  AMERICAN HOMES LLC

  AHS is horrible.  The worst company ever.  Completely unresponsive, unreliable, no customer service, waiting times usually 1 hour, just incredibly bad.  They won't be able to stay in business doing what they do now.  Save yourself the headaches and use another home warranty company.

  Hillsborough Surveying Inc

  We called and ordered the surveys when we were purchasing both properties.  Came out promptly, charged us the usual and reasonable price for the surveys.  He worked in a timely matter and we had no problem with his work or the time to receive it!

  Wish the banks and others in the real estate field worked as fast as they did!  I have contacted him recently and throughout

  the time since on questions I have had about something on the survey....and he always was helpful.

  Island Bay Homes

  It went great.  Working with Brian and Dan was an excellent experience.  Not only were they on time but they actually returned my phone calls in a speedy fashion which I was unaccustomed to with other contractors before them.  Any time I had a concern we were able to work through it with no issue.  I am very particular about my things and even two years later I am constantly talking to people about the work island bay did for us.  The finished project exceeded my expectations as did their customer service.  I was comfortable with the crews that came to work on the house and was very impressed by their cleanup.  Even after our service was completed any issues that arose Brian was quick to take care of.  I would highly recommend Island Bay Homes to anyone whether you are adding an addition as we did or building a home from scratch.  They were an excellent company to work with.

  ROBERT C HAYNES CONSTRUCTION INC

  Fixed - Contract provided by Robert C Haynes Construction had an August 14th, 2008 completion date. On or before that date, the final certificate of occupancy would be obtained. We are in mid-October, and the home and pool are not completed. There are demands for more money, beyond the contracts signed with the bank. Contract signed stated that any additional "change orders" would be submitted to home owners, signed, and submitted to the bank prior to work completion. None have been provided or submitted, and now general contractor is claiming tens of thousands of changes, months after the fact. Examples include blueprints clearly show items, such as double pane windows, as priced and included, but Chris Haynes is now suggesting, 5 months after installation, that they are an upgrade and we should pay extra. They are specified on the blueprints. How are they an upgrade? Please note - Almost all subcontract work is outstanding. Quality of the construction to date has met expectations. Professionalism, communication, and honesty with us as a client by Chris Haynes has been lousy. We are now working with a legal firm to attempt to finish the project, per contracts with us and the lender. Note, the construction loan belongs to us, not the general contractor. general contractor claims to be out of money. We have paid within contract guidelines, as instructed by a bank inspector, in a timely manner each time the general contractor has called for inspection. 10 days ago, Chris Haynes met with us at the property, and stated he could not work on the home without additional money. Since we will not participate in extortion, we contacted the construction loan bank, who recommended an attorney firm here in Tampa, & we have begun legal proceedings. It is unfortunate, that now Chris Haynes claims that the pool is not in the construction loan. It is clearly on the bank documents and the property appraisal. Chris Haynes claims that we have violated contract by speaking with and working with subcontractors. We have e-mail instruction from Chris Haynes to "work with and instruct" sub-vendors. This is a small, custom home. How do you pick cabinets, tile, etc. without working with sub-contractors? We are very disappointed in the experience. We hope to be able to fire him, legally, and finish our home. I would not use Chris Haynes again as a general contractor to build a home or a pool. If you do, have your attorney review and modify the contract provided to make sure it protects you, and your home investment. Add a paragraph that give a bonus for finishing early, and a financial penalty for not completing the work on-time.

  Hagwood Construction & Restoration

  Two months ago (~February time frame) we had a storm come through and the window leaked in the exact same area. I called Hagwood Construction and received no response.
