Description of Work: The name of the owner of this business it 'Tim' who came out to measure the approximate length of the curb that should go in my backyard. He said that 'I am a catholic and I have very good work ethics'. Tim was professional, the attire could have been better. He works with his 20 year (guess) old son, it is a 2 man business. He used a measuring wheel to measure the length of the job, it came out to 350 feet. He had warned that it could be more or less depending on the final job, as there are slight curves added to make it more pleasing. A week later on the day of the job he had spray painted and began to curb. I was really upset when I saw the curbing machine. I will see if I can add the pictures. It was an old richety machine with bad wheels, mismatched wheels with a lot of wires temporarily holding everything together. The job went OK, he left a lot of concrete that gets dropped to the side in the lawn, I had to shovel them away from the grass. At the end when it was time to measure, he didnt bring the measuring wheel, instead he chose to walk and said it is about 349 feet. His son kept saying that the measuring wheel is in the truck why dont you use it, he didnt. I was surprised to see how he could walk and measure so accurately. I trusted his number and paid for the job. Couple of days later I borrowed a measuring wheel from a friend, measured it out to find it was 309 feet. Tim had lied to me and I had paid for an additional 41 feet. Now I know why he didnt want to bring out the measuring wheel after the job. I had called his cellphone so many times, left messages but he would never return calls. I had sent him text messages, he wouldnt reply. Not knowing if he was still in business, I used a different land line to speak with him, pretending to have a new job. He answered, I threw some numbers to get a quote, but never followed up with him. Please choose someone else who is honest for your curbing job. DONT HIRE TIM!!
