Gautier's Contracting & Trucking, LLC

I received excuse after excuse as to why the job was not started (i.e. his truck broke down, his trainer axle broke, his welder was hospitalized, etc.) When he did finally start (4 days late) he showed up with an excavator at 9:30 AM to remove a 14'x 12' patch of grass. He worked 20 minutes and left. Rain started. He returned with a load of "dirt" (heavy or "fat" clay) which was tracked through the property that was wet from rainfall. We instructed him that we did NOT want clay like he had just dumped. He left 25 minutes later. 2 hours later(2:00 PM) he returned. It was raining, but he dumped another load of clay onto the job site and began rolling over it with the excavator. The rain poured down, he continued to roll up and down over the clay, trying to pack it down. All the while, making a swamp on the property. 4 days later at 10:30 AM he dropped of rebar and wire mesh and left. At 6:42 PM he returned with a load of dirt. Spread it and left 25 minutes later.This type of on and off work continued for 2 full weeks. Then after concrete was finally poured, he failed to put in all anchor bolts, and those he did put in were so far from the edge that they didn't fall in line with the base plate. Four days after he was supposed to return to remove the form, we had not heard from him so we had to get someone else to complete the job so the building contractor could finally start. This was the worst construction job I have ever seen. I recommend this company to no one. He talks a good talk, but honestly does not know how to perform. In the beginning this was going to take 2 days, starting on a Monday (Aug 6th) and building could begin on Friday (Aug 10). There were some rain days, but those were all after the proposed start and finish dates.
