Hello, "service" & "communication" is what Home Depot employeess need training in. Marrene & I are not living the dream, we are living a nightmare since we contracted Home Depot to install laminate flooring, sub'd out to Carpet Pro's. The installer started 2pm on day 1 left at 6:30pm. Day 2 9:30 to 6:15pm but, with little or no work done for at least 4 or 5 hours so 2 Home Depot employees and 2 Carpet Pro's employees could inspect the kitchen floor underlayment and how to remove. Today is day 3 and the kitchen floor is still not even close to being ready. This will cost us an additional $800.00, probably 2 extra days. And everything was layed out ahead of time. The phone calls I made to Home Depot on Andreson St. went un-returned until yesterday afternoon. Isn't there some kind of performance standard Home Depot has to live up to?
