It's been close to 1 year and our project was never completed. repeated calls to the owner were not returned. He bounced a check to one subcontractor and did not pay another. He had a terrible relationship with the subcontractors and one subcontractor put a lien on the landlord's property for lack of payment. the landlord is threatening to terminate the lease. He either had only himself doing the work or occasionally 1-2 employees. He was always late and when called on it after waiting for him for 2 hours, he cursed me out and hung up on me. there's a reason he came in with the lowest estimate, but the saying is correct, you get what you pay for.
