Watkinson Custom Builders, Kevin Watkinson
Contractor damages bathroom, doesn't finish, takes money and disappears

Kevin Watkinson contracted to renovate bathroom in April, promised completion by end of May. He showed us pictures of lovely work done on a home, and said he'd worked for a custom builder and was starting out on his own... Turned out it was his dad he worked for and the work, on his mother's home, was with Dad's help too.

He began work without permits, said he was "in process of getting license" and wouldn't apply for permits, and that we didn't need permits. We insisted and applied ourselves. He came sporadically over the next months, a few hours here and there, and it stretched into 5 months!

He installed the medicine cabinet so high we could barely see in the mirror, moved it so low it barely clears the faucet, and it's off center, the wainscoting and molding are badly damaged, AND he cut thru into the kitchen wall 4 times, what a mess. He damaged toilet seat and shelf on vanity by putting tools or feet on them w/o dropcloth. He didn't complete the walls, or put a door on the linen closet. Month after month we thought he'd make it better... Lots of excuses, little talent.

He didn't pay the plumber who would not return w/o payment so we paid plumber directly which was the balance we owed Kevin... So now he's paid in full and HE DISAPPEARED with our money and a bathroom damaged, not finished, A MESS. He is being sought by supply vendors, other customers.
