Arizona Registrar of Contractors ROC Failure, Neglagence Phoenix Arizona

Glen Branham was hired by a contract to build my home. Glen failed in over 40 areas. He did not supervise, he stayed in his truck and smoked for the most part - I heard this afterwards from sub contractors.

The real problem is he is a member of the ROC - they force him to pay thousands of dollars a year and in return he is do his job per code. There is a list of many items I asked him to fix - he declined to fix. I have a contract with him and he is in breach.

The ROC is supposed to enforce. Now the ROC requested some 19 documents from me - after more than 2 years after my complaint - I already had supplied the ROC with many documents like lien releases that were given to the bank and the main contract and many other documents. Now they claim they could not read some of them but hey were hard copies sent by USPS. I know I can read them. There is over $20,000 in damages and the ROC has a fund to take care of this when the contractor does not do his/her job.

They (ROC) use salesmen trype tackiets and execuse after execuse to not do there job - they are a scam. They take money from contractors and don't enforce the law - 

To add insult to the $20,000+ debt, my old bank wanted to charge me over $120 to get old checks. I told the ROC the contract and the otehr doucments should be enough and if they wanted more I would have to have time to get them - after all it has been more than 2 years and this is the time it took them. I filed two complaiints and the first one was let go by the ROC - the the second was the same as the first with a few added vendors.

The many items on the ROC list can be sent ot anyone who wants to take action against the ROC - the one that sticks out the most is the Pot filler (water over the stove) right over the burner and is a health risk as it will get hot - so that burner cannot be used.
