Thomas Ferguson Builders

"The member states that we started a job in 2009 with him and completed only 25% of the job and left with his deposit of $4500.00. This statement isn’t true. The member approached our company about completing a roof repair on a home in which he was renting to Mr. Ferguson after a hard storm had come thru and there were massive leeks in the home. The member was given a price to complete to job and to repair the chimney. The member was told a deposit to order his 30-year architectural shingles from Lowe’s was needed and that was $2,201.45. After the shingles were ordered and delivered, work was ready to start. The member had stated he wanted to purchase the rest of the material, which included felt and cap nails. Mr. Ferguson told the member he would go to Lowe’s with him so that he could get the same contractors discount. Time went by and the member approached Mr. Ferguson about the progress of the roof, at this time the member was informed that until he purchased or gave the money to purchase the felt and cap nails, the job couldn’t be started. The member then informed our company that he would not put any more money into this house and he didn’t have any more money to give, he also stated that the insurance claim money that was given to us was all that he had received. After this our company contacted the insurance company and the adjuster for a copy of the report, which was given to us. The member had been given just over $6,000.00 to have the roof repaired. When the member was confronted about this, he did admit to getting that amount from the insurance company but no longer had the money. Later our company was informed he used the insurance money to take his family on a trip to Mexico Beach. After several attempts to get the cooperation of the member in the financial aspect of this matter, he repeatedly told our company he didn’t have the money to put into the home and would not be spending any more money. the member was asked if the work was to commence, how he would pay for the labor on the home, he stated we had already received all of the money he was going to give a total of $2,201.45. The member was told this was not acceptable, there was a large argument and matter was taken to court by our company. The member did not post these comments about our company until after he was reported for insurance fraud and our company never received another cent from the member. The member was already refusing to pay for felt and cap nails, and most importantly the labor on the house, then no Ferguson Builders did not complete the work; for a company to complete a job knowing a customer such as the member will not pay for the labor, would be insane. To complete a job knowing the customer is not going to pay any further monies and can’t afford it, would put our employees in a horrible position, and not to mention our company. We are in business just as any other company to make money, but we are not in the business of ripping customers of their hard earned money away from them. Ferguson Builders strives and works hard to ensure that our customers are treated with professionalism and get the results of an outstanding job well done."
