Gavin McWilliams told my father and I how he can handle insurance companies and repair my roof and fence. All he did was take our money and disappear.

Someone knocked on my door last week about taking a tree down. I filled out a form and signed it. I'm 79 years old and nothing was written on the form which was a red flag. They did trimming and didnt take the tree down, they cut at the base and it look like it will rust and fall over on the house, limbs on the roof and around the house didnt clean up anything. They sent me a bill for 12K and I was told 1,200. I wrote him a check for 1,300. I asked for a card and they didnt give me anything. They said the name of tree service is "Reliable". When I went outside to get a card they drove off. (Gregory Houston) was the man who came by.

My wife reached out to John Mercado (AKA John Angel, AKA EVF Construction LLC) to perform some yard work. The work to be done and price of $700 was agreed upon to perform the work. John requested $425 dollars up front to cover the cost of supplies. My wife sent him the money via Cash App. A few days later he asked for another $200 because he claimed he needed more money. My wife then sent him the $200. After receiving the money and promising to complete the job on multiple time, he disappeared and had ignored numerous phone calls and voicemails and will not respond to these repeated attempts to contact. Upon further investigation, we discovered that his license to work in Florida had previously been revoked and he is continuing to offer services through his company on a revoked license.

Called the company to service a furnace. We arranged a service date and time frame. They said they were running a promotional special for their service fees for the month. I said wonderful and gave my credit card to book the technician. At this time I was also able to schedule an electrician and roofer for different projects on our property.

The next day I get a call from another person and they inform me that their technician has had a medical incident and would not be able to make the appointment and do not know when they would return. I told them I would just like to cancel my services and want my money back. They seemed to not have my other appointments for an electrician or roofer that they would contract out. At This point I realize that this business is selling “service fee” reductions and no actual services. I check my credit card and see that I do have a pending credit to counter the debit from “premium home services 855-4350122”

Don Berman came to our house to give us a quote for some home improvement. He began the job, left one day and we never heard from him again. He left us with a half finished wall, unfinished bedroom, unfinished doors, unfinished windows, unfinished molding and no paint job.

Progressive Home by Homesite issued a homeowners insurance policy for my fiancé and I when we were applying for our mortgage with no problems. After a month of insuring us, the company had an inspection company come out to look at the home, who was on our property without consent. This inspection company claimed to find many issues with the house, even though it was previously inspected and cleared the inspection. Homesite wanted us to complete thousands of dollars of repairs to the house, including a new roof when our current insurance company said it was fine the way it was. We also had a professional roofer come and look at the house and were told that it was in great condition. Upon looking at reviews of the inspection company and Homesite it was obvious that this company has done this in the past and it feels as though Homesite is a scam.

I hired J and M lawn company via Facebook as friends and family recommended them for lawn care. They were inconsistent to show to begin with. In the month of September 2022 I made my monthly payment for 4 mows. Only 3 mows were completed. I messaged the owner about out 4th now and for our October invoice. At first they answered. But now they have stopped answering me texts. They still owe me one mow. I know this is minor but the company is basically ghosting me and who knows how many others they are taking advantage of. I have text messages documenting what they owe me, and they have not disputed what I am saying. I’m attaching my text messages and I also can attach proof of payment if needed (this system only lets me upload one document). It is not professional to accept payment and not follow through on services. If this is how a company operates they should not be in business.

I had a very odd phone call to discuss a project. This business is falsely advertising they have an A+ ScamPulse.com Rating. ScamPulse.com site shows they are NR...not rated. False advertising is the first step to scamming people. Only online reviews are 1 star with customers saying they are being ripped off. At least stop them from using ScamPulse.com false advertising. Scroll down their webpage and you'll find it. Did they attempt to take money? lol Never gave them the chance after seeing they lied about ScamPulse.com rating.

Advertising on (David Dew) Facebook. Was suppose to come do rinse cleaning and sent a guy. He sprayed something and he took $481 and it would take 10 days for him to come back. He wanted the money right away and they didnt take checks or venmo and his card machine didn't work so we gave him cash $481. It's been two months since we heard from him.

Called me offering “free roof inspection” wouldn’t give me company name or information. Caller insisted on showing up at my residence at 6PM on Wednesday.

 

The caller asked for an unknown individual. I immediately said he had reached the wrong number and he just kept talking. I again corrected him saying he had the wrong number. He continued to offer his services. He read my address to me, asked if I was under contract with any roofers, and then asked me for my gate code which I refused to give. He then said he would be at my residence at a given time and hung up. I tried calling back and it was an invalid number.

pressure elderly people into replacing expensive furnaces and hot water tanks

In early 2014 we bought the house with a contract of a transferable 15-year warrant for the roof. The contract was signed by the previous owner and the "Roofing Specialist" in 2013.

We found the roof leaking recently and call the number above. But the "Roofing Specialist" refused to keep the warrant.

Thanks in advance for your help.

He came in wanting to set up fund drawer for phases of home project. The first phase went good , he had a crew , next/ second phase only him, originally licensed/ bonded. By 2nd phase he wasn’t showing up as scheduled, Work became not up to standard. Requested money ti buy bricks and do Roof, we never saw him. We had to hire some to do roof-he left open,and to make repairs he took are money never came back.. ( started to rain, damaging work done. He is a con and very systematic liar who comes off as the perfect contractor initially. I am not the only client he done this was other judgments against himAKA *** Folmar

To make a very long story short. Homestar construction made lots of promises but did not follow through on any. The only thing they did was take our deposit and not do any work. We are now heading to small claims court. Please read the attachment.

Depew plumbing is not a real

Plumber , is not licensed , is not insured , is not bonded , & has no knowledge . He lies, scams , & does jobs horrid . If you complain he will threaten you . He has several judgements, & arrests . If you hear his name , stay away!

This company targets families who need home improvements. They give you an estimate and say they need to order materials first, so they only ask for a portion of the repair bill, Cash only. Then they showed me an estimate from Home Depot and say prices went up because of Covid and they need more money. we gave them the difference from the first amount. They then set up a date for demo. They came in with a huge crew and tear up everything, ask for money for the labor then never showed back up. They did the same to 3 other neighbors on my block simultaneously so that none of us what find out what had happened to the others house. They got 2 other families a few blocks away too. James Palma & a guy named Antonio ran the scam. A lady named Darcy would collect the money.

German Corona " The concrete guys" comes to a job, offers a bid, and claims he needs partial payment upfront. Starts work, comes back, and claims he needs the remaining balance before the concrete truck will pour. The concrete never comes he never shows up again. He comes up with excuses, stops responding, and has multiple phone numbers. He has horrible yelp reviews all stating he's a scammer. Numerous people have been ripped off by German Corona.

the man was recommended by the cabinet maker, took over my kitchen for months and left a mess. I cannot remove all of the Debree because i am disabled, so i still do NOT have my house back!

This company scammed me and my family by starting work, not finishing the work, then overcharging, asking for additional money after an agreement had been signed. They tried to charge thousands of dollars for work they did not complete. They leave a mess and are rude and disrespectful. If you hire them, you will never see your job complete.
