If I could give zero stars I would. Steven is the most unprofessional, unreliable and untrustworthy person i have ever dealt with. He was never on time, always had an excuse and could not be relied on from day ro day. Excuses were plentiful ranging from ran out of gas and needs $20 to show up, radiator cap fell off truck to drinking too much the night before...the list goes on.
I paid him $6k up front to buy materials and start job, he blatantly lied about ordering materials and i had to order myself. Learn from my mistake, purchase your own materials and pay him daily for the work agreed on. They took long lunch breaks and in five days that he did show up did about 20 hours worth of crappy work.
You'd be better off paying a little more for a qualified and licensed contractor, it will save you money and alot of frustration in the long run.
I wouldn't recommend Carpenter construction LLC to empty my trash can. When Steven messes up he avoids and dodges all attempts to contact him, again with excuses. I have had to resort to civil action to recover money owed to me and to rework his poor work. I am out more than I paid him to this point. But lesson learned. I could go on and on about why you shouldn't hire him but you should get the gist of it.
Feel free to contact me with questions, I have photos of his sub standard work I'd be glad to share.
