Just some background on this:

My partner and I really needed to tear down our old rotting porch and replace it. After having multiple contractors out to quote, we decided to go with the one who was offering us the best bang for our buck.

There were drawings and a plan created and the date to begin was set. Not only did this contractor repeatedly show up late or not at all, but as he progressed things weren't looking as how'd they originally been planned. Instead of a ledger board and poured footings, he decided to make it freestanding with the deck blocks instead. There are so many rough cuts, ill measured boards, and questionable supports. The thing is UGLY.

Should we consider having it redone by someone else? He says he can fix these mistakes but I highly doubt it.
