"customers father oversaw the job and it was completed with according to my bid.i was paid in full .accordingly .the customer never complained until 2 months later but yet he never called or questioned anything until he realized he was dealing with solid rock which I had no control over. he knew this going in and was told many times and was sent pics of the solid rock. I own my own equipment and busted several teeth on my excavator trying to dig in the rock. I did more than I was paid for yet he never complained or failed paying . I only found out about his issues a couple months later after he called the bbb and filed a complaint.the bbb sided with me and I never heard anymore from him. I'm sorry about his issues but he admittingly tried to build a house on side of a mountain called stone mountain"
"our schedules never meshed as far as getting the job completed so I guess customesr can give a bad review for something we never started"
Work was supposed to start mid-October, but was delayed. Very poor communication on this matter. Finally showed up with heavy equipment (unfortunately, construction backhoe/loader not sized for residential yard; over time, did a lot of damage to landscaping and an important shade tree. They had stated ?not responsible for damage to landscaping,? but over the course of the job they damaged areas of the yard they had no business to go.) They constantly walked through ivy beds in the side yard and even backed a truck into the ivy; it takes a full year for recovery from that kind of damage. There was no consistent work effort, and often the owner, JR Randleas, was not supervising, so mistakes occurred. My husband spent many hours out supervising the workers to prevent errors and missteps after our initial experience. For example, the workers decided to drain the pool onto our neighbors? property (!) but did not consult us about the slope?so the water actually ran into our own yard where the heavy equipment needed to run. If they had just ASKED us, totally preventable. With JR often not present, when my husband was not able to supervise, mistakes were made, so when JR did show up, we were treated to scenes with a lot of screaming and then sullen workers. The workers also used the empty pool as a trash receptacle, threw materials and garbage into my raised vegetable beds, walked through flowerbeds, tossed trash into our recycling bin, etc. The yard looked like a garbage heap much of the time. I personally cleaned up repeatedly, and I dug a ditch to drain away rainwater. The workers also just helped themselves?without asking?to items in the yard (bricks, stones, flowerpot) and even moved our property stored under a covered canopy so they could back a trailer in there. Did not ask permission. The trailer quickly became another junk-disposal site. We selected a color for the concrete that JR personally did not like, so he took it upon himself to mix a different color?almost jet black, a very poor choice for a pool deck that gets full sun most of the day. (He kept saying what strange taste we had.) Unbelievable! When JR was bringing in the liquid concrete, the patio doors, windows, and sides of the house were spattered with black concrete?we?ve never been able to get it all off. The best JR could do to correct the dark color was paint on a tinted sealer. It is not attractive. The concrete developed cracks almost at once, and in fact the patio has three serious breaks in it. A patio this large probably should have had expansion joints built into it. The workers were to return in the Fall to install the pool cover anchors; it took all week for them to show up?no phone calls to reschedule, no answer to our calls?and then they showed up without the proper equipment. We lost the entire week waiting for them to get here and get the work done. Repairs to the landscaping cost more than $3000, and we may still lose this tree thanks to the damage to roots and branches. JR also tried to get us to pay him early for work that was still pending; (we refused.) We?ve had a lot of experiences with contractors, but this one ranks as the worst.
"the job was completed in a timely manner and the customer paid in full when we were done. I never have heard from this customer since completed and definitely didn't even know this review was given .I'm sorry they didn't reach out to me to correct anything and if I had known anything was wrong I would have been more than happy to correct any problems. usually when customers pay and I load up and leave ,how am I supposed to know if I never hear from you again"
