A wine gets better over time but this guy and his stories just take a walk on the wild side and leave a lot of BS on their way. The more Brock Bunge writes, the more he lies. Where to start gets difficult to decide because there
is so much more each time.
I told Brock the house was built in 1969 so there were no surprises in that. The part about being told 1977 is another invention of his. I don’t think that he is the sort who can sue people cause than a judge sees what he did and will
definitely find against him. The part about Law Suit sounds a lot like the 6 times he promised to come over and repair his shoddy workmanship but didn’t show up. Can we say BS on the Law Suit part :)
When I first met Brock Bunge, he introduced himself as a General Contractor who does many different jobs. We were at Lowes and when someone did something they weren’t supposed to do, Brock chastised her and told her he was a General Contractor. This guy speaks from two different sides of his mouth. He tells one story to one person and a totally different one to another one. There is something pathological about him. His website says he is licensed in California.
Handymen are not licensed, contractors are.
As for the story at Lumber Liquidators, there is some truth in this. Yes they did not have the flooring material available and Brock also wanted to get started on this job so he told me he has family in the area and could visit them and pick up the flooring. He asked me to pay for the gas and I said yes. I paid him with Check# 1079. He said he did this for free but he was paid for this. No free job but in all fairness he was entitled to be paid for the gas and I agreed to whatever he asked. Why lie about it by claiming he did it for free? Than the issue of the stairs treads, I never said I didn’t want to pay
for $41 each. They never quoted him $41 either. Brock said he could get the same kind of stairs in Lancaster for less. I never had the opportunity to refuse to buy them. When having to repair the shoddy work Brock did on the stairs, I went back to Lumber Liquidators and they couldn’t quote these because this was a special order so Brock never got a quote on these to start with. He just wanted to scam me and use cracked lumber for stairs. These stairs now creak and 6 out of 12 of them are cracked. If someone had quoted me $41 ea for stairs, I would gladly have paid for it. After more than a week, I finally got a quote from Lumber Liquidators. BROCK NEVER SUGGESTED HE WOULD INSTALL DOUGLAS FIR STAIRS to me.
He just told me to trust him and he will get the same kind of stairs in Lancaster. This is another lie on his part. You don’t build stairs out of Douglas Fir because it’s a soft wood. It’s not suitable for this. Only a scam artist does something like this. I never had a choice in the matter. It would have been good if he had given me the information. I had no idea what he was doing and he NEVER told me this. So much for trusting this guy.
Now on to more lies. He mentions that after his nephew left, I made homosexual advances on him and again, THAT IS A BLATANT LIE. He is a child in many ways. It kind of reminds me of the stories I had read of teenagers who called others gay just to humiliate them and years later would come out of the closet and declare themselves gay. I suspect there is a latent homosexuality in Brock Bunge that is rising and maybe soon will cause him to come out of the closet. In another complaint on this site by one Victor Krampitz Victor mentions that he was a Quality Inspector, Brock Bunge responds that he was a marine recon. When he worked for me, he told me that he never served a day with the armed forces. His comeback to Victor Krampitz is a lie and in a very childish fashion. Brock was well treated at my place and even got breakfast every morning when my parents were here.
Brock mentions some free work like the bar. This job he did do for free. That does not entitle him to than build dangerous stairs that will get me or someone dear to me killed or badly hurt as they come crashing down. All he had to do was ask me to buy new stairs and I would have done this. HE NEVER DID THIS. Brock had quoted me $300 to transport and than install new shelves. Afterwards, he starts whining that he’s not being paid enough and wants an additional $350. No other contractor has ever pulled this kind of crap on me. I had agreed to overpay Brock only because of the bar and 30 minutes of unloading my truck with my furniture. As a result, THERE WAS NO FREEBIE. All he did was try to over-bill me on another job. While we’re at it, he didn’t quite finish the bar which is his way of doing things. He never actually finished any project he started.
He was paid to remove the old paneling in the bar. Repairing or replacing the stairs will cost me considerably. Again, around the 3rd week after the stairs were finished, I pointed out the problem and he said he would fix it. My Mother asked him why the first stair was creaking and he said he would fix it. It never happened Another lie about the stairs that needs to be cleared up. Brock NEVER incurred $375 in costs. All material costs were incurred by me. He did pay for
taking the garbage to the county dump but also left a bunch over here.
