I rented a walk behind concrete saw from Ahern. After unloading the 250 lb saw at the jobsite, I started it to the sound of a glorious ringing racket. I immediately turned it off, and noticed the 18 diameter diamond was completely loose. The nut was barely threaded on. Luckily, I had a 1.25 wrench in my truck and was able to tighten the blade. I then fired up the saw and began to cut, I quickly noticed the cut was super wide, and the concrete was chipping. I stopped the saw again to investigate and I realized the blade was bent.I now had a damaged concrete slab, had to stop work for the day, and drive 30 mins each way to swap out the saw. Thats two hours of travel time, plus diesel fuel, and an hour waiting for the rental exchange and paperwork. Ahern rentals was kind enough give me a $39 discount for my trouble, along with an attitude throughout my dealing with them.In my opinion, a $39 discount in exchange for my diesel fuel, 3 hours of my time, loading and unloading a 250 pound machine, and having a damaged slab is inadequate consideration for their negligent blade installation, failure to inspect their machine for proper operation prior to rental, and the damages They caused to my business.If you must do business with Ahern, please do so cautiously!
Their actual drivers speed, cut you off, and turn lights on to blind drivers. If you cant be professional in your work vehicle you obviously dont have professional employees.
Had exactly what I needed. Profesional service. Reasonable price.
