Get matched with top outdoor kitchen pros in Godfrey, IL

"I signed a contract with Joe Raymond, the owner on 9/11/2020 to put in a walk way. I gave him $1150 - half down. He took my money and never showed up to do the work. Now he will not return my calls. He is a crook and a scam artist. Do not use this company."

"Mike and his team did an excellent job! We could have not chosen a better contractor for our basement. They worked with us on changes and ideas as things progressed. Mike and his team were very professional and courteous as well. They communicated with us every step of the process. We are very happy with their work - it is flawless! We highly recommend Scorpion!"

"I purchased a swimming pool from this company and paid half of the total price in a deposit of $4800 using my credit card. They strongly encourage you to use pay with a check and charge a 3 percent transaction fee for a credit card. After reading all of their negative reviews and BBB complaints, I felt that it was worth 3 percent to have the peace of mind that a credit card allows. At no time and no where on my receipt did it say I could not cancel and get a FULL refund. A week later they called me & told me that the pool I paid the deposit for was not available and they didn't know if it ever would be. They also wanted to have me switch to a different pool that was "significantly more expense at no extra cost to me" but couldn't provide me with any details of the pool so that I could check to see if it was legitimate. I requested a refund of my deposit because they could not provide what they had sold me. When I went in to pick up the receipt for the refund, I was informed that I would be charged a $144 transaction fee because I used my credit card. I refused and came home and called my credit card company and they advised that there is no transaction fee when a refund is issued. There are very limited options locally for pool companies, but PLEASE read the reviews on Yelp and elsewhere and the BBB complaints before you give these people any business, most read the same as mine."

"you failed to post my honest review last time - think trip advisor got in a lot of trouble for doing that - siding with the companies - here is your final attempt - i am going legal with this so if you don't post this completely true review....I'll include you in it....I have money to burn for the right thing - this company needs to be stopped........ Worst experience with the worst people EVER. Charged $50,000 dollars here is what I got and I am not exaggerating. Quoted one camera system, installed a camera system half that price with no knowledge or permission. Had electricity shorted out in Bathroom for 3 days, they never fixed the short, only took power from another wall to power outlet - FIRE HAZARD! I have a direct receiver in my theater room that isn't connected to anything. Steve had it installed correctly at one point but joe changed things and it isn't even an option to watch on the control 4 system - yet joe thinks this is correct installation. Holes, BIG holes left in bathroom 12x12 holes I had to pay to have patched and painted - no apology, this is due to incompetance, they ordered the incorrect tv mount but i have to pay to fix it. Steve broke a custom made shudder of $1800 just ripped it off right in front of us. Trash was left for weeks - I had a 110" screen box empty laying in my gameroom for weeks, I had my garage full of all the empty boxes for upwards of a month. Came and went at will - never I'm going to be late or hey I'm going to stay in your house till 10pm...Steve just did whatever whenever. Alarm system had 25 windows wired to one contact...so it would say window open but you would need to look at 25 of them to find it. numerous error messages. Unable to view camera recordings - Joe said he would mail a wireless remote as he had plenty just laying around - Joe will lie to your face to get a dollar. he told us 3 times it was in the mail - how can it be in the mail for 5 weeks. He actually said Steve shouldn't be in houses, he has no customer service skills. well he was in my house.......a month past the supposed competition date and i haven't had one week where things work. My electronic keypad is inoperable - I cannot open or close the door, My door chime is inoperable - I cannot hear when someone is at my door....but joe and stoves response is they went "Above and beyond"....I'm sorry - I want what I paid for - nothing more - and unfortunately for them nothing less - This is a small company of 2-3 men......They must be stopped - they were referred to me and I went with that - do your homework - go with a bigger company that knows control4 and selects product that works with it. I had one thermostat on control 4 and the other 2 not - He actually thought someone would want to control only one thermostat but not the others. They have now insulted my wife almost saying it is out fault they caused damage and things don't work....It's a joke of a company - lies, mis quotes, incompetence - they are way over their head.....I think literally everything has failed except the projector. You've been warned......people who have seen this work will leave reviews as well so you don't think its just one person - I think 40-50 people have seen this work so I'll have them tell you what they saw. If you want a FIRE HAZARD, bait and switch lies to your face about how he is handling this, Lip service....this is your company......if you want things to work with your 50k - go elsewhere."
