In the summer of 2008, an Aurora employee, while painting a window on the side of my house, removed the screen while my wife was out, reached in and rifled through a free-standing jewelry box next to the window. He got away with $5000 worth of gold jewelry. The only reason we even noticed it missing is that an old earring that my wife hadn't worn for many years was found in the driveway by me. I thought nothing of it but brought it in the house. My wife asked me where I got it, and I told her it was on the ground outside. When she went upstairs and checked her jewelry box, she screamed! We filed a police report. Detectives went to to Aurora's office in Northboro, MA. But it could not be proven that any Aurora employee had taken the jewelry. All I can say is that it was definitely an Aurora employee who took the jewelry, but they would never admit it, nor did they offer any compensation for it. All of the employees on their crew are foreigners, and I suspect not legal citizens of this country. If you hire these people, you need to watch them closely while they are on your property. The paint job they did wasn't bad, but I later found that they simply painted over some pretty rotted wood. I asked them to replace any rot beforehand and I would pay the extra money for the work. They chose to just paint over it. Never again!
