THIS MAN CAME RECOMMENDED TO DO SOME TREE REMOVAL FOR ME.  INITIALLY.  HE TOOK FOREVER GETTING IT DONE AND WAS ALWAYS AHEAD OF THE GAME FINANCIALLY WITHIN THE SCOPE OF WORK HE HAD DONE.  AT ONE POINT I HAD TO CALL OTHER SERVICES TO REMOVE THE STUMPS BECAUSE HE JUST WASNT SHOWING UP OR RESPONDING TO ME TO GET THE WOK FINISHED. FINALLY WHEN HE DID. I PAID HIM IN FULL AND FINAL CHECK OF $2000 OF A $12500 SCOPE OF WORK.

CHECK STATED FINAL PAYMENT AND HE AGREED WE WERE DONE.  HE TORE UP MY DRIVEWAY REMOVING THE EXISTING CROSS TIES IN FRONT OF THE HOME. TO REMOVE A STUMP.  AS A RESULT IO HAD A TORN APART DRIVE AREA.  AT THAT POINT I WAS RESIGNED TO HAVE HIM REDO THE ELEVATION OF THE DRIVEWAY AREA.  WE AGREE TO A FEE OF $13,000. AND I WOULD PAY HIM $6000 TO GET STARTED AND THE BAL OF $7000 WHEN HE WAS FINISHED.

 I ASKED HIM HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE TO DO THE JOB AND GET IT COMPLETED. HE TOLD ME HE WOULD BE DONE IN 5 DAYS.  ITS  NOW A MONTH INTO THE PROCESS.  HERE IS WHAT HE HAS DONE.  HE TORE UP MY ENTIRE FRONTAGE OF THE HOME. . RESULTING IN EXTREME MUD EVERYWHERE DUE TO THE RAINS WE HAVE BEEN GETTING.  PRIOR TO THE RAINS HE WAS FULLY AWARE OF THE RAIN THAT WAS COMING. .

THE FRIDAY HE WAS HERE HE HAD A CREW OF TWO GUYS THAT COULD HAVE PLACED PROPER BARRIER PROTECION DOWN AND HE DID NOTHING.  INSTEAD HE SHOWED UP DEMANDING ANOTHER $9,000 OUT OF NOWHERE FOR THE TREE REMOVAL WORK! AFTER WE HAD AGREED IT HAD BEEN PAID IN FULL MAKING UP ALL SORTS OF COMMENTS ABOUT ADDL TREES THAT WERE REMOVED AND WERE NOT.

HE WAS SLOW TO GET THE TREES DOWN HAVING ONE MAN DOING THE CLIMBING AND WANTED TO PUT ME AT FAULT FOR HAVING THE CRANE ON SITE LONGER THAN EXPECTED!   THEY ALSO GOODFED OFF WUITE ALOT DURING THE PROCESS WHILE THEY WERE ON SITE. TAKING UP TIME AND WASTING TIME.  IT PUT ME IN A VOLATILE EXPOSED POSITION HIM DOING THIS. HE SAID IF HE DIDNT GET MORE MONEY HE WASNT GOING TO FINISH THE DRIVE.

HE WAS PAID AN ADDL $5000 ON TOP OF THE $6000 TO OBTAIN MORE ROCK MATERIAL AS WELL AND DID NOT DELIVER IT.  KEEPING A HUGE OVERPAID AMT BASED ON WHERE WE R IN THE JOB. 

THE DAYS HE DID SHOW UP. HIS GUYS WOULD NOT APPEAR UNTIL AROUND NOON. WORK 30 MINUTES. TAKE A TWO HOUR LUNCH THEN WORK ANOTHER HOUR AND LEAVE WELL BEFORE A NORMAL WORK DAY OF 5 PM.  MANY DAYS THEY JUST WOULD NOT SHOW UP.  HE HAD ONE EXCUSE AFTER ANOTHER.  VERTIGO, FEVER OF 103. WHILE TEXTING ALL THE WHILE . YEAH RIGHT .  HE MADE ONE PROMISE AFTER ANOTHER. TO ME AND NEVER DID ONE SINGLE THING HE PROMISED.  TO REPALCE A HOSE BIB FOR ONE THAT WAS LEAKING. I HAD AGREED TO GIVE HIM $100 HE WANTED TO FIX IT. YET HE NEVER DID.

AS IT STANDS RIGHT NOW  TODAY THE EPA SHOWED UP AT MY FRONT DOOR  HE HAD APPARENTLY EVEN CONTACTED THEM  . WHY HE DID THIS WHEN HE WAS NEGLIGENT I DONT KNOW.  I CALLED HIM DOWN ON IT AND HE ADMITTED TO CONTACTING THEM.  FROM THIS GUY NOT PUTTING PROPER SILT BARRIERS UP TO CONTROLTHE RUN OFF WHEN HE HAD DAYS BEFORE THE RAINS HERE CAME TO DO SO AND DID NOTHING   THEN CONTACT EPA LIKE HE DID MAKES NO SENSE.

 I CANT GET HIM TO COME OVER HERE AND GET THIS RESOLVED EVEN THOUGH I SPENT A FULL DAY TEXTING HIM PLEADING WITH HIM TO GET OVER HERE AND ADDRESS THE MESS HE HAS LEFT. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER EXCAVATION PEOPLE OUT HERE AND THEY HAVE TOLD ME BASED ON THE MESS HE HAS LEFT IT WILL COST ME IN THE 20-30,000 TO FIX AND CLEAN UP THE MESS HE HAS CREATED.  I HAVE LOST THREE DAYS OF WORK ALREADY BECAUSE I CANT STEP OFF MY FRONT PORCH WITHOUT DANGER TO MY SAFETY AND GETTING COMPETELY COVERED IN MUD.

