Point West Engineering Reviews

  • Nov 7, 2020

The website for Point West Engineerin states that "excellence is our standard." If you believe that, Mike Kelley and Point West Engineering probably have a bridge to sell you.

My family hired Mike Kelley after my daughter was defrauded on the old frame that she purchased in 2015. The home subsequently needed numerous extensive repairs, which included the replacement of all the subfloors in the home in addition, but not limited to, repairs to the support structure within the crawl space of the home. Although we had every confidence in the alleged West Point graduate, our experience with Mike Kelley and Point West Engineering has become a costly nightmare.

My daughter initially called Mike Kelley after falling through the floors of her home and discovered the deteriorating substructure in dire need of repairs. Mike Kelley first visited my daughter’s home in Manatee County with several employees on February 4, 2017. Mike Kelley provided my family with an estimate of $20,000 for the necessary repairs that included, but were not limited to, new subfloors throughout the home, new interior flooring, and repairs to the substructure within the crawlspace to stabilize the home. In addition, due to a lack of inadequate ventilation within the crawlspace, Mr. Kelley agreed to re-design the ventilation within the crawlspace.

This new ventilation within the crawlspace included a system with a pump placed within the crawlspace, to prevent water gathering underneath the home, to help avert future problems in the substructure of the home. Because there was no direct access to the crawlspace of the home, Mr. Kelley assured us that building an access door to the crawlspace would also not be a problem. Although we were not in a financial position to begin repairs at that time, we had every faith in Mike Kelley and the high standards normally associated with a graduate of The U.S. Military Academy at West Point. In addition to the estimate, Mr. Kelley agreed to provide our family with an engineer’s report of the home for a fee of $250.

Two years later in late summer of 2019, when my family was in a financial position to begin the repairs, another call was placed to Mike Kelley and Point West Engineering. Mike Kelley visited the home a second time with several of his employees, inspecting the property and assessing the necessary repairs for a second time. Mr. Kelley honored the initial estimate of $20,000, given in 2017, and Mr. Kelley assured us a second time that the repairs we had previously discussed (ex: new flooring, ventilation, the pump in the substructure and access door to the crawlspace) would not be a problem. Mike Kelley requested a $4,000 down payment and an immediate cash payment was made to Mr. Kelly. As Mr. Kelley sat before my daughter and I, he counted the $100 bills to ensure the entire $4,000 was accounted for and re-assured my family again that the necessary repairs would be taken care of. Payment arrangements were made with Mr. Kelley and Point West Engineering for the remaining $15,000. Although, we were prepared to remove furniture and clear out the home, Mike Kelley stated that clearing the home was not necessary. Mr. Kelley acknowledged that his employees were experienced workers, accustomed to moving furniture and large items as needed. Despite Mr. Kelley’s reassurances, my family incurred an additional expense, renting a large POD, and moved many of the large items from the home to help ease the burden on the employees at Point West Engineering.

Mike Kelley of Point West Construction (also Point Erosion and/or Point Drainage) I. Tampa, Florida is a thief and a scam artist of the worst kind. If you want your home repaired and/or the repairs done right, DO NOT HIRE MIKE KELLEY AND HIS CREW OF BANDITS.

Mike Kelley's claim to fame is that he is a graduate of West Point, which I now doubt. If Mike Kelley did graduate from West Point he is a disgrace to their name.

Mike Kelley visited my home multiple times over several years. Mike Kelley took over $20,000 from my family for contracted work that he did not finish or even start. The work that Mike Kelley and Co. did do was really, really poor and not representative of someone like Mike Kelley who claims to be an "expert." Mike Kelley did not visit my house even one time after he got his hands on the money that was paid to him IN CASH. Most of the contracted work was never started and much was left unfinished. Upon doing some research on Mike Kelley and Point West construction, I discovered that there were numerous other, similar complaints about Mike Kelley by other people he had ripped off.

I wish I had known this and done more research before I hired the scumbag. Try looking on sites like the Better Business Bureau (where Mike Kelley has an "F" rating) and Yelp in the Tampa, Florida area. Do not just take my word for it, look hard at Mike Kelley's background and you will save yourself thousands and a lot of heartache. I have no idea what this con artist still has a license.
