    DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY - DO YOUR RESEARCH.*********************** is presently facing legal action in three separate cases for failing to make payments to a subcontractor. Additionally, he is involved in two other lawsuits related to nonpayment for materials, with the total amount exceeding $300,000. *********************** prefers to receive upfront payments from clients but tends to only perform essential tasks like demolition. After submitting a proposal for the customer to electronically sign via DocuSign, he requests a "deposit" of $5,000 or more through his **************************. However, once the payment is collected, ***** often fails to initiate or complete the entire project, leaving the job unfinished. ***** engages subcontractors who lack proper licensing or bonding, and he often manipulates the permitting process. This involves either submitting permits under Chi-Line Construction while hiring another company to do the job at a lower cost or allegedly filing another contractor's business license without proper authorization. The act of illegally obtaining a permit under someone else's business license raises significant concerns about potential misrepresentation or falsification of legal documentation in a professional context, marking a serious violation of legal and ethical standards within the construction industry. Furthermore, ***** is currently in debt to several subcontractors for recent jobs. He is presently involved in a legal dispute with a subcontractor who is *********** more than $15,000. The services were finalized in January 2023, but ***** has not made any attempt to settle the payment, and he is unresponsive to phone calls or text messages. In general, this company operates as a comprehensive scam, primarily focused on collecting funds while delivering only the most minimal services. Despite the owner's denial of any wrongdoing, it's challenging to dismiss the legitimacy of over 50 customer complaints seeking justice.

    Very disappointing experience from someone we wanted to help. Had no respect for our time at all. Would send random people to do "something ", but typically no communication or plan. A lot of wasted time and workers who were not skilled for the jobs they were sent for. Many days we waited and noone would show, taking time away from our jobs. Took over 3 months to redo our bathroom. Should have been done in 4-6 weeks. We paid him a large sum of money, but he did not pay the supplier and they are now going to put mechanics lien on our home, because supplies were delivered to my house. Have not heard anything in over a month now and no resolution. Our project was not completed and many things had to be redone. Sad that it seems like he used our money to pay for other projects and cut corners. Takes no responsibility. Will likely have to seek legal avenues. Be warned before contracting with them. Just sad!

    I had the same thing happen to me with the deck situation they never past inspection with the ********************** and when told all the problems that needed fixing after waiting 2 months when they promised they would be back in a week I am still waiting now going on 3 months . They pour concrete which is a hot mess and promised to fix that too and that was last year. But they came and collected their money ****** on the spot. This company ***** will never use them again for anything

    Had a job for a deck that was supposed to be done within a cpl to a few weeks. Job ended up taking MONTHS. The contractors would just randomly show up to work random days, would say they'd be back the next day and then wouldn't show up at all... some***** would go days with no one working on the project. Some guys would say that they were being pulled to other jobs, so they had no consistency of getting the work done here. We were always left with a mess in the yard and the deck had to be rebuilt since it wasn't done correctly the first time. Until you actually complain about what is not getting done, then the owner feels the need to tie up loose ends and do what he can to "make things right". Poor poor communication. Makes promises and doesn't fulfill them. If you have a job that will pay big money- you will probably be a priority, but the littler jobs will get pushed under the rug, as ours did. We are STILL waiting (this job started late May- getting materials), waiting for a portion of our deck to be finished. They've come out a cpl ***** to look at and address it, been told they'd come back to work on it,... then nothing again,.... then told again I'd have someone here this week... now nothing again, with no one giving me ANY updates on it getting done. It's been BEYOND frustrating when you're paying out big $$$ for something, and you're constantly left hanging with no answers. Please listen to these negative reviews. I've never left a review, but 5-6 months later, and we're still left wondering when this job will get finished. Owner will always make excuses and try to make it seem like what they did was right, but I would never want to be lead down this path by any contractor.

    ***** and his crew I would trust for any work I may need done. I truly cannot understand nor comprehend a negative review. Anytime we have needed a quote, advice, or actual work completed, Chi-Line has been there without question. Please focus on the positive reviews. We live in a world where people will find any reason to complain, justified or not. Chi-Line has taken care of us. You can trust that!

    Chi-Line made my basement dreams come true. Finished the job in the time they said it would be done and even catered to my last minute changes. I now have my dream office, space for friends and family to stay as well as a bathroom, and a beautiful area for my kids to play in.

    Had concrete poured in April. Lousy job to begin with. Was told they would send someone out to repair anything I needed. Last conversation I had was in June 5th. Then the owner texts me almost two months later saying someone would be at my house today to repair the concrete. Sorry but this isnt on your time anymore. I havent heard from you in almost two months now you want things done in your time? And you then threaten me? No the right thing to do with your clients. Poor customer service.
