I had asked Day to come and inspect my house because I believed the supports to my house were in need of repair and causing my back storm door not to close properly, causing a slant in my tub that didn't allow water to drain completely and causing my interior floors between my utility room and kitchen to seem to slant away from each other. Additionally, I asked Day to inspect my hot water lines to the washer and bathroom sink because there is little to no flow. Day took out a level and a measuring tape and proceeded to look over the various tasks. He stated that he didn't think there was anything wrong with the supports (although he never went into the crawlspace to look). The back door wasn't closing properly because he said it was too big for the opening - I needed a door two inches smaller. The door in question was only 2 years old. I relied on his opinion and paid for him to buy a new door and install. In order to do so, he had to add 1 inch lumber on both sides to make the doorway smaller. He also "kluged" in the latch part to make it fit; now, if you are coming in from the outside, you can't grasp the doorknob completely directly because the latch part juts out in front of it. He said the tub just needed to be repositioned and then recaulked to level it. After he was done, there doesn't appear to be any difference in the level (water still doesn't drain completely) and I just recently discovered that he never removed the old caulk, merely re-caulked over top of the old. I doubt seriously that he did anything to the tub but put new caulk over old. The slant between the utility room and kitchen were 'fixed' by installing a wooden bar across the seam. The original estimate said that included in the $775 to be paid was 'repair hot water lines to washer and vanity/sink.' I paid the entire amount, but he told me that the lines were clogged and in order to fix the problem, he proposed running flexible pipelines through the wall behind the bathroom, across the floor to the hot water heater and similar from the washer to the hot water heater. At this point in time, I was flabbergasted that he suggest such a crap repair that I just wanted him gone. So absolutely nothing was done to the hot water lines to repair them. This man should *never* be allowed to work on anyone's house. Now I have to pay to have someone correct all of his "repairs."
Description of Work: remove back storm door and replace; re-square bathroom tub (to level) and re-caulk; mortar cracks in foundation on house corners, repair hot water lines on washer and bathroom sink - no pressure...
