It all started out okay. He was prompt in giving an estimate and his guys showed up on time the first day and dug in. I was given a 4 day estimate for completion. 2 weeks later they still were not done. His guys didn't show up every day and Mickey was sending them to other jobs instead of ours. He kept asking for more money. Mickey asked me if one of his guys could sleep in our house since he didn't have anywhere else to stay. Seriously. His guys used mismatched outlet colors, some ivory, some white, in the same box! The city inspector came by and gave him 6 or 7 dings, which Mickey changed. But first he got upset with me for letting him see everything. He apparently hadn't bought permits for the whole job, and now had to. When the job was finally done (almost), we discovered a handful of lingering issues. Mickey stopped answering his phone and missed the handful of appointments that he'd made for finishing. I finally saw him one day at Lowe's and he came by the next day to fix the problem. This problem was that they'd installed the bathroom fan, but never the exterior exhaust, so it was venting moisture directly into our attic. He told me no problem, and had his foreman do the job. 5 minutes later he was 'done.' And then I saw the job. He'd attached the vent to the fan and placed the exhaust end next to an attic vent. The hose was held in place with an errant 2x4 he simply laid across it. I told him that wasn't acceptable and Mickey had to return with the proper roof venting hardware. They finished. There were other problems too, like wire junctions with out boxes in our crawlspace. When I found these while doing some other work, photographed it, and told Mickey, his first response was "why were you under your house?" They took care of the problem, but not without attitude. To this day there are issues with 3 way switches, and the fact that they wired my bathroom into our garage sub panel instead of the main panel. I am just tired of contacting him. Additionally, and most importantly, he claims to be licensed, and has his number, but when I checked with the city the license was out of date and he had no current bonding or insurance. I would highly advise folks to look elsewhere.
Description of Work: Whole house rewire, upgraded service from 100 to 200a, install exterior outlets, install garage sub panel, many extra outlets, install bathroom fan.
