RUN! Now doing business as True Home Value, but is Thomas construction ... well known for their high-pressure sales. If I would have known beforehand, I would not have engaged in what was to be a 30min to 1 hour meeting with good ideas for enhancing my home to a 4+ hour, three different prices offered, must say yes on the spot meeting - - complete with the call to the boss to okay lowest 'final' pricing. When being pitched over $20,000 of 'improvements', I don't think it's beyond anyone who's paying that to ask for a little time to digest, plan, etc. The big pitch was their financing and the salesman wanted particulars of my finances to ensure I'd qualify. And... for all this and for all the dollars, there is no CAD design, no sketch of proposed changes... just a flour outline of the proposed location in my backyard - yes, FLOUR - borrowed from my pantry! And, as I said I couldn't give an answer right then (four different times), when the salesman left, everything - - all proposed pricing, flyers, etc., went with him... all that remained was the 4+ hour loss of time in my day.... They got my name from a sweepstakes they were talking about on Great Day St. Louis, this was SUPPOSED TO BE an 'idea exchange' and an overview of their products offered. Not a 4+ hour waterboarding experience... and again, had I known that True Home Value is actually Thomas Construction, the sweepstakes would have NEVER been entered. Lived and Learned... and lost four hours I will never get back...
