Beatty's Services

Mike's original verbal and emailed quote was far lower than the price he presented me with on the contract. His price was still lower than any other quote I had gotten so I still signed the contract. It was the end of September 2012 when he also began work. The day Mike was to begin work, he was not on time. Mike also did not even show up every day to work at my house. Thus, a job that was to be completed in 4 days (his estimate) is still not finished. It has been over a month since he began work. Originally, Mike did not excavate enough dirt out of one side of my basement, so he had to go back in (after the work was checked by my father) and take out stone and more dirt. Finally the floor was at the correct height to start pouring concrete. The concrete was poured after much prodding from me for him to finally finish the job (since it had been over a month since he started the work). I was present when Mike and his crew finished pouring concrete. I had to write a check directly to the concrete company because Mike had no funds to pay for the concrete. I then had to leave my house for the evening. When I arrived home later, the concrete floor was not sealed and my back porch and sidewalk was covered in concrete. No one bothered to clean up the mess. This was 6 days ago (it is now November 1st). Mike still has not been back to my house to put sealant on the concrete, install the sump pump, or clean up the huge mess that he left in my back yard. Now he is not answering his phone or returning my emails. All I want is for him to finish the job and fulfill the contract. Now I have to hire someone to put sealant on the floor and clean my back porch and sidewalk with acid to remove the concrete. He also ruined the wooden stairs that went down to my basement. Mike has been incredibly disrespectful of me and my property and my time through this entire process. His low prices are honestly not worth the stress and lack of sleep you will endure after hiring him. Even the quality of his work is not the greatest. I know it is a basement floor, but the concrete isn't even smooth. His just has no regard for anyone's time or property. I would absolutely never hire him again.
