Real Deal Home Improvement

Quality of work is poor and much has to be redone.  Not sure if the work is shoddy because he walked out of the job and never returned to finish, or if he just does shoddy work as his method of operation.  Some of the project was never even begun before he walked out on the job.  Jerry told me he had to go to N. Carolina to do a "Jerusuleum" tile job, and never returned.  However, everytime he hit me up for payment, whether it was the hr. rate ripoff, or at the point where payment was due, I always paid him the amt. he demanded on the same day requested.  He walked off the job w/o completing the project and left a good amt. of work to be finished, although by this time I owed him very little money.  Another warning, do not pay more than 1/3 up front, otherwise you're likely to end up in the same bind as me.  Yet, he had no respect for how his erractic schedule negatively impacted & inconvienced me.  He's all about self, whether it's buying him lunch, a hammock, carpet, & whatever else he can beat out of you.  I would not recommend commissioning this co. to perform work on your home for any reason.

There is a local tile store owned by an Italian family.  Jerry called them "WAPS."

I had Real Deal perform a small job previously, which was to install crown moulding on the first level.  At no time prior to installation was I informed it would need to be re-caulked every year.  Had I been told this, I likely would not have had it installed.  Jerry informed me the incorrect kind of caulk was used, hence the cracking.
