I assumed he knew what he was doing as he used to work for a major contractor in town but his work was sub-par. For instance, while cutting through the drywall and studs to make the box for a recessed medicine cabinet, he failed to take into account that the other bathroom was directly opposite and very nearly cut through the wiring for the other bathrooms light fixture. He was going to install this medicine cabinet by screwing it to the back wall "because that's the way they had it mounted in the store". My husband had to put in supports so it could be mounted from the sidewalls - where there were holes to do so and how it was intended to be mounted. He put up new drywall before installing the new window (delivery was delayed because he ordered the wrong one) Then when he did install the new window he somehow cracked the new drywall (which by this time had already been painted so it needed to be patched and painted all over again)This new window was installed almost a half inch out of square. We told him we wanted flat walls (no texture applied) and that we wanted to view the patching and sanding before it was painted, but that did not happen and the finish was terrible - you could see errors all over. The shower had been leaking for over a year and we told him at the time he placed the bid that we wanted all new subfloor installed due to the fact it smelled like rotten wood, however he and his plumber sub-contractor decided what was there was fine and they were planning on leaving the old sub-floor until I came home and found them "waiting for it to dry out". Instances like this continued until we eventually paid him off and let him go, finishing the job ourselves and hired another company to put a new window in.
