* I began to get quotes from contractors for demolition in preparation for rebuilding my house. The Dura Clean crew saw that this was happening called the sales rep, project manager (Dan). I got a call from Dan asking soon after asking what I was doing. I explained I was getting quotes for demo and for rebuilding the house. He became noticeably agitated from the sound of his voice and asked me stay at the house; he would be there in 30 to 45minutes. When Dura Clean Dan arrived I had another contractor looking over the property in preparation to make to give me a quote. Dan arrived and began to verbally fight and insult the contractor, Dan then asked me to come out to his car to talk. It is at this point he said he thought had got all the work, Inventory, Restoration, Demolition and reconstruction. I told Dan he was
welcome to give me an estimate and be involved. He then came back in the burned house (80% to 90% destroyed). The other contractor explained that everything but the slab and cinder block exterior walls would need to go. Dan jumped in
saying that all that needed to done was spraying a mold smell retardant inside walls. Replace part of the roof and some of the ceiling. I told him that I thought it was too far gone to just fix part of the house. He got very mad, called the other contractor names and left.

 I got a call about 30 minutes later saying if I did not agree to give him all the business he was going to pull the
Dura Clean Crew currently working on the inventory and restoration. I said again he was welcome to bid on the work, he hung up on me and the works left that afternoon with the job incomplete.

To have an account representative behave in the manner Dan did is embarrassing,unprofessional, intimidating and for Dura Clean to QUIT in the middle of the business that they had the go ahead on caused me undue stress at a time when I had to much stress already. I had to hire people to complete the unfinished work of Dura Clean.

* I had to hired workers to compete the remainder of the job that DURA CLEAN quit in the middle to try and force me to give all the work to them, DEMO, REBUILD of house. The crew I hired to complete the work and move remaining contents to a storage locker.

This cost me an additional $1000 +
