I called them two more times after this to remind them to send me the estimate, still nothing. I decided to use a different company since if this was any indication of how they work.

I have definitely been through my share of con artist contractors and I thought that when I found…read moreAli and Oaktree Developers, that the streak was over but it turns out that I was wrong and that could have ended in tragedy with the shoddy work that he and his so called team did. He executed the design that I had so the tradesmen that did the tiling and the company that installed the counter top knew what they were doing. The area where he actually should have hired a licensed professional for was the plumbing. If a home owner is willing to pay over 30 thousand dollars to get work done in their home, they expect it to actually work. I hired Oaktree Developers, fronted by Ali Akhtar to install a laundry in my basement and when it was done it was beautiful. The problems started three months after the work was completed, late too. Every time we ran the laundry, the water would overflow. I called him and he came and added an overflow valve and that seemingly stopped the problem. A month later, we started having issues with the Dryer vent and it not being secure, again he sent someone out and they "fixed it."unbeknownst to us all of these were precursors of much worse to come. The issue started when the shower they installed kept clogging. I called a plumber and they snaked it and said that the problem would keep happening because the pipe was pitched. Since Ali was supposed to have delivered a drain cover for the shower, literally it was six months and he never came with it. I called and told him of the issue and he said that he would come take a look and get it fixed. When he did, he said that it was a simple fix of adding an overflow valve there as well, even though my research into the issue did not say that was the solution. Since I didn't know for sure, I asked a friend of mine who is a licensed plumber to come when he and his so called go to plumber was coming to see what the issue was and how to fix it. Before the scheduled meeting, things went from a slow drain to a nightmare. Every time one of the floors above the basement used the kitchen, shower or bathroom, the basement flooded and all the water was coming out of the vent for the dryer. When I figured that out, I turned off the gas and unplugged everything. I kept updating him, and when sewage was now coming out of what was supposed to be a vent, I knew they had messed up my house. When the meeting happened, his plumber spoke first and after seeing the pictures that I had thankfully taken when the plumbing work was visible, that all of a sudden he couldn't find, he remarked that the work was a mess. The washing machines were tied to waste lines instead of having their own, the dryer wasn't vented at all, which I later found out from another plumber could have killed us due to Carbon Monoxide poisoning, the line for the shower was not tied to the right pipes and essentially nothing was done properly. When homeowners hire someone to do a job, they put their trust in the person and people out there like Ali are literally endangering people's lives just so they can make a quick buck. People are giving you their hard earned money and you're happy to spend it, but don't give a crap what happens to them. Ali had said during the meeting where his plumber and mine agreed that the work had to be redone properly, that he would take care of it all because all he wanted was for this to get resolved, because he didn't want us to go through what we were going through for a month. He called me the next day to say that he wanted to come by with someone else, I didn't see the need, but agreed. Later that night he changed his mind, and said that his plumber would be coming the next day, but that I had to send him a certain amount for work that would be done on the main line. I called my plumber who did the stack and he agreed to do the job that involved what he did because they thought it was a step 1. When that was completed, I called, left a voicemail and texted Ali that it was done and to let me know when his plumber was going to be coming and although he had said he'd provide me with the plumber's info, I received nothing. The meeting took place on the 5th, My plumber did his part the next day and so was Ali's plumber supposed to, but after telling him that it was ready and he said he'd send the guy all my calls, texts, emails have gone unanswered. I had to get a plumber to fix the rest of the mess he and his people made of my house as well as find another contractor to repair the damage. Mr. Akhtar, you keep changing faces to deceive and defraud people and that may all seem good since you keep getting away with it, but please know that one day, you will reap all the crap karma you're amassing. I hope you enjoyed the money you've stolen under the guise of being a legitimate contractor and wish onto you all the misery that you've brought onto others. If you value the safety of your family, DO NOT under any circumstances hire this man regardless of bus name

These guys are professionals and they are honest and reliable. Seems like a low bar, but the truth is I've been unfortunate enough to have experienced a nightmare renovation with a terrible contractor so I was putting this renovation off until i had no choice but to move forward with it. I simply didn't want to have the same experience I had before. I found them through Angie's list and they were very prompt with setting up a meeting to get a quote, they were on time, they were open and honest about the job, and probably most importantly, I got a good vibe from Vigan, the owner. After having considered other quotes, I knew Batusha was the way to go. I messaged him and off we went. He sent me a digital image of what the deck job would look like when finished, he sent me his plans to stop the flooding in my basement with the sump pumps, and I approved it, and the work started. The work was done in a timely manner, he was always in constant communication, and he delivered exactly what was promised. The quality of the work is excellent and there were no corners cut. The pricing was absolutely fair, and I will 100% use him again for my future renovations. Once you find a contractor you can trust, that becomes your guy. Vigan is my guy going forward.
