I paid Mike Hancock a deposit to do some remodeling to my home. We had a written contract. After over 4 months of run around and NO WORK to my house I ask for my deposit back. He said he would give it back to me but then backed out of refunding me via email. We recently went to court, the judge ruled in my favor and I have a judgement against his company. Have not received my deposit back.

"The only portion of work that had to be gone back to was the ceiling painting. It didn't cover well on the first coat. The client called and made us aware and we came back out the very next day and painted that ceiling again and it was perfect. There were never any damaged materials reused. This house was getting some touchups for marketing purposes as the owner was leaving the state. She had the opportunity to review our work before payment and she said she was satisfied and paid the bill. This is the first I've heard of anyone not being happy with this little patch job."

All went very well. The contractor showed up at all times promised and phoned to let me know if he was going to be delayed. We were given a Project Outline of the procedures that were to be performed along with a firm price (highly satisfactory, I wish to add) for the job. I wasn't present when the workers put the floor in, but my wife was. She kept my abreast of their progress while I was out-of-town working. The workers were a little slower than expected BUT they did a very thorough job, which in retrospect was no problem. I highly recommend this home improvement business!

After a number of months and little assistance from Mr. Hancock in contacting my insurance company Mr. Hancock subcontracted the roofing out to a gentleman from Henderson, NC. The roofing was done sometime in the spring of 2012 (not 2 years ago). I was not given the subcontractor's name nor was I given the name of the roofing product with the 30 year guarantee I was promised. Mr. Hancock requested that I pay 4500 dollars for the roof rather than the agreed upon 4000 dollars but agreed that he would reduce the exterior painting to 4000 dollars.
I now have a roof leak around the chimney. I called several months ago and then again recently with the heavy rains in May. Mr. Hancock came to the house while I was at work and caulked the metal chimney flute coming up of a wooden chimney stack extending from the roof. He also caulked along the base of the chimney. He declared there was nothing wrong with the roof shingles or the flashing. He declined to call the roofer who did the roofing stating: and quot;he's not going to want to come all the way down here ... it was done 2 years ago.and quot; When it continued to leak I telephoned him again and he stated that the leak probably was caused by the damaged wood siding of the chimney stack which was not his responsibility.
Which of brings me to review the exterior painting . He originally agreed that the cedar siding would need brush painting and some filling of knot holes and replacement of some of the wood. He stated that spray painting would not be sufficient for the cedar siding. He arrived with his crew with a spray painter during the summer of 2012. He stated then that the cedar siding could not be brush painted and that knot holes could not be filled because the filling would fall out. He did not replace any of the wood siding.
Now he tells me that the wood siding of the chimney needed to be replaced and that he knew at the time his crew did the painting but and quot;I knew that you were tight on money and I didn't want to tell you because I'm not that type of person.and quot; As a medical provider if I saw a suspicious lesion on someone's body and didn't tell them or have it biopsied because I didn't think they could pay for it I would be negligent. Apparently he doesn't agree that is an appropriate analogy. I have asked him for the roofer's name and the type of roofing that is supposed to have a 30 year warranty but he has not provided that information. He apparently doesn't think I need that information about my home repairs that I paid and obviously I think I am entitled to the information. I left a message on his cell phone today that I would have to call a lawyer to require him to give me that information if he doesn't provide it.
As it stands I will have to hire someone to fix the roof or chimney stack or whatever to eliminate the leak. The leak around the chimney after the hurricane is why I hired Mr. Hancock. Mr. Hancock may be right that the roofing shingles and flashing is not the cause. I have no faith in his word. But as the painter who had painted the chimney siding he should have told me that there was a problem rather than letting it go to the point of having a major leak.
I found Mr. Hancock to be less than professional for both of the jobs he contracted to do. He seems to imply now I didn't pay him enough to do it either job properly. I would not have hired him if he was not able to do the job properly for the money he agreed to. I did have other similar estimates and his was not the lowest estimate. He made promises that he could not keep. He should not have made them. I only received 3500 dollars from the Insurance company for the roof and the rest came out of savings. I am frustrated by his reaction and approach in resolving this problem. .
Response from Hancock Home Solutions
"In short the client is upset that we wouldn't perform extra work for free. We have bent over backwards to help this Client. She has been relentless in her attacks on me and the company because she has a problem that she thinks we either caused or should have fixed for free. The roof and the painting were completed in the highest standing. I have around 25 photos of before, during and after the work as as I do on every job, to avoid misplaced disputes such as this one. After the job being completed for 2 years, the Client called me about a leak. I did go out to her property and took pictures for her review. The chimney was leaking from the inside and leaking inside her fireplace. This had nothing to do with the roof or the paint. I took, and sent her, several pictures of the roof the flashings and the sealants that were applied two years prior and they all looked brand new. I informed her as well that I would add extra sealants while I was up there, if it made her feel better, but that I knew this wasn't the problem. She said she had always had problems with the chimney. In fact she called me before the hurricane to repair the ceilings from years of damage. She didn't call me back until after the hurricane hit to do the work. I sealed around the base of the chimney and sent her a picture over the phone. I told her that the chimney could use some help but everything we were hired to do was performing as intended. She called me back out about the chimney leaking and to appease her I went by again and her daughter was home. I showed the daughter how it was leaking from inside the chimney and that I felt that it was the cap causing the problem. I was in constant contact with her and she was well informed but refused to hear the truth. She simply wanted to blame us and make us fix it for free. The roof did cost a little more because she went up on the shingle quality but at least she admits that I reduced my part of the work by $500 to compensate. I did not pass the subcontractors info onto her as she was contracted through us to do the work. I also forwarded her the web address to fill out the warranty info and she was given a hardcopy before we ever started the job. Since she is likely to read this I will point out again that they were Pinnacle, Limited Lifetime warranty (35yrs) Architect Shingles. As for the paint, I did wind up using a spray method because her cedar siding was so rough. I suggested replacing 80% of it but she couldn't afford to. That's when I decided to spray it. If you know anything about painting you will know that spraying is much more expensive than rolling or brushing and that with rough cedar you cannot get the appropriate penetration. It takes a LOT more paint to spray and it is a lot more tedious and time consuming yet I didn't change my price and I even went down $500 so she could get the roof too. We also used Fortis 450 by GLIDDEN. A very expensive paint of the highest quality. We also used GRIPPER primer by GLIDDEN for the primer coat. It took about 18 Gallons extra to spray at nearly $70 per gallon. She also fails to mention how we repaired her deck, that was in shambles, so it would simply be safer for her (the rails and steps were falling apart) and that we used the left over paint to paint that deck to get her a few more years out of it. All out of kindness over hearing her complain about it every day. This is another example of a client wanting something for nothing and when she can't get it she gets on the internet to bash your reputation as much as possible. But for all you folks out there who are thankfully taking the time to read this reply, I have, as I said, a complete file of the each and every job including all photos and contract agreements for your review should you want the actual truth."

