Installation of Ikea cupboards
PEG prides itself for installing IKEA cupboards. PEG's team came four times to install the kitchen at our house. The first time, they could not level the cupboards, so left early, leaving the site full of scattered debris and garbage. They returned a week later and still could not solve the problem. Two weeks later they returned with a manager and left STILL NOT ABLE TO LEVEL THE CUPBOARDS.
On the fourth visit, a month later, they returned. It was only with the help of my contractor, who was supposed to be doing other work, that they were able to finish the job. Now our kitchen was delayed by a MONTH. PEG offered partial compensation for the delay, but would not waive payment even though the delay meant an additional month of rent in a condo and storage fees. As the company came well-recommended by my designer, the disappointment at their response has had an impact on our family as we await the completion of the kitchen. The delay by PEG means we are in the basement, meanwhile, using the nook there until the counter is installed and we have a sink. Very little responsibility taken on by PEG for this mess.

- Company Response
Dear Kim,
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback about our services. We are so sorry that you are disappointed with our services. Kitchen renovations can be chaotic even at the best of times which is why we always encourage our customers to follow the steps of our renovation process thoroughly. As mentioned to you in our corresponding emails, your designer omitted the first step which was having PEG take measurements of your kitchen. As explained, measurements are not just for the height and width of the walls but we also check if the walls are square and perpendicular. In your case, we would have been able to advise your contractor and designer on what needed to be done to prepare your walls for your installation as your walls are curved and also not perpendicular.
We acknowledge, with regret, that your kitchen installation took longer than anticipated which is why we refunded half of the cost of your installation. And though there was a delay, we have completed your kitchen installation as contracted.
At PEG, we take responsibility for correcting any errors that may occur during installation and we take pride in the fact that we have never walked away from a job, including yours, in the 27 years that we have been in business.
Sincerely,
PEG Customer Care Team
