Initial Complaint

- Complaint Type:
- Service or Repair Issues
- Status:
- BBB unable to locate business
I hired ********************************* to perform a basement remodel. Total charge (in the contract) was to be $29,000.00. I paid him half up front to buy all needed erials including bath and electric fixtures, appliances construction materials, ect. He spent no more than $3000.00 towards this and he admitted to spending the rest for personal use including a truck, medical bills, household bills. His explanation was "it doesn't matter as long as I finish the job on time and to completion". He made a big mess of my basement and then gathered his tools and equipment while I was at work and abandoned the job. I got the help of a law office and we discovered that he was not licensed, or bonded as he had assured me he was. I am not in process of filing a lawsuit to try to reclaim my stolen money. This occured in *******, **. He currently resides here. I am sure based on what I read that he has pulled this same type of scam in *******, the state he moved here from. This fraud occured from Nov. 2, 2023 until Feb. 1 when he disappeared from active involvement in the project. If you can help me get my money back that would be wonderful. Also, can you tell me about any prior complaints against him. He is *********************************,********************************************************************************* ************** (his phone #) thanks.......Customer response
