Chimene & Charlie Puska of Coastal Cottage Concierge are not reputable people. They cheated me…read more Stay away! I hired Chimene & Charlie Puska of Coastal Cottage Concierge in April 2019 to perform shrub trimming and related landscape maintenance at my home in Rosemary Beach, FL. After showing them the scope of the work to be done, I agreed to their request for a 50% premium in monthly service cost over my prior vendor in order to get a premium service. I paid each monthly invoice promptly through July of 2019 including paying an extra $30 for pine straw. My property manager advised me a week before my arrival on August 1, 2019 that the landscape work of Coastal Cottage Concierge had many deficiencies. I tried to contact Chimene and Charlie to remedy the deficiencies before my arrival. They informed me by email that they were leaving town and were suspending all services to me. I repeatedly tried to reach them by phone, text message, and email to no avail. Upon arrival at my home on August 1st, I found that while some of the shrubs had indeed been trimmed, the majority of the landscaping had not been touched. Weeds were growing throughout the pine straw that simply needed to be pulled. No fresh pine straw was applied despite the fact that I had paid for it. The rear courtyard was severely overgrown and in need of a hard trim. Finally, my irrigation system had two significant leaks which not only caused water geysers, but also prevented water from flowing to the plants that needed watering. This resulted in drought related stress to some of my plants and bushes. So not only did they not provide the premium service that we had agreed on, but they didn't provide the pine straw application that I paid for, and they left me in lurch, forcing me to find a replacement landscape service provider on short notice. I have tried repeatedly to reach them by phone, text message, and email. They owe me a refund and an apology. Stay away from these dishonest and disreputable people. They are not to be trusted. Consumer's Desired Resolution: Chimene and Charlie Puska, through their company Coastal Cottage Concierge, should refund the $30 that I paid for pine straw that was never installed and $200 for not providing the premium service that they had agreed to over the 4 months that I was paying them and then leaving me in a lurch.

The price was more then fair, I understand how much labor goes into work like this. I will definitely be calling them back for more work. Thank you ortiz remodeling! Edit* I am definitely not the ortiz daughter lol. I am 42 years old. I wish I was because then maybe I could learn how to do all this work myself! Lol look Debby I don't know you but you really seem to say alot of negative things about them to get attention or idk maybe trying to get free work. I'm not here to argue with a childish elderly lady. ..but hopefully you realize you are in the wrong. The ortiz's are very sweet people abs they have A TON of people to back their work. You are the only one I have seen say anything negative about them. I really feel for you and I hope you are not the type of lady I am thinking you are...I also hope no one else believes your trash talk. Get a life.

Oversprayed paint on our concrete, brick, roof, roof shingles, and solar panels. Our new gate…read morewon't close after one week, fence is completely coming apart after one week, no show April 24, 2025 to come fix fence, gate, and clean up overspray on concrete, brick, and white dog door in back. Altered invoices AFTER paid in full to include $150 to remove one screw and a corner board from carport while having the ladder nearby, would have gladly paid $25 or $50 but not $150 but Leslie did this. Added another line item of paint $220. They still owe us $1150 for the overpayment which we thought was for fencing but was for the discount they gave us due to the job being around $12,000. Even though they advertise on Yelp, Nextdoor, and HOUZZ and other apps that they are a General Contractor, they are not and in Okaloosa County and the state of Florida they are NOT licensed to do siding and failed to put flashing on our new siding so insurance will not take off the "red flag" until it is done correctly. Exterior doors, structural repairs, roofing, new electrical, is not allowed in Okaloosa County. They are a nice couple at first, they want the job and the money but if you tell them something is potentially wrong or even ask questions about your project, they go into defense mode despite the evidence. We even asked Leslie if a permit was required for the fence she said no and that is correct, but a permit is required for the siding they put in and they did not pull the permit. Mr Ortiz cut a pipe in the back by the back master bedroom and bathroom and it flooded the next day for nearly one full week. We did not blame them only asked if they knew where the water might be coming from inside since the pipe in the middle of the house was disturbed. The overspray on our roof shingles and solars panels is something TIMMERMAN ROOFING, who came out to inspect, has never seen in their many years of business. A total disregard for protecting our roof and we had no idea until our neighbors brought it to our attention. Leslie refused us 3x to come clean up the overspray; they charged us for pressure washing $200 and as you can see in the photos they never did the tops of them, they are still filthy but the guys who did it before just used a ladder but Leslie charged us anyway. And they DO NOT GUARANTEE THEIR WORK/labor AS ADVERTISED and are NOT GENERAL CONTRACTORS as shown in their company photos and titled Advertisements. We do not recommend using them at all.

We hired him after his friend and own real estate agent became our real estate agent. She praised him to the highest degree and repeatedly mentioned how trustworthy he was. We never asked - nor ever had- an unlicensed person to work on any of our homes. We ALWAYS ask for the BEST, not the worst or the cheapest! This area was unfamiliar to us as far as purchasing and residing in Florida. Due to Badillo's incompetence, theft of most of our personal belongings, and damage to our home, and removal of support beams, our home is now in the first stages of collapsing, and is deemed uninhabitable. You will save thousands of dollars. Our engineer analysis and future work to repair Badillo's will most probably reach over $100,000.00 on top of the high amounts we have already paid to repair the home and replace the stolen items. It is exhausting and alarming. In the future, you will have to disclose things that are material facts that buyers should know on a disclosure. Why risk it with remodeling with an unlicensed person? Save yourself the grief. Walk gently in relying on his past clients who may not even have permits on their homes. Many of them that I checked with the permit office do not. DBPR investigated Badillo then the States Attorney arrested him and deemed him guilty of operating without a license. Told to cease. Yet, folks still promote him for extensive remodels. Avoid Badillo's friend who is also unlicensed- Luis Alejandro Morales Alvarez/Zeus Electric Destin. The Zeus owner- Julia Torres phoned us demanding another $25,000.00 and threatening legal action against us for electrical work done in our home. (We paid Badillo a separate check for $30,000.00). In informing her that many of our belongings were stolen and did not know Torres, she remarked: "Ray is our friend and he would have paid us and by the way... I saw your belongings and ...I would never take them. I have better taste than you!" Repeated on texts. Cute group to have in your home. Ray then began to defame us by telling the sales people at the local paint store we made all this up to avoid paying our balance. Absurd. Badillo and his posse picked on the wrong people. He should have researched things about high government clearance checks and those that receive that- the highest level. Husband's credibility speaks volumes. Badillo's does not. Run.
