IThis review echos the prior review, and goes even further into this contractor's horrible performance. A custom kitchen remodel was supposed to take two months. It took over SIX MONTHS. I had no kitchen during that entire time. He rarely showed up, and never called to advise when he would; it was just whenever he felt like it. He denied receiving voice mail messages or e-mails. I paid him $35,000. During the times he finally showed up, he presented "change orders" for work never discussed nor agreed upon. I am 83 years old, and he and his wife harassed me about the "change orders," including barging into my bedroom while I was sick in bed, demanding money for the change orders, when I didn't even know he was in my house! He charged an impermissible down payment of 30 percent BEFORE he even started the job (California law is 10%, or $1,000, whichever is less, I learned). He held my countertops hostage until I paid for change orders, never agreed to. I had to make a complaint to government officials in order for him install the countertops. When all was said and done, he ruined my electrical system in my kitchen and dining room, which he refused to repair. He left live wires underneath my cabinets. He caused such a leak in my kitchen that also flooded into my basement, and that also affected my irrigation system for my yard. The "mudding" on my ceiling is all rippled and bulging. The flooring he installed is buckling so much I have to replace it at a cost of $4,000. That expense, coupled with the $2,500 I have to spend on electrical issues, the $3,000 for the ceiling, and repair of the irrigation system, is simply outrageous. I am on a fixed income, and cannot begin afford to make the repairs to the disasters he created. Do not hire this horrible man. read more
