McCray Builders

Project was supposed to be 3 weeks. It took 3 months. Job site was never cleaned up good. I finally got tired of stuff all over and removed trash myself. My property was damaged and Jim did not seem to care. I am still finding nails around the yard a year later. Jim is so used to telling people what they want to hear so much he believes his own BS. Quality of finished project was not up to my standards. I had to fight with him to not cut corners at the end. He said he was way over on the project. His sub would work 4-6 hours and leave. Jim did not seem to mind that. I asked him to not sent Jose many times and he still kept showing up. Jim was good at answering the phone. That is what made me go with him to begin with him to begin with.

Work has been underway for several weeks -- 3 weeks past estimated due date -- and it is still not complete.  Workers do not show up, plans and estimates are not documented well and we now have a muddy pit in the back yard and they are asking for more money.Avoid this contractor at all costs.  The ideas are great -- but just no control or management -- very poor on delivery.  And, for the price we are paying it is unacceptable.  We are reaching out to the Better Business Bureau.

They made verbal commitments that they never followed through on. They tried to switch the quality of lumber on me, but luckily i caught it.

I WASN'T VERY PLEASED WITH SERVICE. HE HAD TOLD ME THAT I COULD PAINT THE WOOD AND THEN HE WOULD INSTALL IT. HE HAD TO SUB OUT THE TRIM WORK, AND THIS PERSON WENT AHEAD AND INSTALLED THE WOOD WITHOUT LETTING ME PAINT IT, SO I HAD TO HIRE SOMEONE TO PAINT IT. THE PERSON WHO INSTALLED THE BRIT MOLDING DID NOT DO A GOOD JOB OF CAULKING. THINGS JUST DID NOT COME OUT THE WAY THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO COME OUT. WHEN I HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE ROOF, HE DID NOT CALL ME BACK BUT INSTEAD SENT WORKERS UNANNOUNCED WITHOUT EVEN CONSULTING WITH ME AS TO WHEN THEY WOULD ARRIVE, SO I WOULD NEVER KNOW WHAT THEY DID OR DIDN'T FIX. ONE OF THE SUBS' HELPERS HAPPENED TO BE VERY INEXPERIENCED, WHICH MAY HAVE LED TO SOME PROBLEMS.
