Les Pence Construction & Roofing

The house addition took much longer than promised. We are still experiencing problems with substandard work. I would tell Les things that we wanted done and he would say no problem and then he or someone else would do whatever the heck they wanted to, that was not what we wanted. When we would find these, Les would act as if we were in the wrong and wasted his time. Les seems to either not write down what we say or want or just plain forget. My bathroom ceiling shovel have been changed to Sheetrock meant for bathrooms. It was not. And I have had numerous problems with the ceiling in my bathroom and the painters have fixed it approx 3 times and I was told they wouldn’t come fix it again. ITS STILL WRONG! And it not my fault! I’m not the contractor. The tile in the bathroom was placed the wrong way. The floor was placed on the walls of the shower and the wall tiles were placed on the floor. It’s little things like this. That turned out to be many that makes it so frustrating. There is a 1 inch gap from the main house to the addition and apparently this quality construction contractor Les Pence thought that was ok and right. I’ve had to have my carpet fixed numerous times. This just isn’t professional. He installed a pocket door in the bathroom that had a lock and it doesnt even maths up with the side of the wall where the lock would actually go. So it useless! After moving in, I noticed that my shower didn’t even have silicone or anything to prevent water from going into the cracks and Into the wall. What kind of professional forgets this? Next, I just had my house inspected and I had to pay an electrician to fix the GFI in the bathroom, it was wired wrong! Next, after the ceiling of the bathroom Kept chipping large chunks of paint, the electrician came and placed a light/​fan combo above the shower to assist with the steam. Thank God I checked behind this lazy person. All he did was hook it up and piped the steam from my shower directly into my attic where it would cause mold/​mildew etc! I called him out on this and he seemed upset that I found this and then had to go get a DRYER HOSE, and hook it up and now it is hung by picture frame wire and at the eve of my house. Not even going outside. Next, I just happen to change my lightbulbs to LED LIGHTS, thank God I did this, every one of the ones they installed were so hot they had turned black and were warped! Such a fire hazard. Not even done, so the professionals installed my custom made large tub, this thing is huge. Wanna guess where they placed the drain that had to be turned and closed before filling the tub? Yep. On the far side. I have to climb into the tub, not lean over just to close the drain. This should have been common sense. Things that should have been done right the first time, I had to find and ask several times for them to be fixed
Update: Les Pence immediately received this review and made every necessarily means to fix and remedy the issues.
