Up front, I want to say that we did get what we paid for (which was a lot), and my only gripe is that we were not kept apprised of how much over the estimate we were going to go. We did add some things on as the project continued, but my husband did not think that the over-run would be as high as it was. The contractor is a very pleasant man and we also thought highly of all of the subcontractors that he hired. His foreman, in particular, was excellent. However, the estimate that the foreman gave as the work was about to be finished was about $5K less than what it ended up to be. This made the financing issue kind of touchy. On top of that, the contractor told us that we had been remiss in paying some invoices, and we were thoroughly unsure of what he was talking about. Also, as we did not anticipate such a great cost over-run, we are having to find creative ways to pay the extra on which we are being charged monthly interest. I realize that this is not a cradle to grave overall assessment, but, in a word, the biggest problem with this contractor is POOR COMMUNICATION.
Response from JOHN PAISLEY BUILDER INC
"I'M SURPRISED THAT THIS MEMBER WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH THE COMMUNICATION DURING THEIR PROJECT. THE PROJECT DID TAKE LONGER THAN EXPECTED BUT WE EXPANDED THE WORK SIGNIFICANTLY. ADDING ELECTRICAL WORK, REFINISHING HARDWOOD FLOORS, FINISHING AN ATTIC SPACE ON THE SECOND FLOOR, REPLACING A WINDOW AND DOING UNEXPECTED ROOF REPAIR. OUR CONTRACT WAS ON A 'COST PLUS FEE' BASIS SO WE DID NOT PROVIDE WRITTEN CHANGE ORDERS BUT THE ESTIMATED COSTS AND TIME OF ALL ADDITIONAL WORK WERE DISCUSSED. WE ALSO BILLED THE MEMBER ON A MONTHLY BASIS TO KEEP THEM AWARE OF THE ONGOING COST CHANGES. AT LEAST 1 OF THOSE INVOICES WAS UNDERPAID AT THE TIME MAKING THE FINAL BILL HIGHER THAN EXPECTED. WHEN THE MEMBER LET ME KNOW HE WAS HAVING A HARD TIME MAKING THE FINAL PAYMENT WE MADE ARRANGEMENTS FOR MONTHLY PAYMENTS WITH INTEREST (OUR STANDARD POLICY). I BELIEVE THAT IN THE END WE WAIVED THE INTEREST."
