product in a good way. He very appreciated my husband's military service and I think he gave us the best deal and it looked like a good product so we bought it. He was very good.
I wasn't here when the installation team arrived, my husband was. But it seemed like a very straightforward installation. My husband didn't have any complaints. The salesman had figured out prior to them coming exactly where the system was going to go and they were only here about a couple hours. When I came home, everything was cleaned up and seemed to be good. We called to get our free products and they were delivered. Everything seems to be going well and we are very happy with their water system.

I had a already gotten a couple of estimates on painting my house and different things. The front of my house had some wood that needed to be replaced because it was rotting. There were just a couple of different things that I knew would cost me more money in the long run. Since I'm retired and I had no intentions of doing any work myself, I decided to have Home Makeover do it. Everything came out really wonderful after the make over. They fixed the front where the wood was rotting. I was happy with the work and the warranty that I don't have to do anything. Everyone was nice and polite.

I had Home Makeover Systems do the paint job for my trailer. The quality was fine but the people that were here to paint it sucked. He didn't like taking directions from me. When I asked him to fix something, he would do it very reluctantly. I was not happy with him at all and there was supposed to be a supervisor right here every day checking on him and that never happened. And I haven't heard from him since.
The first guy who showed up teaches guys how to use the paint. He was very nice, looked over the place and says, "Yeah, they can do this." A lot of the things that he said that they were going to do was not passed on to the foreman. The painter didn't get all the instructions. I had shutters for the trailer and trim on the top that needed to be painted and I know the foreman told them to paint the shutters and the trim that goes the top of the trailer and he tried to forget it and when I reminded him, he very reluctantly did it and it wasn't a very good job. I'm going to have to repaint them. I paid for that paint and was going to take it back to the factory. They got rather upset about that but they didn't give me the paint. They just kind of throw it out and it's a good thing I did keep it because there's a couple of places that I got to fix and I don't want them coming out to fix it. I haven't heard from them since. They never came to the final inspection.

I got a postcard in the mail from Home Makeover Systems when I moved in to Groveland, Florida from New York. They offered me a gift card and I couldn't stand the taste of the water that was coming out of my tap so I was interested in looking into a purification system. Long story short, I bought the purification system and I am happy enough with the quality. I had real trouble in the beginning but they sent somebody out and they had to change the filter (the filter was bad and the water coming out of my tap looked like chocolate) and so far the water purification system is okay. However, everything else is bad. I’ve been made a lot of promises. None of which has ever come true except the installation of the apparatus itself.
The sales representative was pretty friendly. He left me a cellphone number to contact him if I had any questions. But I have called that number 3 times and he has never returned my call. I was also promised a $50 gift card to Target to make up for another water purification presentation I had scheduled later in the week and I was supposed to get a $50 gift card originally from the visit. I was told I would get a shower head. I was told I would get books for discounts at supermarkets, and I was told I would get detergents and soaps and none of that has ever arrived and yet the date is almost 4 weeks old. So I've called, I've talked to Home Makeover Systems 3 times and they said they would get back to me but nobody ever had. So, I'm missing all of the incentives.
Also, the letter I got from Green Sky gives me information about the 18 months in which I have no payment required and the Sales Representative never told me that I was being charged interest during that time.
As for the installation team, I had an appointment for 1 o'clock. I got home at 1:20. They had drilled through the side of my house. They were planning to put it on the outside which is not allowed by my HOA. So, they had to regroup and redo. They were friendly enough but they came early and started without anybody here. I was not happy with that. They left a patch at the side of my house and I have yet to find the correct paint to cover it over.

I got a phone call from someone, from the Marketing arm. Big company is in Longwood, Florida and I live in Maitland, which is a suburb. My air conditioning guy is a big proponent of insulation. He had said "You know, now that you have this new air conditioner, you need to protect it by getting insulation." So I had the insulation put in my attic by Home Makeover Systems. The installation team and the sales representative were very pleasant and cordial. Everything was done very well. No complaints. The installation team was in and out really quickly. I thought it would take a little bit longer but they were done fast. Their work was excellent, very good. I could actually tell relatively quickly after the installation was done that it was cooler because I live in a condo so it's upstairs and the air is circulating. The air in the first floor is moving around. It was very noticeable. And I'm not inclined to put the air conditioner down to 73.
The only issue is I had contacted the company in Longwood and asked them if they would send me a piece of the material. Cause I live in a condo and I'd like to show it to my neighbors. I'm actually on the board of our condo association, and I still haven't gotten anything. I could easily give them a call again and I will, but it would be nice if I had a piece that I could show people. The company in Longwood needs to pay a little bit more attention to their marketing.

