Greedy Contractors and Builders in Edison, NJ

21 Nov

I don’t know about you, but greedy people get under my skin. It’s totally fine to be aspirational, even aggressive in business — but greedy and fraudulent are just unacceptable. What’s worse is when someone smiles in your face and stabs you in the back. You provide a service and get paid for that service. Everybody wins when everybody plays by the rules.  Unfortunately, that’s not always the case. As a result of doing business with Dennis Smith Custom Builders in Edison, New Jersey, someone I know, a supplier for Dennis Smith Custom Builders, was maliciously damaged. It is shameful to defraud an honest small business whose only mistake was trusting Kevin Smith and extending credit rather than requiring prepayment. Goods were provided and used, and payment promised for an extended period of time, but the company continues to be delinquent and has no qualms about it. Shame on you Kevin Smith.

 

Bad Experiences With New Jersey Contractor and Builders

19 Nov

Doesn’t it just suck when you work with a bad contractor? Someone who doesn’t have the decency and scruples to own up to being a normal human being…

You hear all the bad stories of friends and family members who have hired contractors or builders who have taken forever, made mistakes, used shoddy equipment, cut corners, or otherwise just created a really bad experience.

Sometimes it is due to honest underestimation of time or scope of work. But usually not. Usually it is a bad habit that perpetuates over time. Usually it is the nature of a bad contractor or builder.

The same goes with these contractors’ relationships with their suppliers. Sometimes they pay late, or not at all. Often they are disrespectful and just not easy to work with.

In my opinion Dennis Smith Custom Builders is all of the above. I guess you felt that one coming?

But it’s the truth.
