New Age Construction

My initial impression of Jerry Miller was positive when we met to discuss the project. In fact we made some changes to the way the new garage would be placed on the property based on his suggestions. I supplied all of the detailed information and drawings to all of the potential contractors in March of 2013 and I got a reply back from Jerry saying it would take a couple of weeks to provide his estimate unless we were in a hurry. We were not and I told him that would be fine. In early May, after not receiving any bid, I queried him as to whether New Age were going to bid on the project and he replied right away that they were interested and he would send his estimate when it was complete. However, I never heard from him again until the first week of August when he sent me a bid without any comment on the fact that it had been three months. By this time, we had already selected a contractor and the garage is complete! Again, we had assumed that his company was not interested so I had not let him know when a contractor was chosen. The proposed price in the bid was also very high, more than twice all other bids. So again, my guess is that Jerry and his company would do a good job; that during our initial visit he seemed very professional and discussed the project in detail, bringing up things I had not thought about. I realize there may very well be extenuating circumstances that I am not aware of, but without any explanation for the long delay in communication, would not recommend using this company.
