    I am being charged before windows were installed, installation poor for Home Depot advertised as professions. Windows not the best made. Windows were not well made and installed. Another crew sent to fix bad installation by first installers. Some part of certain windows not well made to be fixed by another crew. A window installed vinyl broken a bubble in a window and a window with a creak lock on several windows poorly installed and loose and no screw and air blowing in windows shaft where windows let up and down walls and windows seal were damaged. Home Depot started billing me for windows before they were even delivered or installed although I was told no payment or billing until windows were installed and I approved windows and installation.

    Windows were purchased in September 2023 and I am still dealing with windows being installed better and two windows glass has to be replaced. Poor installation will cost me more money to repair damage done to windows seals and internal wall damaged while windows were installed. To summarize just poor craftsmanship and installation for what I am being charged for especially since Home Depot advertises professional bonded and insured installers. Highly disappointed. Will not recommend.

    Ordered 29 NEW ANDERSEN 100 Windows beginning of Aug 2023 to be installed. Were told it would take 12-16 weeks. After the run around of them not being able to do a complete install (synthetic stucco), they gave me a name of an UN-Licensed contractor to finish the job so that the order would not be cancelled on our part after they had already collected over $10K from us. FOUR months later we receive a call (expecting them to tell us our windows were in), stating they won't be able to provide our replacement windows! They have held onto our money for 4 months with no communication and NOT refunded us by CHECK, since our CC has since been paid off. We have requested they also now pay us interest on the money they have held onto all this time and for the complete nightmare it has created for us to start this process all over with another company.

    Our windows needed to be installed by end of year to be able to have our painting contractor completely repaint our home. Home Depot has completely destroyed that while we will have to live with drafty windows for at least ANOTHER 3-4 months! They stuck their stickers on all our window frames when they specifically state NOT TO and after calling their department regarding this issue, we still have not heard one word back from them about the removal of those nor our refund. Next step obviously will be court. BEWARE- DO NOT USE THEM FOR WINDOWS!

    I purchased an exterior door and tried several times with me refusing the door on their last attempt. There had been several issues with Home Depot starting with a tile installation. The quality for the tile installation was poor workmanship and sent the same inexperience installer which made a bigger mess. I had file a complaint where they tried to offer me money and get another company to install. I told them that they were paid for a quality job and I expect that. I would not take the time to find more tile along with someone else to correct their mess. After month the Executive Office decided to have an experience installer to remove the tile and redo the installation. It is still a bad tile installation but would not allow them to further mess up my home.

    I had to file another complaint regarding the exterior door. I had surgery scheduled and tried to have door install before the surgery. The Executive Office several tactics to make me keep the door. After executive office refunded my credit card, I assumed that was the end of it. On 12/04/2023, The trucking company brought the door back to deliver and I explained my credit card had been credited to my card. Executive Office tried to manipulate me into accepting the door and they withdraw the refund. The driver called dispatch that told him to deliver the door anyway. I told the driver if Home Depot was giving me the door I’ll accept. He gave me vague answers so now the trucking company tried manipulating me.

    I called the Executive Office to ask why were they delivering the door again. Due to the issues with the dishonesty from the Executive Office, I started recording our conversation. The rep told me if I had need for I could keep it so I asked for something in writing. She said she was sending while the truck driver was here but she tried stalling. I gave the phone to the truck driver then she said since they had not fully unloaded the driver would take it back. I asked her, "So what you told me was changed." Home Depot will not honor what they said.

    Please be 100% aware of what you’re getting into when signing a contract with Home Depot installation services as we’re now in a nightmare situation with them.

    We signed a contract with agreed upon window dimensions (that matched some existing windows in our house) but without telling us they ordered all different sized windows (significantly smaller), which I refused to let them try and install. They then told me they were cancelling the contract due to pre-existing rot (which they were fully aware of and was the main reason I was getting them replaced in the first place) and that I am liable for all of their costs incurred to date… for windows I never agreed to buy!!! We can’t actually believe that this is happening, so please be aware if considering them for any contract work!

    The installation is worse than I could have imagined. For months I have tried to escalate to no avail. There is no way to speak to anyone higher than the local employees to resolve issues. Nothing was installed correctly and they have come back several times and don’t know how to do it correctly.

