CINCINNATI HOME IMPROVEMENT COMPANY LLC

Horrible Horrible con artist ...... Took almost 10,000 dollars for a job never came close to even starting the job and supposedly used the money for materials for the job that i have yet to see the reciete or material. It is now to the point of taking legal action and contacting lawyer.

My 84-year old mother-in-law didn't like the original contractor we, as the homeowner, had selected, so she tried to find one on her own. She selected Chris because he was charming with her and she felt she could "relate" to him. After giving him a deposit to start work on the project, he basically disappeared for over 10 days and didn't return any phone calls or emails. So we decided to do some research on him, and found very scathing, poor...no, BAD...reviews about others' experiences with him. I wish we had researched him more in depth before my mother-in-law gave him money. Others have stated he has a history of coming up with a story to explain his absences and lack of response to calls and emails, and for not completing a job as promised. When he did perform a job, a lot of others stated there was poor quality and additional costs. He also seems to me that he changes addresses and moves his company around. His current address (with the same phone number) is now listed in Lebanon, not Harrison. With this information, and due to his lack of response to our calls, we decided to terminate the agreement, especially since we as the homeowners never agreed nor signed anything with him - it was just with my mother-in-law. He soon after responded with a story about how he had been called away on an emergency in Florida and someone else in his company was supposed to handle things but didn't. He promised to return my mother-in-law's deposit to her since no work had been performed, not even applying for permit (which he outright lied about having done). To date, the money has not been returned. The other reviews on him and his company are pretty accurate...I would not recommend hiring him. I cannot personally vouch for the quality of his work since he didn't do anything. But ethically, he gets an F in my book. I believe he has no business even being listed on Angie's List.

It was terrible. He cut my door wrong twice and the two men he had working for him were from out of town. He never finished a single project and kept asking for more money. He made appointments and wouldn't show up. I have a toilet that was supposed to go in the bathroom that has been sitting there for a month. He kept telling me he was going to come and wouldn't show up, but continued asking for more money saying he needed to pay his workers. I finally left him a voicemail saying that if he was unable to do the work, I wanted my money back. He's a con man.

He came on time and did what he said he was going to do.
