"FRENCH DRAINS: French drain trenches MUST BE FILLED with rocks above the installed drain lines. 13 tons of 1/2" rock were used (I have no idea how the customer was able to calculate the "17 tons" weight of rocks delivered by **** ******* Construction), the rocks was used to expand existing driveway with additional flat work, build a new concrete walkway and French drains. Approximately 100 lineal feet of drain pipe directing water from each downspout out to the field were connected to each downspouts, independently of each other. The drain pipes were topped rock and then with the soil that was removed from the trenches. Customer replaced the required 4" in diameter corrugated connectors to the downspouts with 3" diameter rigid white pipes. No drain box was installed because it was not needed therefore not included in the contract. I advised the customer that I would do the tractor work to grade the areas over the new French drains while we were still working on the property at no extra cost to him if he purchased additional fill dirt. The customer declined because he wanted to do the final grading himself the following year. No further response will be offer regarding this subject. GARAGE DOORS: Renner Supply come to the property in question in three separate occasions to: 1) Initially install the garage doors. 2) Adjust the garage doors. 3) Install decorative handles. Customer hired Renner Supply, decorative handles were not included in the Contract. MAN DOOR: A water test WAS done after installation of man door. No leaks were detected. However I will test the door again for leaks. This has been offered already via the BBB where the same complaint was filed and the customer will not accept any resolution. The BBB case has been closed."
We were pleased with Gene's work. There were some issues with the floor installation but he came back to make repairs. It was a very busy time for him and he had vacation plans so there was some delay in returning. That is the only reason for lower grade.
Gene had excellent suggestions and ideas which made the project results even better than we had planned.
Workmanship was high quality. Timing and completion ran over, but this was due to my addition onto project.
The workers were considerate and trustworthy. Tools and materials were picked up every day before leaving.
