I purchased a retractable awning from Ocean Tailors about 6 years ago. At the time, I was very…read moreimpressed with their product, professionalism and quality of installation and service. The electric awning worked perfectly for us since then until just recently, when the extending and closing mechanism seemed to develop a mind of its own. I believe the true measure of a company's character is the after-sales response to a reported problem. Sandy was every bit as accommodating and attentive to my issue as if she was on the cusp of a major new sale. My calls were promptly and graciously returned, and as they did the trouble-shooting, I was kept informed of the status and next steps. An on-site service was required, and the team arrived as scheduled and could not have been more professional. The problem was resolved within 3 days of being reported to Ocean Tailors! There are many retractable awnings on the market; but if you want top quality in both product and service, Ocean Tailors can't be beat! I am one happy long-time customer!

We have had awnings on our house for many decades and the sunbrella material usually lasts about 10…read moreyears. We were looking for a new company to work with. I saw Dorchester Awning and read good reviews, so I wrote to them and sent pictures of what we had and what we were looking for. The response was very fast. We selected new material in the online books and even changed the design of the awning over the front door. The job was completed within 5-6 weeks and came out perfectly. Working with Tom as the project lead - communications were excellent. The professional installation crew carefully took down the old awnings and with the same care installed the new ones. I would highly recommend Dorchester awning company. Henry G. Medford MA

After multiple discussions and an email agreement on March 7, 2014, I sent Mr. Robert Glidden,…read morePresident/Owner of Awning Systems, Inc., Hyannis, Massachusetts, a check in the amount of $2,562, as a deposit on a project to replace our present awning (originally installed by Awning Systems in approximately 1994) with a Sunesta Retractable Awning w/ Motor for our home at 3 Weetamo Road in Nantucket, MA. Our bank records show that Awning Systems cashed that check. At the time, Mr. Glidden and I discussed our mutual desire for him to provide the materials and labor for said project during the spring of 2014, in order to beat the seasonal rush of jobs that takes place on island during the summer. Since that time, I have made multiple efforts via phone and email to reach Mr. Glidden in order to determine the status of the job. I dropped by his office in Hyannis on May 14, 2014, but he was not there, so I left a message with his assistant, Nicki. On August 6, 2014, I sent Mr. Glidden a certified letter, return receipt requested, to register my desire, not having heard from him in five months, to end our transaction and to have him return my deposit. I also indicated in that letter that, should I not receive a check in the full amount of my deposit within ten (10) days from the date of the letter, I would take steps to file a complaint with the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office of Consumer Protection, file a complaint with the Massachusetts Better Business Bureau and list a negative review of his business on media websites. The return receipt for said letter is dated August 7. On August 11, my wife made a subsequent visit to the Hyannis office, where she found Mr. Glidden, who said he was just about to call us; he claimed the original awning had arrived at his office damaged, and that he had ordered a new one which he indicated would be ready to be installed within the next week. He gave my wife his cell phone number. I have called that number many times, and the mailbox has been full. I have called the office several times, and, since no one answered, I have left messages there. I finally was able to leave a voicemail message on Mr. Glidden's cell phone on September 6, in which message I indicated that, if I had not heard back from him over the weekend, I would, on Monday, September 8, begin to take the actions outlined in my letter. Hence, the filing of this review in the form of a complaint.

Eventually they stopped answering our phone calls and we couldn't get in touch with anyone there. When June rolled around and our awning still was never delivered ( keep in mind it was already paid for in full), we sought legal action. We had our lawyer send a letter threatening to take them to small claims court if they didn't deliver awning by June 25th. What a surprise, on June 25th they showed up with it!

After numerous calls and false promises on their part the job is still not complete. The man who calls himself Michael is extremely unprofessional and has real anger management issues. Just the other day, he called me a #itch and "trasher" for writing up a negative review with the BBB and my calling his company frequently about the status of my order. We are now taking them to court. My only regret is that I did not research their company (would have found out about their poor business practices) before I contracted with them and I should have not paid in full.
