Easy to use- glad for the free delivery. Workers were efficient, professional, talented and friendly.
The price was good, the delivery time was as promised. My problem was with the installers. They did not speak very good english and the first thing that my husband and I tried to make clear to the installers was to not get close to the satelite and internet dish. They said that they understood, yet when I went back outside to check on them later, the roof of the carport was banging against the dish so hard that it actually dented it. I told them that was a big no no and that I now had no tv- they had knocked the dish out. SO I called the main Alan carport office and make a complaint - that not only did they knock the dish out but that also many many of their steel nails had been left in the driveway (I am still picking them up). SO on 2 occasions the main office contacted the installation team - and they were told that they checked - the tv worked which is a bold faced lie. A neighbor had walked over and witnessed that conversation that I had with the installers (or tried to with their evident limited understanding) I wasn't asking for much - I told them a couple hundred to compensate the dish repair - anything to show that they were trying to make this sale complete and right. I was told no. So would I recommend Alan's Carports and I have already had people stop - seeing the new carport and I do not recommend Alan's.
I've researched to high heaven and believe this to be the best deal for my money
Site is very simple to follow
So far everything is going as planed
Order and check out easy. Service and install Great
Web site is user friendly. Installation was quick. Very satisfy with product. I would greatly recommend it.
Easy to use online order
Very easy website to navigate. The installers were very professional and did a great job
How lone until delivery?the shelter was delivered in a timely manner and the crew that delivered was very professional. It was a pleasure to watch them work together with minimal communication. They all knew what to do and when to do it.
Selection and ordering was easy. I initially had some concerns and your staff quickly resolved my issues. My carport was delivered within 3-4 weeks. Installers were prompt, professional and quickly built the carport ensuring it's stability. I am very pleased with the carport and have been recommending you to all how will listen. P.S. Our dog loves it too!
Easy to use website and prices suit my wallet
Online site is great. Called into customer service today, she called back...VERY professional.
Delivery & setup was fantastic. I was away on vacation when they came to install, installation was cleaned & lookin great when I arrived home. Gate was closed & locked like I asked.
Overall very satisfied.
Thanks -R
Very smooth and efficient order process. Also, I was impressed with the customer service I received when I called with a technical question before ordering. Carport was assembled very quickly. Very impressed with the carport materials and workmanship. Overall I'm very satisfied!
Wasn't notified that the installers would be a day later than initially confirmed.
These guys rocked it. A whole month early with delivery too! Extremely satisfied.
Great easy to use and choose. Company needs to keep customer informed about delivery/setup time, instead of waiting for a call whenever.
Doing good so far. It is worth the money.
Easy to use site and good looking product at great price and shipping. Free installation enhances the business deal. Only issue was coordination in delivery date but we arranged our schedule to make it work.
Wow! Can't get any simpler!
Answer: I paid in October and it was installed in Dec last month.
Answer: Leave off the roll up doors. If you remove the Carolina doors you lose your warranty. But you can buy an opener and modify it so it maybe would work and lose your warranty on the opener if it quits.
Answer: No they deliver when they get 5 or 6 more buildings.
Answer: They use shady install contractors. I bought a garage online from Alan's and was sent a contract with name Carolina Carports on it. They are a total joke with 2 out of 5 star review. They've been out twice and still unable to install tiny 18x26 on new slab. I wouldn't hire them to put up a doghouse.
