Initial building went well. The house started leaking water and wind with the first rain. Leaking badly around all windows, doors and walls causing a great deal of water damage to the interior of the house. Dallas Powers, the builder, said he could and would fix all of the problems/leaking. Then he began giving us excuses and not showing up. (Sore back, the flu, etc) Said he "had to get on with building another house." He also used "Calk" around windows and doors and this is NEVER done on a log home. Must use a special seal that "gives" as the logs change. (Energy Seal) We contiunued to have leaking all winter. Dalllas Powers never showed up again. We didn't trust him to do it right at this point. We hired another company to remove the calking, reseal all of the logs, corners, around all windows and doors, etc. VERY EXPENSIVE but we had to stop the water leaks outside before we could repair the damage inside. Insurance would not cover since it was a "builder problem." They sent someone out to take extensive pictures of all the damage. We are now working on the interior walls ourselves. (sanding out the stains and refinishing) I also have extensive pictures of all water damage. This builder should be stopped from doing this to others.
Description of Work: Built new log home on our property. We picked out the design and ordered the 'kit." He put it together. We ordered "Latch Key" service. We did not intent to do any of the work ourselves.
