Eagle Home Remodeling, Inc

Do not let Dave Foss, the owner of this company, set foot in your home! He used to do business under the name of Premier Home Remodeling. But because of all the bad reviews, he shut down Premier and is now doing business under Eagle Home Remodeling. In 2005 he filed Bankruptcy (05-55318) for a company he owned and operated called Eagle Drilling. He also owns a company called Cloud Vision Technologies which purports to provide security for corporate computer data. Hired to do a total gut and remodel of the first floor of my house. Started the middle of January and supposed to finish by the end of February. Once the demolition was completed he kept demanding more and more money. Work ground to a virtual halt after he got his money. Before we hired him, we demanded that building permits be pulled. This was in the contract and we paid him. We allowed him to begin demolition only after he assured us that he had pulled the proper building permits. In March a building inspector paid an unannounced visit. Foss had not been returning his calls and setting up the required inspections. Turns out Dave Foss had lied to the Village about the scope of work and had only paid $30 for a permit to remove and replace 450 feet of drywall. Meanwhile, the entire first floor of my house had been gutted. This was such a big project that I had to order 2 of the biggest dumpsters you can get to remove the debris. Both dumpsters were full of debris. The entire first floor down to studs. Work was halted for a month for permits to be straightened out. Once work begins Dave Foss is bringing one or 2 workers a day with 2 or 3 sheets of drywall and working a few hours a day. The drywall installation required a crew of 5 or 6 workers due to the vaulted ceilings. Finally, on April 27, after I was fed up with his ridiculous excuses about why only one worker coming for a few hours a day, I fired Foss and sent a letter to him and the guy from Eagle that signed us up in January threatening to sue them personally for fraud. The guy that signed us up came over and told us he's no longer partners with Foss, but to avoid being personally sued agreed to finish the project. By now we had paid Foss the full contract price and then some. His ex partner informed us that Dave Foss could not finish the job because he is broke. All the money we had paid him was gone. Project was finally finished on July 1, 2015. That's about 4 months after it was supposed to be finished. On June 20, the subcontractor hired by Dave Foss to install 2 new windows knocks on my door demanding his money. Dave Foss never paid him and is not answering his phone calls, texts and emails. We paid Dave Foss for the windows. The contract called for 2 double hung windows. Foss never told the sub what the contract called for. Instead, Foss tells him to buy the cheapest windows he could find and install them. The windows are single hung. When I pointed this out to Foss he did not know the difference between a single hung window and a double hung window. I had to email him the Wikipedia link of the definition to educate him. We were able to get this subcontractor paid after he threatened to put a lien on my house and sue me for his money. I recently found out that another subcontractor, the plumber, hasn't been paid for part of the work. We paid Foss for the plumbing. Know of at least one more subcontractor who did work for Dave Foss on another project that was not paid and is chasing him for his money. This guy has left a trail of disaster everywhere he goes. My wife just ran into another homeowner in my town who has his own horror story to tell about Foss. I honestly don't know how he can walk around without being scared to death that one of his victims is going to see him.

My family went through a horrible ordeal at the hands of Dave Foss and his "company." For almost 6
