BEWARE OF THIS ****!!! I paid a deposit and Alec Laubscher blocked my mobile number days therafter. As mentioned in other complaints, Alec is very responsive and until he receives the deposit, thereafter it is a struggle to communicate. He requested I pay a 70% deposit even though the website states 50%. A+M Wendy Houses missed 3x dates which they committed to starting on site, citing the weather etc. (Also see other complaints). After the 3rd missed starting date my mobile number was blocked. My deposit of R13.8k was never refunded. Take note that A+M Wendy Houses & Summit Log & Nutec Homes is the same company and that all addresses provided on the websites are inaccurate/wrong.

*****/****!!! Alec Laubscher is a *****. I paid a deposit and he blocked my mobile number days therafter. As mentioned in other complaints, Alec is very responsive and until he receives the deposit, thereafter it is a struggle to communicate probably because he had no intention of delivering a quality product, or in my case to deliver any product at all. He requested I pay a 70% deposit even though the website states 50%. A+M Wendy Houses missed 3x dates which they committed to starting on site, lying everytime for why they could not make it to site, citing the weather etc. (Also see other complaints). After the 3rd missed starting date my mobile number was blocked. My deposit of R13.8k was never refunded. Take note that A+M Wendy Houses & Summit Log & Nutec Homes is the same company and that all addresses provided on the websites are inaccurate/wrong.

Before Alec's team came to build our wendy, I asked what thickness of steel the roof will be. His response was: Ons gebruik n 0.35 Dis meer as sterk genoeg Ander maatskappye gebruik 0.27 After completion, my husband noticed it says 0.25 thickness. He said they buy it as 0.35mm, said he will come back to me, he promised... His word means nothing. He has subsequently blocked me on whatsapp and doesnt respond to sms's or emails. How can one get hold of this bad businessman?

BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY. Bad workmanship, extortion and incomplete work. Payment terms are 50% deposit, 25% at roof level, 20% near completion and 5% upon completion. You will have all of Alec’s attention up until he receives his deposit. This company will work hard to get to roof level and then you will see a huge decrease in activity. Work slowed down significantly once Alec had 75% of the payment. Nearing completion, my mother was far too trusting and paid the 25% balance. However, she had not paid an amount of R2200.00 which was for a change she had made in window size. As soon as Alec received the 25% (which, I remind you, should have been the 20% near completion amount), he advised my mother that a further R4000.00 was needed and his team would not return until it was paid. This amount should have been R2200.00 and she had planned to pay it UPON completion. Back against the wall, and wanting the job completed, she then paid the R4000.00, we still do not know what the additional R1800.00 was for as he would not explain. His team returned for a few hours the day after the additional amount cleared in his account, and then that was it. Weeks later, the homes are still not complete. Facia boards are broken, the sliding door is skew with gaps on both sides, windows have no handles, corners are not finished, and the site is littered with their building materials and s****s. When the electricians came to install the solar panels they could not step foot on the roof as the sheeting used was exceptionally thin, we also noticed that normal nails (not roofing nails) were used on the roof, and most that were knocked in had missed the roof beams, so effectively doing nothing to keep the roof in place. We have been trying to get hold of Alec, to no avail. My dad was finally able to get hold of him using my cellphone number. When Alec heard who was calling him, he told my dad that he could not hear him. He finally answered a Whatsapp message and advised that his team have now started on a new site, and he doesn’t know when they will be able to return to complete the job, which he has been paid in full for, plus some. We have now had to pursue legal action (which has also gone ignored). Our lawyers have been receiving the same “I’m in a bad/noisy area, I can’t hear you” response my dad received. A job that was promised to be completed in just under 2 weeks has been going on for months now and counting! Shocking. We are grateful that we were able to warn family friends in time as they were initially impressed (as we all were) with this company. Thankfully they contacted another company instead. Alec also operates another business called Summit Log & Nutec Homes.

I contacted them for a Wendy House in October 2020. They sent a quote; I paid 50% of the deposit and we agreed on an installation date of 5 November. Since then I have received various excuses why the installation can't take place; heavy rain (more than once); strikes and finally that it was the end of the year. My contact person, Alec Laubscher undertook to pay the deposit back and to look at a new date at the beginning of January. I have not received the payment and he has also not been in contact with me regarding a new date. I have sent him two e-mails since his last communication. The landline and cell phone numbers provided on the quote do not work and e-mail is the only way of contact. At this point I just want my money back as I can't think they will deliver a good product.

Extremely bad service. A Hundred thousand rand job gone very bad. Alec is happy to take the money, called back to come and view the finished product, was shocked himself to see the end product, promised to be back with his team to fix, but now he takes no more calls, not even from my Lawyers. People please be warned, this man is destroying what used to be a life long successful family business that he has inherited. I just simply cannot believe that he continues to get away with this the way he does. Please find someone else to build and install your Wendys. I installed 7, and I wish I was warned prior to giving the order to A & M Wendys.

I have had a Wendy house installed as a servants quarters and a small shed installed by A+M Wendyhouses. Alec came out and did a quote for the structures on several occasion I explained that the 2m x 3m was for my domestic to live in therefore I would like this structure to be done properly. On receipt of the quote I paid in full as I do not believe in dept. A team of workers arrived on Monday 7th March and installed both structures. I was not at the house on completion of the job therefore on my return I sent Alec a few photos of items that I felt had not been done to a good standard. I explained that I was sure this was not his standard of work and please could he come and look at the workmanship himself so that we can discuss the few issues and solve them. As far as Alec is concerned I should have been at the house when the work was finished and therefore once his staff leave the property he takes it as the work is complete and acceptable. I feel due to the fact I have paid in full Alec sees no reason to sort this problem out. I have photos and feel these should be available for clients to see the bad workmanship. Nothing is ever done about sub standard work. Clients just pay.

During negotiations Alec said the roof will be treated with acid before painting the roof. On the day of installation the foreman said they never do it and that the paint will never peal off which is now happening. I have sent many emails to Alec before he replied and said he they would fix it. After two weeks nothing has happened and during our telephone conversation he said they will not do it and I can go to my lawyer. He then put the phone down. His number is 082329751<br>
