We were having our driveway pave and our paver recommended that we have our landscaping stones sealled. He also recommended Philipp Simmons, an aquaintance who he was trying to help start his business. I was quoted $800.00 for the job and was told there was no money paid until the job was done.
About 2 weeks later Philipp came buy, gave me a sob story about some customer not paying him and asked for $400.00 down to cover the cost of the sealer. Like a dummy I gave it to him.
By this time it was too late in the year to put the sealer on so I asked for my money back and I'd see him in the spring. At first he said no problem, but then as days and weeks went by, I had trouble even getting him on the phone. When I did he gave me every excuse in the book, including when a certain customer pays him, he'll pay me. That was last December.
I am now in the position to sell my house and no longer want to do the sealing. Good luck to me ever seeing my $400.00 ever again.
If I do, I will amend this review.
