SIGMA GENERAL CONTRACTING

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY... EVER! 1. After allegedly reviewing the property in person, Mr Elliot Tatum "never realized" that trees would be on the way and we ended up eating that cost. 2. The fence 'installer" he got to also remove trees was so incompetent that for safety concerns I had to stop him, but still got stuck w $1.2K bill without he removing removing the stumps as obviously necessary. 3. Then he changed installers, various times without even notifying us more then once. 4. He kept on moving the date(s) without ever notifying us before we got aggravated and had to send several unanswered texts/emails. Even after we gave him very strong notes that we wanted it ASAP. 5. Wrong materials were delivered and very poor timing. 6. Took an excessively long time to change the wrong materials, and then it was still completely incomplete under the sad excuse that HomeDepot didn't have enough; but I coincidentally went to HomeDepot and saw plenty. 7. A month passed the original delivery date, I send an ultimatum of 1week to be done or he should refund us before that if he didn't belive he could. our agent (who provides most of his jobs) pressed him hard to reply. 8. He failed on that too, and we were forced to threaten many consequences,including legal action and going to the police to report fraud. 9. that got a courteous and apologetic answer and promise of a quick refund on the next day(Thursday), which never happened. 10. After several emails copying all his usual references and threatening once again, he took a long time to answer giving more excuses and claiming he had to attend a funeral over the Thursday-Friday period and would give us a refund on Saturday. 11. Eventually he delivered a refund on Monday. The cashier check had someone else's name as the issuer... In short he is not competent enough to be a contractor even for a fence, much less anything else! He cn't understand the need to keep the customer informed before the customer becomes upset and/or suspicious, or the concept of prioritizing things once something already went really wrong. What makes it worse is that we fully explained that we need it for our autistic child to have appropriate outside therapeutic time, among many other issues. We explained that if he could do it fast we would be okay with it and would go with someone else at any time during the process without taking it against him as long as he was honest. But now we are without a fence and our it has been extremely stressful to not be able to have our child enjoy our backyard while weather permits; plus our dog has gone nuts stuck inside w only a few outings per day (eating our furniture out of stress).
