πŸ“¬ Thank You Letter to Ronaldo – More Than a Job, It Was Emotional Support

From: Susan M., The Villages, FL
To: Ronaldo – Black Gold Flooring



Dear Ronaldo,

Today, I’m writing not just as a client, but as someone deeply grateful.

When I decided to renovate my home in The Villages, my dream was to create a beautiful, comfortable, and renewed space β€” a true personal refuge. What I didn’t know was that during this process, I’d learn the true value of working with people who genuinely care.

From the first day you walked into my home with your mobile showroom, bringing over 400 flooring samples, I knew I was in good hands. You helped me calmly choose the perfect luxury vinyl plank (LVP) to match my kitchen. You and your team also installed ceramic tile in the bathrooms, designed the backsplash, and completed my lanai remodel β€” all with excellence and attention to detail. Every member of your team was respectful, careful, and fully dedicated to the job.

I felt heard. And that is priceless.

Unfortunately, I hired another company to do the granite countertops, tempted by an $800 discount. I had sent clear messages specifying which stone should go in the kitchen and which in the bathrooms. It all seemed straightforward.

But when I came back from a three-week trip, my heart sank.

The blue-toned stone meant for the bathroom was installed in the kitchen, and the light stone meant for the kitchen was installed in the bathrooms. I called, showed them the texts and plans, but their response was cold: β€œWe followed the contract. Nothing can be done.”

I was devastated.

And then came you, Ronaldo.

Even though you had no connection to that part of the project, you sat beside me. You listened with patience, gave me strength, and reminded me that there was still beauty in my home. You and your team had delivered flawless work β€” and in the middle of my frustration, that brought comfort.

So, thank you β€” truly.

Thank you for guiding me through each choice with confidence.
Thank you for treating me with empathy and respect.
Thank you for delivering a job that was honest, transparent, and of the highest quality β€” just as promised.

Ronaldo, you didn’t just transform my home.
You cared for me.
Thank you.

With love, respect, and gratitude,
Susan M.
