Here Today and Here Tomorrow... Really Means a Lot! - Glastar Sunrooms by SunShade

Here Today and Here Tomorrow... Really Means a Lot!

Happy Canada Day!! Midway through another busy season, we have spoken to many people who have concerns about who they should be dealing with. Being in business for over 40 years, we have seen many sunroom companies come and go, and have heard of numerous occasions where people booked jobs, paid deposits, or even full price (to get an additional discount) and then the company went out of business leaving them with nothing! There are usually some "Red Flags" to watch for so you can avoid these pitfalls.

When shopping beware of the "trash talkers" - if they can't sell their own product based on its merit - something is wrong. If they keep pestering you, are they concerned about you or just desperate for business? Are they being realistic when they promise to do the job in two to four weeks. We have been pre-booked at times for as many as twelve to fourteen weeks depending on weather and time of year. 

Be cautious about "freebies" or "buy now promotions" that are designed to force you into a quick decision. No company stays in business long by working for nothing! A 10% deposit should be sufficient unless the company has to pay for material up front - but do you want to deal with someone who can't get credit?  Check with the Better Business Bureau and inquire about their track record (if there is no information about them they probably are not a member). Also make sure they obtain a building permit and check it - before they start!   Also remember - warranties don't mean much if the company isn't there to honour them. The old adage holds true - if it sounds too good to be true - it probably is.

A reputable company will assist you in the planning stages and give you the time and information to make a knowledgeable decision. If you would like any further information visit our factory at 265 Sutherland Ave. or call us at 204-940-3030 for a free in home estimate.
