Here is my response to the complaint by *** *** of the property: *** *** *** *** *** ***.CS*** Construction, LLC did have an agreement for a $100,loan for a project with Mr*** *** and for reasons beyond our control the project went into litigation and we
were not able to receive all of our money backSo we agreed to roll it over into another project in ***/KaneoheIt was to build the house with all of Mr***s funds and a partial payment of $50,would be paid back with Labor on our endThe contract amount was $458,but again there were obstacles beyond our controlThere was a main power line that ran directly underneath where the house was to be constructedThe complete time we were there, the plans for *** and going forward with the work was on the OwnerIt was his responsibility not CS*** Construction, LLCAt this time the *** work was estimated at $60,in addition to the construction costThis was a big issue that was never dealt with yetSo the quote for Mr*** of $458,was the amount he was suppose to pay out for all the work that included my $50,pay backIf you add his numbers $458,000.00-$5,840.00-$3,733.00-$1,472.00-$5,660.00-$11,660.00= $378,is still $70,short of finish plus the $60,for the *** for ***At that time Mr*** informed us he was out of money, and for these reasons we removed ourselves from Mr***s projectI believe his accounting is incorrect and it doesn’t account for the all the Labor I did for him at another personal property located on *** ***, *** ** ***That was labor that he was never invoiced for payment but should have been worked out in trade to offset any interest.Respectfully,Christopher *S***

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because:CS***'s response is totally unacceptable because it does not provide any resolution to the complaint His complaint response is essentially a collection of rambling excuses and allegations that attempt to shift the blame away from his failure to manage the project and meet his responsibilities under the construction agreement CS*** mismanaged the project, abandoned the project prior to completing the project scope and failed miserably to meet the construction schedule This is a the result of CS***'s own failure to manage the project He left us with an unfinished house which could not be occupied and a loan payment with the bank In addition, he caused damages to the our property in the process of construction that he did not repair and he left construction debris on the worksite that we had to remove at our expense. CS*** Construction has a history of starting projects and failing to complete them Since filing our complaint with the Revdex.com we have discovered two other projects that CS*** Construction failed to complete and left the clients in a similar position as us CS***'s response to our complaint contains numerous unsubstantiated statements and allegations which attempts to justified his mismanagement of our project We addressed two statements in a previous rely to the Revdex.com and provided documentation showing that his statements were falseThese are two examples of his statements and allegations We could provide documentation to respond to his other unsubstantiated, statements and allegations but he has no interest in actually resolving the complaint.It appears the resolution to our complaint will not be through the Revdex.com but will require litigation, the contractor licensing board and RICO Hopefully, our complaint to the Revdex.com will help caution any future perspective clients from hiring CS*** Construction for their project Our rating of this contractor is "F"

First I would like to address issues that are not CS*** Construction, LLC’s responsibilitiesas per *** ***’s follow up letterPlease note the following:•*** *** of *** *** has no legal affiliation with CS*** Construction, LLC.•CS*** Construction, LLC has no obligation to the *** that ran directly under the center of the home which powers a complete subdivision further up from the the *** property(HUGE IMPORTANCE)As *** explains under the *** part of his letter which takes up 50% of his letter, again CS*** has nothing to do with the *** lineIt is purely the Owners responsibilityIt’s not part of my contract and there was no exchange of money for the *** *** relocation. •Regarding the *** *** property Own *** is explaining it like I was contracted out to do work for him thereI deny that he was the owner of the property facilitating the workFor me it was helping him out on his personal property, while we worked on the bigger project which was the house and new build at the *** PlaceThe checks listed for the *** *** property were paid directly to the Vendors from the OwnerHis statement regarding the $3,cash he paid us up front is untrueAll payments received from *** was always via checkThe money he listed that would’ve have been paid to CS*** Construction, LLC was used for equipment rental, hauling and equipment repairLike the tire repair in which it was damaged on his property working on his projectIf I was to have charged him for the work that he’s stating in the letter which again there was no contract for, the job would have cost him $15,000.00.To s*rize both letters, the total contract price for the home was $458,We always informed *** *** at l*** times that’s the amount he would need to complete his 3,000+ square foot homeI never ever told him to pull out only $350,dollarsAs part of the build and part of my pay back to him was after the $458,was all paid outThe house was well over $500,to build that’s where my money I owed him was to be the money I paid back.As for him finding out about the subcontractors that was not paid, again he was told timesthat they needed to be paidIf there were some qualified buyers for the property, produce the paperwork for his claim don’t just state it. Really no explanation: well here is the explanation the money is in the house and you are short about $150,to complete itAs far as the Revdex.com complaints you are the only one.We feel like we’re explaining this again for *** and we thank you for listening to our end of what we’ve actually gone through for this projectThank you.Respectfully,Christopher AS***

