Boris J. says, "This is an update of a review I wrote for Manuel after he first did some plumbing work for me. That initial small project went well. I made the mistake of hiring him for additional projects. Manuel is a good carpenter but he does not do work himself. HE can not make money doing carpentry and instead does plumbing and electricity, because that is where the money is. The crux of the problem is that he hires unskilled laborers, none of which speak english and uses them to do the work. Manuel does speak English. Some of the people he hires are very good, others are terrible! You never know what you will get and there is constant turnover. This became clear to me too late as we were already deep into several large project. During the pandemic there was no work for handymen and I let myself get talked into major projects. I did this to help him out but regret doing so. Manuel does not complete work. He has to have several jobs at the same time and jumps around, doing work personally for whoever was the last person paying him. He has NO problem leaving loose ends. Payment was always a hassle. He does not accept credit cards and takes advantage of the people working for him. When I paid him for work that one of his works completed, he kept the money and I had to pay the worker again. I could have refused but that seemed unfair to me. Another problem I found is that Manuel will take on project for which he is NOT qualified. I had to hire people to clean up after a soldering fiasco with a bigger plumbing job I had given him. I strongly advise against using Manuel."See more