First, they promise you a dinner for two gift card that was supposed to be given to us at the day of the sale. Then it was supposed to be given to you after they install it, and later it was going to be when the gentleman came over to go over the finance papers with you, but he never showed up. He gave the guy who installed the system the paperwork and I had to rush through that because we were supposed to do that at 6 o'clock in the evening and we had other things to do at the time. Somebody eventually called me back and went over it.
The gentleman setting it up was great. The people who put it in were great. Certain things didn't come through and weren't exactly what the guy told me I was going to get. Point-wise, I should be getting everything I’m getting now for nothing from what he was saying. We just got our gift card the other day that we were supposed to get when we first set up and it was a $25 gift card - lunch for two. Other than that, my biggest thing would be to contact your customers a little bit, not just contact them until you get the accounts. Once the credit was done and you got your system and the finance papers are done, then you didn't hear from them at all.
The water is fine but with that kind of money, I figured somebody would call you back in a week or two. I was constantly calling them to try to get somebody through to figure out what we were doing with our card and the other parts of the financing. We finally got it all about straightened out now except for the point system stuff yet. I’m still trying to figure that out why we didn't get what we were promised. The system is fine. Except for now, I've got somebody coming over because it went crazy yesterday. The timer or the counter on it was just spinning out of control and erratic.
I wouldn't recommend it to anybody unless the thing got straightened out. There are systems out there about the same for almost half the price. We needed something as my water was pretty bad so I had to get it going and went into it without doing a whole bunch of research. Once the money was taken, as far as everything was done, I felt like I was forgotten about. Customer service is everything. I know it is where I work at.

The man who installed it was friendly and he explained what we had to do to check it. But we had some problem when the man came for us to sign the contract. They made some errors on it and I wanted it to be fixed and they didn't want to fix it. I told him, “If you were on my position and you wanted something, you spend money on it, you want the thing to be done right.” And when I was telling them that no, I refuse to sign the contract if it was not fixed, the man even wrote down that I was hostile! But I didn’t get nasty with him and I wasn’t cursing. So I said to him, “That wasn’t very nice of you, what you put down on that piece of paper.”
So then they called somebody. They fixed it. I finally got it done. But now they sent me a letter saying that they sold my contract to another company for me to send the payment. So then two days later, another company sent me a letter saying that I have a certain amount of money allocated for my account. I called them and I said, “What is this?” and she said, “No, you bought something.” I said, “Yeah, but I already have somebody, another company that I’m supposed to be paying this for.” They said they were going to delete it... so I guess it was deleted.
One other thing that I still haven’t resolved was I’m supposed to be getting some products. The girl that came to sell me the water purifier told me that I could send for some products. So I called them, because I wanted to know am I paying for this thing or it was a promo that they’re not going to give me. The lady on the phone said, “Okay. I’m going to put you with the right person and they’ll be able to help you.” Then somebody picked up the phone. He says, “Okay, the girl is busy right now.

Somebody from Home Makeover Systems called and my wife talked to them about the attic insulation that we had been meaning to do. The salesperson Chris came by and discussed the heat barrier and painting with us. However, there were some things that he should have told us but didn't and should have done but didn't. There was a big problem with getting it done and little things that I'm not happy about. For one, they owe me a monitor for the light meter. They told me it would be two weeks but it has been a month already and I haven't heard anything yet. I feel there were some things that were done sloppily and it was a hurried job because of the weather.
They didn't give me any papers designating what to paint and there was conflicting connections between the contractors. I don’t know whose fault that really is but they ought to have a better program in knowing who is doing what and why so that when the guy comes here, there are no discretionary problems with the customer. That was one of my biggest problems. When I added something to the paint project, the contractor got a little upset. He wasn't belligerent with me but you could just read his body language that he was not happy with it. The fellows who did the window film were good and respectful. They told me the people installing the heat barrier would be here at a certain time frame but it took them about six hours later to come and then they worked until 11 o'clock at night which was a big inconvenience for us. I had asked them to come the next day to do it but they didn't want to come back and insisted on doing it right away.
I feel that my air conditioner is running less than it was and I hope it is. It is quite a chunk of money to put out for something if you aren't going to get any benefit from it.

