Business ProfileforTrinity Iron Works

Contracted contractor for a kitchen hood installation plus plumbing and make up air . Signed Nov 15,2022 and I paid a retainer of $5,000 .Quoted for $18,000 but might be lower since I did engineering and plans and drawings. Contractor stated he was license and promised to have kitchen done in 2 weeks after paying retainer . After 3 weeks he did zero work in my building after paying the retainer and I had to call him to come and work since he promised the job will be done by certain day. He told me there was an issue and I had to pay out of pocket a total of $15,000 for a grease trap installation, and make up air he wasnt even getting started but he told me I had to pay that or he couldnt go on with project. He then charged me $2,300 for another out of pocket expense for steel bars. A month went by and contractor still has not finished . 2 months has passed and he has not finished and is ignoring my calls I looked him up with licenses board and he isnt licensed as a contractor. All the job he did was not done up to code and building department inspected and it did not pass code, which lend me to have to correct them and pay extra to fix all his mistakes , I have lost 2 months work of business because of this company , and has caused lots of emotional distress and financial issues.