[redacted] authored the loan agreement and both signed.It is correct that work was done at the [redacted] property sometime in Jan-Feb 2014 but that had nothing to do with the [redacted] house.Chris S[redacted] asked $3,500 for the work to be done.The work included clearing an area of grass, spreading materials and movingtwo containers that were already located in the property. This was done over a month on several weekends. We paid $1,484.54,check # 2001,to the Trash Man for trash removal on 1/29/14, and three amounts $1,188.02, $1,188.02, and $1159.94,paid through credit card, (3 deliveries in one day) to [redacted] for materials.S[redacted] received $3,000.00 cash on 1/13/2014 up front and $757.94 & $386.93 on 3/24/2014 for tyre damaged on the job. ** scoured the tyre from [redacted]Per our estimated breakdown of the finances, it shows that we only owe $9,563.30 to the builder from the Contract price. Please see attached PDF file for the chart. Per the contract, the house should have been completed.[redacted]: As part of due diligence we talked [redacted],[redacted] Senior Engineer.We received a letter dated 6/6/2001 & 1/10/2012. [redacted] would agree to rewrite easement and move the 'trunk line' at our cost. This was all part of planning of new home construction along with sewer & H20 and all departments involved. In June 2, 2014, [redacted] was referred to us by **.These letters were turned over to ** for the final plans.Why the surprise.An agreement dated July 2014 was made with above reference [redacted] (check #[redacted]) to do [redacted], plans and communicate with [redacted] for their approval. The goal was to determine the cost [redacted] would charge. On a regular basis Iwould inquire of the status with ** and later S[redacted]. As part of my construction loan agreement there was an option to fund the amount when we know. In May 2015,** informed me that this was 'not part of scope of work' (email 5/5/2015). But it is part of his scope of work to send accurate information and plans and communicate. Page 2Interesting that this was not revealed to me almost 12 months prior and before construction started.Icontacted [redacted] Engineer and found out that ** was sending incorrect plans & survey showing a wall that was not there and would not be built.Isent a copy of permitted plans Dated 11/2014. With the correct plans and the correct survey within two weeks, a new [redacted] plan was submitted for approval to [redacted]. I twas blessed by [redacted]. We received a letter on June 22, 2015 with the proposal to do their [redacted] work. It took less than 2 month to do the work that could and should have been done in mid-2014.Though [redacted] is an important element,it is in no way had any impact on the ability to build a house on this property.A building permit (BP #757469) was issued and worked began November 2014. Estimated time of completion is four months, as stated before the Lender and myself.Other comments :Sumo makes a reference to '$SOK pay back'. We thank him for mentioning it, yet where is the manifestation?When it was time for Construction Contract to be signed, we asked how much we needed to borrow. ** & S[redacted] told us $350,000.00,some cash, and $100,000.00 credit =$458,000.00.As part of the window/door purchase, we have not received the lanai sliding door.We have found out that one or two of the subcontractors has not been paid,for additional work. Check #[redacted] was written to pay for that additional work.There was qualified buyer for the property who became disappointed by lack of S[redacted]'s progress and discouraged by questionable emails (2/24/15) from **.We were not bothered that some costs would be more than planned for and would gladly pay, but to stop and leave a house unfinished with no explanation and not giving an account of where funds went. We have a house that is unfinished,not rentable,not saleable and unsecured. We realized that this has been thief by deception.Ihave been informed that there' re several other Revdex.com complaints and DCCA-RICO investigation by [redacted] & [redacted].

