I wish I could give negative stars, but that's not an option.
1. The owner, Steve, is an absolute creep. He insisted I hug him and his workers on several occasions, always felt the need to stand close to me or put his arm around me. It was very uncomfortable.
2. He made ME write the contract, in which he said it would take him 3 days to remove a 60+ year old oak tree from my back yard. It took 3 weeks. Granted, rain was a factor early on, but he would show up from 4-7 to work each day since one of his workers was still in high school.
3. Within my contract, I was told I would have my yard repaired to its original condition with topsoil and sod but could possibly incur additional charges due to the large tree being removed as it would likely require "more than the norm." He put grass seed down but only laid the bare minimum of sod (per my direction) and it was laid with seams everywhere!
4. On final payment, he tried to increase the price "due to additional sod expenses" that he had already mentioned the price of previously, but was not matching the new price.
5. He broke my fence, my basement post, destroyed my lawn, took 3 weeks to complete the job, AND PUT A HOLE IN MY ROOF!
6. He told me they would be renting a crane and laying heavy mats on the lawn for protection when running equipment over it. He never rented a crane and never laid the mats. He said the mats were a laborious job....
7. He dropped a giant limb on my roof, puncturing a hole. The first time he sent a chimney guy to fix it. The chimney guy didn't patch the hole, rather he just stapled shingles over top!!!!!!
8. Then he sent a contractor out to fix the roof, who actually patched the hole, but missed replacing one of the bordering boards that was split in half.
9. Upon final payment, I ask my dad to drop off my check because I didn't want to deal with him anymore. After disputing the additional charges that he magically tacked on, we were still $600 over the initial quote. I told him I would pay the $600 more but not the $200 that magically appeared. When my dad arrived at another job site to give him the check, Steve threatened to beat my father up because he was "sick of dealing with us" and wanted to be done with us. He then proceed to tell my dad to sleep with one eye open because he was going to send "his boys" to f*** him up in the middle of the night. HE THREATENED HIM!!!!
Also, this Steve guy is like 350 lbs so enjoy his excessive sweat, belly tops, heavy panting.
