We want to start this by saying we loved Jonathan. He communicated, answered our questions, was always here to complete his tasks, and had integrity (stayed late fix a water pipe he ran over in our yard without being asked).Sid, on the other hand, was incredibly difficult. I have never seen anything like it. We just finished building a house with a contractor last year, and we have worked with dozens of companies for various parts of the building process with zero problems. Working with Sid was the WORST experience we have ever had - ever. I would rate this as a zero if it were at all possible.A project that was supposed to be done August 13 is still not complete, and we had to fire PatioLandia this week (directly because of Sid) for not completing the project any where near the expected time frame, failing to communicate, asking for MORE money without showing any receipts, not paying their workers, and insisting that their workers to do a bad job (pictures attached) to get it done because he was being made sick from the stress of us reaching out to see if people were coming to work. Sid rarely showed up when he said he would, was working on multiple projects (after assuring us at the contract signing that he does one job at a time), and he consistently belittled and spoke poorly of his workers. Workers were told they were not being paid because our family had not paid him, and that is a complete lie. Sid did not know that my wife speaks Spanish, and we were privy to all of the side conversations he had with the workers towards the end of the project. They were not professional.There are reviews from a year ago, and maybe the company had it together then, but what is happening there now is a complete scam. We are out tens of thousands of dollars with a project that is not even halfway done. We refused to make the last payment until more work was done, and Sid argued with us with a bunch of lies and no proof of payments for materials. We are being forced to seek legal action.