Once again I put pen to paper in response to the C. S[redacted] 1/29/2016 letter complaint #[redacted] and [redacted]s complaint #10864477.   The issue is not that C. S[redacted] worked on our [redacted] property.The issue is C. S[redacted] unilaterally claimed money given for [redacted] property (3/13 date to be verified) that was for [redacted] Place house construction. And now an explanation 21 months after the fact ? 30 hours of work for 3,500.00 is fair, not 19,000.00+.What we have is a Loan Agreement and Note signed by C. S[redacted] & [redacted]s dated 7/11/2012 for 100,000.00 plus minimum interest 8,000.00.‘REPAYMENT. In order to repay Total Obligation Maker ([redacted]) shall enter into a separate agreement with Lenders known as [redacted] Resident Construction Agreement’. This document was authored by **.9/04/2014 we entered into Construction & Material Agreement for 47- 431 [redacted] Place. Building permit #757469.

S[redacted] for their accounting and again no response. We have asked for a friendly meeting [redacted] & CS) to move project forward, no response.The [redacted] situation is just another excuse based on a false premise. Details in our previous response.  2.To say that things were out of control and stopping work has no basis in fact. Other observations, the vacuous statement of working on a property we do not own ? We can provide pictures of CS working at our [redacted] property 3/13. We can provide, tax assessment and deed to refute this false claim. Again the pattern of deception continues. C. S[redacted] Construction Lic. # BC-22826 and I[redacted] ([redacted]s), operate at the same address [redacted] Kaneohe, Hi [redacted]. Separated only by an interior doorway from shop to office. ** designs, plans, builds palletized walls and CS assembles on & off sight. There is a symbiotic relationship. There legal status is their own business. This is just another masquerade to divert attention away from the main issue. Apparently both ** & CS want to avoid accountability by their silence and absent of facts.  We have paid for a product and not received value, this is a fact not a delusion.

