Horrible and could not possibly get any worse. He disappeared from the project and left me holding the bag. The work he did actually perform was so poor the city would not pass my inspection for multiple code violations. Mr. Wilson ran off after collecting 80% of his contract payments, but had only completed 50% of the work. He abruptly cut off communication with me and left me hanging with a 1/2 finished renovation. I have spent thousands of dollars repairing errors in Wilson's workmanship and bringing things up to local codes. I was forced to start over with a new contractor. The additional expense to remedy has sent us way over budget and has added 6 months to the time. Wilson also neglected to pay his sub contractors after I paid him for his work in full. This has led to liens on my property and a legal nightmare that is not over yet. Just today I failed another city inspection because Wilson did not perform basic work up to code. My project was a entire home renovation that I selected Wilson Builders/Remodeling to General Contract after getting several other bids. Gary Wilson was the cheapest bid of the 5 I received by a long shot. In the end you get what you pay for. It would have been much less expensive to have gone with a more expensive bid from a reputable contractor who would have actually finished the project. This guy is an opportunist and if he see an opportunity to get some money out of you he will jump on it. Do yourself a favor and pay up for a quality contractor. I thought I did my homework on this guy and he came as a referral. There was no Angie's list review for him, but Gary came from a solid referral source so I let it go. Big mistake. My only hope is that this review saves some other Ohio resident from becoming a victim of this contractor.
Description of Work: Stay away! He is a NIGHTMARE!