    Impact windows installed and a few months later a regular rain entered inside track of home, was told they are made this way and that weep holes are there for water to exit. This was not disclosed to me at any time during the sales pitch, yet they lie and say they will fix anything that goes wrong and want customer satisfied. I would have kept my 50year old windows that never leaked during Hurricane Ian had I known I end up with this problem. PGT windows also arrived with defective beading and looked terrible but they were replaced. I have pictures during installation showing big gap between window and wall which is very poor and incorrect technique.

    Failed window inspection because installer did not put in correct amount of screws. Months later Specialist came to home at my request/complaints and he said the wrong caulking material was used for outdoors, it was very tacky/ gooey and moves under light touch. Home depot refuses to acknowledge poor installation and insist it is ok that normal rain comes in, hate to see what happens in a bad storm. DO NOT RECOMMEND HOME DEPOT SERVICES OR PRODUCTS.

    DO NOT USE HOME DEPOT AT HOME SERVICES especially for hurricane windows and doors. If you do use them do not get your permit closed out until you are 100 % satisfied with the job. if you do they will run you over to their warranty division and start requesting final payment. if you don't pay in full for an incomplete project they will not even fix the problems. our project it's not complete after 18 months of waiting and rescheduling, of lies and promises they convinced us to get the inspection so we could move on with our remodeling.

    They told us not to worry and they would make it right. they promised compensation for painted windows that we were told were extruded, doors that d not lock properly, broken screens, plaster patches that does not match our house and is already cracking. Quality of the PGT WINDOWS is terrible. Windows installed at different heights and depths. their installation manager, Denvil, is the worst. I have emailed the CEO and no response. 4 or 5 subcontractors that one was worse then the other. anyone know a good lawyer?

I took off work today (missing income) and doors aren't going to be installed today.

    The below is my experience and my opinion. We are building a new house and decided to order windows and doors from Home Depot. However, this windows and external door order has been a nightmare from the beginning. The millwork specialist in the Issaquah store never showed up for our appointment and we found out that he had a dentist appointment during that time. At the Missoula store, we received a text message ten minutes before the appointment letting us know that the millwork specialist won't be in for the appointment.

    We then met with a pro desk employee at that store who helped us out as much as possible. We placed the order at the end of April and three months later, we are still waiting for the doors. The delivery has now been rescheduled multiple times. Each time we call there is a different excuse; no timeslot available, driver in overtime, the delivery truck broke down, etc. and the latest one, today August 3, 2023, I was told that the driver returned to the store and resigned on the spot. All the manager says is that she is working on it. We also placed a lumber order around the same time. The lumber is mediocre and many boards are so split that they are not useable or safe for a building. We will avoid any special orders with HD in the future and spend our money at local business instead.

    Home Depot advertises Andersen Windows, but how does one purchase and get them installed? Oh wait. How does one get Bob ** to send you the quote. Two months, later, frequent trips in person to the store, phone calls, nothing! Granted, it included a custom window, but that is why I went with Andersen brand. Promises of emails, "by tonight, by tomorrow night, by...Never." Complaint to Andersen itself, and I was told sellers get a direct number to call, so that blew Bob's one of many excuses. Not having much better luck with the two other dealers Andersen recommended so Marvin windows are looking pretty good.

    It took about a year for Home Depot to install 9 replacement windows. The original installers looked at the old windows, decided they didn't know how to replace them, and left. Months later, a new crew came and did all the work in a single day and left the cleanup to two guys who didn't speak English. When I looked at the job from the outside, it was horrible! Cement trim was wavy and uneven everywhere, so I called and it took a couple of weeks for them to review what they did. They agreed it was sloppy. They sent two more non-English speaking guys who didn't know what to do, so they left. A week later, two more of the same and they dripped cement all over my garage floor, which dried into lumpy cement messes. Their patch job was horrible too. They also let my dogs out of the dog yard by leaving the gate open. Took hours to round them up.

    Again, a few weeks after I complained, they came back to somewhat repair the work, to scrape up the cement blobs from the other workers, and to finish the inside trim. They didn't order enough trim, they didn't caulk the inside and left gaps in the wood. That took another two months. I was really losing my patience, but they know how to handle customer complaints,... they pass the buck and say someone will get back to you, which doesn't happen. Seems like everyone has a specific task and there is nobody to make a decision. Anyway, the trim eventually came and it was once again, wrong. They came back with more, finally had enough and some of it is now falling down from the tops of the windows.

