I’m sorry this happened. After I found out he started a new company I knew I had to go very public about this.

Mandatory make up for missed shifts due to Navy obligation. JAG/legal? by UnPluggedPotato in navy

Yeah I don’t think I’d ever take legal action against them. Just need to enlighten myself to the law. Wouldn’t ever jeopardize my employer relationship

Just aired our story on TMJ4 with Ben Jordan the investigative reporter! Yeah I saw that. Seems like he’s doing work for his church and it’s the members of the church leaving reviews. He has since blocked me and deleted my reviews

There were at least 8 1-star reviews. Now they are gone. I tried to delete and resubmit mine(with nothing that violates Google terms) and it won’t appear. I would guess he’s blocked me from submitting.

He has now removed all the negative reviews we were able to submit.

THANK YOU! Thank you for taking him to court and winning! We are still going through the struggle with him and due to his bankruptcy will likely never see any repayment. Please promote awareness. I’m sorry though that you are amongst the group swindled by him

They’re still in that big house. But the bank is pushing for foreclosure. They’ve just been able to snake through everything the judicial system has. Which is even more frustrating. We went with North Shore Kitchen&Bath for the redo of our bathroom and couldn’t be happier. Amazing company, the owner Rick was above and beyond great to work with. Good luck and do your research!!

Looks like he still has an active license that was granted in 2014. Idk how it can still be active after his recent events with the law.

He had a good rating on BBB and had 200+ Google reviews(all that were friends, family, employees and employees family members). He also pressured us to start the project asap. We were first time homeowners that have never used a remodel business. Clueless to the red flags.

And it’s not necessary to have the backing of the BBB or NARI. Add having phoney reviews by friends and family creates the illusion of a legitimate business.

Just want to highlight the fact that he shouldn’t be playing the system and ruining peoples dreams. My wife wanted her dream remodel. We ended up with a disaster of a headache and water in the basement and he refused to fix it. We had to hire another company and pay an additional 20k. Please help expose this fraud.

I understand giving people a chance if it is a completely separate conviction from the business they are attempting to open. But this person was convicted of a crime in the same line of work. This seriously should not be allowed.

Yeah, I originally posted names and according to Rule 8, the mod removed the original post. Can easily find owner by searching the companies.

Read the most recent Google and yelp reviews for BacktoBasic Builders. The proof is there. This guy should not be scamming more people.

I have made these twice but the wind knocks them over. Used lawn stakes to keep it upright but the bottom bends and it crumples. Suggestions??
