In Need of Good Tampa Florida Contractor

[Jon Krachenfels]

I am an investor in the Cinci and Detroit markets and am breaking into the Tampa area with my first rehab and flip and I am having quite a bit of trouble finding a reliable contractor.  

I flew down for a visit and had 6 appointments scheduled with 6 different contractors.  3 were referrals and 3 were found off of craigslist.  I had mix results...3 showed up and 3 no-show'ed.  

But, after flying out I was told by all three that I would have a quote by the weekend and that was last week.  Not one of them has called back or contacted me at all.  I have left 2 vm's for each of them and got a hold of 1 briefly who said he was on a jobsite and just hadn't gotten back to me yet.

That being said I understand the weather has been poor, to say the least, and we are backed up here in Ohio as well because of the rains but I am blown away by my results.

The rehab is a 1712 sq ft duplex.  It is a small project that should take approximately 1 week for a skilled tradesman, including paint (2 colors walls/trim), 800 sq ft of ceramic, install upper and lower cabinets (total of 12), lite demo,  set 2 toilets, minor electric and finally cutting a pass through door between the two units.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Alright, job completed.  I went through an innumerable amount of contractors, Sub-contractors, Handymen, etc, etc, etc and finally chose the right guy who is probably best defined as a Sub-Contractor BUT I am so thankful that I found him and at the end of the day he did a GREAT job!

That being said if anyone has any projects in the Tampa/St Pete area I would be more than willing than sharing the love.

Call or Text and I can share his contact info.

Best Regards,