    Let me tell you about the windows themselves... the impact windows have a green tint, so water in the backyard doesn't look blue, it's a dark green or brown. We were told that they were thermal, but a temperature reading next to the window is about 90 degrees on the inside. They don't save money. They are supposed to be UV proof, but I can still grow plants in the windows. Needless to say, they are just okay and not worth the money.

    I'm getting calls from a person who says they are a permit company hired by Home Depot and they want my drivers license and other personal information in order to extend or complete the permit process. I find that unacceptable. I am not texting a photo of my driver's license to an unknown person on the phone. I received a letter saying the permit was finished, so I don't know who or why I am being bothered with this.

    I have a balance due with Home Depot, and they call me regularly to put the rest on my Home Depot card, but I asked them at least three times to have a manager call me. I asked for a 10% discount for a crappy job and a year worth of grief. I figured that was fair. They already have $4,000 of my money and it's paid in full. Three times they said a manager would call me, but that never happened, so I stopped answering the calls.

    I took pictures and have copies of all the correspondence. I don't know what their next move will be, but I am prepared to go to court over this. Customer service doesn't seem to exist at Home Depot in Florida. Anyway, thanks for listening. Use Home Depot to buy tools or lumber, not for doors and windows. Get somebody who doesn't hire the cheapest help they can find.

    Got our windows replaced (whole house, 28 windows and 2 patio doors) in 2018. Windows have leaked since that time, and we’ve spent that time (yes 5 years) through 100s of calls and emails trying to get Home Depot just to call us back, not to mention to come out and fix it. Their customer service and responsiveness is horrible and they refuse to accept responsibility for their mistakes. They finally call us back (yes in 2023) arrange to come fix it (3 times we were ghosted, reps came to the house to tear apart our windows on the inside and left us with their mess) then today come to fix it and tell us that siding is breaking because windows were not installed properly and siding has to be pulled in order to fix it, and now it is a liability claim. Not to mention having to replace the house wrap and the water damage to our dry wall in the house as well.

    However, Home Depot is saying they are going to replace only a section of the siding around the windows which is going to leave my house with mismatched siding, unless I pay for the additional siding so my house matches, all because of a bad window install. They should be replacing all of my siding and not leaving me with mismatched siding on my home for their mistakes. I already know by posting this I will simply get a drafted, scripted reply from a Home Depot customer service representative versus a decision maker that actually wants to make things right and help us with this disaster… which again proves our above situation. I’d recommend staying far far away from Home Depot Home Services.

    We spent over $20,000.00 for 21 windows in our home. The manufacture and delivery of the initial 11 of those 21 windows was botched. Only 5 were delivered. The other 6 were not in the order. The installation of those 5 windows was late and the final trim work was horrible. Louis, the installer, left me low-grade, unstained, and unmitered wood to stain myself and hang. DHM Construction had to repair Louis' work. DHM Construction also installed the other 10 windows ordered last year for our 2nd floor. The windows were installed and caulked from the inside & without the use of a ladder. On 12/25/22, a cold front with wind gusts of 40 mph blew outside and 13 windows began whistling in our home. The whistling continues every time the winds get gusty where we live.

    After repeated & recent attempts to contact Matt **, Ed **, and Brandon **, Home Depot reps/contractors, THE DEFECTIVE WINDOWS HAVE NOT BEEN REPAIRED OR REPLACED!!! NONE OF THESE REPS HAS RETURNED OUR CALLS FOR HELP!. This intentional disregard of a problem with a Home Depot product by Home Depot reps is shameful.

    This would seem great, if I could get past the below facts: * Quality of EVERY window, agreed to by several THD reps who came on site to review my org claims * Incorrect Energy Star ratings on several windows * Casement window that is still inoperable, opening mechanism broke on second opening - THD was made aware on multiple occasions * 3-Panel Patio Door Specifics: ***Opened the WRONG WAY ***Patio door screen will not stay on tracks - yes, I had adjusted to the max height compensation *** Install of PD had the center, locking pillar, drilled thru - exposing the screw tip in VIEW * MOLD BUILD UP on windows, assumingly die to poor/broken seals of windows allowing moisture to drip and settle on inside. Funny, once I presented pictures of the incorrect window energy rating and mold that THD took the actions to fully refund the purchase - but again, I am facing WORSE conditions than what I had, and now facing higher costs a year later!

