All business was conducted by phone. I asked for a driveway to be installed exactly like the house next door. He sent me a picture of my daughters house and said "is this it?" and I said yes, and sent me a picture of the neighbors house and said "And you want it exactly like this?" and I said yes. I have the text conversations saved. He measure incorrectly, and the installers were putting it in without a large section parking pad (like next door) Then he said he would do the remainder at an additional cost. At this point (when a contractor raises the price after they start the job) i usually tell them to do it at the price they gave me or go home, and I would get the NEXT guy, who gave me an accurate price. But I agreed to a bit more at an additional cost of $500. He previously said that he takes credit cards, and I offered to pay it in advance. Then he said he didn't want a CC because they charge 3%, and I offered to pay the additional 3% myself. So, they did the job, and it looks very good, but then he demanded payment by CASH, of the remaining half (my daughter had paid the other half) with only 12 hours notice. I got $2500 cash, but the next day (a Sunday) he demanded I meet him again for the remainder. I explained it was impossible to get another 1000 in cash on a Sunday, because the banks are closed. I offered again to pay the balance by CC and he refused. Then a few hours later I saw that he sent a text saying "OK I'll take the CC" (I had already gone to sleep for the night). The next day he said I should meet him and give him the remaining CASH- I work during the daytime and could not just leave- so I told him to make up his mind, take the credit card or it would have to be the next day- he finally accepted the CC. Then he showed up to 'seal' the driveway without notice, and left because the dog had left muddy footprints. So my daughter cleaned them and waited. He left a message that he had come AGAIN and had to leave. Finally I said that he showed up twice without notice, and we only knew they were coming again because we left a message that the driveway was clean and waiting... He then said his workers were there now, and he could tell them to leave. At this point I had to threaten him with small claims court with the text messages as evidences of his attitude, and he should just finish the job and conclude our business. I also told him not to bother to come give me an estimate for my driveway, and he texted back "why would I want to do business with you when I had to hound you for payment?" I explained that I had offered to pay him several times, including IN ADVANCE, even after he raised his price from the original quote. In short, the work seems to be good- I don't have any complaint abut the driveway- but his attitude leaves very very much to be desired.
