Contractor Problems!

Sameer M.
  • New York City, NY
Posted

Hello Folks,

Understand this is probably a repeat story. I hired a contractor through biggerpockets introduction. He "was" (per the public records I found out) a licensed builder in MI and I hired him to do 2 jobs (Garage roof and electrical re-do) in my house in OH (Cleveland). He approached me and told me he does a lot of work in Cleveland. 

He does business as a LLC and both the contracts are through the LLC.

He has stopped responding to my messages and calls and owes me 1K for the deposit on the roof job that he never started and roughly about 1K for the electrical job leftover that I have hire a new contractor to finish.

At this point, I am planning to pursue formal collections options.

Any feedback / suggestions are appreciated.

I am not naming the guy here as he is a BiggerPockets member.
