Working with Clark to fix issues with Heating and Air system and gaps in hardwood floor.
Not
very responsive lately. Let me know if you are considering using E
& L and need more info. I have lots of interesting and strange
stories about our dealings with Clark.
For example:
After
Clark finished the second floor several cracks appeared over about 4
months in our walls on the first floor. Clark said he wanted to wait
until 12 months have passed before coming and fixing the cracks. Then
after 12 months he told us the cracks were not the result of the new
floor being added, he said they were the result of the first floor
settling. I thought that was very strange, because they did add 15 tons
of weight on top of our house. He insisted that the weight was so well
distributed, that it didn't cause the cracks. I told him that I
thought settling was when the ground (after being recently dug up for
the foundation) settled and caused the house to move slightly and this
could cause cracks. He said, "yes, your first floor is settling and its
not the addition that is causing it". I told him I thought it was
strange for a house built in 1964 to just now decide to settle. Again
he insists that the new cracks were not the result of his work. Very
strange.
The heat pump Clark added freezes up and makes a lot of
noise during damp and cold nights. He says there is nothing wrong with
it. I have googled this and see it is a common issue when the defroster
is defective.
Another quick example is the hardwood floors have a
4 mm crack right down the seam of the two halves of the modular. Clark
is saying that we need to use a humidifier and it will go away. It is
clear that it is the result of the modular shifting (also probably the
same cause of the cracks downstairs).
