A CUT ABOVE

Do not and I repeat, DO NOT, let this man near anything in yoir home. I was dumb enough to listen to the talk ans hired him and paid him half upfront. He was supposed to hang 5 lights, 2 were replacements, 3 installs and change out the plugs and outlets in my home. Was over 5 hours late with lots of excuses, left for hours upon hours the first day after I paid him half down, and these are the results I now have and am paying an electrician to come out and fix. The one light he tried to install is hanging by the wires, (none of the others were even attempted) I have a light that was working fine before he changed the switch that now will not shut off, A brand new ceiling fan that he installed and was working fine before he chamged the switch is now not working, the 2 plugs he changed in my daughters bathroom are now not working at all and were both working before he touched them and the biggest thing... I told him I needed my thermostat changed out and had the new one. The old one worked but you could not adjust the temperature and I had an air conditioning company out 3 weeks ago to check my unit inside and out before we moved in qnd everything was ok besides him telling me I needed a ptrap insalled and I called a plumber out the next day to do this. This man changed the thermostat and it was not working at all. Second day he came back, he tried to fix it but kept blowing a fuse in the upstairs unit and couldn’t figure out what was going on. After putting in a new fuse and being in the attic for over 30 minutes, he told me that he thought “he shorted out one of the lines, but my transformer for my air was corroded and needed to be changed and he thought that was the real problem.” He put my old thermostat back on and it literally would not work at all and I informed him I just had an air cimpany out ans everythingg was fine before he worked on it and didn’t he find it pretty coincidental that this old transformer would just happen to “go out” at the same time he was blowing fuses? He proceeded to say myself and my husband were lying, the thermostat was not working and I never had an air company out. I told him and his “buddies” to pack their stuff and go and called an AC company out. This man actually had the nerve to start cussing at me with his friends telling him I owed him MORE money. It took a threat of calling the police out to get them to leave. When the air company showed up, they walked in an immediately said the fuse was blowing because he had the thermostat wired up completely wrong. They went up and looked at the transformer and they said it was shorted out and look like someone had tried fixing it and put a screwdriver in it and shorted it out. That cost me $250 for them to fix. This is a sum up of what happened, there are many more details that you would be horrified by if I had the time to tell you, but DO NOT hire this an for anything. I have now been informed by the licensed electrician I have had to hire to fix all of his mistakes that it is illegal in the state of TX to work on any electric without a license.

Didn?t show up on the day of the job and I had to go out of my way to retrieve building supplies. Poor communication.