    My wife and I hired Home Depot to replace our windows and doors in the back of the house with hurricane-impact windows and doors on October 2020. When the Home Depot salesman came to talk to us about their product, I asked him two questions, was Home Depot using their own employees and was the job going to be finished by December of 2020. His answer was yes to both questions. It wasn't until January 14, 2021, that we received an email from Home Depot informing us that they were ready for the installation, lie number one.

    When the installers arrived at our house we realized they were not Home Depot employees but subcontractors, lie number two. A contract amendment was made via email on November 10, 2020, that required all the French Doors to open on the left side. Out of the three sets of French Doors, the one in our bedroom opens on the right side. It has taken almost two years for this small project to be completed, some of the problems we encountered were poor workmanship on the part of the subcontractors that came to our house and other problems have been the incompetence showed by the real Home Depot employees that handled the order of the parts needed for our house.

    The installers installed the wrong French Door in our living room, damaged the edges of the two windows in the kitchen and the master bedroom. Every time they had to reorder these parts it would take another four months to come in. Every time the installers had to come back to fix something that was done incorrectly my wife and I would take time off from work to be at the house. The above-mentioned two windows by the master bedroom were ordered twice by Home Depot. The first time they had ordered the wrong windows, the second time the windows arrived with some damaged. We would find out once the installers would get to our house and determine that there was a problem. Why wasn't this checked at the warehouse before they brought the windows in? Hence the reason I mentioned incompetence. Out of frustration I contacted Home Depot and requested not to replace the master bedroom windows and instead give us a credit.

    Finally, almost two years later Home Depot called the county for a final inspection. When the inspector came in he noticed that one of the kitchen windows was missing the sticker required by the county for insurance purposes and he failed the final inspection. Home Depot hired a paper runner and he showed up with a sticker. Once again an inspector was scheduled for the final inspection and once again it was denied because the sticker the runner had placed on our window had nothing to do with our windows. The runner came back, installed another sticker and the third inspection passed.

    We requested that Home Depot replace the French Doors in our bedroom to match the rest of the French Doors per our agreement or give us a credit for their mistake and also give us a credit for the two windows in the master bedroom that were never replaced. Home Depot is not willing to take care of us the customer.

    Based on our experience, no one in our family or friends will hire Home Depot anymore.

    We first signed the papers to purchase our impact windows in October of 2021. It is now November of 2022 and the job remains unfinished. The installation did not take place until April but we were willing to wait because we knew there were many delays due to supply chain issues. However, on the day(s) of the install, the installation team not only shattered one of our old windows and did a shoddy job cleaning up (leaving pieces of glass on our floor when we have a dog, a baby and a toddler in the house), but also left dirty handprints on a window that was so high up it needed a scaffold to be installed (so obviously cannot be cleaned by anyone else now). They also did not have 3 of the screens needed.

    After 4 months, no one had called about scheduling an inspection. I had called, emailed, etc numerous times and FINALLY got them to schedule someone to come out for the inspection. At the inspection it was noted that the stickers they left on the windows were on the OUTSIDE instead of the inside, and therefore could not be removed. When you open the windows, the stickers become covered and cannot be removed, so you'd need a 2 story ladder to do it. So 7 months after installation, we still have stickers covering portions of our windows.

    We still do not have the missing screens, as when they finally sent someone out to build them, he was sent with screens that were too small. He also showed up unannounced (home depot was supposed to call to schedule, they never did). He also did not have the screw caps he was supposed to have to fill in the holes in our door they installed. He also did not have a ladder to use to take off the stickers. So that was all in all useless. It's now been another few weeks and no one answers my emails or calls. I haven't written a review until now because I keep wanting to give them time to fix this but I've had enough. I still have to pay my bill every month, and yet here we are...

On 7/15/21 the installers could not install the living room window (lost), the master bedroom window (cracked), the master bathroom window (too big), the patio doors (wrong swing). Only three bedroom windows were installed, leaving the project not even half done. After the failed install, we heard nothing from anybody at Home Depot. We called the Home Depot and were told it was the problem of the 3rd party installers and there was nothing they could do.

    We were finally able to arrange a 3rd measure to confirm all the measurements were correct and the swing of the door correct before the order was sent out. After 4 months without any calls from Home Depot, we called to confirm the information on the 3rd measure, only to be told (8 months after the initial contract signing) that the patio doors could not be produced. At that point we were handed off to an HDIS Sales Manager, and we agreed to a refund for the canceled patio doors. This was 1/6/22. However, a refund check was never sent.

