Greg Hartlen contracting installed my windows many years ago. When he initially installed the…read morewindows, I noticed that there was not waterproof flashing on the bottom and up the sides of the window opening. I mentioned this to Greg and said that I did my research and this was not up to code. We went back-and-forth debating and finally I had to show him a sticker that was left on the window with the installation. Instructions showing that flashing had to be installed. He gave me a backhanded apology. Him come back and take out every window and do it properly. I should've stopped there with allowing the contractors to do work, however being a single parent mother I needed help. He was also a close friend of a family member of mine so I wanted to continue to do work with him. Later on, I had him do the siding on my home. It took years to complete and he still has not finished it today and complained that I owed him $1000. Greg in cash for these jobs and he said it would be better for both of us and wanted to avoid taxation. When Greg did my siding, his workers did not put tuck tape on the exterior install installation seems and they did not put strapping around the entire portion of the house so now my siding dents in and out when you look at it from certain angles. Furthermore, he did not use nails with the starter strips, and my siding is falling off my home. The top piece of the siding fell off many portions of the home, and this was not due to weather. It fell off because it was simply shoved up there. There were no nails to hold it in. He also left a bottom piece of my house exposed and I had water damage into my home. He also left my gutters exposed and did not put the caps back on, and I now have pest problems and birds in my gutters. He said that he would come back to remediate the problem that he had caused and never did this. When I had to bring contractors back to try to finish the job, which is what is being done now, they were appalled with the work. One of my contractor friends had contacted Greg regarding the work he had done and he became very defensive and complained about a measly $1000 when he costed me thousands and will cost me more to fix what he's done. He hung up in my contractor's ear and was very unprofessional. My back porch is still exposed, and he never finished the siding on the back. I feel that he took advantage of me because I'm a woman and he knew that I had financial strain being a single parent mom. I have pictures attached in this review to validate my statements. I would like to proceed legal action against this, however many people have told me this would be very difficult because I had paid a lot of the job in cash. Nonetheless, the job was not done up to code and any job that he did was not done up to code (Windows, and siding both). I would please urge anybody in the future not to utilize Greg Hartlen's contracting service services. When I told Greg that I wanted him to fix what he had done, he became very defensive and I told him that I did not want to take him to court, but was contemplating it. He laughed and said I don't care what you do. I have insurance for that. This man is greedy and he does horrible work for those in less fortunate situations. Please don't trust this man or his company's work. Homeowners beware of this man and his company!

Very friendly and accommodating to get the job done! Yeh Right!!…read moreQuoted a specific job, agreed the job. Prior to commencing work I was advised, as quoted, that it would be at least an hours work. I go for a walk. 20 minutes later as I return the "Boss" just kept driving away, the other labourer stopped. Yes All done. Will pick up ladder later. As I look at "the job", not only did the entire job NOT get done as quoted one of the repair products used on the outside eave of my home I am pretty sure is the exact same item you have as the fan cover in your master bathroom! So after sending texts, writing an email of utter dissatisfaction, not only did they take my money, they never responded to any communication, and left their dilapidated extension ladder for me to drag to the curb....and I'm 5'7" and 125 lbs!!! Yeh beware the friendly accommodating types their work doesn't even hit subpar.

Sent this in earlier however I wrongfully filed with Better Business Bureau first I didn't know you…read morehad to actually be the paying client to be able to do that and then I had to mitigate whether I wanted to violate my medical info but it is important for me to point out how misogynistic and racist this organization was towards me and other females at Quaker Landing on Ochterlonely. I had been coming to this building for many years sometimes twice a month sometimes once a month for Medical Treatments as a person with disabilities and it's always been a pleasant experience because it's a day off and it's all about my self care and a wonderful practitioner until this day. A formal complaint was filed with both the company and with Quaker Landing of which neither one of them responded especially to my request to reimburse me for that treatment since it was all about the manifestations of being verbally attacked and assaulted for entertainment by two male contractors. I had been on the phone with my doctor crossing the crosswalk and had to immediately get off the phone because I was totally unaware, because of the lack of helpful signage, where I'm supposed to go as a regular member of this building because there was no signage telling me where to go to get to the front door -it just said the sidewalk was closed -but most businesses accommodate for the local traffic and clients that are coming into a building. I didn't have time to get my bearings before a very rude and obnoxious male about 30 ft in the air started calling me names repeatedly calling me stupid calling me a fucking bitch to the person he's speaking to who I couldn't see at the time and that person laughing so this has been a normalized occurrence. I was absolutely shocked I realized because my disabilities are invisible he wouldn't know that he offended me as a disabled person. I have a brain injury and his constant yelling at me and disorientated me so I'm still trying to figure out what the hell is going on and he only had to tell me was you have to cross back go around and come through the pedway but he kept arguing with me about the front door of which I told him I always come in the front door.. he wanted to argue about that too saying well if you've been here before then you know where I'm talking about I said well clearly I don't or else I'd be doing it instead of standing here arguing with you. He was obnoxious he was belligerent and misogynistic in his name calling and the fact that he was that comfortable doing it shows that this is a regular default of his. I reported it to my practitioner of which my entire treatment session was about the manifestations of that verbal assault that gender-offending verbal assault while I was trying to get into a medical appointment. I find out from my practitioner that I am one of many females that this business had been verbally inappropriate to and had screamed it and were called names. my entire treatment was distressed and we had to deal with the manifestations of this attacking male. When leaving I made sure to take pictures of the offending party and the other male was there just a young guy, and of course being a social worker was fully aware this is how misogyny gets passed from generation to generation because it's normalized as this clearly was because he would be the male that was laughing every time the other one was calling me a name yelling at me. Then he tried to flip the script.. the guy who was the mouthpiece when he was up on the scaffolding was now on the ground and he said you better not be taking pictures of my son. I said was your son rude to me or were you so clearly I'm taking pictures of you and you can see I was taking pictures of you and not your son..he didn't expect me to come back and take pictures of the company sign because he refused to tell me what company he worked with. The very fact that this company was still allowed to work on this place finding out that he had been rude to several females is shocking ..before I even took the pictures there was a male across the street that asked him how to get over to the building and he used a completely different voice of a different tone so this clearly was gender-offending and when I seen this license plate I seen oh so he thinks some white girl and he can think to talk to me like that too ..so we've got a racist and gender offending dynamic here. The company to date has not responded to the abuse I endured from his staff and I think they should be responsible for reimbursing me the $110 so I can have a proper treatment that they derailed that day Sadly now when I go back there I am not comfortable because they're still there. And I haven't been back for July and August. this is an abusive company who normalizes verbally abusing females while catering to males I'm also a senior which was evident by the grey in my hair
