The project is now as "complete" as it will get. A project quoted at "3 weeks" took about 7 months to complete with much damage to items that was never fully fixed. A discount of less than 2% was applied to the final bill to account for workmanship defects and damage that will cost much more than the discount to hire out. Sean seems like he wants to do the right thing, but the crews he hired were incapable of delivering high quality work to match the high end of market pricing charged.
I wanted them out of my home rather than allowing them to continue to try to fix things and cause more damage. I considered filing a complaint with the CCB, but didn't want to spend even more time that I could be spending finding someone else to fix the defects.
Examples of some, but not all issues in the project:
Put nail through hot water plumbing
Scratched finish of refrigerator
Decided to use a custom hardwood desk as a sawhorse and sawed through the top: The top was replaced at Sean's cost, but was a hassle to deal with getting a new custom top ordered.
Stair stringer damaged and "fixed" with a large amount of plastic putty rather than attempting to glue the matching piece back in.
Disposed of drywall mud in an ornamental area near my hose, nothing is growing in this area now as a result and the soil will still have to be removed and replaced.
Left multitool cuts in the new hardwood flooring installed.
Made the new closet installed the wrong size. Corrected the width, but the height is still incorrect and they cut my hardwood doors that were supplied before construction began to fit without asking. The closet was supposed to be built to fit the provided doors. These are solid wood and will cost thousands to replace and any future doors now have to deal with a non standard closet height or I will need to hire someone to fix the height. read more
