ABCO RENOVATIONS

This was an absolute nightmare! When he painted (which the walls did look nice), he did not protect furniture and got paint all over a leather sofa and chair as well as other furniture. He also removed all the carpeting and did do a good job with that. He leveled the subfloor where needed. But, I should've known I was in deep trouble when he pulled out Elmer's floor glue for the hardwood flooring. (At that time, though, I didn't know anything about wood floors.) He laid out the flooring in several rooms then went to gluing it down. That's when I stopped him as there were huge gaps between the baseboard and the flooring as well as in between the planks. And I never saw him after that. That's not the worst part, though. He would seldom show up when he was expected, offering many excuses. After a couple of months living in dust and concrete floors, I advanced him money for some legal problem he was having (probably a suit from another dissatisfied customer). Then he showed up to finish the painting. Then his truck broke down, Another advancement for new transmission after which I never saw him again. I went to the address listed on Semoran but it was an apartment rented by someone who claimed not to know this guy. I found another address on University. It didn't exist. I spent a fortune on a paint job. He completely ruined about 800sq ft of hardwood. I had to purchase enough hardwood for the house again as I was unable to match what I had bought by the time I found someone willing to clean up his mess.
