Travis Bachmeier

Currently we have a concilliation court date on October 6^th with Travis Bachmeier. We hired Travis to install a privacy fence this past June (2015). We paid, in advance, the first of our three installments. He failed to show and or call four separate and scheduled times. In our frustration we told him we no longer desired his services. We asked for our $ 1050 back, but never heard from him again. We filed a complaint with both the Attorney General’s office and the BBB. After no success with either of those outlets to mediate we finally just filed a claim against him with Hennepin County. We would NEVER recommend this man to anyone.

I contracted Travis to build a fence for my home and at first he was responsive and seemed trustworthy but I soon realized I hired the wrong person. Travis built the fence and rushed through the project leaving uneven posts and planks and doing shoddy work. I made the mistake of paying him in good faith that he would finish the project but he did not. The gates were installed incorrectly and the hardware didn’t work so I ordered new hardware in hopes of having him come back and re-​install. After two months he finally came back only to leave shortly with my hardware and a promise of coming back tomorrow to finish the job. Another lie as two weeks later he wouldn’t respond to any of my messages and wouldn’t return my hardware. I had to threaten legal action and call him from a different number to get the hardware back but he has no intention of ever finishing the job. If you are looking for a cheap handyman for a job please look elsewhere. I found two other victims on craigslist that have experienced the same story. He goes by handyman Travis Bachmeier and his number is 612−308−6102 and he even posted pictures of my fence as proof but it doesn’t show the shoddy work. Avoid the hassle and avoid Travis.
