Quite frankly, I tried to save money by piecemealing things, prior to hiring them. In the long run, I had people steal from me, walk out on the job, and even be abusive and cause mental stress. ENTER...802 Builders! They are amazing, and true professionals. They roll in with every piece of equipment you could imagine, arrive on time, are kind and communicative, and after six months of waiting on others -- they are banging out a beautiful job, just in the first day they're here. I'm giddy with excitement as my punch list gets smaller and smaller and it's all taking shape. I feel so blessed to have found them and, though you have to be patient to wait your turn, they are fast, efficient, friendly and it was well worth the wait. I highly endorse them, and will have them do a rough bid on some other projects, since they have such advanced skills, save up the funds, and keep bringing them back. I won't go elsewhere, as they are truly the best.

Did minimal work and or expense to the point that his own foreman condemned his work and said it had to be redone. The owner actually supervised the pouring of pylons that he had placed without measuring or squaring and were poured completely uneven, two out of six were outside the building perimeter or unusable. After trying to say he could make them work, his own foreman had them fixed which included replacing two and rebuilding the other four. Realizing the sub standard work quality and ethics of this contractor, I requested a refund of monies paid in advance for work he had not completed after he tried to backfill the addition without a compactor on a ten yard load of fill. In my opinion, this contractor is just out to scam whatever he can out of a job without any ethics or conscience!

Austin came over soon after we made our request, gave us a fair quote, and began the first part of the repair soon after. The project was in two parts because part of the damage was under solar panels. So we paid for what he did, and stayed in touch as the installers weren't able to get to us for weeks. Final roofing work happened yesterday, and he also replaced two shingles that had fallen since he'd left (not his fault). Easy to communicate with, generally responded same day or next day. Would use again.

Update: continuing to realize just how badly I got scammed. Basically I fell down the stairs and I…read morewanted them to be safer by increasing the depth (if you are looking at the stairs it's the front to back distance of each step). All he did was use larger treads with more overhang. The *effective* depth (surface area you have to work with when walking down the stairs) didn't actually change. What I wanted would mean dismantling the entire internal frame for the staircase. He should have been clear that without changing the internal structure it wouldn't accomplish what I want. I guarantee his response is going to be something like "you knew what the job was" etc and make this my fault. People outside the industry don't know what these projects entail that's why we rely on builders! That's why I trusted him! A business owner with integrity would say okay how can we make this right but this is the type of person who thinks everything is someone else's fault. In his mind because the way I confronted him was "rude" and the fact that I didn't see all the problems initially absolves him of any responsibility for the way he left my house. Please please please do not trust him. ________end of update The project was new stairs. We agreed to $4500. Okay, great. Later I offered to buy the materials ahead of time (to get a military discount at HD) then he didn't take that off the total price which I didn't realize until like 3 weeks later. I texted him and he said because I asked him to put a new piece of ceiling trim up (he took it down to look behind it and in the process it was like basically destroyed so yeah obviously). I said there's no way that cost over $600. He responded I never said it was. So I don't understand his reasoning. Half his texts don't even make sense. Anyway I moved on to my complaints about the quality of the end result. I told him I'm mad *now* because I didn't think the final product was that bad until later when I realized just how many problems he left for me to fix. The way he responded to my concerns with the quality of his work was so immature and unprofessional. Basically he tried to gaslight me into thinking his sloppy end result is somehow my fault. Example 1: The wood putty he used around the aforementioned trim is haphazardly caked on and around. It looks like he did it half asleep. He said what did I expect when I asked for new trim at 3pm. Ok? So being tired justifies an ugly end result? Ridiculous. Example 2: The wall paneling around the stairs got damaged in the course of the job. He thinks it's my fault for asking him to replace the white trim on the side of the stairs (I didn't). But that doesn't make sense because there was damage to the bottoms of the wall panels around ALL of the stairs. Either scratches, chunks missing, or wood stain on the walls. He said to just paint over the scratches and missing chunks. I understand that there's going to be damage when you are replacing a whole stairwell but it's expected you patch any damage you do to surrounding structures during the job. He disagrees. In fact when I said that he lashed out at me saying I should have said something at the time and I'm "rude as f*ck." Screenshots of the conversation are posted.
