Michael Simpson Reviews

  • Sep 7, 2016

We hired Mr Simpson to do some remodeling in our house. We paid a substantial material deposit up front and agreed to pay an hourly wage to complete the work. We agreed to allow acess to our property from 8am to 8pm to do the work. Mr Simpson would show up as late as 11:30 am or 12:00pm and then want to work til 9:30pm or 10:00pm to get his hours in.

After appoximately 4 weeks into the job we decided it was best to let him go. It took him over 40hrs labor to install a basic shower stall kit, a job a licensed pumber accomplished in 6hrs in our other bathroom. He had put plumbing in the wrong locations, tried to put a door in the wrong place and improperly supported the subfloor all of which we have since paid another legitimate LICENSED contractor tear out and redo. The final straw was when he soldered a potable water pipe with lead based solder.

This is illegal in all 50 states and has been since the early eighties. none of the work he completed was up to our standards or upon inspection up to local building codes.

After we terminated his employment we asked for the unused portion of the materials we were charged for. There was over $2600 unaccounted for in unpurchased materials of which he told us that he didnt have to give us any receipts for and that we were not intitled to a refund for. He claimed the original material deposit was non refundable. This was not mentioned in the original contract.

He represented himself as a Licensed contractor and claimed he knew what he was doing. He later admitted in a court hearing that he along with a former partner was licensed at "one time". He even went as far as giving us invoices for repairs to his personal truck and gas expenses to justify keeping the extra money. Who gets paid to drive to work? not me.
