Must be knock on the neighborhood doors day. Power Home Remodeling stopped by to schedule for estimate on sidings. Saying that our Aluminum sidings are better replaced with vinyl. I later realized that they had come before but we cancelled the estimate schedule because they would want to come in. This time I did not let the estimate guy in and refused to let him talk to both me and my wife which was what they insisted. After measuring the house at 7pm, he tried again to want to speak with Nadia but I refused, Dom then tried to leave without giving estimates but when I asked, he kindly threw a number: for roof it's around $27k, and for sidings it's around $40k, and that the warranty is lifetime, for broken parts, leaks, etc. Not sure if the price is right as at that kind of price, you can just look for a new house. I explained to my wife that this is a learning opportunity since the reviews on PHR are not bad, meaning it's probably legit, and that these two guys are very respectful. Plus I had promised Nick the first guy that I won't cancel on him. I've used to despise marketing sales people, until I started working for SPG as well as gotten to know Brian better. These people are trying to make it in life and they are treating potential customers with respect. It is only the sales people who don't show others respect, like saying "How could you not have TV, etc." and making condescending remarks that I despise.
The second one stopped by was Altice (AKA Optimum) stopped by to give their rates. Trying to claim that they have better quality now (used to be infamously known for their bad connection service) with fiber optics and lower rates than Verizon, i.e. $25 for 300mbps. I told the guy I'll check the review.
