Hi Kimberly,
I am very sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the end result. I would like to start off by saying I was the true designer on your job and not just a sales consultant. In custom work there is always a designer and a detailer who work out all final measurements and details for production this is so across the board for all custom companies. In your case you were told that the production would take roughly 10 weeks for a painted finish and the design time depends on how many changes are made, in your case you sent me various changes after coming to finalize the design which resulted in our meeting with the detailer to ensure that we could do what you were asking for -- as it was a completely custom design feature that we had to manufacture and not pieces that could be ordered.
The install did not go smooth due to various reasons such as uneven walls and floors and the fireplace installer did not center the fireplace and had to go back to do so, therefore our installer was not able to complete the job as promised. We did our best to fit you into our schedule along the way to get the job done as soon as possible. We also did our very best to get back as soon as possible to do any service, but in your case the doors had to be sent back to paint finishing - this timing is out of our control due to its custom nature.
The feature of the remote signal passing through the painted material was not guaranteed to you as discussed as this is not something Lancaster offers but tried to delivery as requested.
As for the granite surround around the fireplace that is always out-sourced as we are not a granite or stone company (they template and then install shortly after, again this is the procedure across the board for all custom millwork companies which I also explained to you and you were aware of). It was also brought to your attention that the tile on the floor was not centered to your mantel or fireplace - so again you were aware of that. Finally, your install was completed roughly 3 months ago and you could have reached out to me to discuss your disappointment and frustration to see what could have been done but you did not do so.
Again, I am very sorry that you are disappointed but I feel Lancaster delivered what was promised to you and we took all the steps to get the job done right given the unexpected and unforeseen delays.
Best Regards, Beverly