With Home Makeover Systems, everything's fine. The sales representative just called me and they were just talking about the energy-saving thing. They were very polite and professional. I thought about it for a while, then I had them come out and talk to me about it. It sounded like a good deal. Then the installation team came to my house They installed the energy stuff in my attic and on my garage door and they wrapped my pipes and my hot water heater and everything with their reflective stuff. They seemed very nice. I actually was working and my son was here while they were putting everything in, but everybody was nice. I came back home, talked to the guy, made the final purchase and checked everything. He was very nice, and I was very satisfied.
The only thing is that the panels on my garage door are so off, but they left the can of spray adhesive so I just sprayed and stuck it back on. I don't know if they meant to leave it but I think they accidentally did but it was there so I just used it. Overall, it was a good experience.

I decided to have Home Makeover Systems redo our attic and the water heater. I asked them to paint the outside of the house and do the four windows in front of the house. They came out on a Monday. I was home by myself with three kids, one of them was seven months old, and so I had my hands full. I had to sign papers before everything was done and I didn’t realize they weren’t supposed to move stuff. That was my job but nobody told me that was going to happen. The guys said, “Don’t worry. We’ll help move everything.”
At first, I was very excited about it. They painted and everything looked very nice and good. But then, on the papers, it asked, “Did they move everything back where they found it?” Since they told me to sign the papers before it was all done, I checked, “Yes,” because I assumed they would move everything back. But that did not happen. Like the back porch that they used, everything’s still thrown in the middle of the porch. Nothing was moved back where it was. It’s still like that because until the kids go back to school, I can’t get out there and work and get everything moved back.
Everything was done within the week. They were in and they were out. However, I’m not sure about the quality of the shingles and wood they put in the attic because our utility bill did not go down. It actually went up. However, we did put up an above-ground pool, so we’re giving the makeover some time to see how the bill looks with it. Maybe the bill went up because of the pool and running the pumps.
The Home Makeover people were all very nice. The salesman was very nice but a lot of what he had told me wasn’t true. He had mentioned that financing was only going to be run through one company and yet I’ve already gotten two letters from two other companies were the financing went through also. I’m just letting it go because for me, it’s just not worth the hassle. There were a few lies that I had caught him in but, I guess, it’s because he’s a salesman and that’s what salesmen do to sell their products. He had said our payments wouldn’t increase. This is what it will be from here on out. And then when we got the papers to sign them, the payments will be this for the first year and then it increased higher. So that was a lie, too.
If I had to do the renovation over again, I probably wouldn’t just because now we are $** in debt and we weren’t beforehand. And our utility bills are still the same, if not higher. I feel we just put ourselves further in debt.

Had a great experience with Home Makeover Systems. The only problem we had is they couldn't put the water softener where we wanted it due to the strange plumbing that we have. It was kind of confusing and they didn't have a whole lot of choice, but my husband had a few suggestions and they listened to him. So they worked together with my husband and me to get it installed the way we wanted it and we were happy with it. We called them about two weeks later to do an adjustment, and they showed up probably not a day later they came out. They were all very friendly and helpful. Anytime we had a question, they were quick to answer it. They took any suggestions that we might have.

I’ve been thinking about redoing our bathroom in our old trailer for the last six years. The bathroom had pressed wood and it was starting to crumble. We went to Wal-Mart and Home Makeover Systems had a bathroom display there with the showers and tubs. I filled out one of the little paper surveys that they had there and threw it in a dish and then they got in contact with us. I finally decided to do it. We had a new bathroom redone and got a big hot water heater put in the laundry room. Home Makeover got it done, but we haven’t used it yet because we left. It would be nice when we get back, going home to a nice new bathroom versus the old one.
Our interactions with Home Makeover’s sales rep was absolutely awesome. I’d recommend him to do anybody’s home. The installation team was thorough. They cleaned up after themselves. The workers were fine, but Bryan was number one for workmanship and personality. He was a great person. He felt good enough about his workers’ professionalism to leave and do errands. I have already mentioned Bryan to some of my friends, that if they decide to have their bathrooms done, they know who to get.

He seems to really know everything about everything, was easy to talk to, big fun and entertaining. I had lots of advice about all of our projects, not just this one, so I like him a lot.
With the installation team, at first we were not pleased because they didn't come with their supervisor, but they did good work and the supervisor came by later and we were satisfied with their work. My mother was actually home when they came but she said that they were the best workers. Sometimes workers don't respect your stuff but she said as far as workers, they seemed really conscientious, and one of the better worker interactions we've had.

