    This guy is a ***** who will lie through his teeth and tell you story after story on why he cant get your project completed even though you put half your money down. I paid $2,600 in December of *************************************************** March of 2023. I called and emailed multiple times for updates and either I was ignored on each attempt or was given a lie of some sort. In August of 2023 I was informed he would give a refund but I have yet to receive it and had to hire a lawyer. I would not recommend this company to anyone, you'd be better off trying to build whatever it is you want yourself.

    We hired *** to re-do the floors in our house. He came out, took measurements, gave us a quote and we gave him a check for the work in the amount of $8500. Months went by with no work done and barely any contact. We decided last April we wanted either our money back, the material or a combination of both. We were told many times he would give us both but never did. We have had no contact from him since last May.

    Jims Custom Decks (*******************) has closed down his Old Town location and is being sued by many people and businesses in the local area.  He has opened a new business in Alachua County under his girlfriends name *******************.  The business is *************** at ************************************************************.  The ***** ********************** is collecting complaints, but Ive called them twice and have not received a call back from the investigating officer.pposed to have work commence the day of the hurricane. We gave him two full weeks afterward to give us a new start date, which we finally got told he would start it the week before Thanksgiving - but wait! ************ double booked his crew and he wouldnt be able to get to us after all. He had his designer come out to look at our home and draw up the plans. He told us the roof line for the porch would start halfway into the window. How can you walk under a roof that would only allow 5 feet or less of headroom? I called *** to tell him I wasnt sure that design would work. We havent heard any further scheduling or design modifications since. The contract states the deposit is non-refundable (we were told) for building material purchase. How can materials be purchased when there are no plans to go by? I believe we are entitled to either a full refund or the materials which have supposedly been purchased. If the materials are delivered, I expect a receipt to show $8000.00 in building materials.