We just saw the notice to us from the Revdex.com that idicated that C. S[redacted] had responded to our complaint.  We are providing a relay to C. S[redacted]'s response.  Please re-open the complaint and consider our reply.Chris S[redacted] continues to provide totaly false statements and incorrect information regarding this project. The most important fact is C. S[redacted] signed a Construction Agreement with us on October 27, 2014 and has failed to abide by the agreement requirements and subsequently abandoned the job due to no fault of the owner. We will respond to his false statements and incorrect information with documented information.In C. Surnrno's response to the complaint he stated that he facilitated a pour of an extra concrete slab for our back yard patio and that this was an added item and a [redacted]e [redacted] at a cost of $5000. He further stated that after the work was completed we only paid him half of the amount, $2500, because we felt that was the amount that he was owed.Response: [redacted]l to understand the reliance of this item to the complaint. This issued was closed bybothpaties over ayear ago. However, here are thefacts on this issue since he brought it up.. The backyard path slab was part of the Construction Agreement and is shown on the construction drawing on page AOOO.  When the backyard slab was poured it included a concrete sidewalk approximately 3' wideby 24' which was not included in the construction drawing & Extra concrete remaining from the patio slab was used for the sidewalk.C. S[redacted] did not state there would be an additional cost for the sidewalk nor did he issue a [redacted]e [redacted] and obtain an agreement on the cost prior to the work being intiated as required by the Construction Agreement, (Article 6,paragragh 9). AFTER the work was completed C.S[redacted] surprised us by submitting [redacted]e [redacted] dated 12/10/2014,for an amount of$4,534.42 (not the amount ef $5000 as he stated in his response). They did object to the fact that he did not identify that there would be an additional cost or obtain our agreement for the amount and issue a[redacted]e [redacted] prior to intiating the work as reqiured by the Construction Agreement. We resolved this issue with C. Sunmmo on 12/10 2014 as he requested us topay him in cash an amountef $3000 and then he wouldvoid the [redacted]e request. We agreed topay C. S[redacted] $3000 ( not $2500 as stated by C. S[redacted]) with the understanding that.farture work must be agreed to in a writtren [redacted]e [redacted] prior to commencing the work. The evidence that wepaid him is the attached the $3,000 check (check #[redacted]) written to cash which he endorsed and cashed. He voided the [redacted]e request on 12/10/2014 as evidenced by his signature on the attached [redacted]e [redacted].As can be seenfrom this example, C. S[redacted] statements are false and the information he provided on this issue is incorrect.C. S[redacted] further stated in his complaint response that we are trying to pass off to his insurance company for broken concrete on our driveway for an amount of $19,000 when in reality it is about $1,500 in repair work.Response: Again C. S[redacted] is providing false and incorrect information. Please see the attached e-mail to [redacted]; C. S[redacted]'s Insurance agent, and the estimate.from [redacted] and LanscapingThe total amount we claimed was for onf:y the amount to repair the concrete cracks, items #2, 3, and 4 efthe estimate as stated in our e-mail to [redacted]. The total amount for items #2, 3, and 4. is$2,300 not $19,000 as stated by C. S[redacted].. The total estimate provided by [redacted] and Landscaping included additional work not related to the concrete crack repairs and there was no intent to include this unrelated work in our claim to C. S[redacted]'s insurance. The amount we claimed far the damaged sidewalks and driveway is not $19,000 as C. S[redacted] stated in his complaint response.C. S[redacted] alleges the project timeline could not be achieved because we held back payments necessary to facilitate the work and to keep the job moving and he alleges that we [redacted]ed everthing by not following our schedule for payments.Response:  C. S[redacted] makes these allegation but does notprovide documentation to support his allegations.We are prepared toprovide documentation ef invoices and payment receipts and a copy ef the Construction Agreement . The receipts show payments were made prior to or within thepayment schedule required under the Construction Agreement.The invoices and receipts will also show that C. S[redacted] Construction submitted requestsfor payments outside the Construction Agreement andprior to the work being complete.In the third paragraph of C. S[redacted]'s complaint response, he continues to blame his failure to complete the project within Contract Agreement schedule of six months by false allegations which he provides no documentation or evidence to suppot his statements.Response: We will not provide a specific response to his allegations in this paragraph as this response is just unsupported statements which has little or no bearing on his failure to complete the project as required by the Construction Agreement. He is only trying to deflect blame far his failure to meet his contractual obligations.In the fourth paragraph of C. S[redacted]'s response, he alleges that we tried to screw him out of $16,000 for a cable rail system and indicates that it was our responsibility to purchase.  This statement is also false. Response:  The Contract Agreement, Construction Drawings, and Specifications far the project specifically require that the railing system be a composite or cable rail system. The cost and laborfar the railing system was never part ef the Owner's Allowance and was always the responsibilry ef C. S[redacted] Construction.Addendum A ef the Construction Agreement is the Allowance Schedule far items that the Owners areresponsible toprovide. The railing system (guardrails and stairway rails) ae not included in the Allowance Schedule. A wood railing system is not specified in any contract documents. The contract specifications  and the construction drawing (page AOOO) specifical[y require a composite or cable rail system to be installed. Again, C. S[redacted] is making allegations which he does not support and is contrary to the Construction Agreement   documentation.In the final paragraph of C. S[redacted]'s complaint response, he rambles on with a lot of statements which have no real bearing on the complaint in [redacted] to deflect this failure to meet his contractual obligations. No response is needed for this paragraph.Please feel free to call me if you need additional documention or have any questions.