I was looking around for a way of doing my mom's bathroom because she needed a handicap bathroom. She's not able to take a shower by herself, and our particular shower was too small because there wasn't enough room for us. Her particular shower had a garden tub and there was no way she could get into that. I happened to go into Walmart and Home Makeover Systems had a bath set up in there. I took one of their cards and I called them.
I actually had them come out when I was on vacation so I could be there. My mom is 94, so I wasn't sure with them being there, how she was going to come in my bathroom. They talked to us every day to tell us how the work was going and showed the details and made sure they could measure where the handle bars and things were going to go. They were very nice and very friendly and I would recommend them. I even told them that if I got any more work that I want them too. I want Denny and Brian to come out and do the work.
The material is great and there are a lot of choices. Both my mom and I have problems with vertigo so we can't have anything with checkerboards or anything like that because it makes you dizzy. They fixed it up and picked out beautiful stuff. I know it's a mobile home that I have it put in but I do not regret it at all. They helped get the financing, because I tried to get it through my bank and because of it being a mobile home, they wouldn't go on with that. If it hadn't been for the Home Makeovers, I wouldn't be able to get it done.
Everything is great. They're going to come back out to tighten the faucet on my shower. When I got hers on, mine broke down so I had to use hers and it was like being in a motel room. It's so much different and so nice. And even the shower heads that were installed were so much better than what we had, and I would have never figured out what kind would have worked as good as what they picked out for us. They took into consideration everything that my mom needed and the placing of the faucet and everything else; it was just so professional and so personal that it was awesome.

I actually regret doing the windows because they charged me two grand and they told me that it would make a huge difference, and it really didn't at all. But it is what it is.
The sales representative was actually great. As far as the technicians that came over, they were a little messy. They came a little bit unprepared.

We had bought a few homes and we were trying different systems and different stuff, different cleaners and everything. I’m very happy with everything and I was really surprised at some of the stuff the sales representative was telling me about, because I just heard it from my husband who had been a chemist. We talked.
The thing that hit me the most is the water system, because of the baby. At the time he was only 8 months old and now he’s 11 months old, I worry about all the chemicals that are out there. We were using non-living chemicals and stuff, oils and cleaners which are just more expensive. My daughter-in-law was a distributor for them at one time but she has since stopped because it’s getting too expensive, we couldn't afford it anymore. I don’t have a computer so I can’t do any research; she does when she has time. The gentleman was very pleasant and very forthcoming with things.

Now since I have Puronics, it's a whole different world. Nice tasty water, my body feels a big difference now with the water that doesn't leave streaks. And a big good thing is that the plumbing in the house will be protected against getting clogged. My wife is also happy because her hair feels the softener.

We had the Attic Shield installed about two months ago. I'm not sure if we called about it or saw it advertised or what. It might be at that home fair in Kissimee.

Everybody was friendly in the whole situation - the salesman and the supervisor who followed up and came by to see us. Everything was going all right.
I can't really tell yet if there's a difference as we haven't lived here that long. We've just been here about a year. So we don't have any past bills to compare because the house was empty before we came here.
On the other hand, It appears like it was really expensive when we got into it and we didn't realize she was trying to sell the stuff. But then when they went to install it, it only took them three hours to do it and it seemed like we paid that much for all of that unless that shield is really, really expensive. Because labor wise, there were only a couple of men and they were finished in not any more than three hours.
They were here a long time trying to convince us. That's kind of part of salesmanship, I guess. And we did end up getting it but it was a long time for a salesman to be with us and try to talk us into getting it.

I give it a 5 and I got a friend of mine who wants it put in his house.

We got the water purification system from Home Makeover Systems about a month ago. I got a paper over the mail offering me some rolls of paper towel and that's how I heard about them. This salesperson showed me how dirty my drinking water was. He was very knowledgeable and very courteous and we appreciated him showing us all the impurity and that's why we got the system. I was drinking bottled water. Now, the water tastes different like having drunk water from the fountain. And yeah, when we take a bath, our skins are softer. I'm very happy having the water system. I recommended it to a friend and she said she was going to look into it.

We met them at a home fair or we went in their home fair booth and picked up their information and called them and asked them to come out and give us an estimate on the installation of the attic shield. The salesperson seemed pretty knowledgeable and answered all our questions. It seemed like it was one of the things where you had to do it right then or not do it at all. I kind of would have liked to have had time to think about it a little more probably but I'm not unhappy with the decision that I made.
The installation people did a great job. They cleaned up. The only interaction I had with them was basically to let them in the house and show them where things were at but they didn't speak any English at all and I don't speak Spanish. So it was one of those things where there wasn't a lot of communication.
With the shield being in the house, it feels as though it's cooler to us. But as far as savings on the bill, I really couldn't say that that's happened yet. But I would definitely recommend Home Makeover Systems. It was a very positive experience and I'm very pleased and satisfied with the option that we chose.

