Customer Testimonials
Read on to see what past clients think of J.C. Pole Barns:
Joe Schneider, Google review – “Contacted him to get an estimate. He was rude and short from the beginning. I sent pictures and dimensions and he never got back to me. I contacted him multiple times and finally got him on the phone. Once he knew who I was he said he couldn’t hear and hung up. He won’t pick up phone or respond to email…very strange.” (1/5 rating)
Joe P Pvm, Pissed Consumer review – “They will not fix no repairs and if you contact them on the phone or Facebook they will block you. If I were you I would run away from this Company and don’t have no dealings with them.” (1/5 rating)