    The installation coordinator kept telling us that they were waiting on installers. It wasn't until 7/11/22 when we left a voicemail pointing out the ridiculous treatment of our project, that we finally heard back from anyone. And surprise, on 7/14/22 they came out and put the living room window in. Then on 7/18/22 they put the master bedroom and bathroom windows in. That they were able to come out immediately tells us they could have installed these windows much sooner than they did. The master bathroom window is missing the screen. The installers destroyed all of the drywall on the inside window frames. They finished the last two windows using clear caulking instead of white which would have matched the other 4 windows installed by Home Depot.

    On 8/25/22, Home Depot tried to make us sign a non-disclosure agreement in order to receive our money back from the door that we paid for and they did not deliver. We went through Home Depot because we thought being a well-established business, we would not have a lot of hassle if something went wrong. BOY, WERE WE WRONG!!! RUN RUN RUN away from the Home Depot and anything to do with installation! Our windows are an absolute mess and we have not been compensated for the 1 ½ year nightmare they have put us through.

    THE HOME DEPOT -- Window replacements are junk. I have had zero luck with the window replacements Home Depot sells. The sashes were defective after only 2 years, losing their seals. When getting replacement sashes for the replacement windows they finally came after 10 weeks defective (bent/warped sash frames, and not properly sized) from the factory so another re-order. Taking 8 to 10 weeks to re-order the 3rd set. COVID is not the issue, it is the defective sashes being manufactured then installed by gosh who knows who that HD has hired.

    The regional manager has lied to us numerous times saying he wants to come and take a look at the problem, then is a no show or call back with explanation as to why he didn't even show up!! I suggest going with a local company in your area that can give you a quicker turnaround time than the huge box-store HD and hopefully won't lie to you. Customer Service reps are good people but caught in the middle as always with companies like this. Will update on 3rd set of sashes when they arrive!

    I and many others have been duped by Home Depot and by PlyGem windows into believing that the windows purchased at Home Depot are covered by a reliable warranty. PlyGem ignores warranty requests submitted to them. Home Depot ignores complaints made about the PlyGem windows they sell. Consumer Affairs refuses to publish my review of the problem despite the fact that my statements were all truthful. I can't help but believe that Consumer Affairs protects the businesses that they represent. A true marriage of convenience between a manufacturer of inferior products and a business that supposedly represents the best interests of the customers who are fooled into believing the warranty on these products.

    My home was a total mess when I purchased Andersen windows from Home Depot. We spent $18000.00 on 4 French doors & 9 windows. Most of the windows leaked, all the French doors leaked. Their installer came by really did nothing, on his last trip to my home he handed me 4 tubes of silicone!!! I was on my own! I reached out to Andersen many many times. They told me they would send their best inspector. We live on the bay and that’s the excuse the inspector used for all my damage. He put in his report the damage was from super storm Sandy!!!! We were very lucky with that storm, and only has many 1/4” of water in the bedroom facing the bay.

    My house is two storeys. 3 of the French doors are upstairs with 7 windows. If the water rose that high the house would be gone. With those lies from their inspector they told me they would do nothing. I heard & read many reviews having the same problems! That’s why they came up with Renewal By Andersen & have their own professional installers now and end of their complaints. With all that said I’m a landlord & I used Home Depot for all my properties. Never bought from them again & I have nothing good to say about Andersen!!!!!

    I purchased a door in 2018. They neglected to tell me I couldn't use a security door in front of it so it warped and peeled. So, in January of this year (2022) I revisited Home Depot and asked if they would assist me in getting a new door. Of course, they said yes. Long story short they delivered the door, put it in and it was damaged. They didn't know the door was damaged until they installed the new door. It is now August and I still don't have the replacement. They sent a guy out that had alcohol on his breath covered with Halls Cough drops.

    I bought my blinds and windows and haven't received anything but headaches. I bought my windows, and the person who installed the window in my office made a hole in my drywall. A couple of weeks later, the same window started to leak. I called someone to check the window leak, and the guy made the hole bigger. I have contacted Home Depot multiple times, and nothing gets resolved. They keep saying that a report has been filed and they are waiting to be "processed." I am very disappointed. Home Depot is a rip-off. Please, do not do business with them unless you are ready for some headaches. They also lie about financing.

