DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL NO MATTER HOW LOW HIS BID IS.
We had just bought a new home this year and had a limited budget for renovations. The driveway needed to be resealed and we saw that 3/4 of our neighbors were doing it at the same time with the same company (not Harry), but Harry underbid them. Due to our budget, we went with him. On the day of the project, we informed him it was going to rain later that night, but he said that didn't matter and went ahead. Within 2 days, patches of the old driveway were showing, cracks were unsealed, and it looked like someone had set off brown paint bombs all over the driveway. It looked TERRIBLE. During numerous follow-ups on my end, Harry told us multiple times that he was going to "make it right", but after several missed/rescheduled appointments, no-call no-shows, unreturned calls, etc... over the course of a few months, it was finally too cold out to do get it done this year and he said he'd give us a gift certificate to get it done in the spring "when he had time"....BUT HE'D HAVE TO CALL HIS MOM TO ASK HER WHICH ONE OF THE CABINETS THE CERTIFICATES WERE IN. He also unintentionally informed me that a large part of the delay was due to the fact that he was taking care of new business... before taking care of the guy (me) that had already paid him - HENCE THE REASON THAT HARRY ONLY TAKES CHECKS OR CASH!!! Once he has your money, that's all he cares about; I have to assume he takes *zero* pride in his work. I have yet to receive the telephone call that I was promised regarding when to expect the gift certificate....and of course, I have yet to receive the gift certificate.
Harry was very friendly the entire time and now I see why...a classic wolf in sheep's clothing. I would not accept a LIFETIME of free reseals from him at this point because his work is terrible and his work ethic is even worse. Way to go Harry, you took advantage of new homeowners who trusted you and gave you hundreds of dollars of their limited budget. Based on other reviews, sadly, I'll bet you're proud of that. read more
