Cavalier Homes, Inc.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!! I have never come upon such a dishonest, outright lying, and unprofessional person. This guy is a wolf in sheep's clothing. We hired him because he seemed to be a nice guy. We have had nothing but grief and aggravation once we signed the contract. We signed contracts in March of 2021 for a master suite extension.William Holland told us that the job would be completed by late July/ early August of 2021. He kept making excuses, blaming his architect's personal problems for delaying the drawing of the plans. We told him to cancel the contract when we saw nothing was getting done.He convinced us to continue with him stating that the town is only taking 3-4 weeks to issue permits and that the job would be completed by late October/early November of 2021. We agreed. We didn't hear anything for months. The day before the job is finally going to START (late December of 2021, which is over 4 months after the job is supposed to be FINISHED), he tells me his mason wants an additional 10,000 dollars to dig for the basement. This is almost a 100% increase in the cost claiming he didn't know the clearance for our property, in spite of being on our property many times. As of June 7th, 2022, almost a year after the job was supposed to be FINISHED, the job was still not anywhere near complete due to more lies and excuses. We finally had to hire competent contractors to finish the job as well as fix the many costly mistakes made this company spending thousands more. The only thing this guy is good at is collecting his payments and if you say you want to see some progress (we had a only a shell a month before the 3rd agreed upon completion date)before the next payment he threatens to stop all work. He said "If I don't get the payment today or by Monday at the latest, EVERYTHING STOPS" We have now turned this very unfortunate matter over to the department of consumer affairs and our attorney. I am writing this review so that others will not have to suffer what we are going through due to hiring this incompetent and unscrupulous company. The only positive comment I can say is that his sons are nice.. To sum it up, IT HAS BEEN AN ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE, THE QUINTESSENTIAL CONTRACTOR HORROR STORY.
