Dear Sirs:

Houston Boathouse Construction, aka Chris Kick, aka Erik, aka Houston Boathouse Construction Services, aka Knute Chris Kick, aka Houston Marine Construction, aka D & G Design, aka Deck and Gazebo Design, aka Shoreline Construction Services, was paid $20,000.00 advance to perform construction of a bulkhead and boathouse on my property in Seabrook, TX. The total cost of the job was to be $53,500.00. Specifically he was to remove my old bulkhead and boathouse, then construct a new bulkhead, dock, and boathouse based on my plans. There was a signed contract, and the money was transferred to him in a notarized transaction in the presence of a Chase Bank Vice-President.

His workers came to my property for several days in June. They performed a partial demolition of my old boathouse, but left the pilings from the old structure in place ('We'll get them out later.'). He drove some pilings for the new structure amid the old pilings. Some of the boathouse pilings he drove were crooked, and the pilings for the planned dock were driven in the wrong locations. Chris Kick said, 'Don't worry; this is how we do it. You're going to love it.' No work was done on removing the old bulkhead, or installing a new one.

Then Chris and his workers disappeared. Chris never answered my phone calls, so I finally went to a local Home Depot store and called him from their number. Chris answered at once, and told me that he was not going to return to the worksite, and that I should get another company to finish the job. He said that the work he had completed had consumed my entire $20,000.00. He said he would not return any money to me, that he did not have to talk to me anymore, and that he was going to hang up, which he did.

Debris from the old boathouse and his workers litters my yard and driveway. Loose scaffolding and other wood debris are scattered among the few pilings he did place, and will break loose with the next storm. It will cost a significant amount of money to repair Chris's poor work, remove the rest of the old boathouse, and clean up the piles of debris. Then I will still have to build the new dock and boathouse, as well as remove and replace my bulkhead. Of course, I have extensive photographic and video documentation of all this.

This same individual has already been reported in usacomplaints. Coms under the name of Knute Chris Kick and D & G Designs. When I read these reports, the conversations between Chris Kick and his victims, sound identical to the things Chris told me. I suspect there are multiple other victims of this individual in the greater Houston area.

Knute Chris Kick has a signed contract with me, was given $20,000.00 in advance, has done little work and a lot of damage, refuses to return to the worksite, and is keeping all the money.
