If anyone is looking to have Levi do any work for you, please consider other options. The work is sloppy and the reliability and promises he makes are completely hollow. He was asked not to return to our home to complete the project as this was an infuriating choice and experience. I've detailed out the entire experience below.
The list of excuses as to why he didn't show or communicate are also endless..
after 25 days
Agreed Start Date: 6/3/2024
