Description of Work: James Russell Butts took my $3,000 deposit and never did the deck job. He stole the money along with many other jobs in the area. Total scam artist.

Very Disappointed!!! Several reasons why...1) Didn't show up to the job till late morning(after 10 a.m.) and left the job early never working past 4:30 p.m. (2)Supposed to replace 4x4 posts and never did it and the existing posts he left stick up above our new fence. (3) supposed to replace the 2x4 stringers but left an 8 ft. section without replacing them and they are severely warped. (4) Did not clean up after himself daily and killed part of our grass from the teardown just sitting there for 4 days. (5) The fence itself is cedar and he never cut any pickets to fit, he just overlapped them up to 4 inches leaving a big gap at the corners and at the gates. (6) He was supposed to give us all new hardware... that did not happen and what he did give us, he just screwed the large lags through the pickets with no support leaving dangerous screws exposed over a 1/2 inch that one could injure themselves. (7) He broke several pickets and just left them. (8) The gates themselves had zero support and I'm sure they would not last through the spring and I REBUILT THE GATES MYSELF.(9) The hinges on the 4' gate were the wrong kind and so he just took a hammer and bent them over around the corner and of course breaking the overlapped picket. I am a over the road truck driver and was out of town and could not supervise Russell's work and he took advantage of me all the way!!! There is not enough room here on this page to describe All of the shoddy work he did. I did take a video and several pictures to prove my case. My daughter is helping me to take him to small claims court. BEWARE OF RUSSELL BUTTS---DBA Marshfield Landscaping & Fence, LLC My email address is papaoch617@yahoo.com I will be happy to communicate to anyone about my HORRIBLE experience!!!!
