FELKINS CONSTRUCTION

See above description.

This guy is a nightmare, do NOT go anywhere near him. He does not have a license, he will not finish the job and anythng he does will have to be fiixed by a real contractor. Not to metion that you will be ripped off for a large amount of money. He has many judgements against him, unfortunatley I didnt do my homework before we got ripped off to the tune of $40,000. The records of his past are at the local courthouse and are public record. Please do a check before you hire anyone to do anyy work, there are many contractors like him. He will not turn up he will not finish the job. He will tell you the baby is sick or that he doesnt have gas money blah blah.

This has been a horror story.

Don't use this guy.  This was the worst experience of our life and we've had some real wild experiences. He started the work in August, with the guarantee it would be done by Christmas.  By the end of August he had gotten a check for $5,000 and he quit showing up.  There was always an excuse - first other jobs he was finishing, then sick babies, angry wife, broken down truck.  He was rarely on the job and his employees rarely had direction, materials they needed or paychecks. From the funds we gave him to pay subcontractors, he short paid the subs, and we ended up repaying so they would complete the work.  Again, no Paul available to explain, just unhappy workers who wanted to get paid. By October, when Paul did come around, he never had money to buy materials or pay employees.  We became his paymaster, putting our foot down when he began asking us to pay his employees for time they had spent at other jobs and asking to borrow $20 for gas - claiming his wife kept all his money and won't let him have any. Major items (like shower and bathroom vanity) that he ask us to have delivered by a certain date for installation ended up sitting for weeks and were broken before they could be installed.  Near the end, Paul would show up at sunset, work a couple of minutes, and then ask for money, claiming he would be back "first thing in the morning."  We've ended up using others to finish the project and to repair the work Felkins did.  Now the end of April, we are still making repairs (this time to a leaking roof he installed and the damge the leaks created to the interior)  Don't let this guy near your house.
