This man took advantage of my grandfather and my family. He doesn't provide invoices or itemized receipts, he will continuously bother you for money for projects claiming they need more and more materials, he will also guilt you about needing money for his personal issues. He continuously demanded checks while slowly emptying my grandfathers tool chest while working on our home.
He also doesn't pay his workers, they do not receive adequate pay and do nearly all the work while the man stands around and runs his mouth.
He had 3 other men working on our home at one point and some of them didn't get paid at all.
He will lie and say he has experience and knowledge and even claim to be a tree doctor, but he helped me kill my grass and hibiscus quite quickly.
He is not a carpenter, he is not a welder, he's a con artist that's currently lying in order to receive disability
We trusted this man with our home and he created more problems than he helped with.
He would come to us asking for $500, $1,500, $2,000 or $3,000 more saying he could not complete the work without the money
He made us feel like we had no choice
He also will try to coerce you into taking on projects and financial burdens you weren't prepared for, like demanding to start a project before you're ready.
He gained our personal trust, he played on our sympathy, and once he realized he had it he took full advantage, thinking somehow my family would be a continuous income, like some kind of cash cow
He will walk around your home and find problems that need fixing, he will bad mouth other contractors work so that you don't work with them, and he isn't good for his work.
This man costed us even more money by breaking a fan he was supposed to install. He used plastic instead of metal to install it in an effort to cut corners. OIt fell out of the ceiling after he installed it and he then claimed "I didn't break it, why should I pay for a new one?"
He also goes back on his word, promising certain features and amenities in projects, and when you go to remind him about what he promised to do, he'll tell you he'll only do it for another check
