Complaint Review: Argon construction Trey Martin remodelingdr jeremy or john scott dean - Dallas Texas

source sited yelp reviewer

Worst experience I have ever had.  He walked off the job leaving four truck loads of dirt pilled up in my back yard.  I have the pictures to verify.  He even asked for more money than was contracted for and put a lien on my house when I did not pay it.  Beware of this company.  The quality of work that was done pretty much had to be redone.  Every time it rained water ran into my garage.  He quit half way through and demanded more money.

I called the number from the sign as I needed some roof repair work done as I had bees removed from the eve of my home, which left a hole in the roof. JD Scott and another young man came to my home Wednesday 4/6/16 to evaluate my issue. While there he brought up possible hail damage and had his guy look over my roof. He advised that I should file a claim with my homeowners insurance. We discussed options for temporarily fixing the hole. One way being the $299 repair where they would add plywood, tar paper, and shingles to cover the hole. Or Two, build up that area to match the rest of the roof best as possible as there are a total of three layers on the roof; which would cost about $1000. His guy placed a tarp over the hole as rain was in the immediate forecast. We did not set a time or date or confirm a plan for work to be done only that I would contact my insurance company. I filed a claim that evening on line. The next morning I received a call from a lady at . She asked if I had talked to myRemodelingDr.com insurance. I told her I completed form online but not talked with anyone; that I would let them know when I did. A few hours later I called my insurance company and they confirmed receipt of my claim and stated it would be two or three days for an adjuster to contact me. That evening JD called me wanting to come by and bring a contact and get the money. Red Flags went up for me so I stalled and told him I was unavailable. On 4/8/16 he sent a text saying he was going to send a guy by to frame down the tarp as the weather was to turn bad. I responded saying I was unavailable again. He became pushy trying to nail me down to meet him or for me to just leave the money hid. This all made me really question doing business with him as the text messages just kept going on even after I told him I wasn't comfortable signing a contract or putting money up without talking to my insurance yet. I did not respond to his last message on Friday night. I received a text message from him today wanting to come by and get the $299 for the work

they had done. I asked "work done" he immediately got aggressive and began to threaten and intimidate me in to paying him. Threatening a lien and even forcible foreclosure. He even went as far as threatening to tell my neighbors I wouldn't pay him. I have kept all of these text messages.

Hi JD.  Elizabeth Brown here,  I am not going to be available this evening as I have to work late to cover a coworker.

-----------------

No problem ma'am I'll see you tomorrow morning around 10

Regards

JD Scott

-----------------------

I wont be available tomorrow.

I talked to my insurance and they said someone will call me Monday or Tuesday.  I will call you after they call me.

------------------

4:31pm

No problem, I'll send one of my guys by to tack the frame because it's going to rain. If you would just leave the money hid and tell me where you put it.  That way you don't have to be there. Also we will be there when adjuster is there.

Regards

-----------------

Sorry JD but I think that is jumping the gun.  I am not in a position to put upfront money or sign a contract of any kind before even talking to my insurance.

------------------

4:37pm

No ma'am I apologize that's a misunderstanding I'm talking about the 299 roof repair that I explained I would deduct back off of the roof job

Regards

JD Scott

If you recall I stated would that be cash or check and you stated cash I've been said I would be back to get that later

Regards

JD Scott

----------------------

4:39

As far as the new roof and insurance is concerned no ma'am I wouldn't collect a dollar until they accepted it and provided the money for it

Regards

JD Scott

----------

Not sure yet which way we're going with that yet (patching with no build up the $299, as you said building it up would be closer to a $1000).

--------

Yes that's why I stated I would deduct any prior work price. I don't want to keep changing you more and more. That's the fairest way I know. I just want

to be fair

Regards

JD Scott

www.RemodelingDr.com

-------------

Thanks, I appreciate that.  But if the insurance doesn't pan out I cant do the $1000 right now.  I will keep my fingers crossed and will let you know as soon as I hear from them.

