We hired Ballard Construction to do some work at our home. The "CEO" came out and did the bid but then had a subcontractor do all of the work. While this is not uncommon, the quality of the work by the subcontractor was terrible. The workers were not reliable and the finish work was terrible (they left light fixtures and wires on the outside of walls, put sheetrock over the gas key port next to our fireplace, did not cover tile floors while doing sheetrock), mounted outlets crooked. When reaching out to the "CEO", he made excuses and would commit to coming by to review the work and then not show up. When he did show up, he made excuses and where there were some issues with workmanship, he would recommend solutions that did not even meet base construction standards nor building codes (at least the subcontractor knew to correct him). Ultimately, I had to just negotiate a payment to get him out of my house and then hired another company to finish the work. When the new contractor and subcontractor walked through the area, they were amazed about how bad the work actually was. I had to pay them to correct almost everything - and, while I know that some contractors might say there is an issue when there isn't just to jack up the price - anyone could see the issues because they were so blatant. read more
