I believe the owner's name of this business is Coltis Terry. He saw me in my yard and jumped out of his car to hand me his magnetic "calling card". Several months later I called him to come assemble two tall 72" ( 6 feet ) cabinets. We scheduled it for July 26, 2023. He came alone and spent about an hour on each cabinet. While working on the second shelf, he started murmuring and complaining about running late and having to "wrap this up" as quickly as possible. When he had supposedly finished the project, he handed me a ziplock bag with screws and wooden dowels or pegs in it. I looked at him in stunned confusion ! The nerve of him!
Me, at 64 years old, know that this can't be good! However the 2 cabinets seemed solid so I didn't complain. I should have complained and asked that he redo or find out where the screws and pegs belong. I should have not paid him until the job was completed correctly. He told me he would come back if there was a problem. Again, he was rushing to leave because he was late for something. Is this some sort of SCAM TACTIC to appear to be running late so you can quickly pay him with a verbal guarantee ?? No invoice, no paperwork, nothing in writing and it was a Zelle transaction.
I have been duped. His price was reasonable $160 but it appears he did not have the required skills to correctly put the cabinets together OR perhaps he took advantage of this senior citizen woman and just haphazardly threw the last cabinet together and make a quick exit.
Nonetheless, I've given California Multi Services plenty enough time to respond by text, email, call or visit. This business did a very poor job, the cabinet started falling apart in August 2023. Not wanting to believe that this man abandoned his verbal commitment and actually lied to me, I kept calling and finally texted him. The doors are horribly lopsided and difficult to open and close and the front of the baseboard fell off which should have been secured with the unused wooden pegs! In past years, my younger years, I personally have put together all of my book shelves and cabinets. I thought that I would allow Coltis from California Multi Svcs to take on this task. Big mistake! Beware of his shabby, unprofessional work and demeanor. My next stop is the Better Business Bureau. read more
