Professional con man Gary Ernest Melchiorre of Star Brand Construction talked a charming line and story as he discussed how he could help me and my family with remodeling and improving our home after being hit by a fire.  Unfortunately I fell for his slick talk as he conned me out of over $51,000 and walked off the job without completing the job and correcting the errors he and his crew made.

I have a handicapped brother with special needs and Star Brand Construction Gary Melchiorre left my home torn apart and my brother without a restroom to meet his needs.  Melchiorre would never put anything in writing.  I requested him to place something in writing and he never has.  His greed to get more and more insurance money became very apparent.  Star Brand Construction installed a shower that does not drain properly and the grout and tile are uneven and messy.  The poor quality work is now costing me to have it redone.  Gary Melchiorre was well aware of this and other work that he and his crew performed that was unacceptable. 

The drywall texture that Star Brand construction placed on my walls and ceilings is unacceptable and I now have to pay for the job to be done correctly.  The tile flooring did not have adequate thin-set and is uneven.  The painting has streaks and runs.  They moved items in my house and broke many things.  Star Brand Construction caused more problems than I can begin to mention.

Gary Melchiorre had high turn over with his employees and arguments in front of me.  Gary even tried to get me to pay him in cash.  He does not like to have a paper trail or put his empty promises in writing.  He initially came off as a caring and concerned person.  Unfortunately I learned that he is a true con man.  I would not trust Star Brand Construction, Gary Melchiorre, or anyone associated with this company.  Gary Melchiorre has felony charges from October 2011 in Florida for his so called construction business and business practices.

Do yourself a favor and find a reputable company to work with.  Gary Ernest Melchiorre has set up a track record as a ripoff con man.

Company NAME GAME

AUTHOR: Amy - ()

POSTED: Monday, December 16, 2013

Notice how CON MAN Gary Melchiorre has chosen his new company name to be Gem Star Construction Services.  

 

The is a PROFESSION COMPANY VERY CLOSE TO his new company name.  DO NOT CONFUSE Gary Melchiorre this professional company.  

 

CON MAN GARY MELCHIORRE has picked a company name that can easily get lost in the shuffle and make it appear that he has a reputable company.  He is a slick CON MAN.

MUG SHOT FROM FLORIDA OF GARY ERNEST MELCHIORRE

http://mugshots.com/US-Counties/Florida/Walton-County-FL/Gary-Ernest-Melchiorre.4249584.html 

Gem Star Construction Services "Award Winning Designs"

HEY, GARY ERNEST MELCHIORRE WHY WONT YOU PUT IT IN WRITING .... ARE YOU AFRAID OF LEGAL CONSEQUENCES???

Get it in WRITING UNLESS, you have money to throw away and enjoy being ripped off.  Gary Ernest Melchiorre is a well groomed CON MAN.

The workers he had at my house had previous jail and drug issues.  He DID NOT have professional employees working on the job at my house.   

SO IT APPEARS THAT CON MAN "GARY MELCHIORRE;  GARY E. MELCHIORRE;  GARY ERNEST MELCHIORRE" IS BACK AT IT UNDER a new company name  "GEM STAR CONSTRUCTIN SERVICES".  

GARRY ERNEST MELCHIORRI RIPPED ME OFF WHEN HE WAS WORKING UNDER THE COMPANY NAME OF "STAR BRAND CONSTRUCTION"

His old company name website Star Brand Construction is no longer available.  Wonder why? 

Notice how his new company website for Gem Star Construction Services is so vague and does not list his name, address, or personal information.  

The pictures on the website look good from a distance.  I will upload pictures soon.  Feel free to contact me.  He has already done his damage to me.

Apparently he has struck again an ripped of another person that was kind enough to try and warn others as I did. 

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND RESEARCH THIS COMPANY.  IF GARY MELCHIORRE IS ASSOCIATED WITH IT, I WOULD STRONGLY ADVISE YOU TO KEEP YOUR MONEY IN YOU POCKETS AND GET A REPUTABLE AND HONEST PERSON.

 GARY ERNEST MELCHIORRE IS AN EXPERT CON MAN.
