Chris Morris with Montgomery Morris Painting and general services Total Home Remedies and Synot Contracting. Chris owes me a refund and continues to tell me it is in the mail. Said he is closing business but had attorney release refund. Still waiting. Orlando Florida

Chris responded to a web search for a handyman and came to look at the work I needed done.  I wanted a false ceiling in my kitchen removed.  He agreed to do the work for 2000.  He worked half days and was sick one of them so the project took a little longer but he completed it.  Not the best job, kind of sloppy in some areas.  I paid 50% upfront for supplies and I was given an invoice with job description, deposit and balance due upon completion.  While he was doing this he said he could do my kitchen remodel.  Installing new cabinets, granite counter tops and new sink.  He took measurements and consulted with Tom at one to one cabinets.  Chris came back with a quote.  Showed me samples and pictures, showed me pictures of other work he did.  He gave me an invoice with the price and requested 50% to get the cabinets started.  He emailed me a design of the cabinets.  I went to the Slab depot and picked out my granite. 

They taked to Chris while I was there and Chris confirmed he was working with Tom at one to one cabinets.  I have several emails back and forth with Chris that he would stop by or call and never did.  He always had something come up.  I aske again about getting it scheduled and he said his mom was sick and going into Hospice and needed a few weeks as that is all she had left.  I seriously hope that he did not lie about this too.  After 3 weeks I checked in and he  said she passed and he was playing catch up but he had a friend Monty that could help so he would get it scheduled.  He also told me serveral times that Tom from one to one cabinets would come out.  After another few weeks of failed commitments I texted him and told him if he could not get the job done in 30 days that I wanted a refund and I would find someone else.  He texted back that would work but did not clarify if he would get it done or not.

  On the 30 day I texted him and he told me he was working on my refund, he was closing his business and had an attourney that was working on his insurance and taxes.  I continued to reach out to him and he told me it was being taked care of and I should have had it but he would call his attorney again.  When I continued to reach out to him for a refund or the name of his attorney he said it was Tom Rice, a bankruptcy attorney.  I have contacted an attorney to send a letter to him regarding the refund of 2041.50 he advised me that his attorney was handling it and I should not get anyone involved as his attorney was working on it.  He also told me that someone gave him a check for 6K and it bounced so he was trying to get that back.

Chris Morris should be in jail.  There are other reports of his scams.  I will still have the attorney I contacted send a letter and go from there but if there is already and attorney out there handling his scam, I would be open to be part of that.