    Home Depot at Miramar, Haileah and Pembroke Pines do not want to help the customers find materials. Customer Service representative at the Pines store was unprofessional, rude, and lacked the necessary knowledge to be proactive. I was searching for Veranda vinyl fence panels. Multiple stores showed in the system they had many, yet they kept telling me all they had was what was on display. Lumber personnel were dismissive and had the aisles messy with large materials all over the floors causing safety hazards. Finally, after getting the manager at the Pines store, the panels were found. I had to drive to 3 stores searching because employees were too lazy, disorganized, and careless to bring down the pallets. At the Pines stores they sent me to the university store. That's when I called the manager.

    They had me driving around south Florida until I called a manager. This person took action and went out back to find the panels. She was the only person there that was attentive and professional. Home Depot is not was it used to be... Very disorganized aisles, dangerous with many safety hazards. Rude staff, long lines of over an hour at customer service. The company seems like it's going under at rapid speed. Many family and friends have shared similar stories. From now on my store of choice will be Lowell's for building and garden material. Lowell's has organized stores, and knowledgeable staff. At Lowell's walking through their aisles will not put your life in danger.

    We ordered multiple windows and a sliding glass door. When they finally arrived, took months, one was cracked and the installer had measured the door wrong. The window did not have screens. The installer stuck our windows in with a "few" screws, leaving a 1 inch gap behind the nail fin, which precluded proper installation of the window trim. He literally used a pry bar and a sledgehammer to force the sliding glass door into the opening, despite my asking him to stop and order the correct sized door. The door is twisted and warped, and jumps the track in operation due to this. The handleset was also the wrong color, least of the issues. The crack in the one slider has spread throughout the entire pane.

    Home Depot promised to order the correct door. Home Depot sent another contactor out to review the issues who was appalled at the incorrect installation. Home Depot promised to pay this contactor to come out and reinstall the windows and the door when the "correct sized" door arrived. Home Depot did not DO ANY OF THESE THINGS. We spent all last winter with the wind literally blowing into our home around these windows and door. The trim is not installed, and the sealant used on the inside separated within 24 hours due to the windows flexing and expanding as a consequence of the improper installation. They do not return calls, make promises they do not keep, don't show up when they say they will. They lied that they would make this right.

    I had to file a dispute with my credit card company to protect my rights, and 8 months later I am attempting to get my broken window warranted directly from the manufacturer AND seeking a contractor to come and reinstall my windows and remove and replace the door. The exterior of my stucco home has exposed wire and paper, and no trim for 8 full months now, and counting. This has been a NIGHTMARE. And since Home Depot is the installer of record I am in a bind with the manufacturer as they defer to the installer for warranty issues.

    We had many windows replaced (Around 17) and paid some good money for what we thought were good windows with a good warranty. Half of the windows won't stay open and you cannot get anyone on the phone to help you. Every day we leave voicemails and emails and no one ever responds. Do yourself a favor and look for windows elsewhere for windows.

    I am leaving the review for Home Depot Window replacement and installation service. If there is negative stars review available, they definitely deserve it. I ordered my window replacement back in Oct 2020, and now (March 2022) I am still waiting for my window project to be completed. The window team always has excuses like the supply chain issue. Also, they are not responsive and do know their clients' work status at all. I would say even though there is some supply chain issue, a delay of ONE AND HALF year is not acceptable in any situation, even everyone in the team dies for some reasons.

    I would give less than one star if I could. They measured window opening wrong, give me a small size window that is being patched up with 2x4(s) at the bottom, foam seal around, and quarter rounds inside to cover their mistakes. Very poor craftsmanship. Have been in dispute with them for more than a year. In addition, they would not own up to their mistake about wrong measurements and neither would they take their product back. Now they are threatening to take me to collection and mess up my credit rather than resolving the matter. Who would have thought a large company like Home Depot to behave so badly!!!

    In early November 2021, (the 13th or the 14th) I ordered a set of shower doors from Home Depot online and got a date of a week from the order for delivery. Friday the 19th would be perfect for a store pick-up. I promised my customer that I would have them installed by the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, 24 November 2021. (This was the final step in the bathroom remodel that included the removal of of a cast iron tub, installing a shower pan, tile work, painting etc.) The shower doors were warehoused in Dallas already! They had to go from the HD warehouse less than 60 miles to the Denton HD Retail store. The madness of Black Friday was approaching but the chances seemed very good that I could get the doors in time to make the deadline 10 days in the future.

