RUN! First, you get Roger, there salesman, who promises you the world and a job "done better than before" when it came to our flood repair in the basement. He kept asking "have you gotten the check" every few days. Once he got the approval from his bid to the insurance, he got a massive (60%) down payment. Then he was gone and to never hear from again. He promised if we let them keep the painting budget ($1600) and do the painting ourselves, then we don't have to come up with the $1k deductible. Well......after no word from ANYONE...finally our consistent calls, two months later the owner Dallas shows up to see the job. He hires all subcontractors to do the job. Not one employee from Midwest Home. Once the job is done, we pay then the rest of the claim! TO THE PENNY! Then....two months down the road, we get invoices and threats from multiple subs. DALLAS DIDNT PAY THEM but was quick to cash our checks. Well.....we are constantly texting, emailing, calling...and nothing. Crickets! Then we get a threat that a lien will be put on our house if the invoice isn't paid by Dallas. After months of no contact, we get an erroneous bill in the mail to pay Dallas MORE!! ARE YOU KIDDING!
Not only did we sacrifice the $1550 budget for painting, we sacrificed the $1450 budget for the window replacement. And Dallas received all that $$$ in his pocket for work he never did! The invoice has NO DETAILS as to where he got his numbers and says we also owe him for caulking the trim. Seriously? Trim is suppossed to be caulked to the wall. Not to mention, that's how it was done before the flood.
Well, instead of reaching out and getting back to us, he sends this bill with no words or explanation. And ironically, the bill is really close to the amount of the sub that is threatening to put a lean on our home.
So Dallas robbed Peter to pay Paul. And now, the money is gone with certain subs not paid.
And the funny thing is, if I go to court (which we will if he doesn't respond and go line by line over the entire claim) he will end up having to pay us a refund, along with the subs invoices that haven't been paid. I'm willing to let it all go and let him keep all the $ of the work he DIDNT do on the claim, if he would just pay the dang contractors. Instead, he billed us for more money because he spent it elsewhere.
And till this day.....no call, text, or email from ANYONE With Midwest Home.
NO DOUBT those positive reviews are from friends, coworkers and employees that he asked to write a review. They are bogus.
RUN!! Don't hire them! In fact, hire his son. Who is honest, hardworking, and doesn't screw you over and is so respectful. Oh, and returns calls! read more
