We recently had the great displeasure of working with [redacted].
We hired [redacted] to repair a portion of the front steps to our home. The necessary demolition had already been done, so [redacted] was only tasked with building a portion of the wall on both sides of the structure, and re-pouring the demolished steps (five of them). We agreed that a third of the total fee would be paid up front, the next third would be paid immediately before pouring the cement (in order to rent the cement truck and pay for cement), and the final third would be paid upon completion.
Once the small portion of walls on each side were re-built by [redacted] we noticed that they were misshapen and different colors (one of the rebuilt walls was much darker than the other he rebuilt). The biggest concern was the fact that one wall was not straight (i.e. in line with the rest of the wall that remained), and part of it had a ledge (like the original) and part didn't. We asked [redacted] not to do any more work while we contemplated whether we wanted to move forward given the subpar work we had received at this point.
A few weeks went by, and we decided that we might as well have [redacted]i finish the work as we need to be able to access the front of our home. Obviously, we regret that decision. Nevertheless, we called [redacted] and arranged for him to come by our house. We met him at our home and discussed next steps, and he assured us that all of the issues (ledge, straightness, color) would be taken care of. However, he asked for more than the next third of the total fee (all but $500 of the remaining amount), but we reminded him that our original deal was to pay the second third of the total payment before pouring the steps. He agreed, and took the second one-third payment. As you might guess at this point, we never saw him again.
We did speak, however. After several attempts, we finally reached him. Now, he told us that he would not do the work without receiving the final third of the total payment in advance. This is after we had already paid the second installment, which had not been earned. He told my wife that he would not do any further work unless we paid the full amount in advance, and hung up the phone on my wife. The next day, my wife and I called him and we spoke to him on speaker phone. Again, he refused to do the work without receiving yet another payment in advance. I told him that was not our original deal, and reminded him that just days earlier we had paid him a payment that had not been earned .. in fact, I reminded him, he had said the payment was for a deposit for the cement / cement truck. He reiterated several times that he would not complete the job unless we paid the final installment in advance. At this point, I threatened him with a lawsuit but he was not impressed, as I suspect he has been threatened with lawsuits many times in the past. So, in our opinion, we have paid for something we have not received. And, we strongly recommend that you not work with this individual.
