Work Description: Drywall Repair/Patching

Comments: Jose Cruz is the worst handyman I have ever dealt with. He promised to complete the job within 2 but will return if needs be on the third day. He promised to work 9-5 the two days with one hour lunch. The first day he brought another worker who due the drywall repairs. Then Jose left for almost three to buy materials then told me he went to look at another job. He also told me the first day he should have collected a deposit from me. I told him I would give him early the second of which I did. The second he said he had to get more materials and so that’s why he was late. So he cane at 10:30 and left again to buy materials at one o’clock and never return until 3 o’clock. He then said he had to leave at 4 o’clock because it is his daughter’s birthday. So nothing was done the second day.

Friday, he returned for the last day and demanded I pay him before he completes the job. I told him I will let him once the job is competed and that I am afraid once I cashapp him the balance I will have no leverage and that his work was unprofessional. For example he varnish my dinning table and I now am looking for someone to redo it because the varnish is uneven. He had to tint a glass and the tin was full of bubbles and now is an eyesore in my TV room.

My white carpet is so dirty from him walking on it with his work boots. The dry walls was all over the furniture and floors because they did not cover anything. My drive way is stained with the drywall material. Both my garbage bins as well and the due nit depose the their garbages properly so my garbage binds are drywalled as well.

Jose is definitely a scam. He eased dropped in my conversations when I was in my office working. I was getting so scared that I had to take a Pics of him and his license plate and forward to different people because I was afraid and just wanted him to out my house.

Ultimately nothing was done apart from his worker who did the dry. I wanted me to take him out for a steak dinner. The first day he talked about his personal stories to play on my emotions. His two year old son was killed by a truck and his five year old daughter molested by his ex’s girl friend daughter, he only dates white women, etcetera.

He wore a sleeveless shirt the first day that’s says “Christian Brothers” and the other two days he wore regular tee shirts. This makes me feel he was trying to portrait himself as a good person to disguise who he really is.....a con-artist who scams people and does not know how to do anything because when I told him how disappointed I was with his work he told me he really does not do little jobs like this he mainly works as a commercial contractor. Initially he told he my job is easy. He also to me he has $7000 job he picked and he has eight employees. So why is he doing my little job and struggling. My house is now left in a mess.

Most importantly, he told me that he bought materials which cost approximately $89. I told him give me the receipt before I pay. He told left it at home so that he could see his monthly expenses. After he left I found the receipt so this guy is a liar and a scam. He has replaced a storage door knob which after he left I saw that he removed the door knob and did not even have the decency to put back the old knob so now my storage room is left open.

If I were a man he would never bully them for payment before he completed the job. He said he wanted payment before he continues because the last job he did 50% of the work and then the guy asked him to leave. Clearly he has a pattern of doing poor work.

This guy needs to find another job because he is dangerous.

I am in the process of finding another painter but is so scare because of my experience with Jose. He is dirty.
