Danny Cox with this company was contracted in July to level my grandmother's home in Arkansas. We live in Texas. This company was eager to do the work, showed up when expected at the start, and was eager to be paid $9500 dollars for their services. Mr. Cox stated that all stacked rocks supporting the house since it was built in 1938 would be removed and replaced with blocks as a new foundation to support the house and that the house would be leveled. He stated the price of $9500 was so high because it would take eight days to complete the work removing the old stacked rocks and replacing them with beams and blocks. He stated that he had leveled the Govorners Mansion in Little Rock and that he is the one called to fix "what the back woods leveling guys mess up." He said we would have a one year warranty and that he would come back as many times as needed to relevel the house as the new foundation settles over the next year. He asked for 1/2 of the $9500 up front and the balance at the end of the job. After working 4 days for appx 4 hours each day he stated that he needed the balance of the payment and stated that he was not finished, that he would need to come back. He asked that we return to Arkansas in October 2015 so that he could come back and finish the job and level the house after it had time to settled. My son trusted him and paid him the balance. In October we begain calling to schedule them to return and our trip back to Arkansas. The phone calls went unanswered and messages left were not returned. My son spent eleven days in Arkansas calling each day and sending text messages to Danny Cox's phone with no response. I called and left a message stating I would be leaving this review and my call was returned by Danny's mother stating that they would fix whatever is wrong, however they have not scheduled the work with us. We have called them now twice a week for the last month attempting to schedule another trip to Arkansas to have the work completed each time leaving a message on their machine which they are apparently using to answer when they see my area code on the caller ID. While back in Arkansas on his next trip my son went under the house to look at their work. Upon inspecting under the house we find that the house was left resting on stacks of rocks that had not been replaced with blocks as we were told they would be. The only rocks removed were those around the outside. The house is no where close to level and is still resting on the stacks of rocks from 1938 that we paid this company to replace. This was the primary reason I contracted with this company, to replace the stacked rocks that my grandfather used when building this house with blocks and to level the house. We are very disappointed in this company as they "talked the good talk" (claiming to have leveled the Governor's Mansion in Little Rock and would come back how ever many times needed over the next year to re-level) but unfortunately when they took their payment and walked, their talk was meaningless and upon inspection they did not do the job they were hired and paid to do as far as replacing the uneven and unleveled rocks stacked to support the house with solid blocks. and will not honor their word of coming back to complete the job. I feel like this company took the $9500 payment and only completed half of the work and will not come back to complete the job.
Description of Work: Remove Rock foundation supports, replace with blocks and level house.
