The work went absolutely terribly, and I ended up having to sue him. He installed the driveway, and a few months later it began to sink. He came back finally months later and then made a new contract with me for additional money to fix the driveway, seal it, and finish an area that he never finished in the first place. Then months later he refused to honor that contract. Through nearly a year in Maryland Circuit Court proceedings, he fought tooth and nail to get out of doing the work he promised to do. After refusing to compromise and split the cost of doing the driveway work he contracted for, the court ultimately awarded me the cost of hiring someone else to do the work after a full trial. Now, after being paid thousands of dollars for excavation work and my driveway, Whitworth says that he can't even satisfy the judgment so that I can fix my driveway. He apparently had money to hire a lawyer for almost a year to fight against me but not to make good on his contract with me. I built my home and dealt with dozens upon dozens of contractors. Whitworth is truly one of the worst I have ever dealt with. His work was terrible and shoddy; he didn't keep his word; he forced me to drag him to court; he refused any reasonable offer of compromise; and now he's making me chase after him to get the money the court awarded me so that I can fix my driveway. I would never hire him again, even if he offered to work for free.
Description of Work: When I built my home, Alan Whitworth and his company Whitworth Excavating were hired to excavate for my foundation and install a driveway. He was paid thousands of dollars for the excavation and to install a driveway.
