Home Builders in GVRD

Avoid this company like the plague: Cardero's construction. He'll bid you low, and bring a big mexican guy to intimidate you into paying him before he finishes the job.

Biggest piece of shit human being I've ever met in my life. I hired to him to build my garage for me. A competent pair of framers can do it in two days. Took his lazy piece of shit mexican workers three weekends to do it. I was up nailing goddamn joist hangers because I wanted them to finish faster. I let them use my ladder, my chop saw, and they still messed it up.

They were so incompetent they nailed the plywood sheeting in place vertically. The inspector laughed when he saw it. His words: "what, did you hire drywallers or something to frame this up?"

Sorry, this was six years ago and I'm still lit over what an asshole this piece of turd of a human being was.

I even paid him more than his quote figuring the job would be finished. At 4pm his workers hadn't finished the roofing sheets and the it was just tacked on. Motherfucker pulled his crew. "I've lost money on this gig, I'm going to need more to finish it".

My dad taught me how to frame and I framed about 15 houses with him. I saw the dumb fuck things these idiots were doing and called them out. The idiots had to be reminded to put the damned sil gasket in place even.

First fucking day one mexican wandering around my trusses with a tape measure. I was watching this idiot and should have called it off right then and there. All I could think was "why the fuck are you measuring the height of this truss? these are engineered and I have the the plans. You're just trying to look busy and I'm not buying it".
