Lone Husky Customs LLC

TL;DR - Hiring David was the single worst financial decision I have ever made. He is unlicensed, uninsured, and lies about his capabilities. He stole our money and didnt finish the job - he truly fits the definition of the term con man. Do not hire. He has another company by the name 'Lonestar Construction and Design LLC and has fled Colorado to avoid legal pursuit. David was a sub on some previous work at our home. We hired him primarily because we had a tight timeline before my wife gave birth, and he said he could be done prior. We gave him a sizable deposit, and he moved an enormous number of tools into our basement, like we were a storage unit. We later learned its because he was transient between places to live, had no truck, and needed a place to keep them all. Demo went quickly, but everything went downhill from there. About the work & damage: Its a lot, so I will just list off a lot of the major issues. *dropped a deck into our house and broke multiple windows+ damaged siding, which we had to pay to repair (he was uninsured). *Put in the wrong size window wells, did not add headers to the window well cuts, and botched all the electrical - spent over $10k correcting those later. *Poured the dirt from the window wells all over our landscaping and we lost significant amounts of river rock. *Caused a major leak and made us pay him extra for the repair. *Asked for cash advances because he burned through our initial funds. * Incorrectly plumbed the shower. * Clogged the main sewer line. * Did the worst texture and paint I have ever seen in my life (and I am a realtor). * Damaged all the lighting. * There is a LOT more, but I am limited on characters. Professionalism: Turns out he had no crew, he was going to try to solo the entire job in a very tight timeframe. Found out later that he had no licenses, no insurance, and was pulling no permits. He hired random people to try to speed up work - e.g. a car detailer, a part time firefighter, and a handyman with no tools of his own. We constantly overheard how-to videos being watched on YouTube for basic things. He took a vacation when the job was already significantly overdue. He lied and pretended to be working offsite for things on our job, but was working elsewhere. The workspace was complete chaos all the time I have never seen such a huge mess (tools and debris underfoot everywhere). About him / customer service: David fast became the unwelcome guest in our home. He never arrived at a consistent time and entered without knocking or notifying us. When he did, he spent a good chunk of time each morning going #2 in our powder room (even if he arrived as late as 10am). He brought his dog over without permission to hang out in our home and just assumed it was OK - we have two large dogs, were going through a stressful reno, and my wife was pregnant - no thank you! He rifled through our kitchen without asking (I found dirty silverware and cups buried in the basement debris). He once had a friend over to help bandage a cut, and she stayed for hours like it was a hangout until we told her she needed to leave. After being weeks overdue, with no end in sight, we told David to give us whatever materials he had purchased and to move along. We had paid for 100% materials upfront, but obviously did not get them. He embezzled our money to fund his day to day life instead. We told him we needed repayment for the missing materials and incomplete work, and he told us he had no money. Further attempts to reach him went unanswered and we later learned he fled the state to avoid legal pursuit from the customer he had lined up after us. David opened this new LLC (Lone Husky) and is obviously trying to work in Georgia now. If you have hired him for any work, keep a close eye on what he did - I would not trust it not to leak, break, burn, etc. down the road. If you are consideri...

Responded and got job done quickly.

The number one thing to know is the highest quality of work and design that you receive. It is first rate. The attention to detail is amazing and being able to have input into the project and immediate feedback. Very easy to work with the owner who values his work and having his name on it. Hire with confidence and you'll be amazed and pleased with project. We had a bathroom completely gutted and rebuilt along with 2 closets. It changed how we feel about the whole house. The owner was an absolute joy to work with. We loved having him in our home during the project's duration. We can't say enough about this wonderful company!

I had a great experience working with LHC. The estimate was accurate and fair, communication around scheduling was clear and easy, and the work was done well!

An amazing experience! The price was on point, and the job was completed quickly and well. I definitely would hire this pro again!

My remodel only took 3 weeks to get done and it looks exactly like I imagined it would! David made my kitchen look phenomenal!

David was extremely professional and did a wonderful job on my full master bath remodel. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

I was highly impressed with Lone huskys ability to achieve the design I was hoping for in this bathroom. They took their time making sure every detail was up to the highest standard. I would recommend lone husky to anyone wanting to remodel.
