I hired Dan to do some work in a rental home. painting , tile, drywall , yard work and misc things. He asked for a deposit and money for supplies. I gave him a total of 460.00 the first day . He was going to get started that evening as it had to be completed by the next weekend.
The next wednesday he said he found a door and appliances that I needed and to bring hin 250.00 and he would pick it up and install them. That was done. I lived in a diff city so it was difficult to go see the work that was done . well I would call him and he would say oh it will be done . then he claimed to get sick.
well it was not done in the meantime a car hit the house and took out the main AC unit for the cottage. So a new AC was bougt along with a new toilet and faucet. when we went to check on the work the front door was unlocked and the back door missing. He claimed the house had been broken into 2 days beofre and they stole all his tools and he was not coming back . he said he didnt want to call the police . Well the AC was missing also and he swears he put it in the house ... with no back dorr ??? so when we went to get the money back he says he doesnt have any. Police report is filed and now today I did an arrest search and found that he has been arrested multiple times for grand theft and exploting the elderly. spent a total of 28 years in prison over the last 30 years. Now I did do a check at the beginning but had his name spelled wrong .
My advice is do your background checks before , get it in writing (which I do have rec for it all) and dont belive anyone.
