James Ira Lewis, JR Local Contractor Pleads Guilty To Thest Charges

You will want to avoid this man at all costs. He has ripped off dozens of people for many tens of thousands of dollars.in my case, I contracted with him for two different things. One for a new roof, and the other for siding on my home. He demanded of the price up front, which I later found out, is illegal in the state of Maryland.in any event, the roof was put on immediately. Of the roofers that did the job, only a couple knew what they were doing. The rest were being trained as they went.in the process, they completely destroyed my satellite dish, did a sloppy job on the trim, and I later found out that they had never put flashing around the chimney. Neither of these issues were ever fixed by him or his people.in addition, after his crew left, I found over 200 roofing nails in my yard, along with other roofing trash.

Additionally, I had paid $250 extra to have my 10x12 shed roof replaced. They said they would be back another day to do that job. It never happened either.

Then, there is the issue of the siding for the house. It never happened. He simply took my money and ran with it. Despite my many calls, all I ever got was one excuse/lie after another. At this same time, there was an article in the Maryland Coastal Dispatch (and the local news and papers) about a contractor ripping people off.

Reference: http://MDCoastDispatch.com/archives for the full story.

The Maryland Home Improvement Commission and the local Bureau of Investigation took him to criminal court (Case #5I00063992) with 14 people listed as Plaintiffs, myself included. Each time he would show up, he would bring minimal amounts of money in an attempt to get the judge to extend the case. This went on for three years. Finally, when everyone had tolerated it long enough, he was given a one year sentence, six months suspended, and serving time with work release.

When that ended, I personally took him to small claims court (Case # 0204-0000114) for the remaining balance due of what he still owes me. I got a judgment and he was ordered to pay me the remaining balance. He said he would have it paid within two months. Never happened. I immediately placed a lien against his properties.

After waiting over a year with no results, in April of I sent him a letter demanding my money by July.in return, I got a call from some kid pretending to be a lawyer, informing me that by Mr. Lewis going to jail, he didnt owe anyone anything. I still have not seen a dime of the several thousand dollars he still owes me.

While I had check him out prior to dealing with him, I didnt know the right avenues to find information that would have sent me running away from him. The intent of this letter is to provide you with the information you should check out for yourself.

In this one county alone, Mr. Lewis currently has 57 legal issues against him, not to mention his extensive time behind bars. You can check these out at the link below:
http://casesearch. Courts. State. Md.Us/inquiry / will show his criminal history.

Www.dllr. State. Md.Us/license/mhic / will show that he doesnt have a MD license.

Www.baltimore. BBB.org will show he is not a member of the MD BBB.

When Mr. Lewis did this to me, he was doing business as Jimmy Lewis Roofing, out of Ocean City, MD. He changes his company name often, but is currently doing business as Affordable Roofing & Renovation & Masonry out of Harbeson, DE.

While I have documentation supporting everything I have said, I urge you to check him out thoroughly for yourself and make your own decisions. And just for the record, he still owes many people many thousands of dollars. Dont be another of his victims.