Case no. : [redacted] This is in regards to the latest response in sending over the contract. Please have him refer to the previous letter dated: January 19th, 2016 that he seems to graze over and not acknowledgeAnything stated.From the beginning one of the first items we facilitated for them was to pour an extra concrete slab for their back yard patio in which was an added item and also a [redacted] of $5000.00. After the work was completed he then only paid half of that amount at $2500.00 because he felt like that’s what he owed and not the full amount that he was charged. Now he is trying to pass a bill off to my insurance company for broken concrete on his driveway for $19,000.00 when in reality it is about $1,500.00 in repair work. He knew beforehand that there would be some type of damages to the concrete during the building of his new home due to the location on the upper part of his lot. That right there should tell you how deceptive they are and have been like this from the beginning of their project. As for the timeline it could not be achieved because from the start they held back payments        necessary to facilitate the work to keep the job moving. From the day we signed the contract it was discussed how the payments were to be made and he changed everything not following our schedule and created his own payment schedule. A lot of it didn’t make sense and had items in areas that would not work out so he then agreed that we would be able to percent amounts out of these scheduled payments. But he stopped us from being able to collect and it happened more than once.The 13 months is not at all accurate due to delays on his side the main one being trying to get paid from him, it has always been a struggle for us to collect and the amounts that they were invoiced. There was a complete stop of 3 months of work for us due to the back fill that had been done incorrectly on his end. It would have cost them $10,000.00-$15,000.00 for micro piles. But, I stepped in to keep the project moving and was able to build a bond beam for them at no charge. Reflecting back on it, it was a big mistake on my part and also added 3 months on the projects timeline. My workers placed drainage pipes for him when he wasn’t able to complete it himself. This added additional time and labor on my end and which I absorbed. [redacted] totally micro-managed and created endless interruptions with my workers which affected them from performing their jobs scheduled daily from them to complete in a timely manner. My plumber also rerouted pipe for him at his request adding again additional time and labor all not part of their contract. I could go on with a list that continued to add up and you will see from his multiple emails and demands.Yes we did restart the work only in hope to complete the project that we started but only to find out he now was trying to screw me out of $16,000 for a cable rail system in which he was responsible for buying. At the contract signing we all agreed that no one had done price checking, therefore C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC would credit him the cost for the material to be built in wood as per plans. The contract does not state that I’m responsible for buying these items. He was also trying to get me to pay for more items that were not my responsibility but his as the home owner. At this point I understood that this project had to be stopped because I could no longer continue to lose money here daily and overall. [redacted] is deceptive and trying to get me to pay and complete the building of his house because he had overspent on all his allowance items which “he” was ultimately responsible for. When he talked me into building his project it was a budget job and that’s how it was priced out. But the savings he made out on me was a deceptive way in which it gave him extra money to buy very upscale finishes which was very unfair.I feel confident when we sit in front of anyone, a mediator, Contracting Licensing Board, or RICO I would be exonerated for and all wrong doing. Thank you.Respectfully,Christopher *. S[redacted]

[redacted] ([redacted]) & [redacted] are the ones that have been deceptive in their obligations to me as    their General Contractor to build a new home on the property: [redacted]

I am a retired Chief Warrant Officer 4 with 32 years of military service and three combat tours, and consider myself a good judge of character. when it came time to add an addition to our home we choose C Summo Construction.
Chris, the owner of C Summo Construction is very professional and a good hearted person. He is very conscientious and can be trusted. His work ethics are above reproach. He completed our project in a professional manner and on time. We are planning to build an Accessory Dwelling Unit in the near future and will be using C Summo Construction again.

Once again I put pen to paper in response to the C. S[redacted] 1/29/2016 letter complaint #[redacted] and [redacted]s complaint #10864477.   The issue is not that C. S[redacted] worked on our [redacted] property.The issue is C.

