We contracted with Jeff Kelly to build out our attic and convert to a bedroom. He got 90% complete with the project and walked off the job because he got angry with me for "managing" the project. He estimated he project would take 5-8 weeks. From the day I cut a 50% check (prior to job start) we were in the 3rd month when he walked out. I had to hire another contractor to complete the project so I could get final building inspection.
Unprofessional communication (he would actually swear at me in text messaging). Poor craftsmanship (doors are askew, paint is spotty, nail holes showing, etc.) and poor Sub-contractor management on Jeff's part. He told me his Sub-contractors "were working on larger projects", which is no way to run a business or treat your customers.
He also didn't pay two of his Sub-contractors and left me to pay those invoices of over $5,000 to keep my house from having a lien plus the ~$1,200 I had to pay the second contractor. This was far more than the balance I owed him of ~$1,700.
It was an awful experience and I blame myself as I should have done far more due diligence before hiring Jeff.
I hope others will take this review to heart as I would not wish the experience I had on anyone. read more
