After paying a $1000 deposit to A&K Tile to hold a stone for a countertop, I found their estimate to be too high for my wallet. When I told them I had to cancel the job and asked for a refund of my deposit, Gerry (Gerrard Owens) said “no problem.” No work had been done, other than providing an estimate. Well, 30 days and counting and it’s a problem — no refund. Check’s been “in the mail” at least three times so far. I made the mistake of paying by check from my line of credit. Don’t you do the same — stick to the credit card so you can dispute the charge. These people are overpriced and unscrupulous. Small Claims Court, Dept of Consumer Affairs, here I come.
