I hired JD Mechanical (Jose Dominguez) to install a central air system in my home.  He completed most of the work and on the final day of work, I paid him the final payment in full (he claimed he only had an hour left to finish).  To my surprise, he did not finish and left the job -- he promised to come back in a couple days and finish, but, of course, he never returned.  After repeated calls, emails, and texts I have not heard from him!

To make matters worse, in the bad storm we just had, I learned that he had drilled holes through the roof to route piping, and never sealed them.  So we had significant water in the house, which flooded part of the house!

Now I must find a new contractor to finish the work Jose Dominguez did not finish and also have repairs done due to the flood damage.

I will never contact JD Mechanical or Jose Dominguez again!

Jose Dominguez

POSTED: Friday, March 28, 2014

I feel certain that Jose Dominguez's  REBUTTAL above is totally false. Jose also performed work for me and it is horrbendous. All ductwork on a three zone system will have to be disgarded. A return duct is undersized, flex ducts have improper R value and size, numerous masonry penetrations will have to be repaired. All this from two reputable companies. Additionally, Mr. Dominguez offers no direct proof nor is any verifiable in the above text transcript. Mr. Dominguez claimed to me that he broke his rib on the job, again without documentation or proof  of any kind. See my report elsewhere on this blog. Mr. Dominguez, who claims to have spent five years building ductwork in a factory made every error possible on my job. That he offers negative observations above only serves to underscore the cunning devices at his disposal. If you wish to save money, buy a fan, do not hire Mr. Dominguez.

Here are text transcripts to document the dialogue starting on the final day of work:

Nov 12th

JD:  Will tell you when I check out

JD:  About 130

MD:  Ok

JD:  Mike Im 98% done but I ran out of acetylene gas for my torch to finish the copper lines I cant come back tomorrow or Thursday but yes on friday

MD:  Oh man.  I hate for you to make a special trip back.  Do you have another reason to come up north in the next week or so.  Am happy to wrap it around that.

JD:  I think friday to the Bronx which isnt so far

JD:  Will let you know Thursday

MD:  Ok.  Sounds good.  Thank you!

JD:  Thank you

 

Nov 15th

MD:  Hi Jose - Did you make it out today ?

JD:  No sorry

MD:  When do you think you'll be able to come?

 

Nov 18th

MD:  Just left a message.  Please let me know if you're able to come this week to finish up.  Thanks.

MD:  Jose - please let me know if you are able to come back.  Thanks.

 

Nov 19th

MD:  Jose - I am assuming you do not intend to return to finish the work?  I have been trying to reach you with no response.  Please let me know your plan.

 

Nov 21st

MD:  Jose - I am very disappointed that you have not returned to finish the job and are not responding.  I am sorry I paid you in full and will have to be more careful next time.  It is really a shame, as I think I was more than fair to you.

AUTHOR: Jose Dominguez - ()

POSTED: Monday, December 09, 2013

Im the owner of J.D Mechanical im taking the time to clear my name of absolute lies and slander. I took the job in early october to install central air conditioning in a house in connecticut we agreed on cash as form of payment, the job was going well until the third day of work and when i was about 95% complete, the owner came to the house and gave me last payment when I told him lll 

be done In a couple of hours he said ok then leaves, I count the cash and its not what we agreed I called him numerous times and when he failed to return my call I assumed he was trying to pull a fast one on me so I left. I did this job for 40% of what other companies charge, as far as me drilling through the roof is an

 

 absolute lie, ive been doing this for quite awhile and I would never drill through anybodys roof. Michael derby was a customer from HELL for his lies and greed
