    I wish there was a 0* option. Consumers BEWARE of Brian C Sisson(s), and his "company" Better…read moreContracting Services. We made the mistake of trusting him with a renovation of our late grandfathers cabin, and he has done nothing but destroy it, along with stealing $93910 worth of money and materials he stated we paid in full for. He will lie to you to the point where he can't even keep them straight. The second you question his integrity he becomes very defensive and angry. Luckily we are organized and have every interaction documented for our civil suit. He will cut corners to pocket more money, and make up "codes" to inflate your prices. He told us our kitchen cabinets had to be fire rated due to an Ulster County code....there is no such thing as a county code, let alone a NY State Code for this as confirmed by the code enforcement officer of our town. When we called to find out about these $24,000 cabinets (mind you we asked for unfinished in stock Home Depot cabinets to be painted) the code enforcement looked up our property only to find out there was NEVER ANY PERMITS FILED for the structural work done by Mr. Sisson. He had told us about interactions with the code officer, and how expensive and hard it was to obtain such permits. The code officer had never had a single interaction with Mr Sisson until the day she placed a stop work order on our property. When you ask for proof of receipts or orders he will not produce them, and will become instantly angry. He has an excuse and lie for everything, and will bully and blame you for all issues. He has removed structural beams, leaving our property unsafe with the risk of collapsing with the first snowfall. Estimates of work done by numerous other contractors deem his work unprofessional, sloppy, and subpar. The are all shocked to the point of laughing at what he's done. Everything needs to be ripped out and replaced due to his negligence. Do not trust this man with anything! Pictures below are of the work he performed, and the condition in which he left our property after being police escorted to get his tools. He had promised to exchange our materials the day he picked up his tools wih the officer....guess what, he brought nothing. We regret ever doing business with him, and we hope this review will prevent anyone from dealing with the headache Mr Sisson has brought upon our family.

    Had a tub to shower remodel of our very small bathroom. Crew arrived Monday for demo. Work went…read morewell at first but then got more and more disjointed. Thursday arrived with significant work left to be done with Friday deadline. Work was rushed from then on and the end result showed it. Paint job was terrible. Tile floor was also cobbed. Much other evidence of hurry up and finish attitude. Issues were addressed a week later after several calls and waiting around for work to be completed again. Overall a very stressful , inconvenient and unimpressive experience. Felt our little job wasn't a priority . Would not recommend this company as they seem to have too much work to handle with reliable, satisfactory work for every job taken on.

    DO NOT HIRE THIS COMPANY!! I originally decided to work with McDonald Construction for an interior…read moreremodel including new layout of kitchen, bathroom, and dining room, because I was impressed with the time Jeff (owner) took with me during the estimate process and I liked his attention to detail. However when the job started I didn't realize Jeff wouldn't be involved much at all. Instead the Foreman running the job didn't share the same values as Jeff, He is actually a complete HACK and I would never let him in my home again. Jeff's price was by far not the cheapest but I thought it would be worth it for a job well done. Instead all the electrical, plumbing, and HVAC was done by the foreman who clearly has no business to be in that line of work. It was all done incorrectly, with many shortcuts taken. He also lied and cheated his way through every inspection process that clearly needed to be done. After many missed deadlines, a job that was estimated to take 8 weeks was stretched to over 20 weeks where I was finally forced to remove this company from the job and spend more time and money finishing with other contractors. After just a few short months I am already having issues with the work McDonald Construction performed.
