TIM CARR CONSTRUCTION

When Tim Carrs kids are not in school he takes them to the job site. These kids have no one to watch over them and they are not well behaved children. I was not home most of the time he was working as I also work. The first day they scraped the old shingles off the roof. I came home from work right when they were finishing up. All four of his kids were climbing up an extension ladder, running across the roof, jumping down on the top of the cab of the dump truck, sliding down the windshield , sliding across the hood of the truck, jumping to the ground and running around to the ladder to do it all again. All this was going on while these workers were trying to workon the roof. The Carrs didn't even seem to notice that their children could be in harms way. My father stated that this kind of behavior was going on all day. Acting like a professional did not happen on this job. This was one of the reason why my father did not tell me about the bathroon leak. He had just about had it with the Carrs and their kids.

It did not go well. When I called the Carrs about the leaking ceiling they did come down right away....the whole conversation consisted of "this is going to take too much work, you have to move all this furniture out of here, take the fan lights down, replace all the dry wall.. this is not my fault, its an act of God, this was caused by a ice jam. but he will get back to me..............six weeks or so I called the Carrs again, and yes he would be getting back to me...............I am not sure how much time went by and still no word so I called one more time..............well, this time he is going to get some estimates written up and he would be getting back to me......yep, you guessed it, never heard another word from them.....Begining of November I got another contractor in to give me an estimate to replace the roof.....called the Carrs the middle of November and told them how much it was going to cost....the conversation got heated as he said if I would have called him one more time why they would come and fix the problem.....he also said that I had two years use out of the room, what more did i want.....I told him he could sent me a check and we could settle out of court or I was going to sue him,...he said I should go ahead and sue as i didn't have a warranty....and when I asked hime if this was how he ran his company he hung up on me..........well, I took him to court and he was found liable.........the roof that he put on this addition was too flat for shingles,,,,you need a pitch of at least 2/12 and he had less that 1/12...so the water just lays on top of the shingles and can't run off, so it starts to seep thru....he had no defense, all he did in court was to call me names......I thought the judge left the name calling go on for too long, but he too, got tired of it and told them that he had had enough.... I know the Carrs were very angry, but I was the one whose house has been devalued..........I am waiting for my check to arrive..........he has thirty days in which to pay.........so, the roof is still not repaired, but I put a tarp over it........I am a senior citizen and feel that no one should be treated in this fashion
