I will never hire them again because of the lack of response and his response when I asked him about the cord.

We hired John "Devon" Buchanan, who goes by Devon, to install French doors and replace sliding…read moreglass doors, which had 2x4s scabbed onto the header of the opening to accommodate the smaller size of the sliding patio door. "Devon" couldn't figure this out, so he forced the new French doors into a hole too small, so we could not shut the doors and secure our home; he beat the new French doors up so much by forcing them into the scabbed hole, they had to be replaced. I am the one who had to take out the beat up doors, for Devon disappeared for almost a week and would not return our calls or texts. When he finally developed a pang of conscience, after our house had a huge tarp covered hole in it for week as it stormed outside, he called and explained that he had been arrested, which seems a frequent occurrence in his life. After he did return and apologize for lying to us via his wife, I pointed out to him the scabbed in 2x4s, which we removed making the hole large enough for the French doors; but, the newly installed doors wouldn't lock, and he had broken a lot of siding, so he asked if he could return the next day to finish up. Of course Devon did not return the next day and we have not heard from him since, because he blocked our number. My wife and I drove to his previous residence but were informed that he had been evicted. We were also told that he had done other customers as he has done us. As an update, we found where Devon lives and he had the nerve to blame us for his incompetence. In addition, he told us he would be at our house to fix all the vinyl siding that he broke, but of course he has not shown up again. I just got on a ladder and there is no J-channel installed on the side or top of the door, so we are having to hire another carpenter to fix Devon's sloppy, irresponsible "work." On top of that, he removed a brace from a down spout to remove vinyl siding and the down spout is, after high winds, falling down. We were informed that he has a substance abuse problems, emphasis on the pluralization, which explains his behavior. A quick Google search will show his various mug shots that substantiate his substance abuse problems. He seems like a nice guy at first, but he is not. Avoid John Devon Buccanan like the plague. Do not let him touch your house. Do not trust him, for he lacks honor, so doesn't care what shape he leaves your house in. We are posting a few pictures of Devon's sloppy work but there are more that show how he put no J-channel on the side of the doors, and other photos that show all the vinyl that he broke, as well as the downspot braces he ripped off and didn't replace, which caused the downspout to fall. We wish we had never met John Devon Bucchanan.

It has not been a good experience at all. The sales guy Eric V. Has proven not to be honest and reliable . The workers who show up to do the work are awesome and decent people . Our first experience which should have given us a clue,was when we had an appointment for Eric to come over and look at our house and give us a quote. Our appointment was at 10am. I was sitting in the living room and well after 10 am , Darrin called him to see if he got lost ... he proceeded to give Darrin attitude saying he was at our house at 9:45 and we didn't answer the door . So Darrin asked me why I didn't answer and I said because no one knocked on the door . Eric said he couldn't come back until 12:30. We had other plans but we wanted the estimate so we delayed them . Well, we have ring door bell.. so guess what ? He didn't come to our house ( even though clearly he had our address). Darrin called him back to let him know. When he showed up at 1230 he apologized because he went to two houses over instead of ours. That is minor but we just got more of the same after we signed the contract. We ran into problems with Eric and The worst part is the company owner refused to take our call saying he was too busy and whatever Eric says he stands behind, he's " his man". Well I guess we are old fashioned and honesty is important to us . Won't go into details but we are now talking with rinnai corporate about the outstanding issues. Hoping they can help or get involved with the local business . No matter how long you are in business you should care about the truth and doing the job you are paid to do . Sadly cayton has wrung us out on multiple issues. Update : a call with Rinnai customer service revealed that Cayton is not a certified dealer which might explain their lack of knowledge installing the wireless module ( though we were not told that by cayton). If you want a certified dealer , check with Piedmont Gas, has we known that's where we would have gone . But Rinnai Corp is going to take care of us and we don't recommend James l. cayton for anything .

I spent a lot of money with them to paint my house, put some kick plate in the kitchen, and replace…read morethe carpeting with flooring in the master bathroom area, prior to selling it. I got a painter who was a super nice person but not a painter. And he didn't tape so my trim on the doors had bleed over that I went through and touched up. The flooring that was put in was put in with chips in it and the transition board was not the correct type of transition board. Apparently, the owner blamed that on me, the customer, when I had nothing to do with buying the flooring or the transition board. Fortunately, when they finally made it back out to my house to fix the job they did poorly in the first place, Earl made it right and put a much nicer (and correct) transition piece in. The communication about arrival times was terrible and I had to drive from Hubert to Jacksonville to meet them at the house. Can't forget about the 3 trips to Lowe's I made for their employees to get materials they forgot to bring. Oh, and the piss left on the seat of my brand new toilets by the workers!!! Dave comes across as professional but he has a workforce that he doesn't treat well. The whole job left a really bad taste in my mouth and I would not recommend this company.
