I called Patrick Carpenter from a listing on Craigs List Dallas. I needed some electrical work done. He is very good at what he does, which is : Scamming, Ripping you off, Lying, Cheating, Robbing. He came in my home, gave me an estimate, then asked for up-front money, which he said he needed to buy equipment and supplies. I normally would have never agreed to this, but I had extenuating circumstances. I gave him a check for $200,which he promptly cashed, and he NEVER came back.
I have phoned him multiple times, he answered a couple of times, always giving me some type of vague response: yeah, ok let's see what I can do. Most of the time all I got was his voice mail. Right now it is 26 hours since he was here, and no sign of him. It was pure, unadulerated ROBBERY. I have learned that he did the exact same thing to a mutual friend who lives in Duncanville. I have filed a report with the Dallas Police Dept. Forgery Division, and I have his license plate number.

I am not sure what these persons are talking about. I never had any dealings with these people. I think this whole website is defunct.
Not sure why they post false information but they do and it sux when you are a businessman trying to make a living in the world. This website should really check their facts before just posting any random comments.
Fell free to contact me or anyone else on my team regarding this or any other issues brought forth on this website.

I was also ripped off by Patrick Carpenter Aka Carpenter Contracting. But don't go by the name. I am pretty sure he is using alias. Go by the picture on his website. That is definitely the guy that ripped me off. Like the previous consumer, he just took my cash that was advanced and he never returned. For me, he did not even bothered picking up the phone. I called him every day for 4 days. Then when I called from another phone - he picked up. When I told him who I was he hung up.
Basically he took my money, did nothing, and then avoided me.

He did the exact same thing to me and my family just last week. I would NEVER suggest using this idiot for any work that you need done. He will only rob you and avoid your calls. He did an estimate at our home and then asked for half of the money up front. We wrote him a check, which he IMMEDIATELY cashed and he NEVER showed back up to actually do the work! He won't answer phone calls, texts, or emails. And the one time he did reply to a text, it was some lame excuse and he "promised" to show up the next day to do the work. Do you think he actually showed? NOPE! I'll be taking this SOB to court. And soon!
I found 2 addresses for him:
9901 Pierce Dr McKinney, TX 75070
905 Melissa Ln. Garland, TX 75040
I strongly encourage anyone that this bozo has ripped off to file against him. He doesn't deserve to keep doing this to innocent, hard working people.

The last rebutter is obviously are well versed in Ripoff Reports, because he made his own post here, so why would he not have seen the other reports on this contractor before hiring him just last week? Have any of you pressed charges yet? Do your state laws allow contractors X amount of time to provide a service prepaid for before they can be charged with fraud?

Original poster, Kellie, if you could please post his LP#, it would help a lot with others that are trying to prosecute him.
Thanks.

This guy also took my money and ran. He did some of the work....maybe 20% of the job and left my backyard a complete disaster. I hired him to install two retaining walls, install some crown molding, and install some supports on the deck. He ONLY tore up the yard, put up about 20% of the retaining wall and did a horribly sloppy job on the little bit of work he did do. He never did any of the trim work or supports for the deck.
The mortar work was just terrible. I have plenty of photos of the way he left my yard and the condition things were left in. He got paid basically for more than the original estimate as he kept asking for progress payments immediately after he started the job. He'll tell you that the estimate does not include supplies or materials when he starts asking for more money. He'll tell you the job will only take a week, then only work two days and come up with excuses why he hasn't shown up. When he doesn't show up to do the job, he'll have some lame excuses or that he has some kind of heart condition. I don't believe a word this guy says. He also told me he was previously a nurse and graduated from Brookhaven, but I couldn't find anyone with his name under the state licensing board with his name. If he ever was, it was under a different name.
His company is an LLC and I pulled the public records with the State Comptroller. His registered agent has an address of:
United States Corporation Agents, Inc.
Quarry Oaks-Bldg A 10900 S. Stonelake Blvd. Ste.A-320
Austin, TX 78759
The Named Organizer on the Certificate of Formation is Matt Pfleging
101 N. Brand Blvd., 11th Floor,
Glendale, CA 91203
If someone could post his license plate number or any other information, it would be helpful for those of us who are trying to prosecute. Please make sure if you have a complaint, that you also file with the BBB Better Business Bureau and you can also file with the Attorney General's office. We may never be able to track this guy down as I have a feeling he might be getting out of Dodge with all the people he has ripped off!

I am a local business owner here in Ohio and came across an add for air duct cleaning in my area by a new company called OHIO AIR CARE LLC and was curious about the LOW prices they advertised and doing research found the business filing was under the same name as MATT PFLEGING who was mentioned in this company registry.
This is a fairly new company and has a lot of the same equipment and industry technicians that his previous company had.
I am concerned for the consumers locally and wanted to point out to who was looking for him, he could possibly be in ohio now. I know this was about 6 months ago and could have already been resolved but thought it was worth writing about.
