J&J Residential Reviews

  • Jun 16, 2015

I am filing this report in response to work that was done in my home. I wanted to get my basement remodeled as I am a single mom with four children and have recently had many medical problems that made me want to make my home a comfortable place for both my children and myself. I hired these contractors in hopes that they would make my dream bedroom possible. I was on a very limited budget and had to borrow the money from my stepfather to get the work done. When my contractor showed up his work was extremely sketchy and slow. It seems like every other day there was a need for more money and excuses on why he could not come to work. I even made it easier on him by having all of the materials here for him. And to save money I would have my kids and family try to help carry some of the materials down stairs.

I went in for surgery and the day I came home I could not look at the basement. So I looked the following day and what I saw was horrible. Thinset was just slapped all over the tiles and on the walls is a total mess it brought tears to my eyes. I then asked questions like why not clean as you go? Why do those tile look so crooked? Finally, it got to the point where I asked them not to play anymore tile until the messes cleaned up. This is when my contractor walked off the job to never return. I had already given him all the money I could spare and was heartbroken as I learned that all my materials were not only looking bad but they all needed to be replaced.

The walls are partially painted with the screws popping and cracks all over. According to other contractors not enough screws were used and no tape was used and that is why all my walls are cracking everywhere. Eventually, the walls will shift, which are not even at all. The floors are horrible! Thinset everywhere, unlevel, cracks, scrapes, and not even close to being done. The plumbing was already existing but they buried sink drain with cement and also the toiled drain. My toilet is in my shower. This is an absolute nightmare nothing is done and I have sunk way too much money in this. And now I don't have enough money to finish it....

I have depleted all of my funds and now I am left with my worst nightmare.
