Business ProfileforMasonry by Wm Rizzo, Inc.

On August 8, 2021, I received an in-person quote by Masonry by WM Rizzo, owners William and Chastity R to excavate and pour a driveway extension, a shed pad, and a back patio (all concrete work). The quote was for $5,500. On August 9, 2021, I signed a contract with Masonry by WM Rizzo and paid $1000 deposit via Zelle to Chastity R on 8/10. On 8/14, they were supposed to excavate the area to prepare to pour the concrete but rescheduled to 8/16. The area was excavated on 8/16. On 8/18, I paid $1750 to Chastity for the remaining deposit. They were supposed to pour the concrete 8/20 but due to a scheduling mistake, it was re-scheduled to 8/27. The people showed up then left without pouring anything. I tried to get ahold of Chastity twice on 8/27 with no response. I text at 8/28 and no one responded to me. I tried again on 8/30 to contact someone with no response. On 9/7, it was explained to me the work truck was in a wreck on 8/27 so they couldn't pour the concrete. On 9/8, they poured the driveway but did not pour the shed pad or back patio since they were short the 2 yards of concrete they said it would take. On 9/9, I paid Chasity $2,000 via Zelle for the work completed so far. The balance was to be $750 upon completion of the shed pad and back patio. I couldn't get in contact with anyone again until 9/17. Chastity then told me that the rest would be poured on 9/20. No one showed up. On 9/29, I got ahold of William and he told me they would pour the rest of the concrete on 10/1. No one showed up. On 9/27, I received a Notice to Owner/Notice to Contractor via certified mail from Steve's Excavating and Paving INC that a lien would be filed against my property for work completed but not paid for: crushed concrete road base, crushed concrete pipe bedding, roll off services, trash disposal service fees and any other materials and or services requested. A copy of the lien notice was also sent to Masonry by WM Rizzo.
