We used Topside Tent & Party Rentals for our wedding and highly recommend them. We worked directly with Lisa and were extremely impressed with her professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond to ensure that our wedding was a success. Their pricing is reasonable too. We will definitely use them for any of our future needs.

I would not recommend utilizing this business for any of your Party Needs. The company is over priced, however I still utilized their services, the tent that was brought was dirty. The tables and chairs were dirty and full of rust. One table was broken and I was not able to sit my guest at that table. It resembled something that just in a shed with no upkeep. Subsequently I had to clean both the tables and chairs from mud / dust and other food particles.

Prior to delivery of the rental products they require you to pay your full balance. Two weeks after my party was over I received a call stating that I had a balance of $75.50. The customer service to resolve this issue was atrocious at best and I do not agree with having to pay for a workers mistake/ miscalculation which seemed to be the error in my situation. A manager was never available for me to speak or dispute my issue and concern with and the representative from the company was rude with bad manners. I would not recommend utilizing this company as I'm sure there are other businesses and company's in the Area that offers better and reliable service and customer service.

I've called to get quotes on renting heated tents for Christmas and from the moment she answered the phone she was rude, I asked how she was doing today and she replied "can I help you" in a not so polite manner I asked again and it was the same reply. I continued to asked about the tent and with every reply it was the same attitude so I told her have a good day and hung up. I called back to get her name and speak to a manager she replied her name is "Christy" and that she was the manager and she also replied that she was giving off attitude because she could not here me instead of her stating that in the beginning.

In order to receive good customer service you have to give good service so I will be taking my money and business elsewhere, just thought I should share. Thanks for terrible phone service, luckily it wasn't in person.
