Review: This contractor was hired to do an addition/renovation at our property. Blackstone was negligent in following the terms of our contract. They did poor quality work, hired unprofessional sub-contactors, charged us thousands of extra dollars in costs and caused our project to be delayed five additional months. We have had a water leak in the crawlspace under our addition since it was built last November 2012. Their first solution was to put a ton of stones next to the house where the leak was. When that didn't work, they were confident that putting in the driveway would resolve the issue. When that didn't work, they attempted several times to add mortar and coat the walls from the inside. We finally asked to have a professional basement/foundation company brought in. Their person recommended a sump pump and Blackstone agreed to pay the cost of that which was around $2,300. We had an independent company, Thompson Waterproofing, also give an estimate and they agreed to do the job for $2,800 (the higher cost was due to the fact that they were including a french drain around the entire perimeter). Blackstone is now saying they don't have the money and will not reimburse us. There is also a window that was wrapped incorrectly and sloped so that we have water coming in under the window. They promised to fix this over a month ago but have still not done so. There are other issues of poor workmanship but at this point we just want the crawl space issue and window resolved.Desired Settlement: We want to be reimbursed $2,800 for the money we paid to [redacted] plus $200 for the cost to repair the window
