The only reason this review has one (1) star is because I could not provide additional details without selecting at least one (1) start. This "contractor" receives ZERO (0) starts for professionalism, performance, knowledge of industry standards and skill level.
We contracted with Daniel to build a covered front porch on our home. The total job was quoted at $10,000, and Daniel required a deposit of $4,500 to buy supplies and begin the work. Repeatedly we asked if a permit was needed, and Daniel replied "no." Work began in July 2021, including removal of siding, cutting existing concrete, and affixing wood "brackets" to the front of our home (brackets that we were later told were unnecessary and the incorrect way to complete the job). However, days and weeks went by without hearing from Daniel again. After several unanswered calls and texts, we had an inspector come by to evaluate the work in progress to determine it's worth so that we can calculate a numeric value to request be refunded to us by Daniel. The inspector said that none of the work was usable, and that a permit is definitely required. After months of Daniel continuing to not respond, we had to pay a large chain to come in to restore the front of our home by installing new siding in the front (the original siding is discontinued), which was more than the initial deposit we made to Daniel.
Recently, a young woman came to our home and identified herself as Daniel's sister and indicated that he does intend to repay us our deposit, but was out of town for a family emergency. She provided her telephone number, but again, after several exchanges with her, she, too, is now unresponsive.
We are seeking to be made whole and have our deposit returned to us. And, yet, still, no response from Daniel.
We would NOT recommend this person to anyone.
