Casey Construction LLC

The project was behind schedule from the start. Our goal was to start in September and finish by Christmas time to allow for a family gathering at my parent's home. They installed a fire place and two patio doors in the great room. Casey Construction would never tell us when they would be working and if they needed any information about product selection until it was too late. The project was no where near completion by Christmas and we had to change the venue for our Christmas gathering. Then they took two weeks of vacation over Christmas where they did not do any work. They submitted their final bill stating the job was complete on January 12, 2009. I inspected the job and had a minor change to request prior to finalizing final payment. Casey Construction demanded that we pay an additional $3000 to make the minor change (two other contractors estimated the change at <$500). We refused to pay more and requested that they make the change. They then showed up at my parent's home on January 29th and removed the patio doors and nailed up chip board over the doorway openings. We were told that we would get the doors back when we paid the final payment for the remodel project. We contacted the police immediately but they told the police that they removed the doors to add a lacquer coating. Since this time we have been battling in court over how much is due them. In addition, the fireplace has never worked. We were notified by the building inspector that Casey Construction did NOT pull the permit for fireplace installation and did not hire a subcontractor who was licensed and bonded to do this type of job. Now it will cost an additional $2000 to correct this error. Please do NOT make the same mistake that we made hiring Casey Construction. Also, beware!! They may change their names and work under a different name as one of the employees has done in the past. Beware of Casey Tompkins and Jason Trester.