There legal status is their own business. This is just another masquerade to divert attention away from the main issue. Apparently both ** & CS want to avoid accountability by their silence and absent of facts.  We have paid for a product and not received value, this is a fact not a delusion.

Here is my response to the complaint by [redacted] of the property: [redacted].C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC did have an agreement for a $100,000.00 loan for a project with Mr. [redacted] and for reasons beyond our control the project went into...

litigation and we were not able to receive all of our money back. So we agreed to roll it over into another project in [redacted]/Kaneohe. It was to build the house with all of Mr. [redacted]s funds and a partial payment of $50,000.00 would be paid back with Labor on our end. The contract amount was $458,000.00 but again there were obstacles beyond our control. There was a main power line that ran directly underneath where the house was to be constructed. The complete time we were there, the plans for [redacted] and going forward with the work was on the Owner. It was his responsibility not C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC. At this time the [redacted] work was estimated at $60,000.00 in addition to the construction cost. This was a big issue that was never dealt with yet. So the quote for Mr. [redacted] of $458,000.00 was the amount he was suppose to pay out for all the work that included my $50,000.00 pay back. If you add his numbers $458,000.00-$5,840.00-$3,733.00-$1,472.00-$5,660.00-$11,660.00= $378,305.00 is still $70,000.00 short of finish plus the $60,000.00 for the [redacted] for [redacted]. At that time Mr. [redacted] informed us he was out of money, and for these reasons we removed ourselves from Mr. [redacted]s project. I believe his accounting is incorrect and it doesn’t account for the all the Labor I did for him at another personal property located on [redacted], [redacted]. That was labor that he was never invoiced for payment but should have been worked out in trade to offset any interest.Respectfully,Christopher *. S[redacted]

First I would like to address issues that are not C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC’s responsibilitiesas per [redacted]’s follow up letter. Please note the following:•[redacted] of [redacted] has no legal affiliation with C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC.•C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC has no obligation to the [redacted] that ran directly under the center of the home which powers a complete subdivision further up from the the [redacted] property(HUGE IMPORTANCE). As [redacted] explains under the [redacted] part of his letter which takes up 50% of his letter, again C. S[redacted] has nothing to do with the [redacted] line. It is purely the Owners responsibility. It’s not part of my contract and there was no exchange of money for the [redacted] relocation. •Regarding the [redacted] property Own [redacted] is explaining it like I was contracted out to do work for him there. I deny that he was the owner of the property facilitating the work. For me it was helping him out on his personal property, while we worked on the bigger project which was the house and new build at the [redacted] Place. The checks listed for the [redacted] property were paid directly to the Vendors from the Owner. His statement regarding the $3,000.00 cash he paid us up front is untrue. All payments received from [redacted] was always via check. The money he listed that would’ve have been paid to C. S[redacted] Construction, LLC was used for equipment rental, hauling and equipment repair. Like the tire repair in which it was damaged on his property working on his project. If I was to have charged him for the work that he’s stating in the letter which again there was no contract for, the job would have cost him $15,000.00.To s[redacted]rize both letters, the total contract price for the home was $458,000.00. We always informed [redacted] at l[redacted] 10 times that’s the amount he would need to complete his 3,000+ square foot home. I never ever told him to pull out only $350,000.00 dollars. As part of the build and part of my pay back to him was after the $458,000.00 was all paid out. The house was well over $500,000.00 to build that’s where my money I owed him was to be the money I paid back.As for him finding out about the 2 subcontractors that was not paid, again he was told 10 timesthat they needed to be paid. If there were some qualified buyers for the property, produce the paperwork for his claim don’t just state it. Really no explanation: well here is the explanation the money is in the house and you are short about $150,000.00 to complete it. As far as the Revdex.com complaints you are the only one.We feel like we’re explaining this again for [redacted] and we thank you for listening to our end of what we’ve actually gone through for this project. Thank you.Respectfully,Christopher A. S[redacted]
