Home Improvement

Review: [redacted] was hired to repair 2 bathrooms and repair a sunroom. He gave me an estimate of $2775.84 for all the products and services. He raised the amount of the estimate that we had agreed upon, he asked for money in advance and he was given the money and we charged the products he needed for the project in a rental house in Colusa Ca. He picked up the products and we never received most of them, however I paid for them on the phone. He never got me the receipts as promised. He got cash several times and never gave us receipts as promised. He never completed the job and what he did do, we had to have a competent contractor tear his work off the wall and rebuy all the products. We even had to go to his house and retrieve the house keys. We believed this man was fair but what he did was simply outrageous. He is not an amateur , this is elder abuse! He eventexted me thinking I was his drug dealer and made an order to my phone! This was so discouraging. He had an ad on [redacted] but when I went to report it, he had already taken the ad down! So I ended up giving him over $3000 of cash and checks and got absolutely nothing out of it! Please beware, he seems honest drives a decent truck and appears honest as the day is long. DO NOT BE DECEIVED. [redacted] I have copies of his estimate if you need them!Desired Settlement: Want other people to beware, I couldn't possibly expect to get anything back from him, but at least people should be aware! THIS ISN'T THIS GUYS FIRST RODEO. The last money he got was from my husband he asked for $300, he needed it within an hour. MY HUSBAND TOOK IT TO HIM, $100 cash and I gave him a $200 check. I knew this was a bad move but my husband said I should trust him!I am on a limited income so this was really hard financially!
