During the sales cycle, Rick seemed very professional, honest and knowledgeable. He was the only GC that could provide a project plan on paper prior to starting. However, once the work started, things declined quickly. The crews said they did not have the materials needed. When I brought this to the attention of the owner of Bycon, Rick Byers, he disagreed. Rick did not hire the right crews for the right work as evident in the inspection report. Bycon did not adequately cover the main house to prevent water penetration and we lost a lot of drywall and have to repaint quite a bit. The best I could figure is that Bycon estimated that the remediation of the damage would cause him to lose money on the project. This was my worst experience with any service provider ever.
Description of Work: Bycon was hired as our General Contractor to build an addition above our garage. The scope of the work included demolition, framing, roofing, plumbing, electrical, siding, drywall, trim, and HVAC. Upon completion of half of the work, the owner of Bycon (Rick Byers) informed us that Bycon is abandoning the project. Approximately 40% of the work appeared to be complete and I had paid Bycon $24,000 for work in progress, 50% of work - out $4,000. Following the abandonment of the contract, I hired an independent certified inspector to review the project work that I had paid Bycon to complete. The inspection found: -Roofing and flashing was done improperly with improper materials and improper nailing causing gaps and holes in the roof. The entire roof will need to be replaced -Framing was incomplete and inadequate. -Ancillary damages caused by ByCon. During the construction period, ByCon failed to protect 'non construction areas' from damage. Consequently, drywall, paint and flooring damage occurred resulting in an estimated $5,000 in needed repairs. Bycon has declined to complete this work, remediate what they damaged or provide a refund.

The carpeting needed to be replaced, and we salvaged what we could. The carpet company that he hired when ahead and ordered the new carpeting. He ended up not paying the company for the carpeting. I ended up having to pay for the carpeting out of pocket as well as paying for the salvaged carpet and clean up work. He was also supposed to clean the entire premises where they did work, but this was never completed because he disappeared. After all of this, I decided to be my own General Contractor and I hired sub-companies to finish this job. This ended up costing me around $3000.00 out of pocket. The paint job he did before he disappeared was peeling, we had to re-do some of his tile work, plus a lot more. I really want to warn people about this guy and his company. He hires really cheap labor to get the work done as quickly as possible, thus his work is inadequately done. He lies, he cheats, he does not return phone calls, and he does not complete jobs that he commits to.
Description of Work: Remodel 2 bathroom, and re-paint a bedroom. I have worked with this company on and off for about 30 years. Many of my experiences with this company have been positive up until this last one which turned out horribly. I hired him recently to do a remodeling job. He ended up not completing the job, and he ended up disappearing. Before he disappeared, while they were working they pulled the washing machine out too far and disconnected the appliance which caused an area to flood. He did offer to pay for the repair, but did not follow through because he disappeared.
