Customer ReviewsforZulu Contractors

I was terribly disappointed and frustrated with ****. Starting with long delays just getting a quote and signed contract, I hoped it would improve when work started. It did not. At the time, no ****** and BBB reviews warned me of this behavior but now (a year later), I see many other similar comments that I hope others will read and take to heart. A simple kitchen remodel that they said would take 3 weeks instead took 3 months. A general contractor is expected to schedule and manage their sub-contractors to get work done, yet he never showed up once (even when he promised to do some work himself) and I was the one that had to keep track of when everyone was expected to arrive to do what work, and then call and harass them to find out why they were days late and convince them to come back and do the work they were supposed to do. In every phase of the project, some part of the work had to be done twice to get it done adequately including the project manager quitting in the middle and a new project manager had to be assigned. And all work that was done seemed to be at 75-80% quality and they left trash/dirt behind at the end. I'm not sure if that was the best they could do or if they were intentionally cutting corners because they were behind or because I wasn't a priority, but either way it was only "minimum acceptable" quality and no better. The owner claims that he was doing it for a discount, or losing money, etc. which in itself is a bad practice, but wasn't my choice and shouldn't be a reason for bad work and customer service. Also, I tracked the hours and type of work everyone was doing throughout the whole project, and based on a generous assumption of hourly rate of contractors, either it's not true and was trying to justify being late and incompetent, or was telling the truth and his subcontractors were ripping him off.

The absolute worst! The closest to on time they ever were was 2 hours late if they showed at all. Zero communication or warning. Kept being passed from one sub to another, each unprepared for the project. Avoid at all costs.

The estimator showed up an hour late so we had him reschedule. The next day he was on time...telling me all that i wanted to hear. He wasted about an hour measuring and writing stuff down. He said he would have an emailed estimate to me rhe following day. 5 days later and still nothing. Ive texted him....nada. Dont waste your time or money with these people. They are on their OWN schedule.

Exercise caution when considering working with *******************. ***** has been known to exhibit condescending and disrespectful behavior. While his subcontractors are capable of completing work to an acceptable standard, it is important to remain patient with them as they work on their own schedule and may offer excuses for delays. In my case, my tenant was forced to endure two months with a vanity, tub, and toilet occupying the master bedroom due to delays by Zulu Contractors. Additionally, ***** defamed my character with my insurance provider when I was unavailable to respond to his demand for final payment, providing less than 72 hours and a final invoice had not been provided. Buyer beware.
