Hired on Thumbtack

Punctual, hard working and stuck to his time line. I wanted him to paint the basement of a property I had just purchased and in the process asked if he could do a few other things that needed to be done and without hesitation his answer was always "I can do that".

Hired on Thumbtack

Original job was to fix a sagging plaster ceiling. Job went well. Old ceiling was completely tore out and a new ceiling was put in. Price was very reasonable. Christopher offered to take over most all other jobs in what boiled down to a kitchen and bathroom remodel. This is what proved to be his downfall. His time estimates were consistently incorrect and ambitious, though he continued to work even though he had another, full-time job. Unfortunately, this meant that I was his part-time job that was keeping him from losing sleep. About 3 months into the job, obvious mistakes started to bubble up that ate into material costs and he was only working for 1-3 hours per day on the weekdays...half days or so on Saturdays. Glass tile in the kitchen was sloppy. Electrical work that once worked, now didn't. I let him go and decided to go it alone. I hired an electrician to fix his electrical work who, by all accounts, was furious at his work. Mentioned that the bathroom fan Christopher installed would "burn the house down any day." I hired a plumber to install the drain/intake for a dishwasher. Turns out that Christopher allowed the drain/intake lines to be installed too high, make me have to tear out the countertop/cabinets and drywall that he installed, so that the new plumber can fix everything. The shower faucet was installed too far into the shower, and the frame for the shower was unstable...which would have eventually cracked the tile/grout had it ever moved after installation. I had to fix that, and it was my first time doing anything like that. There were countless other problems that needed to be fixed. The other kitchen cabinets too low, GFI outlets not actually GFI. Tub not center to shower. It goes on and on...and some of it, I left as-is, since it would be too much of a hassle to change now. I originally wasn't going to post a bad review, since when I let him go, I thought I was just saving myself some time (I could put in more hours than him) and money (it seemed like I could do what he was doing)...but after having to go back and fix just about every thing he's done, I felt it prudent to warn others...and have Christopher reconsider ever taking on a job that's too big and time consuming for him, for the sake of the homeowner.

General Contracting

I hired Christopher's crew to do a job it consisted of putting up 7 new doors in my house ( just doors) and changing out some molding around the door and painting them. he got the money from me and he got my house key last week in February. By March 24th my key was left. Only for me to let him know I was highly unhappy with his work. I had to bring some body else in to look at what he did and all of his work had to be redone new doors had to be bought again. All the moldings had to be redone. Needless to say I ended up paying more money the second time around because of his mistakes. I also decided I would paint my own stuff....my paint job was way better than his. I ask Christopher to please return the money that I had paid. his response was he was no longer in the construction business. I did get my money back after I told him I would see him in court.. I asked why he took a job and he knew nothing about his only response was maybe I was tired. I wasn't going to write a review but I want others to be aware of him!!!!! he has no clue what he's doing and in my opinion I feel like he's a con.