Did all asked repairs, but did not pay attention to the details. Did not paint all the trim; had to call to schedule follow-up appointments. Was slow returning once paid. Damaged dining room wall during construction, but did repair and paint free of charge. Workers smoked on job and in the house; did not clean up after themselves. Cut electric wires under the house while performing service and refused to pay to have them fixed. Had to get a separate electrician out to repair. Did a good job putting doors on office, but refused to paint them. In summary, a nice guy who works very hard; however, those who work under him aren't nearly as professional. Additionally, I would say he was too busy. Felt rushed, which might be why there were follow-up problems with floor (air pockets), dining room (cut electric wires), office doors (never painted), tools (left laying around), and the hot water heater (used a cord that was too small during installation which could cause fire). Would I use this provider in the future? I don't know. I might give him a second chance.
Response from Hancock Home Solutions
"The first thing I'll say is that this job is WAY older than the review and I though we had resolved this a LONG time ago. I have to agree that this client has a point about the fellow that was working under me on this project. It happens sometimes in the construction world that you get one that's not quite up to snuff. He might be happy to know that he had to seek other employment directly following this job. I will also defend that I was on this job the entire time and no one smoked in the house. WE NEVER DO THAT! I will also still hold fast that we never cut any wires under the house. Thankfully this client's father is an electrician and repaired whatever the problem was promptly. And it's always interesting that we never get credit for all the little "freebies" we do on the job. In this case, Installing a nice outdoor sink in the garage. It is a shame about this job because I liked the clients so much. Nice people. Still the fact is that they were wanting a lot of little extras and I did 90% of what they wanted but I felt that I could not continue to do work for free and told them that fact, which they weren't happy with and couldn't understand why I wouldn't. So, that is how the relationship ended as it often does when you won't perform "freebies". I would also be willing to give this client another chance. Like I said, I liked him. Nice Guy"

My experience with them went very positive. They worked hard, they got nice employees, and they did a good job on everything that they have done. They started out, we had moisture under the house and they put the installation. It's a major project and it went very well. They painted the whole house, the roofing went well and the last thing they did was fix the tiles in the bathroom which also went well. We are expecting them this week to build the garage. I have nothing but positive comments about them. They're very professional, they're employees there are great and they have nice outfit. I am very happy with them and they did a good job. They're real nice to work with, they came but I don't know with the pricing. The staffs are impressive as well as the quality of work. I found them on Angie's List and I am more impressed with them than anybody else. I think they're great.

Mike Hancock and his crew did an outstanding job staining and treating our fence and deck. They were punctual and efficient. They were polite in their interactions and were willing to answer questions as they proceeded with the job. The deck and fence look great. They even stained our mail box post, which was unexpected. We would gladly use his home repair/ remodel service again.
Angela Hancock, Mike's wife, has been cleaning our house on a bi-monthly basis since the beginning of the year. She does an excellent job for a very reasonable price. In fact, we were so satisfied with Angela's performance and work effect, we figured it must extend to the rest of their family owned company, Hancock Home Solutions. That was why we decided to hire Mike to do the fence.
They are very nice people who do quality work!

My kitchen is magazine ready!!! Everything went exactly as he said it would and I could not be happier!!!! If I had known it would be this easy and this this wonderful I would have done it years ago. As I stated above, all the work performed was done professionally, on time, and with great care. They really paid attention to my needs and wants and gave me exactly what I was looking for. This being the second project Mike has done for us and the result being exactly the same both times, I believe this is a solid company with a very bright future and I will continue to recommend them to ANYONE who even mentions needing work done. Thanks again Hancock Home Solutions for all your hard work!!!
