It didnt go at all. I don't understand how these people stay in business. On 7/27 I dropped into their store and explained the job. Al Chambers said he would call me the next day to come by at 2PM and see it. On 7/28, 2PM came and went. I called the store and got voice mail. I called Mr. Chambers's cell phone. After 8 rings he answered and explained that he was taking a nap because he was taking his great-granddaughter somewhere that evening. He arrived 30 minutes later, looked at the job, and quoted a price of $30 an hour. He said that he would call me the next day to schedule it. 7/29 came and went. On 7/30 I called the store and again got voice mail. I called Mr. Chambers's cell phone. He stated that "We scheduled it for Thursday. I will call you on Wednesday to confirm." Wednesday 8/3 came and went. I called the store, got voice mail as usual. I left a message on Mr. Chambers's cell phone and never heard back from him. No one called or showed up Thursday 8/4. After reading the other reviews on Angie's list, I am thankful for Mr. Chambers ill manners and utter lack of professionalism.

My dealings with Bennington Flooring and Bath are very negative. The floor that was installed failed and after trying to determine the casue fo the failure my insurance company hired an engineer. The engineer determined the fail was installation error and using materials not designed for the type of floor installed. Bennington agreed to replace the floor and after (6 months of calls and visits) to date no floor! We are living on concrete. Please learn from this very expensive experience.
Description of Work: Bennington Flooring and Bath installed a hardwood floor in my home, jsut weeks after the installation the floor failed. The wood buckled and popped and was beyond repair.

Response from Bennington Flooring & Baths Inc
This customer went back up north after installation and did not leave the humidistat on which caused the wood to swell and buckle. Moisture is a problem with solid wood flooring and we told her to make sure the humidistat was left on. The moisture level when we went back to check it out was extremely high and at first we thought there had been a leak in a pipe under her slab. Research indicated it was not a leak so it had to be the humidity. We had had unusually rainy weather while she was gone. We felt bad for her and tried to help by offering to install tile for her but she would have to cover the cost of the tile. The labor would be free but she wanted us to cover the cost of the tile as well. We couldn't justify the cost since it was not our fault. Therefore, she is not happy with us.

Did not have a blue print, hired other contractors to do things that didn't need to be done. I felt like I was a fill-in for other jobs that he had. The secretary said "we have other jobs that are more important than you." I signed a contract on May 15th and it wasn't finished until August 12th. He broke a door, he left paper in the middle of the floor, it was an ugly site.
Description of Work: Remodeled a very small bathroom.

Response from Bennington Flooring & Baths Inc
Due to the scope of the work that (Member name removed) contracted us to do we were required to pull permit for the electrical and plumbing work that was to be done. Therefore we contracted with a General Contractor to pull the permit and do the work that was not in our scope. To pull the permit took time and no work could be done without the proper permit. The General Contractor finally secured the permit and started the work that he needed to do. Then (Member name removed) started changing her mind as to what she wanted and didn't want. We tried to accommodate her as much as we could at our cost. The General Contractor got so frustrated that he quit and we had to hire a new General Contractor to finish the work. The electrical contractor had the same problem with (Member name removed) changing what she wanted and the simple one day job turned into a week. The plumber came in and moved the plumbing and then she didn't like the fixtures that she had purchases and wanted different ones put on. The problem was the valve in the wall was Moen and she had bought American Standard and they don't interchange. We had to wait for the inspections with the building department and they work at their own pace. (Member name removed) didn't understand why we couldn't keep working when we were waiting for the inspections. My secretary tried to explain but she thought she was saying we had other work to do so we were putting her off which was not the case. Every time (Member name removed) changed something there became a delay because of inspections. She then wanted additional work done without paying for it. We gave her a price at cost but she still was not happy with it. We had put down paper to keep her carpet from getting soiled and because there was a delay because of inspections she threw it all out and we had to replace it to protect her carpet. We do a professional job with the best contractors available and her bathroom turned out to be beautiful. She had the ceiling raised, shower completely remodeled and tiled, glass block put in for a door,tile the floor, new cabinets with granite counter top. New shelving in the closet, new lighting and they moved the hot water heater. No job was more important than theirs. We don't get paid until it is finished so it is in our best interest to finish as quickly as possible. If (Member name removed) hadn't kept changing her mind, it would have been done in a couple of weeks depending on the permits. You'll note that she didn't say the work was wrong. She was very happy with the results. Her only complaint was the time it took to complete the job and that was because of her changes and the inspections.
