Lonnie Burges General Contracting ripoff Unlicensed environmental violator blow hard lying b**tard can't even follow his own written contract Mineola Texas
We had a signed contract with Mr. Burges dated 1-29-06 to construct the slab for our new house. He did not even follow the quoted materials to be used. He skimped on the materials by not using what he quoted. He kept putting off the concrete pour date, he always had all these excuses, he refused to even follow the slab specifications as stated from the house plans, he said he could handle the entire job as far as slab, plumbing, constuction of the house, staining the slab and whatever else we so desired. When we asked him for his insurance certificate he kept blowing us off on it. Needless to say he never came thru with it because he never had insurance or the license to perform the plumbing. We finally stopped him after the 3rd time of canceling the pouring of the slab. Come to find out after we had several other contractors out to inspect what he had done we found out that the slab was not even 4" in some places, he was off over 8" on one of the forms, the plumbing was all screwed up, the outside perimiter beam was not deep enough or even as deep as he had quoted us that he was going to make it. This scum bag got $5500.00 out of us and we got nothing!!! He also sprays diesel fuel on the ground for termite treatment!!!!!
