  I hired this company to do my bathroom in June of 2023 , and as u can see the pictures I attached show you what kind of job they did or the job they did not do. He ( *********) I wish I knew his last name , was the charge of the project, he was horrible man he would make appts and never show up over 8 times he did that to me and he would never answer his phone. Then I finally had to call his company they did nothing either lady in charge was ****** she was just a talker she did nothing , so ********* was upset that I called his company on him so he called and threatened me to cut me up at my house and damage my cars so I filed with police dept but I never got my money back or did ever finish job ,look at pics attached. ********* and his company is worst company and people I have ever encountered. Then I filed a civil lawsuit against the company but I got notice back that address is vacant now. I hope he burns in hell .

  I paid Crown Service Group to fix my house after a pipe burst. They replaced the ceilings neglecting to include insulation. They would consistently claim to come and fix the issue, and then reschedule. ******* the contractor threatened to harm me when I challenged him on his actions.

  We hired Crown Service Group to install handrails in our property. We signed the service agreement on 10/26/2022, and planned to complete by 11/09. We paid the deposit of $1105 (65% of total) on 10/27. On 11/03, my husband tested positive for COVID-19, and we had to postpone the date of work following CDC's guidelines. After communicating with them, we decided on a new date of 11/21, before we will move to another state, and they promised to complete by Thanksgiving. On 11/21, however, the technician ****** did not show up and did not answer our phone calls. Finally, ****** told us they will come on the second day. Over the next few days, they kept telling us they were delayed due to problems with the materials they bought, but still promised to finish the job soon. On 11/29, ****** said he will come to finish the job and he only needed 15min, and we had him call our real estate agent to get him access. He got into a fight with my agent and insulted her with nasty slurs. He also called me asking for her office address because he will "punch her in the f*** face". Afterwards he apologized for his behavior, and still promised to do the job. On 12/1 he went to my property (the tenant was there), and demanded I pay up the rest before they start working. We refused and stated we will pay once they finish the work to our satisfaction, so he left without doing any work. We called their manager ******, who said their internal rules say client have to pay up before the work starts if the client is not physically at the property. We refused because it was never mentioned verbally or on the agreement, and we would have been there if they had not delayed so many times, and we could not trust them anymore to finish the job to our satisfaction if we paid upfront. She promised to call back with a resolution but never did. We called several times, leaving voice messages, but never heard back again.

  On 10/14/22 I reached out to Crown Service to have a leaking pipe inspected. I paid a $120 visit fee for the tech to come out and inspect water coming down a pipe under the sink and running into the basement. The plumber said he had fixed the leak by shifting a pipe back in to place. I was doubtful that was the problem, but he said the $120 visit fee provided for free repeat service if the same issue continued. Sure enough, the pipe kept leaking and I exchanged multiple text messages, phone calls and emails with Crown Service, trying desperately to have them come back and fix the issue. Meanwhile water continued leaking into the house. On December 2 I gave up and started working with another plumber. I can no longer get in touch with crown service group at *************) and the Plumber *******  ************* only picks up my calls if I call from an unknown number. I have been trying to get a refund for a while, and feel I am out of options.

  My husband contacted a handyman service and we received a response from *******, who said he was from Crown Services. ******* quoted us a price of $900. to remove and replace ceiling tiles in an area around 300 sq ft. in our basement. I texted him a link for the tiles we selected. He and his partner came on 11/6 and the partner spent roughly 1/2 hour removing tiles. ******* did nothing, They were to return the following day to install the new tiles. I paid him $585, 65% of total price. ******* called in sick the next day. I reached out to him 11/10 to see when he might be returning, he said he would return the following day. He was due between 12 & 2, showed up at 430 with wrong tiles. He stayed in the truck but his partner spoke to him, and I was told they made a mistake and would be right back with the tiles I selected. They never returned. Texted ******* and called Crown Services, no one responded. I wrote a complaint and ******* texted me a profane and threatening message claiming he owed me nothing, and clearly would not be returning. I offered to let him keep $300. for the 30 minutes of work his partner did but I received nothing but a rude and incoherent text. So I have a mess in the basement, exposed rafters, no new tiles and Im out $585.

  The company we paid is displayed on the carbon copy of the check, we did not receive a contract to sign, they simply asked for a check.  The check was written by my partner *****************************, who is the veteran.  The company we wrote the check to is Crown Service Group, ltd, but they were operating under the name J&X Handyman Services.  I was told the “chief of staff” is *******, who is the handyman who came to our house and who took the check from us.  Please let me know if you require any further information.  Thank you. we saw a text message from ******* stating that he was coming in the evening. We called and let him know that we cancelled because of the lack of communication and feeling uneasy about how things were going. ******* then proceeded to yell at us stating that this was "our problem". We did not respond in kind simply stated to not come to the house and hung up to avoid the confrontation. Then we called the bank to find out they cashed the check the same exact day we wrote it. I then reached out to them on 10/17 and left a voicemail because no one ever answers. Since then I have been told several times they have talk to their boss about resolving. it is now 10/20 I have yet to have resolution and have called every day. Will be filing a suit if no response by 10/21 EOB. All we want is a refund and to move on.
