Belfor USA

On 5÷4÷11 we had a major fire in our home damaging the entire house. Belfor was called in and at first the demolition and removal of contents went without a hitch. Then the problems started — an incompetent carpenter who did shoddy work which they still have not fixed, a bad leak in a wall from a hole put in by — according to them — the plumber or heating and cooling contractor — who knows. Their response was to paint over the buckled paint and drywall instead of fixing it properly and repairing the hole. The estimator who was on the job was rude, nasty and heaven help you if you did not meet his demands as evidenced by him coming into my home and trying to bully me into signing the final authorization for payment before they were finished. It was a fight for them to do the garage which is attached to the living room wall which is where the fire started and most of the damage occurred. When they were told about the smoke smell I was told «oh yeah, we know but figured it was no big deal». And now they want further payment for work they still have not finished and want to blame it on me for my «inability to contact Belfor». I’m sure it has nothing to do with the numerous calls I put in to them before I left on vacation which evidently I was not supposed to do before they decided to mosey on over and fix what still needs to be fixed. I would get bricks and cement and finish my house myself if need be rather than call Belfor for anything ever again. They can continue to threaten me all they want but no one should get paid before all the work is completed… not even when they think they are the Gods of reconstruction.