I purchased the Attic Shield in April. I've been thinking about it for a couple of years because my house was always so hot and the air conditioner was always running. And I had an appointment with this other company who were marketing through my store (I work at Walmart), and they canceled on me twice.
So the second time, I got a little upset and I went online and I started researching companies and I contacted this girl and she gave me the name of Home Makeover. So I called them. And they called me right back and made an appointment that afternoon. The salesperson was very nice. He came over right on time, sat here with me in the house, explained everything to me, and answered my questions about any concerns that I had or anything. And we made the appointment for the installation the next day.
The installation team, the guys that did the film on the lanai windows, were excellent. They were telling me as they were doing it what they were doing, what they were using and everything. And the guys up in the attic were fast and they cleaned up after themselves.
The home temperature is cooler definitely and the air conditioner doesn't run all day like it used to even though I have it on 70 or 80 degrees where it just runs intermittently. I recommended them to a couple of friends but they're kind of waiting for the summer to see what my system does. So far, I told them the last two electric bills that I had are lower and I'm going to keep monitoring it and I'll let them know. It is excellent and I'm very happy with it.

We found out about the Attic Shield from a home decorating fair that they had here in town in Heritage Park and we thought we might give it a try to see if the insulation would help and improve our little situation at home. But it was just a try. We had it installed about a couple of months ago. Honestly speaking, the workers were fine. Everybody was congenial. Their salesman was a little over pitched but other than that, everything was okay. And unfortunately, we don't really see a big change in what it did, plus my wife thought it was a little bit too expensive. Wifey feels it's not helping any but for me, it's too early to tell.
I guess I would have to do a little better research on it before I just dive into something. But I can't say that it's been a bad experience because it's not as great as we thought it would be but I can't really say that it's that bad either. Like I said, it's still too early for me to really give a good impression.

I first heard of HomeMakeover at a festival. Well, he said the Attic Shield was going to save me money for my light bill. I had it installed back in January but they haven't saved me any money. My light bill is still the same. I paid like about $20 more than my brother who lives next door and he got a bigger house than me and a bigger air conditioner. I've always paid more but I'm still paying more. I had expected to save money like the man said but I haven't. I'm angry.

I just purchased a home and I received a postcard in the mail about something to do with water and I thought it was the water company and they were offering that. Home Makeover Systems set up a sales thing with me, a pretty good pitch. That's how I ended up with the water softener system. I don't know if the salesperson was new. I mean, a couple of things that he told us weren't true. We thought we asked a 30-day trial and after they installed it, they billed us. So I was so upset about that in a way. I didn't know what I could possibly do about it then.
From my understanding, you could tell a difference. I mean, the guy told us a bunch of stuff. One of the main reasons I got it was because I got a teenage daughter and he claimed that it would clear her skin up, and it didn't. And then my family got dry hair from the water. They explained to me that it would be extremely noticeable of a difference and I haven't personally noticed anything different. I mean, yeah, there's a little difference because there's this in there.
I was lied to about the whole time. I was really pissed about the 30-day thing and I'm dissatisfied with it.

Something came in the mail that caught my interest and I called Home Makeover Systems and a young man came in response to whatever free thing they had offered if you called them for something, I think. I really don't remember. And he came in and he demonstrated the water purification system - what the change in the water would do. And since I was already having a hard water problem as the water was harsh and I was filtering it and all sorts of things, I said, 'You know, this might help.' And I've got a toddler in the house. So that's how I decided to purchase the system.
He was a very personable young man and he didn't try to over please or treat us like idiots. He had a lot of respect and he knew his product. He was new to this company, I believe, but when negotiation time came, he had to call the company because I could not afford the price that he quoted. I would not have purchased it at that price because I don't buy what I cannot afford. But he got somebody else who was qualified to help with the negotiations and I was able to afford something.
Two people came to install it. A gentleman came to install it, a plumber apparently, and locating the water source was difficult because he said normally the water comes into houses through the garage but mine didn't. Mine came in through the back wall of the kitchen. So he had to install it on the outside of the house. That's the one thing about the system I'm a little uncomfortable with because I don't think it's truly secure from tampering only because it's not within a locked garage. But that's not their fault. They worked with what was available.
I have noticed a change in the water but I've not had any issue with the water system. I would rate it a 4 because it's an expensive system for poor people. And everybody deserves good, clean water but it's not affordable to everyone because it is expensive.
