Report Attachments
small claims counter, for details
This contractor is inscrupulous and not to be trusted. Stay away!
Specifically:
Manipulative change orders
Resisting calls for clarification of costs
Underestimate of fixture costs, calling 'mid-range' quality what is really low end quality
Unwillingness to reveal subcontractor costs in order to draw extra profit
Pushback against our desire to consider other subcontractors, so could maintain cozy relations with his own chums.
Illegitimate charges for hours he was not present
Multiple other violations of trust
We took to small claims and would likely have prevailed but ran out of time (moved homes and he had placed lien on home and our new home purchase would have fallen through, at great expense to us, had we waited for our time in small claims).
I strongly recommend that you no engage with this contractor. Taking the time now here just to try and help others. Feel free to contact me
