Work Description: basement finish
Comments: I clicked one star for just his attempt. American Quality (Steve Musgrave). He is no carpenter and is a total rip-off to his sub contractors. He does not pay them. They cash the checks as a company and leaves the jobs unfinished.I am re-doing a basement he had left in total disarrayed mess.
The walls were crooked and curved for no reason except in lack of knowledge. Out of plumb and not a just a hair on the bubble. (1/2 bubble in 8 feet.
He brought in a plumber before walls framed and all drains (shower, toilet, and vanity all in wrong place. toilet would 16" from wall, the vanity would not have any stem length to code. The drain pipe would have come up in middle cabinet. Also he stiffed the contractor for about 2000$$ plus. Did not pay.
The electrician refused to wire it up on two occasions and the third time he figured he could work with it and left extra wire to allow for some movement if needed. He also stiffed the electrician for 2000$$. Did not pay.
The homeowner has written checks for insulation material of 1500$$ plus. No insulation delivered. Was stiffed for the purchase of this material. He did say it was a code requirement between concrete foundation walls between living units. (townhomes) WRONG the only insulation that is code requirement is concrete to dirt on exterior facing walls. This code requirement is done by the builder. So more lost money he took.
He also failed inspections and called for inspections to get money and no-showed on the date and time inspectors did show up.
He also talked her out of drywall supply payment. Yep stiffed again, not sure on amount total. Guessing on amount based on bout 57 sheets (8 and 12 footers based on room size for use) of excess of 12 to 1500$$. No material and out money.
So if you need someone who is honest, It is not this company. Shy away and no early payments. Do not get permits on your jobs for this company. They cost estimate the same no matter who gets the permits.
There is several issues on this basement finished that I may have missed. Bottom line was instead of trying to repair the mistakes it was a total gut and reframe/plumb and electrical.
Plumbing redo bout 4200$
electrical redo bout 2500-3000$
My time (note I am not a contractor/ friend of the client ripped off). But my estimated time from tear out and reframe is guessed in at material / labor bout 5000$$. Material reimbursed on receipts. Nothing up front. For quality info on pre-frame inspection. It passed 100%. Final frame will be after plumber/mechanical/electrical have passed and all required fire stop finished.
So again use caution on this company. And use caution and check references and BBB for complaints on all company's.
Final note I did recommend these individuals for this job. If knowing so incompetent in construction. It would have never been a referral.

Work Description: Drywall Installation
Comments: Stephen did some drywall work for a remodel I was doing and he did a great job. Most importantly, he was patient and receptive to any additional requests to make changes or address any minor issues. I've got more work to do and I'll definitely work with Stephen and AQP again to get it done.Denver CO

Work Description: Decks/Porches/Ramps - Build
Comments: Steven Musgrave deserves a zero rating. He didn't get a permit for my deck that is 5 feet above the ground. He spaced the joists 21" apart instead of 16" apart. All the posts are not properly secured and are loose and wobbly. The railing is not even in a straight line. He used different sized hangars on the joists which makes the floorboards protrude; they are not even. Everything he did will not meet code requirements. On Friday, May 14th, Steven didn't clean up before leaving. My daughter's friend used my electric saw to cut the 7-step stairway that Steven left lying on my patio. Then they both threw the pieces in the dumpster. Steven Musgrave doesn't care about customer satisfaction and is clearly not an experienced carpenter. Ben Allen called me early last week, May 18?, and I told him about the so called work by Steven. Ben told me he would inform his manager. I called Ben days later and left a voice message. He has not returned my call as of 5-25-21. I also texted Ben today 720-619-2047, but he has not replied. Please call me, Petra Sandoval, at 303-761-7409. Steven cannot keep doing this to other people. I paid him $5,513 and should be reimbursed. Everything Steve did must be removed. I'm not sure if I can reuse some of the wood.Brighton CO