    Wrong, wrong, so very wrong! I ended up buying the doors at "my" local Denton HD store but they cost an extra $66, from $304 to $370. HD can't keep their delivery promise but I can make it right with my customer by paying 22% more. I did it (paid the extra $66 plus tax) but I would like my money back. That seems to be a reasonable request. The shiny side of the coin is the Denton HD store employees are a truly conscientious group of hardworking people. It wasn't their fault in the least, but they got several in person visits from me saying "where are my doors". For them, I gave a 2-star rating instead of a 1-star evaluation.

    In July 2021, we signed the paperwork with Carlton **, Senior Design Consultant @ Home Depot, for window replacement/installation project in our summer house in Monticello, NY. I opened a Home Depot credit card as part of the deal and began repaying the deposit for this project (09/08 - $500; 10/07/ - $200; 11/09 - $200; $900.00 all together). In August, we got our windows measured by another Home Depot employee. In October, we scheduled the date for installation - 11/20, Saturday. We were very specific about a Saturday appointment as we live in Brooklyn and can only come every other Saturday. For the past three weeks (before 11/20), we would get reminders a few times a week - via text messages, e-mails, and voice mails - about the upcoming installation date asking us to be in the house between 8:00 and 10:00 a.m. and reminding us about the importance of removing everything 3 feet away from the windows.

    As law abiding and loyal customers, we came Friday night (11/19) to follow the instructions. At 8:00 (!!!) a.m., we got a phone call from an installation department manager who told us that they had to cancel an appointment since they didn't have installation crew... He did not apologize and failed to answer when I asked him if he had found out about that issue at 7:55 a.m. on Saturday. We were upset to the point my husband had to take his high blood pressure medication and pain relief pills. It was so unacceptable and unprofessional on the Home Depot!

    This painstaking endeavor began over 10 months ago. Poor transport of products by the installer caused scratches on the products. The installation took place over six months ago and only one month ago we had an inspection. I am still waiting for the Installer to return to finish up. Home Depot has the worse Installation Services. They are liars, they laugh at your face, never deliver on their promises, you call and leave messages for a return call that never happens. This company is a joke, it is a disrespect to the customers, they can cause you to have a nervous breakdown.

    Began the process to have a new front door installed just before the Covid shutdown of 2020. Paid a fee to have a rep come to my home and take measurements. This was completed within a week or so. Then the country shut down, people ordered to saty home, business closed etc. Never finished front door process. Went to Home Depot today to inquire about finishing the purchase and install. Was told I would have to start over and pay again to have the door measured. I stated that it was nonsense. The door had not changed nor did the previous measurements and I should not have to pay another fee to have the door measured again. Then I was told the previous information "drops off the computer after a year."

    C'MON MAN, that's a crock of **. Info doesn't just "drop off" of computers. This is a total scam and rip off. I left the store and informed them I would go to Lowe's to get my door. Just out of principle. Not paying Home Depot a second time to measure the same door. Total **. And it's more nonsense that I can't find an email address for the corporate personnel. Obviously because they don't want to be bombarded by similar complaints.

    If I could give ZERO stars I would! I made the mistake of calling Home Depot to get a quote for new windows for my historic home in Portland. I knew I wanted wood windows to replace the 100 yr old windows I currently have. After the sticker shock of the ridiculously high prices, I went ahead and ordered new windows for the bedrooms only. This was in May 2021. Months go by with delays and I get a call the windows are in! They sent a contractor to install them and he refused to wear a mask and used the word "plandemic" to describe the Covid19 pandemic. I had asked that they send a vaccinated and masked installer which they did not do. They also did not have all the windows.

    I took two days off to deal with the windows and did not get the windows since they failed to mention they did not have them all. Another month goes by and they call claiming to have all the windows. They sent a different installer and I took the two days off to get the windows installed. This time, I learn one of the windows they ordered was completely wrong and another window I needed never got ordered! The customer service is horrible. They sent a guy to my house to smooth things over and he promised a rush order for the two windows remaining to complete my order. He promised I would have them within a month and definitely before Thanksgiving.

    On Oct 8, I received a call from Home Depot Installation Services that the windows will not be in until the third week of January 2022! When I reached out to the Installation Manager, he blamed it on the manufacturer. Once they get the sale, Home Depot does not care about the customer. The contractors they use are terrible. They damaged my home and have not made it right. I recommend going through a reputable window company to order new windows and never Home Depot.
