He is terrible. When we discussed our project, he said he has his own crew and would use his crew. When we started the project, he brought in a sub. He did a shoddy job. So much so that I fired him after the rough and did the finishes with another contractor. The electrical was so bad that I had to pay another electrician. Framing is poor.
