Many clients have a variety of questions about how we schedule installations, as well as what to expect on the big day. We would like to take this time to review our scheduling process, which starts when we receive your custom products in our warehouse. A quality control check will take place and then the scheduling department will call you to secure a date for installation.
Prior to the installation and the arrival of our crew, we ask the homeowner to prepare the property as outlined in our Installation Guidelines. We require that the homeowner remove all window coverings (mini blinds, vertical blinds, shades, interior shutters, drapes), disconnect alarm systems, secure all valuables, remove all delicate objects and clear an area of 3 feet around each work space for our crew. If we are unable to perform the installation due to inadequate site preparation, a $250 dispatch fee will be charged.
There are weather conditions that prevent our crews from installing, including precipitation, high winds and extreme temperatures. Since forecasts can be quite unreliable, we do not move scheduled projects in anticipation of bad weather. We make a weather determination the morning of the scheduled installation, and if rescheduling is necessary we will email you by 7:30 a.m. and follow up with a phone call by 8:00 a.m. to reschedule.
We will need you to be home at the end of the installation in order to make sure you are satisfied with our workmanship and complete the closeout process with the installers. As a reminder, the project balance is due on the scheduled installation date.