  I HAVE TWO DOGS THAT ARE ALSO HAVING A VERY DIFFICULT TIME WITH THE EXTREME RUN OFF OF WATER  THAT WHEN IT RAINS IS A RIVER OF MUDDY WATER DOWN BOTH SIDES OF MY HOME.  IT HAS CAUSED ALL THE PACKED DIRT AGAINST MY HOME TO BE COMPLETELY WASHED OUT EXPOSING THE FOUNDATION AND THE PIPES ALONGSIDE THE HOME  NOT TO MENTION WHAT THE RUN OFF IS DOING TO THE CREEK BED BELOW. 

I AM HELPLESS TO GET ANYTHING DONE  AND HE KNOWS THIS  ANOTHER EXCAV COMPANY CANT GET OUT HERE FOR THREE MONTHS TO CORRECT AND RESOLE ALL OF THIS  

HE TRIED TO EXTORT MONEY FROM ME FOR A JOB PAID IN FULL OVER A MONTH AGO.  TRIED TO CASUE ADDL PROBLEMS FOR ME BY GOING DOWN TO THE COUNTY AND HAVING EPA CHECK TO SEE IF I HAD A PERMIT . KNOWING HE DID NOT PULL ONE AND HE SH HAVE.  LUCKILY MY OTHER CONTRACTOR HAD PREVIOUSLY PULLED ONE FOR EXCAVATING THE GROUND  SO HE DID NOT WIN HIS ONE. 

HE IS DOING NOTHING TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS NEGLIGENCE HE HAS CREATED HERE.  I HAVE A HUGE MUD AREANA ALL AROUND MY HOME AND THE CREEK IS BEING AFFECTED AND THE ENVIRONMENT DUE TO HIS NEGLIGENCE.  

HE HAS BEEN SENT DETAILED PHOTOS OF THE SITUATION  HE KNOWS I HAVE LOST WORK BECAUSE OF IT AND HE IS FULLY AWARE THE EXTREME EMOTIONAL AND PHYSOCAL DURESS MYSLEF AND MY ANIMALS ARE BING PUT THRU DUE TO HIS CARELESSNESS AND LACK OF CARING AND NEGLIGENCE. HE DOES NOT CARE.

HE TEXTED ME EVEN AFTER 10 PM THIS EVENING  DISTURBING MY REST .  WHEN HE COULD HAVE RESOLVED THIS WITH ME DURING DECENT BSUINESS HOURS AS I SPENT ALL DAY BACK AND FORTH WITH HIM IN TEXTS!!!!

I HAVE ALSO REPORTED HIM ON THE BBB WEBSITE TO TRY AND GET HIM TO OWN UP TO THIS AND FULLFILL HIS OBLIGATIONS OVER HERE  ALL HE WANTS TO DO IS CREATE ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER FOR ME  ITS HARRASSMENT AND ATTEMPTE EXTORTION  THINKING I WOULD PULL OUT SO HE DIDNT HAVE TO FINISH THE JOB SO HE COMES OVER HERE DEMANDING MORE MONEY FROM ME FOR TREE WORK!!  

HE ADMITTED TO ME THIS PAST FRIDAY HE HAD JUST PAID AN EXCESS OF $21,000 TO UNCLE SAM AND HAD NO MONEY  THUS IT MAKES SENSE WHERE HE WOULD ATTEMPY ME TO HELP PAY HIS FED TAX BILL BY DEMANDING MORE MONEY FOR THE TREE WORK WHEN A THE TIME I GAVE HIM THE FINAL $2000 PAYMENT HE AGREED IT WAS PAID IN FULL !!  ALSO I WANT TO ADD HE COULD NOT ASK FOR MORE MONEY REGARDING THE CURRENT DRIVEWAY WORK BEING DONE AS HE KNEW HE COULD NOT GET THOSE FUNDS TILL THE JOB WAS COMPLETE.  HE TOLD ME THIS PAST SATURDAY THE GUYS WERE NOT COMING YET AGAIN.. AS THEY HAD PROMISED TO DO SO FRIDAY  THE DAY BEFORE.  HE TOLD ME HE THOUGHT ONE WAS IN JAIL AND THE OTHER HE COULD NOT REACH BY PHONE.

TRUTH OF IT HE HAS NO CREW TO FINISH THE WORK  HE DUG UP MY ENTIRE YARD  ITS ALL MUD  I HAVE TONS OF VIDEO AND PHOTOS AND TEXT DOCUMENTS TO SHOW HIS NEGLEC AND LACK OF INTEREST IN GETTING THE JOB COMPLETED.

I HAVE ASKED HIM TO REFUND ME $6000 OF THE $11000 AS I FEEL THIS IS MORE THAN REASONABLE AS HE HAS NOT DONE ANYWHERE NEAR THE SCOPE OF WORK TO SUBSTANTIATE THE $11000. HE IS TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE AND HAS ZERO CONSCIENCE ON WHAT HE HS DONE HERE TO ME

I AM ALONE UP HERE WHERE I LIVE  .  HAVE NO FAMILY AND HE HAS TAKEN GROSE ADVANTAGE OF A POOR OLD WOMAN AS I AM ALSO A SENIOR CITIZEN AS WELL

IT WILL BE MONTHS BEFORE I CAN GET MY HOME BACK TO WHERE IT IS LIVEABLE AND I CAN PARK MY CAR AT MY PLACE OF RESIDENCE.  MY ANIMALS ARE RESORTING TO USING MY HOME AS THEIR BATHROOM NOW BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO DISTRESSED TO MANEUVER AROUND ALL THE DEBRIS AND WATER HE HAS CAUSED FOR ALL OF US.
