Do not use Chris Forde for anything. He is a good salesman and the worst human being ever. He made multiple mistakes in our kitchen design, but since we were in the middle of the work, I couldn't fire him. We ended up paying more money to fix the issues since he kept lying. Towards the end, he was pushing to get paid with the agreement that he finishes fully with touch ups. The last time that he came after he was paid, he specifically told his son to not complete the touch ups. I have worked with multiple contractors for building a full house from ground up. I have dealt with some very good contractors and a few bad ones. But the bad ones were like angles comparing to Chis Forde. Upon further check up on him, we realized quite a few people had issues with him, under different company names. If there was an option, I would give him -1000.
Description of Work: We already had a contractor complete the mess that Chris Forde had created.

In short do not use this company for any work of any kind! Missed multiple completion deadlines, had to have them repeatedly come back out to fix issues, many issues never resolved. Workmanship was sub-par, multiple cabinet door holes are not square, one door panel warped, drawers made too shallow so they did not attach to the rear of the runners. Chris Forde, the owner, gave our phone # and address to his sub-contractor who then harassed us for payment after we had made payments.
Description of Work: Build & install custom cabinet & Bookshelf
