He gave us a time line of 6 months on our addition project and after 15 months it is still not done. He hires sloppy and unprofessional subcontractors. The excavator he hired caused our existing foundation to collapse. The plumber he hired left the main drain pipe to the sewer unconnected which caused water to poor out the walls of our cellar the first time we ran the washing machine. We had to replace the skylights he installed because they leaked like a sieve. He was not here to supervise the project regularly and the subs were slobs who just left a trial of construction debris everywhere. Of course they had no where to put it because Al refused to get a dumpster here until the garbage was piled 10 fee high. After 12 months with the project still far from done, Al told us he was going to Italy for three weeks. It was at the point we had to take over the project ourselves. It cost us thousands of dollars more to complete the project than the balance that was left on our contract with Al and now we have liens filed against us for subcontractors and suppliers he did not pay, even though we had paid him months ago for those services. I could say much more about this terrible experience, but my recommendation for anyone is not to use the services of this person.
Cons: 15 months and counting on a 6 month project
