I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with this service (or other construction services) with Home Depot. After having estimates and designs drawn up from several different firms in the last several months, we've decided that the closets designed by Home Depot best fits our needs. We had just decided to go forth with this plan but have just learned that they are asking for payment in full, up front. This is a very unusual circumstance in our more than 30 years of home ownership and facilitating multiple projects in our home over the years.
The total for doing the 2 closets is quite costly and we feel we would have no recourse if there is a problem. The designer doesn't seem to be willing to negotiate, saying this is the policy.
So, has anyone had any experience with Home Depot, what is the quality of the work and reliability of the workers? Any problems? Any thoughts on going through with this, payment in full?
I have done several months of looking into closet design and we've actually torn the old closets out in preparation (yikes!) so I'm feeling quite ready to move forward but certainly don't want to make any foolish judgments here.
All thoughts are welcome. Thanks in advance.
