James Clifton General Contractor

Mr Dean Sommerhauser, I apologize for you feeling it necessary to write an emotional review of myself company posted on yelp, homeadvisor, BBB and I am sure many others. First of all, your time frame was never two weeks. I informed you that the material ordered from Connecticut had an approximate two week delivery time alone. The time frame for your job was delayed dramatically when you changed the scope of work in mid job after we had already installed 800 sq ft of acoustical ceiling. The job was changed by not mounting Everlast Walls by direct contact method as agreed but instead we were told to bring walls out 3 inches from wall to have recessed electrical behind the panels. This one change caused my company considerable time and effort to make the wall panels straight and plum as possible on an out of plum 9 feet tall concrete poured retaining wall. The personal attack on my crewman Darryl is also disturbing. Darryl clogged your toilet when the house was vacant and semi lived in and he also informed you about the clog. You waived him off saying you would fix it yourself at the end of day. The next issue you had with Darryl, was that your daughter overheard half his conversation complaining on his lunch break and reported it to you. We met together quickly, all three of us and Darryl apologized to you face to face in my presence. After this incident, I noticed multiple cabinet estimators giving you carpentry estimates for shelves and finish work. To say in your review that “you paid us to leave” is extremely inaccurate considering there was no more contract work to be done. The work you are referring to is Time and Material Custom Work in which you had received multiple bids for. The screen damage was unfortunate but was repaired by a license vendor who had a very busy summer schedule and got it back to us in two weeks. Considering there was an approximate 300 man hours on the job site one screen damage was not too bad…
