Sisters Construction - Patricia McElroy owner -contractor ripoff, lied to inspectors, did not keep deadlines, sub-contratced workers stealing from homeowners, not accountable Sacramento, Elk Grove Area And Oakland, BayArea California

From the start the work began after the contract date.We found "human" waste(urine and poop) in our garage in a bucket covered with a plastic bag and left over the weekend. No acountability, and yes we do have another bathroom in the house. There were no floor plans or drawings done, and, this would be explained to the city inspectors as putting the bathroom items back where they were. This is not a true statment. Nothing went back where it originally came from. After we failed a big inspection and a floor plan was requested by the city this was finally done. The next inspection no one from her company was here for it.

The other bathroom started having clogged issues(my husband corrected) because of items dropped down the drain (insulation, nails.) The one they where working on.This weent on for a good week. At some points we had no toilet access at all, yes, eveen over night. She offered to pay my husband-onder payed him a total of $100.00.

The nextr set of workers came in and needed to "borrow" items from day 1. Stating that theses items were not /forgotten from there trucks. They where suppose to show up one Saturday, and he did late- and work at our house and accross the street(side job)and we caught him using items for here at this side job. But he was taking our tools(my husbands) to do this job with no permission. My husband did an inventory of hiis tools to find $600.00 of his own tools gone.He wrote up a list and I gave it to her. Her response was I will replace them.Then it became we will all meet and discuss this. Then it became its not her responsibility.Remember that these are sub-contracted people thru her.

Needless to say there has been no conversation and or replacement of his tools. Nor have these 2 sub-contractors returned to our home. My husband has had to turn down 2 jobs/plumbing because he does not have his tools.

The latest news is that they plumbed the toilet to the hot water and it took them 1 week to come and correct this.The bathroom is not completed(lights, eletrical outlets, shower leaks.) The finish date has come and gone.There have been stretches of time with no work being done for various reasons(IRS to ??).

What can we do??? Help
