Redbeacon is a portal that you go through [like Angie's list] to hire people they call "pros" who some are really not pros because they don't get into the sub contractor's work history like their web site says.  All they do is a background check for criminal and sexual offenses; no financial background is checked.  Which is how I ended up with this serial scammer, Warren Condell.  Had they done a financial check on him they would have found he previously scammed a woman when he was working for Home Advisor back in 2011.  Home Advisor severed their contract with him and he came to Redbeacon.  You would think after being sued he would stop his scammy ways but upon me doing further investigation on this guy I found out it dosen't really matter to him about being sued because according to Fulton County Civil records he and his son [Warren Condell jnr] have a page of judgements steming back to 2004; These people are litterally dead beat cliients who refuse to pay their bills, rent, and carnote. 

With that said, Redbeacon hires Warren Condell with or without the knowledge of this information. Because of them he is allowed to go into peoples homes on the guise of doing repairs and ripping them off.  Redbeacon states on their website that they stand behind their "pros".  Warren Condell is hardly no pro after what he did in 2011, to me, and others, he is not fit to be called a professionial.  What he did to me was [1] gave me a fraudulent proposal, [2] with his bullying ways, demanded that i honor the proposal and give him $500 upfront when the total invoice was only about $740. [3] Warren wanted me to ask another contractor who was there for a doubled amount of refund back so that he could get part of the money back as well as what I was entittled to.

After I signed the proposal and I saw what was going on I wanted out of it and I wanted my money back, Warren refused and didn't give the $500 back.  At first I told him I wanted him to pressure wash, paint top part of garage, and paint steps. My shower wall began to leak so we hired another contractor to fix the leak where he had to tear into the wall to get to the leak. I called him to switch the pressure wash job for the shower wall and I also wrote it out on his website. The next morning he came over with his pressure wash machine anyway[un beknownist to me and his daughter] and the pressure wash job was still on the proposal.  We were talking and I got distracted so I didn't read it; I just knew he did what I asked him to do which was to switch jobs but being the bully tough guy he tries to proclaim he didn't do it.  Besides the shoddy work he did, Warren only worked in my house for 1 day and 4 hours. Then, to make matters even worse he goes and rates himself using my name putting 4 stars behind it. I reported him to redbeacon using my name to enhance redbeacon score. Warren claims they put him on suspenion while they investigated him because in his countersuit he said I defamed his name when he lost money for 10 days or something like that.  I showed Redbeacon where he used my name and [at that time] 5 other people with the exact wording as mine. Redbeacon kept him on the list anyway.

After I won a judgement against him October 13, 2014 I called Redbeacon asking them why are they still keeping this guy on the list after I won a judgement against him. His supervisor, K C Casey told me to fax everything I've got on him to 6785567614; she also told me the incident was between he and I.  I tried to explain to her that she is allowing a serial scammer in unsuspecting people homes. He's lied about how many years he's been in business. When I hired him he his website said 15 yrs, then a year later he changed it to 25 yrs. My research shows he's only been in business since 2004, 10 yrs.  If he lie about something as small as that you have to wonder what else is he lying about.  KC knows about his lying about the years of service, she knows about the previous lawsuit, I sent her everything and they are still keeping him on their list so he can use other people's name as a fake review, scam home owners, and probably more

W C Construction / Redbeacon

After suing Warren Condell aka W C Construction I found that Redbeacon does not have any type of "personal conduct policy" in place when it comes to consumer vs. the sub. Whatever the sub does is held between you and that company, not Redbeacon. Regardless of how much hype is read on their website about they stand behind their pros and if you are not satisfied you will get $500 back, not any of that happened to me. At the time it was $1000, I sent in pictures of w c construction's shoddy work yet they kept him on their list for him to continue to perform unsatisfactory with other clients. Don't go by his reviews because if he used my name as a fake review with 4 stars behind it then he can fake his other reviews.  After I reported him to Redbeacon about him using my name as a fake review, they kept him on their list inspite of the proof I showed them.  Dealing with Redbeacon will be at your own risk; if the sub mess up or rips you off there is no recourse but a lawsuit.  Filing a complaint only gets hidden in the BBB.  If you notice there are no complaints anywhere online about Redbeacon; but, should you have a complaint to file the system may redirect you to the BBB in Foster City, Calif as it did me.  After I won a judgment against w c construction[handyman in Union City, Ga] Redbeacon continues to keep w c construction on their list under the guise of "the matter was between he and I". What about the public? He's still allowed to go into clients homes with leads provided by Redbeacon and do whatever!  Seeing that Redbeacon does not get rid of trash, whose to say how many other unqualified, dead beat sub's does Redbeacon have on their list? When W C Construction was with Home Adviser and was sued by a client from that company for bad business practices, Home Adviser waisted no time getting rid of him.   Redbeacon is still giving leads to W C Construction so he can make money but, he has not paid his judgment to me and does not intend on doing it.   W C Construction successfully hijacked my IP network on my computer so I couldn't view his Redbeacon website.  All of this should tell you what type of person and his mind set that Redbeacon has hired and is retaining so he can continue to do more harm to the public; far from the pros Redbeacon has quoted having on their website.  What kind of pro or professional does things like brings their client a fraudulent proposal, does not buy all of the materials with the money they were given, does not do what the client ask of them, doesn't do everything on the proposal, won't agree to let you out of the contract 1 hour after it was signed, goes behind your back and fake a review using your name knowing he cheated you out of decent work? I was able to do some trouble shooting to get back on his website but it's just the thought as to how far this vile person is willing to go to scam people out of money and unprofessional workmanship and how far Redbeacon will go to protect these type of individuals for a percentage of their pay . This guy is computer literate so once he gets your information its all over.  W C Construction has a picture on his website with 5 men, him being the second on the end holding a sign. He might change the picture after reading this. You can also Google Warren Condell to see his criminal mug shots. His son' s mug shot may appear in the search because he's a jnr. Again, Fulton County Court House has an entire page of lawsuits against Warren Condell. Redbeacon is providing this guy with leads you have to wonder what's he doing with his money [besides giving a % to Redbeacon] since he does not pay his bills. The guy ought to be rich by now.  In my first report I was typing fast and missing words which is why I'm redoing this.

I found all this out the hard way; everything you read on someones website is never ever true.  If it sounds too good chances are it's no good at all. Even if the website has some truth in it, you have to go through hoops and chains to reap the benefits.
