Chris Dallas

Do not hire Chris Dallas for any work to be done on your property.  His behavior has proved him to be untrustworthy and a contractor (who is not licensed) with poor skills and no integrity. Always get a permit for any work to be done.  If the contractor tells you not to get a permit - do not use him.  This is what Chris Dallas said to me - "You do not need a permit for this work." If the contractor does not stop work at some point and call the city inspector for a go ahead to finish the job, RED FLAG. Talk to contractor, and call the inspector to come over and check out the work before it is finished. Never pay a contractor in advance. Never pay a contractor until you have the ability to inspect the job completely. No matter how small the job, put it in writing with a date, complete outline of the work to be done, and signed by all parties. Include the start and end date of the project in writing. If there are changes, write them out on the original contractor and have everyone initial and date.
