I don't usually complain about to much , but this really has been bugging Me. Last Oct I was called from by a Fella ( wont mention any names ) who represented Salvatore Pizza in Quebec . They were opening a new restaurant on Sackville Dr. Right in My backyard . Being a Sackville based business I was interested in helping them out .
The restaurant could not open as the wrong size kitchen sink was installed in the building of the store. I was asked to remove the double commercial sink and install a new triple comp sink and second set of taps . It was not an easy job but We wanted to help out and do the work . We came in the next morning and started by removing the old sink and taps. We tried to install the new sink and second set of taps , but noting lined up . The old grease trap was cemented into the floor and was in the way of the new sink. We told the Representative onsite from Salvatore Pizza from Quebec what needed to be done. He agreed and We had to jack hammer up the grease trap and move it . After renting a jack hammer and getting the old grease trap out, we cemented the hole back in . But the grease trap was too tall for the new sink , again We told the Contact on site ( from Salvatore Pizza) We needed a low profile grease trap going forward. He asked if We could find one. We called around and found one. told Him the price and He said go a head . So We went and picked it up , installed it with new piping and fittings. It was very late now so We left that night and came back next morning to finish up . We did it , got the store done so They could pass Their inspection to sell Food and open on time .
Well than the fun started .. We submitted Our bill to Head Office in Quebec... and in short ... I talked to many Employees from Salvatore Pizza ( In accounts payable ) who kept passing the buck or had to talk to someone else .. etc .. etc. Also passed to Salvatore Construction ... who didnt do anything either .. here it is May ... cant get any answers , phone calls returned to try and get My invoice paid . I have not given up or stop trying , but wanted to let ALL My Friends , Family , Contractor Friends .. and other Business to be weary of This so called Family Run Business from Quebec , what My experience was like dealing with Them ...
