Poseidon Construction and Services

This would be the 1st Negative review I have ever posted, it took me quite a while to come to this and I do it sadly. I hired Poseidon in April 2021 to redo a house for me. They cashed the first check 5/11/21 with a “guaranteed” completion date of mid June. I understand construction and that “things happen” so I am flexible somewhat with dates. I had to check with Poseiden a few times throughout, due to other scheduling such as 1. Are we on schedule for the floors to be installed on “blank” date. “Absolutely” was the response I received. So I schedule the floor install! My floors were painted with overspray that was later cleaned up. 2. Are we on schedule for the appliances to be deliver and installed by a third party on “blank” date. Yes” was the answer I received. Could not install garbage disposal or washer/dryer as these areas/rooms were not done 3. Asked the owner (after the above) are we back on schedule for an appraisal on “blank” date. Very important as we can reschedule appraisal. “Absolutely “ was the answer I got. Appraisal got kicked back as there were no counter tops, no master bath and the 2nd bath was incomplete. Appraisal had to be redone On 7/19/21 Company send invoice that would constitute 90% of job paid. FYI- there are no change orders for this job except they were going to replace 3 windows and according to them had to brick up one to fit kitchen cabinets in. So no windows were replaced. 7/19 I responded to the invoice email saying no problem but I need a new completion date. On 7/22 they responded with 8/9/21. I emailed back I would give the check to their person on site (my home) that evening. I did not know at this point that they had no one working on my home. And throughout the next 7 days no one came back. On 7/28/21 I handed the check to the owner at another Job site. (90% of the job is now paid for) On 8/5/21 I ( frustrated) texted owner the following: Start: “ Good evening I am assuming we are still on schedule for the 9th even considering you have pulled everyone off my job for the last 2 weeks without any notice to Chris and myself. Items still incomplete (not a complete list) 1. Master bath not done- cabinet broken and sink chipped 2. Master linen closet not done 3. Guest bath not done and medicine cabinet needs replaced as it is broken 4. Laundry not done 5. Attic stairs not installed 6. Garage not done (and not even close) 7. Electrical not done 8. Exterior of house where window removed not painted So, are you sending an entire team to complete on time - are you sending anyone. You have already been paid 90% and am requesting you complete this job by your 3rd completion date of 8/9/21, professionally, to the best of you ability and with skilled tradesmen. Please update me in writing so I know how to proceed.” End 8/7/21 (after above text to owner)external wall painted, medicine cabinet installed in guest bath (no mirror yes) and lights installed in garage. Nothing else.
