During some routine repairs FJF Door Sales of Clinton Township, MI stuck an advertisement on the inside of my residence; something which I feel to be an inappropriate act.
A month back the garage door opener spring broke, and a quick call to the management company for our condo resulted in FJF Door Sales got it fixed the next morning. All of this was good and I was happy with the promptness and service provided. Since the garage had become the domain of Danielle’s new car I’m rarely in there with the door closed, so it wasn’t until yesterday evening I noticed the advertising decal that had been stuck to the inside of the garage door at eye level.
I find it ridiculous that this company feels that it is okay to stick their advertisement on the inside of one’s house after they have performed a repair.
Living in a condo makes this manner of advertising even more asinine, as garage doors (and other exterior elements) in this complex are handled by the condo association and not individual co-owners. Therefore, advertising directly to a co-owner is pointless.
Removing this advertisement has proven to be rather difficult. FJF chose to use a very cheap type of paper decal which tore when peeled and left behind a good deal of adhesive. This won’t be easy to remove since flat paint tends to absorb whatever has been applied to it and most adhesive removers are oil-based and won’t evaporate completely. The best recommendations I’ve found all involve cleaning the area and then repainting, but this’ll be a fair bit of work and have to wait until spring. All because one company chose to stick their ad to the inside of my house.
