DFW CEDAR CONSTRUCTIONS

Horrible!!!!

DFW Cedar did not complete the project.

See the above message...project is still ongoing. 

Contractor was ill prepared to perform the tasks in terms of tools, work crew and having necessary supplies and parts. For the most part, he worked less than half days. He was long on promises and planning skills and excuses for no shows but short on execution and preparation, Used improper wood and fasteners for deck support. Hot tub support structure was not sufficient to properly support tub to the point that the hot tub installers said warranty would be voided if not corrected. Patio cover has major construction errors and is not square or level. Contractor was ignorant of code requirements and structure was red-tagged for omissions. He refused to continue work without additional an payment for reaching a "dried in" construction milestone when in fact it was not "dried in" as reported and recorded by Fort Worth building inspector. Stone wall was partially constructed using junk stone, sloppily installed. Patio cover will have to be rebuilt and the partial stone wall removed and replaced by a stone mason. Contractor was not competent to do masonry. This contractor has an endless supply of excuses and bogus reasons for failures to perform. At one point he wanted to come to the house after 10;00 pm to secure a credit card payment. A report has been submitted to the Better Business Bureau and credit card charges are being disputed with Visa. Contractor is threatening to file liens and possibly pursue litigation.
