The entire project went very well and was completed on time.
Description of Work: Mr. Hobbs replaced a 30 year old deck and did a great job. His crew was punctual and cleaned up after themselves. We made a few minor changes and he did them very willingly. I will hire Mr. Hobbs again!
It is gorgeous a brand new house. They were professional, cleaned up after themselves, had no concerns about leaving them in our home while we went to work, they were there for a couple of months. They were not the cheapest, but we got what we paid for.
Description of Work: Construct and install, wainscoting in foyer, hallway, dining room, did custom trim work, did a copper ceiling, Put in cabinets, and built a piece in between to make arches. Also, remodeled master bath.

Mr. Hobbs was referred to me through a friend. During my initial meeting with him he asked me what were my expectations on cost of this project. My response was that I would like to build as close to $50.00 a square foot as possible. He responded by saying that he does not quote by the square foot, what was my budget? I have a real problem with a business man who asks me how much money do I want to spend – it is unethical. After my initial consultation with him he referred me to a designer who could design my home. According to Mr. Hobbs, the designer was willing to provide me with electronic files of the drawing vs. the traditional paper copies. I am able to do the printing myself. Once the drawings were complete, the designer charged me an additional $500.00 for the paper copies and said he had no deal going with Mr. Hobbs for the electronic files: he flat out denied any such agreement was ever discussed; however the designer did supply me with the electronic copies after I paid the $500.00. I e-mailed those files to Mr. Hobbs for him to give me a quote on the construction of my house. Since that time, over a month ago, he has repeatedly made excuses as to why he has not been able to provide me with a quote. A month later I am no closer to getting my house built. At this point I am releasing Mr. Hobbs from any expectations I may have had. His lie to me cost me $500.00. I do not want a contractor that lies and procrastinates. I need a house built and I need it now. Mr. Hobbs is unable or unwilling to perform per verbal agreement and seems to have difficulty with being straight with his clients.
Description of Work: Mr. Hobbs was retained to act as General Contractor for the construction of my home in Fayetteville, NC.

Response from Jimmy Hobbs Builders, Inc
I met with Mr. [Member Name Removed] to determine his construction needs. His expectations were unrealistic and I was up front with him about it. I never entered into any type of verbal or written agreement with him nor did I ever perform any work for him. It's unfortunate that he feels the way he does concerning my business professionalism since I never entered into an agreement with it. In completing custom building requests (which is what Mr. [Member Name Removed] was seeking), I have found it to be an inaccurate business practice to price per square footage as this defeats the purpose of customized building.
