Hired - 3/22/2016
Fired - 10/24/2016
Norberto Paita is the owner of Forever Lasting Gardens. We agreed on a contract for his company to complete 9 retaining walls, a Fireplace and Pizza Oven with an outdoor kitchen all with Limestone blocks. Additionally, the dirt, grass sod
and a 6' horizontal cedar privacy fence around the entire back yard.
Price was agreed on $39, 057.00 and to complete the project within 2 months time.
Norberto always had excuses for not showing up or working very few hours. After 7 months and completing only approximately 40-45% of the job I had to fire him. He would not hire additional employees (only using 1 employee) and he would only show up 2-4 hours each day.
When I fired him he had not completed a single project, and had 90-95% of multiple items completed. He tore up my entire sprinkler system so I could not utilize any of my channels.
I am planning to file a civil suit in addition to this, as I have paid Norberto $39, 095.61 (We had agreed on additional change fees of $3, 000). I am wanting to get back a significant amount of my money.
I have included a video of the job when he was fired. I have also included all the sms chats to Norberto in this field (If you want the actual text document of the sms text I can provide them).

2016-05-23 10:00:18 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto All I want is my project completed. I would think that would be in your best interest versus this mess.

2016-06-14 10:33:34 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, you did not show up and said you were. This is not full time and can not continue. Are you going to do this or not?
2016-06-14 11:01:48 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Kris, We are doing the stone bench this week and then working on stone steps. The goal is to have the stone benches completed this week. Just because we are not there doesn't mean we are not working or given up.
2016-06-14 11:11:00 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto I just don't understand why someone is not on site doing other things? Digging, tearing things down, moving rock, etc
2016-06-17 11:17:27 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, left you a voicemail. You have not met your commitment that you would start full time. We need to talk in person and discuss providing most of our money back. Let me know when we can meet.

2016-06-29 11:03:24 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto This usually wouldn't be a problem, but this is the 3rd day in a row and of course we are 4 months into a project with continued absence. We really will need to see full days tomorrow (6am-5pm) even through Saturday and Sunday.
2016-06-29 11:09:03 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto K I will do that.
2016-06-30 08:54:59 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Thanks for getting conor here early. When are you going to complete the first wall that has 2 rows done? I would like to clean the patio as we take our daughter down to swim.

Again I apologize. Norberto
2016-07-03 12:34:46 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, you missed 3 days and half a day yesterday and nothing today. This is not at all what we agreed. I just have no faith in anything you are saying. I don't understand why you are not out here working even if they don't show up.
2016-07-05 13:01:41 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Kris, This morning got 2 ton of stones to take you your place. When I left the quarry my brakes were squealing and truck was moving like it had low pressure. We fix the brakes and took it for a test run and it started to vibrate. The rear bearing on the drive side is out. So we are changing it right now. Once done we be heading your way. Norberto
2016-07-06 15:17:15 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Where are you

2016-07-06 15:24:00 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Kris, We are on our way. We install stone earlier. We went to lunch at 11:50 then had to drop off some stuff at home.
2016-07-06 15:29:19 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto It's 330? Almost 4 hours gone. Nothing yesterday. 4 hours total for this weekend when you said it would be the entire weekend.. Nothing has changed
2016-07-09 11:24:42 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Hey Norberto, we have left the house this morning. You sure you still are going to complete the work you promised by Monday morning?
2016-07-09 11:35:57 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Dig out for the two medium walls (where pizza oven is) ready, I just arrive with more stone. It's going to be close. Remaining : 1. Steps 2. Few stone for bench. The extra layer is on monday.
2016-07-09 11:46:38 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Sounds great. Extra layer is the stone top for bench and stairs right?
2016-07-09 11:50:13 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto No its the one that makes it taller. I'm bring Tha sawed patio stone this week that's what's on top of bench and steps.

2016-08-06 14:40:40 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto let's discussed the $1850 for the higher wall. I purchased the stone and there is no extra materials. So that is high for labor only

2016-08-11 08:45:24 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Are you coming to work today

2016-09-09 11:27:05 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, I have been trying to get an update from you? Since you got aseptically money you have not been back to work the entire week now.
2016-09-09 11:28:10 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto I texted Connor and he told me that you have him a check for $1200 and it bounced. So he is not working this week as he is working elsewhere so he can get money. This is not acceptable as I paid you $2000 just for Connor and now you and he are not working.
2016-09-09 11:34:29 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto I was there yesterday. I told you what I needed . But I'm not going to discuss this now. I have to do what needs to be done to get the project done. I'll be out there later today dropping materials. I already talk to Connor about it.
2016-09-09 11:39:16 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto What you ask for would have left less than $10k to finish the project.. i am not willing to pay you and have nothing left over at the end for payment
2016-09-10 10:49:01 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Are you not showing up today? I was home yesterday and did not address you come... What is going on Norberto?

2016-09-22 12:02:52 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto K just here working
2016-09-24 15:58:01 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, we have been thinking about money on this project. We might consider paying you weekly based on amount of time you work? You put in the 40 hours we pay you a full discussed price and add you with less we pay less.
2016-09-24 15:59:40 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto That way you are getting money and we can get you to work hours? We paid you$4k almost 4 weeks ago and you have not worked even a quarter a week of time each week.
2016-09-25 12:48:08 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Kris, I do not do business that way. I require $8k on monday morning ( about $6, 444 remaining from total amount) .i have to make sure your project gets done and my business doesn't fall. I'm under a lot of stress but I don't give up. I have family and conor depending on me. I'm committed and been there almost everyday on your project, and making sure it's done correctly. I'm not going to argue with you. I know what I need to do to succeed. I promise I won't fail you. Thanks, Norberto
2016-09-25 13:04:19 out +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Norberto, I am not paying you $8k on Monday. I gave you$4k and you have not done half of what you said 4 weeks ago. Every time I give you money you disappear for weeks and it takes 4x longer.
2016-09-26 08:23:23 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto I'm here
2016-09-26 08:40:10 in +[protected] Forever Lasting Gardens Norberto Can we meet somewhere?
