Stay away, dishonest company (Tim)

PLEASE REPORT TO Ontario consumer complaints board with all your details and screen shots

** as on Oct 11, NO UPDATE, NO CALL, NO REPLY called Multiple Times. **

Tim promised to install in 3-4 weeks in Feb 2022. It's June 2022. Patiently waited and accommodated on all changed dates. 18 weeks still no door. The only thing I got is a new date and then a new date and then a new date and then a new date. Have been asking for a refund. Stay away. I consider people putting positive reviews lucky as I am having a hard time getting my door installed or my money refunded. Paid $600 through intrac

COMPANY/TIM response is irrelevant; He is not interested in resolving the issue as just sent one text about the review with no confirmation for installation or refund.

We are working with you on resolving your concerns you have been made aware of my side of the story. I was hoping to resolve this with you so we can both move on.
We also ordered a custom sized garage door for your home which we still have and would like to install for your home as it cannot be cancelled once its been made.

Not Honest person and very unreliable ,

Tim at Speedy Overhead is totally unreliable, he failed to even start on the job. Back on September 05, 2021, he took the deposit and promised to install the doors in 4 to 6 weeks, and he made an excuse at the end of October about Covid parts shortage etc. We agreed to do it in the 2022 spring since I wanted to do the job in warmer weather.
In March he set the new date and didnt show up, then he promised 2 more times and he cancelled last minute twice, he made excuses that my family have an issue etc. he made 2 more appointments in April and cancelled again, in total 7 times he cancelled, I was fed up with him and asked him to refund my money, he gave me a hell of trouble and finally, I was going to the court to file the complaint and finally he refunded the money on May 30th, 2022 thanks to home star website.
I am in the process to hire someone else to install the doors and now about 15% cost has increased, and I have no choice but to bear the cost. I lost about a 10-month time period and numerous hours 500+ messages and finally successfully got my refund from him.
Mr. Tim is not an honest person, nor he is reliable, be careful and DO NOT give him your deposit at all. He took $1500 dollars from one of my friends and he is not replying to his messages. This was a commercial job supposed to be done by May 10th & today is June 19th and he is not replying to his messages. My friends lawyer will soon send him the papers and file the motion against him in a small court.

One more review will be coming by Lawrence Plaza with court documents.

Regards,
Bilal

This client decided to cancel his order long before he wrote this slanderous review. Ive tried to reach out to him on multiple occasions to attempt to help him out with his doors even after sending his refund. I was willing to do the job for him even after sending his refund for tge original price we quoted as i didnt want him to have to pay more through another provider. Unfortunatly I wasnt given the chance to make it right.
You have my number im ready and willing to help you in anyway i can to make things right.

Rude, Failed to install

Tim failed to even start on the job. He continued to reschedule saying he's sick, then he's very sick in bed again, and he's behind on other installs, etc. He refuses to give us back the deposit, stating it is his right to hold on to our deposit for 30 days, where the Ontario Consumers Protection clearly states 15 days. He continued to state that now he needs to figure out what to do with our door since we no longer want it. We gave our deposit back in October 19 promised within 8 weeks install.

Not sure how i came across a rude?
We always wanted to install the door for you guys which is why we are now stuck with the materials that we special ordered for your home. I tried to work with you but you were more interested in getting a discount on a price that was already more than fair. Once you were told we were not able to give a discount your proceeded to cancel the order and attempt to defame my business online which is not appreciated. Its also important to note all garage door manufacturers have been dealing with rapid price increases and supply chain disruptions for the last year so its not uncommon for delivery times to be severely impacted on custom doors.
* update may 14th 2022 customers door was installed for another client and deposit was refunded in full.

New Garage Doors installed done by Speedy. GREAT JOB!

Tim at Speedy Overhead again did such an amazing job on the garage doors we had installed. This time my inlaws got their doors replaced by Tim. We have used Speedy Overhead for many many years. We knew when we ordered our doors it would take a while as supply chain for many manufacturers are short on supply. We were not worried as we have been working with Tim for years and know he is trustworthy and will keep in touch with us and keep us updated.
We weren't going to have Tim come out in freezing cold weather. We told him once the weather is better we will get it done and thats what we did. My inlaws love their new doors and so glad they waited for nice weather to have them done.
I don't understand any of these other negative reviews. They sure don't sound legit. Sounds like competition trying to tarnish his business.

Like I have said we have used Tim at Speedy for many years for many friends and family and no one has ever had a bad thing to say.

We have always referred Speedy Overhead and will continue to do so.

Thanks again for everything Tim. Great guy! Great service.

STAY AWAY

Tim never shows up and just gives excuses. He took my deposit and never completed the install. He promised 6 weeks, it's now 7 months later with no door. Keeps promising he'll show up and never does. Promises to refund my deposit and never does. Do not use this guy. No way would I use him, you shouldn't either. He still has my money and refuses to complete the work or refund my depost.

REVIEWS LIKE THIS SHOULD NOT BEEN TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

Lets set the record straight....
Your door was back ordered by the manufacturer and a full refund was issued to you as we were unable to complete the job within your expectations. Seven months is a complete lie. You also failed to mention we have repaired the door for you twice before you finally decided to order the door. I also told you when you placed the order that the supply chain was unpredictable and thats why we repaired the door for you before you placed the order.

We will be in contact with our legal team to discuss a defamation lawsuit against the homeowner.

Your knew about the supply chain issues when ordering your doors with us. As you told me other companies were also saying it could take up to six months.
Your contract clearly said at least 8 weeks but you were well informed of all delays by the manufacturer.
Your door was ready to be installed but due to the -25 weather on the date we had arranged for installation we were attepting to reschedule for the following week. You proceeded to cancel your order and requested your deposit back which we provided right away.
Im sorry this project didnt work out hopefully you were able to find a solution to meet your needs.

Stay Away

Tim took my deposit and then gave me excuse after excuse for over a year, (COVID, back-order, family issue, rain, to hot...etc). My first installation date required me to take a day off work, remove two shelves in the garage and all the gear on them. He never showed and never called to apologize. I was the one calling him, not the other way around during this time frame. Stay away.

Still waiting for doors to be installed ... 12 months after order

Ordered doors in Feb 2021 with deposit, Told June 1 the doors have not been ordered yet. He put a rush on the doors, I had to call the manufacturer to find out the doors are in on Nov 2, Dec 7 first install date, 4 install dates later they are not installed, cancelled the day of the install each time, had to take days off work for nothing. The last cancellation was because he double booked me ... but i have been waiting longer, why did the other guy get his installed? Feb 4, 2022 still waiting for install. Will update when i get the install. Final update, several more cancellations after Feb 4, finally installed Feb 26. Nice install job, but was it worth the headache? You can make your own decision. I am in my 50's and this was the worst purchase of anything in my entire life, would i do it again, NO.

While there were many hurdles in getting these custom woodgrain doors from our supplier in the US during covid19.
The manufacturer should be taking the bad review not the installer that did everything to complete your job properly.
The job was completed for you as agreed we in fact lost money when it came to completing your job as the materials needed to complete it had increased by over 200% . But since i agreed to do the job for you i did it anyways. I hope your enjoying your new doors and im glad you thought my workmaship was very good.
We will take steps to treat our clients better in the future.
