UPDATE: I am not the first person to take legal action against Cary Silver: https://trellis.law/case/36111/ef2019-4170/andrea-grunblatt-grunblatt-psychology-counseling-offices-p-c-ase-properties-llc-v-cary-silver-expert-craftsman-inc
I paid Cary a generous sum to complete my project with 15% of payment remaining upon completion. Do these photos look 85% complete?
Last week, Cary breached our contract and walked away when I pushed to understand when the work would be completed after *months* of delays. He didn't pick up my phone calls and when he said he'd call back, he didn't.
Cary is all lip service. He will tell you about the high quality work he does and then give you every excuse in the book about why he can't work or why the work is delayed (my favorite: his dog stole his glasses from his bedside table). He will quote his wife's great-grandmother saying, "people are incredible, they can see a fly sitting on someone's head but
they can't see an elephant sitting on their own nose." Um, what? The amount of time and money I have wasted is infuriating. I trusted Cary and was patient with him and he took advantage of that.
This is how he left my apartment, which previously had a fully functioning bathroom and kitchen. A totally destroyed mess with paint all over the new floors, rotting food in the fridge, and cigarette butts outside the entryway. Don't waste your time dealing with his mismanagement and poor communication. I have never felt so disrespected or violated in my life. The fact that his business is called The Expert Craftsman is laughable. read more
