I WAS a customer of Dixie Home Crafters in 2010...aka Gutter Guard...aka Gutter Guardian.  They did my gutter system and windows.  Now when I did the work with these guys they promised me that they would ALWAYS be around if anything ever happened to my stuff, and where are they now?  NO WHERE, THAT'S WHERE!

I used a service to get me some bids on some gutter work and an estimate on some windows.  As soon as I signed up for it, my phone exploded.  I got calls from all kinds of companies offering me bids on windows, gutters, and for some things I didn't even need, but that's a whole other story all together.  So Dixie came out, and gave me a HIGH PRESSURE, arm twisting, gut wrenching bid, which took almost 4 1/2 hours to do.  I mean, it was getting so late that the possums on my tree outside, knocked on my door, and told ME it was time for bed.  After I finally got the estimate, he sat me down at my dinner table, and told me he would get me a great price if I signed right now.  Now, my momma always told me, that only 2 kinds of people will ask you for that much money right now, that's hookers and drug dealers.  I didn't realize I was going to be dealing with either one of those types until I ran into them.  After much debating back and forth with myself.  I decided against it.  So you think they'd be done right...nope.  They called me 2 days later, and said that they could give me a better price.  They would send out a manager, and he would be able to get me a better price, so I said why not.  I like saving money just as much as the next guy.  Low and behold, they gave a really good price, so I decided to take it.  They came out, installed everything, and it seemed everything was going to be great.  I got new gutters and covers, new windows, and I even had a new woman in my life.  Well that's where the good stuff stopped.  The windows that were installed started to fall apart, and I haven't saved a d**n penny on my power bill as they promised I would.  They don't fit right, and I wish that I would have said something to the guy that came out to install them.  The gutters were overshooting, and none of the water that was supposed to go in my gutters made it in there, but rather made it all over the side of my house.  I called in and they said that someone would come out to look at the problems... except no one ever did.  10 phone calls later, and yet no one still showed up.  All these promises don't mean anything if you can't fix the problems that you caused.  Well I would wait a little bit, and call, and then wait a little more, and call back...and so on.  Well come to find out that in 2012 these guys are no longer in business, but rather no longer in business as DIXIE HOME CRAFTERS.  They are however in business as PARADISE HOME IMPROVEMENT.  It's funny how they say they can't help me because I'm a customer of their old company, well they can help me, but will charge me a boat load of money to do so.    Now, I'm sure you are all asking yourselves, how does he know it's the same company?  Well the guy who originally gave me the speech thanking me for doing work for his company is the guy I talked to on the phone who told me that they can't fix my problem, JEFF BECKER.  This lying sack of s*$@!  He starts yelling at me about how they are not the same company and he can't help me, but oddly enough, you are at the same address, with the same phone number, with the same employees, and the only thing that has changed is the name?

I decided to get some people to help me find out what I could do.  The more I dug, them more stuff I found out about this company.  They were once a company called Dixie Home Crafters, they got bought out by another company called Goense.  That company basically just buys already existing companies.  The head of that group goes by the name of Erik Bloom.  If you look at this companies portfolio, they have many companies like Dixie Home Crafters, or Paradise Home Improvement.  They basically drive it into the ground and then open another company and tell the poor people that got work done from them, that they can't help them.  Paradise Home Improvement is run by a guy named Joe Schuette, who is probably in bed with this Erik Bloom guy.  He was one of the owners of Dixie Home Crafters.  You see how all these pieces to the puzzle fit together now.  If you want a company to come install your stuff, and never be able to help you out, go with them.  Now I've learned my lesson.  Will you learn yours?  DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND STAY THE H**L AWAY!  You can look at their website and see it for yourselves.
