This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I needed replacement windows for one of my rental properties and I decided to call Homefix as they run a local ad here. A salesman (I'll leave out his name) showed up an the unit about 30 minutes late. He immediately started looking at the windows and lit a cigarette (indoors). I let that go. After about 10 minutes of inspecting and sizing the windows he excused himself to use the bathroom saying "aw man, I've got the Hershey's squirts... where's the shiiter?" He eventually came out of the bathroom in a very different mood. His eyes were bloodshot and he seemed much more upbeat and aggressive. He gave me a rambling sales pitch that surprisingly ended with him telling me that he doesn't want to be jerked around and that he's got other "bigger/better" clients to attend to. I had not said anything negative up to this point. I then just asked him if he had a business card. He gave me this creepy stare and then fished a card out from his jacket pocket. When he did, a tightly-rolled dollar bill fell out. He snatched it off of the ground and seemed to quickly lose interest in me. After he left I realized that he probably was using cocaine in the bathroom earlier. I decided to go with another company.

This is so obviously a bogus complaint poseted no doubt by a competitor. It's actually funny to read but there's certainly no truth to it.

Homefix Corporation ripoff lied about everything!

We scheduled the appointment for the installers to come. They showed up about an hour late and ended up being at our house for a much longer length of time then we were told they would be there. They also didn't finish all the work and had to come back the next day which was a Saturday.

They showed up over 2 hours late on Saturday to finish the work. They did the cutout for the window in the basement and installed that. They left the sheet rock around the window in such horrible shape that we ended up having to replace it ourselves. They also left the inside trim on our picture window all cut up and unfinished. They also left all the windows dirty with their fingerprits and residue. They could have at least cleaned them like other window companies do.

I am not only not recommending Homefix to anyone, but I am also making sure everyone knows to not even consider using them.

This complaint is clearly bogus, no company is sending cokeheads to people's houses to harass potential clients. Even if Homefix was a scam (theoretically), they would still make sure to send someone to the house that had a chance of making a sale. Anyway, Homefix did my roof and I was very satisfied with the work they did, and I even called them again so they could install a new storm door and a new sliding door for me.
