Buyer Beware! Unfinished Construction of Full Bathroom Remodel!…read more I was jilted AGAIN! I found Fodor & Sons on Thumbtack after a devastating experience with a local contractor who scammed me and my fiancé of thousands of dollars back in December 2023 (talk about bad luck!). When we first met Steven Fodor he was very professional and empathetic of our previous situation. He even stated how he hates that contractors get a bad rep because of a few bad apples. He reassured us that his company (Fodor & Sons) was not like the rest. We liked Steven, he was well spoken, punctual and he went by the book. He efficiently went through the process of getting a permit for our bathroom remodel. Even the city inspector knew Steven and spoke highly of him. You can imagine our relief in finding a "good" contractor or so we thought. Shortly after, things began to go awry. Steven's subcontractor who started doing our bathroom tiling suddenly stopped working and stopped answering Steven's calls. Steven reassured us that despite this setback he had his own W2 workers that would do the job. We trusted him. Weeks later his workers came and started tiling. They were slow, inefficient and poorly skilled. So much so, my fiancé and I had to change our tile selection in the middle of the project because the workers were breaking them and the finishings looked terrible. We discussed with Steven about changing the tile to a smaller tile which he obliged. Unfortunately his workers didn't do a great job with the new tile either (see pictures below). After confronting Steven about our concerns with the appearance of the bathroom, he repeatedly stated that they would fix the issues. Unfortunately, that was a lie. Instead Steven had his workers remove all of their tools from our property and he simply stopped answering our calls, texts or emails. It has now been 3 weeks since we have spoken or seen Steven Fodor. We have sent demand emails and letters; unfortunately Steven refuses to respond, let alone finish the work he started. Please be cautious if you plan to do business with Fodor & Sons. We currently have a bathroom with an open permit that is unfinished and unusable because of his abandonment. These pictures below show the poor tiling and skill of his workers.

Signed contract on October 24, 2017, for a total amount of $60,000.00 with CDM Construction…read more I previously reviewed this company, but somehow it was taken down. I'd also like to add an addendum to the below review: we pursued a legal recourse due to the items listed below, but during a discovery period we were informed by our counsel that the owner (Mac Robinson III) and his company already had a judgement filed against them by another plaintiff and that they had filed for bankruptcy twice. If you do business with this company, be advised that you will not be able to seek damages if the work is not to your liking. Original Review: Per the contract that was supplied by CDM Construction and signed by us, the entirety of the project should have been completed in 100 days. CDM Construction did not list in the contract that they would need any additional time related to weather delays. Only counting Monday through Friday and dismissing the following holidays (Election Day, Veteran's Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, & President's Day) the date of project completion should have been March 21st. As of today, this project is still not complete. (200+ (twice the contract time length) days total and counting) Signed contract for $60,000.00. Total paid to CDM construction to date: $74,475.00. Amount paid to date to other contractors to to finish portions of CDM's work or repair damages caused by CDM to date: $8,655.00. Costs still associated that have not been finalized including materials and labor: grading, additional concrete to complete concrete pour, floor & tile repair, demo, & carpentry to fix incorrect buildout of interior floor height. Total amount over CDM estimate $21,130.00 or 38% over estimate with a number that will continue to grow as all repairs are finalized. Craftsmanship- -related to height of the floor/interior buildout. This lead to additional concrete (a solution invented by CDM Construction) needing poured outside which still didn't fix the issue and only served to drive up the cost. From an operations standpoint, we are significantly higher than the guests we are serving. It was not built according to the plans submitted by a licensed architect that were stamped and approved by Warren County Building & Zoning Department, nor was this architect consulted during the buildout. -the floor installed in January of this year has bubbled up in 5 different spots. This lead to damaging of the floor in multiple spots as well. The entire floor will need replaced less than 6 months after install. -electricity and lights needed to be fixed from CDM Construction rewiring building. 5 ballasts went from working in October of 2017 to not working in the spring of 2018. -CDM Construction twice refrained from properly using plastic draping that lead to dust, debris, and dirt covering portions of the property that were not associated with the buildout. Entire cleanup was performed by our staff, on both occasions, and additional dust lead to damages to a refrigeration unit. Other matters pertinent to our grievance: - The only work done in first month after contract signing included taking down a tree on 11/3/17; next site work was not performed until 11/30/17. This pushed an entire month of production further into winter. - December conversation with Mac Robinson III, owner/representative of CDM Construction, saying he needed additional money for concrete pour. This was off-schedule and not outlined in the contract. Mr. Robinson positioned to us as, "the concrete company needs a down payment" in order to proceed with the project. Payment of $16,000.00 was made on 12/15/2017. Concrete would not be poured until 3/15/18 and after an additional downpayment that was necessary to the concrete company (due to the need for more concrete, because the interior buildout was done incorrectly (See Above)) - Numerous days/weeks where zero activity was present in the middle of project timeline not related to weather or supplies. Regular delays in project related employees of CDM Construction being in Florida & Texas. - Have one 4' x 10' (size approximate) portion of concrete still to pour, along with final site clean-up, and demanded additional money to finish the job even with the overages that are listed above. - Numerous times during our working relationship with Mr. Robinson he displayed a lack of organizational abilities necessary for budget keeping, accounting, and management. He has been unable to provide full receipts for materials and timecards for his employees. Another example was he was caught attempting to overbill us for the project by $3000.00 and $2000.00 when a clear payment was presented to him via text messages on 7/27 and 7/31, respectively.
