This went horrible. First there was two rooms and even though I asked them to do the furthest room first they did not. Shannon and Regina sheet rocked the first room and it was horrible. They left huge gaps between the sheet rock sheets and did not us tape. They just tried to mud the gaps which when it dried looked like it was done by a four year old. Then they took another job and Shannon go hurt on the other job. I asked him if we should hire someone else and he said no he was fine and he could finish the job. Every day that they actually did show up it was always at least two hours later than stated the day before. One day my wife and I had to literally baby sit their five kids because they brought him to our home. When they did start sanding they didn't let us have a chance to cover anything up so everything that was up stairs was covered in sheetrock dust. We had in house air conditioner up stairs which I think is ruined because not only did they not protect it from the dust it even got painted on. Finally on the last day my wife went up stairs and Shannon was literally laying on the floor. My wife said what is wrong and he said honestly My wife doesn't know what she is doing. This after we was told that they both knew how to do the work. My wife asked the to leave. To date we have had seven more handymen come in to give bids and all seven said that they have never seen work more horrible than what S & R have done. Now I have pay someone else more to fix what S & R did they also keeped the first half of the money paid to them. Horrible horrible frustrating experience for me and my family.
Description of Work: S & R was to finish the upstairs bedroom sheetrock work and other small basic carpentry items.

This was a very frustrating experience. Was told that this job would take two weeks, and after four weeks I had to let them go. One day I literally had to baby sit his five kids so he work. Sheet rock mudding was pitiful. You can still see finger marks where they used their hands to smooth it out. When the sand, they didn't give me notice so now I have sheet rock dust all over my items that was in the room. They always arrived an hour later than what they stated the day before. Shannon and Regina painted the half the room and then mudded over the paint again. I had three carpenters come today to finish what they couldn't, all three told me this was the worst dry wall work they have ever seen and the closet was shabby at best. My wife actually caught him lying down taking a nap one day. Which doesn't make since because they wasn't getting paid by the hour. So now I have to rebuy paint, as well as a new fan and maybe a new indoor AC unit because they take time to protect from the pain and dust. I have an over abundance of supplies from their order that even the other carpenters cant figure out what he needed it for. He was trying to do two jobs at once and was unable to finish neither job for me or the other guy. So now I have to pay extra to fix what they did and didn't do. This was a complete waste of my time and money.
