  5 Star Remodeling - Not So Perfect

  My wife hired him to replace windows and all the electric baseboard heaters and thermostats in our home. When the windows came in two had not been measured correctly. He said he would not charge to put in the windows once we had purchased two more. So I have to buy 4 windows and only need 2?
  Two months ago we heard a horrible noise like a bomb went off. Could not discover the cause. After a couple of days we realized we did not have heat in the kitchen. We found a tripped breaker. Reset it and turned on the thermostat. Immediately fire and smoke spit out. The thermostat and the wall were burnt. An electrician came out and found that when the thermostat was installed there was a bare wire not capped off. The wire caused a short which in turn could have started a fire. Relatively simple handy man tasks which were horribly wrong. One can only wonder what would happen on a bigger job.

  6 weeks to get answer on lighting on our $70000+ project. That answer changed within the course of conversation and changed again the next day. Took 6 more weeks for invoices, that had no dates. Another week to get more invoices with dates that don't match up with the undated version. Never finished the project but sued us anyway! That case was dismissed! Not trustworthy! Asked multiple times to knock before entering the house since we had dogs, but never bothered to respect our home. Ripped up old hardwood floor and left me with just the subfloor for three weeks! Did good work in the beginning but became sloppy toward the end and then never finished! 8-12 week project was 24 when he disappeared and then sued US!!!
