    Over charge of concrete and delivery: - - On Oct 20, 2021 Lend-a-hand was to deliver a prepaid load of 4.5 yards to my location. The pour was an exact pour consisting of 6 2ft x2ft x4ft boxes, and 4 1ft x 1ft x 4ft boxes. - - Calculation where made by self and with an online concrete calculator. Formula for calculating volume: (W x D X H = Cubic) (27 CuFt = 1 CuYd) - - (1. 2ft x 2ft x 4ft = 16CuFt) ( a. Convert to Cubic Yards)( i. 16/27 = 0.59 CuYd ) (b. Round Up (0.6 CuYd)) (c. 6 boxes x 0.6CuYrd = 3.6 CuYd) (2. 1ft x 1ft x 4ft = 4 CuFt) (a. Convert to Cubic Yards)(i. 4/27 = 0.148 CuYrd) ( b. Round Up (0.15 CuYrd)) (c. 4 boxes x 0.15CuYrd = 0.6 CuYrd (same as a 2x2, see line 1.b)) (3. Total volume) (a. SubTotal 1.c: 3.6) (b. SubTotal 2.c: 0.6) (c. Total required volume: 4.2 CuYrd) - - An order was placed for 4.5 CuYrd and included delivery. Again, these are boxes, there is no variation. Max, total fill is 4.2 CuYrd. - - Truck showed showed up. He ran out of concrete after 3 yrds. Claimed he brought 3.5. He poured 4 (2x2) and 2 (1x1) and 1/4th of another 2x2. A total of 3.0 yards. Driver said he'd need to go back and get another yard, and that he only brought 3.5 yards. Looking at the total boxes filled, I told him he needs to get 1.5 yards. He left and I received a call from Lend-a-Hand about extra charges. I told the lady on the phone,"No, the drive showed up with a short load, and he is returning to get the rest of his load." Driver returned and the remaining boxes were filled. Driver dumped remaining on site. There was nothing left, only about a 5 gallon bucket. - - (All boxes filled, nothing left over .... 4.5 yards) They charged my card a second time, an extra 159. I called and they said the driver had to come back and get another load. I told him, no the drive showed up short. All I received was 4.5yards. The original order was 4.5 yards and prepaid. - - They will not return my calls. I called 3 times. They owe me $159.

    I purchased a 2021 ******* mini skid steer from Jeff ******* the owner of lend a hand rentals for $30,000. I live in New York, and we did FaceTime going over the machine as he stated it was in great condition. And I did not squabble about the price thinking it was in great condition. I asked him if his mother was to buy this would he sell it to her ,he said absolutely (I guess he’s not very fond of his mother). When the machine finally arrived to me, the machine had 93.4 hrs came with one key ,was missing bolts, grease fittings, and a ripped track. The engine oil was like Carmel and the air filter was cluttered with dust . The bucket it came with head teeth that were caked on with concrete and I had to use a torch to cut them off(cost me another $60 for bolts) . I called him and asked him if he could send me some bolts to hold the carriage together, and another key for the machine as trying to get Parts from ******* is impossible. He said yes, it’s not a problem. It’s been over 2 1/2 months I’ve called and left numerous messages for him on his cell phone and at lend a hand with Sam and he does not call back. When you call his cell phone you get his voicemail which says this is Jeff. I can’t get to the phone at the end. Have a blessed day!This guy acts like some kind of holy roller, which he is a far cry from being a honest stand up guy! (I’m still waiting for that additional key ) I wouldn’t buy anything from this lying cheat! take your business elsewhere! If there are any good reviews on this guy there probably bogus reviews .