----------------

We will work it out I'm not going to leave a hole up there . We can temporary fix it cheaper. Just take care of the bill tomorrow and we can help any way  needed . We know as long as we do that we will earn your business long term

Regards

I'll have someone come by tomorrow. He's working done the street

What time will you be home? I need to come by to get our 299 for work preformed.

work performed?

--------------------

Yes as stated on sign 299 for roof repairs. Ma'am we don't put tarps on house just for the **** of it. I told you multiple times while standing there and  through text I charged 299 for that service. However I will deduct that off any other service performed. We talked about that several times. I've been asked are you paying in cash or check. You stated cash, I stated I'll come back and get the cash.

Regards

JD Scott

www.RemodelingDr.com

------------------

Putting a tarp up as a courtesy is not considered "work done".  And if it is then I will be more than happy to pay you through a civil court proceeding because I would love to hear you explain "work done" to a judge.

--------------------

No problem the burdens on you I clearly stated through text I was charging you to 299 you never disputed it until now no problem keep your 299 you clearly need it more than I do. I will file a lien on the property and it'll be up to you to hire an attorney and fight it so simple as that expect get a pee-lien notice in about 10 days. if you decide to pay it before the 10 days let me know I'll send somebody by there to get it if not no problem. and by the way I don't have to explain **** to nobody I can charge what I want to charge I told you before I perform the work what I charged. I'm well-versed in how to deal with this. Good luck to you

Regards

JD Scott

----------------------

Unfortunately for you the lien amount will not be 299 we both know after other fees are added on it's going to be three times that amount. I'm an honest man and do an honest day's work you're not going to rip me off and get away with it. And you still doing your yard and complained about your neighbor not  paying the tree guy you know what they call people that do that right

Regards

JD Scott

---------------------

JD,  I am not some uneducated single woman you are going to threaten and intimidate, I am a paralegal and work for a national law firm; I will be sending all of this information to my insurance company and filing a complaint with the Attorney General.

--------------------

10:40am

And you can forget any type of home equity loan on that property as soon as I file this pre lien notice all transactions will come to a screeching halt matter fact I'm going to file that immediately knowing that you are seeking to take out that loan you're not ripping me off it's the principle it's not the money

Regards

JD Scott

www.RemodelingDr.com

--------------------

I could care less who you work for I suggest you have your attorney to call me immediately because I will be following this link and if you are working for an attorney's office you know the burden will be upon you. not only that I might start going off in your neighbors letting them know you have problems  paying your bills. You're messing with the wrong one this is what I used to do for a living lady so you want to talk about messing with somebody uneducated not at first in this area you're definitely not talking about me I'll put you in  forcible foreclosure

Regards

JD Scott

-------------------

10:43am

I will give you an education in lien filing I'm done talking about it now I'll show you what I'm about. you think you're going to pull some redneck trailer park trash AZ the scam on me you got me messed up with somebody else lady

Message : What a horrible text message to send. As you grow older age a little bit you'll understand

how business works and the fact that sometimes property owners don't do what they say they are

going to do. That is the case here. Home Depot is owed 60,000, our flooring contractor is owed

40,000, and I am holding an account receivable close to 60,000 myself. What you don't do is walk

off the job. In these times what I've learned is that the crucial part is the continuation of the job.

That is why I short paid people yesterday was because we were floating payroll ourselves and

frankly could barely afford it. We were told we would have a bank wire yesterday morning and that

didn't happen. This is all transparent.

You're not welcome back at my job site. I have every intention of paying you for the days that you

worked but I don't want to see your face on the job site again; I will call law-enforcement and have

you forcibly removed. You don't know me.

Ask around, I am a man of principle.

youll learn that youre bottom line isnt the only thing that matters. people have lives. yesterday was

You showed your juvenile mindset by sending your late night 'emotional' text. I owe you some

hours and rest assured you'll be paid, but don't pretend to think that we are peers. It'll take you 20

shame on you, i do hope you pay the people you owe. and i hope youre made whole. i really cant

understand, how you can rack up thousands in debt to the people that work for you and be ok with

customer. Once I receive said payment I will disperse monies owed. You, I promise, will be the

very last one to receive said remittance. And you will only receive said remittance after I have a
