If there was a 0 star rating I would have used that.
Eric Elofson is a nice guy when he is telling you everything you want to hear, lying to your face and taking your money. Then, Good Luck getting in touch with him. He disappears off the face of the earth. He does not return phone calls, texts or other forms of communication until you try multiple times over several days and then 2 or 3 days later he will send you a one line message saying is coming on a certain day. But, he NEVER comes. Because he is a liar. He will make up more excuses then you could ever imagine. You have heard it all from this coward. He has no interest in you or the job he said he would do for you. He quite simply does not care. Because he is a liar and a thief and a coward.
Luckily for me, I live in a summer community with 275 other families, under a condo association. I was the point person for this project to replace both hoops at our basketball court. After dealing with his lies, excuses and broken promises I turned it over to our condo association. Luckily for us we have our own attorney and once he was threatened with legal action multiple times he finally came. This was 6 weeks after his original target date. Six weeks of the summer where all the kids did not have the new hoops that we all paid for. Once he had our $3000 deposit, he was nowhere to be found unless you call and call and call and call. Then he will lie some more. Then you will keep calling. Then he will lie some more. Then he will promise, and not show. Then he will lie, and not show. Then he will disappear, then he will lie.
When he did come....what a joke. He showed up without the right equipment so had to leave the job site for two hours to get the right thing. He had two middle-aged overweight clowns with him who clearly had never done this work before and could barely climb the staging. Oh yeah-they had no step ladder and no level. Why would you need those when installing basketball hoops? Then Eric had to leave again because he had the wrong size bolts for part of the assembly. When they were done one hoop was 9'11' and one was 9' 9 3/4". This was after ASSURING me they would both ABSOLUTELY, DEFINITELY BE EXACTLY 10 FEET. He had NO ANSWERS for all of my complaints about him and just excuse after excuse about why the hoops are the wrong height. He didn't care and he got in his truck and left. Maybe that was the best thing for us. Also, while I was arguing with Eric one of his stooges threatened me. Nice professional business huh? The other dirtbag that was with him also yelled things at us as he was leaving. Nice guys huh? Nice professional business Eric. So now we have to figure out how to fix his terrible work.
In short DON'T EVER HIRE ERIC ELOFSON (MR HOOP) FOR YOUR PROJECT. HE IS A LIAR AND WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND THEN DISAPPEAR!! WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!!!!!!! read more
