"Signed contract 11/12. Permitting request made; permit issued 1/30/2025. Drywall/insulation work begun almost immediately. Spoke on phone with GC just over 2 weeks ago to review time frame for rest of work. GC stated he planned to meet with me and walk through the following week. Stated painting would begin the following week (this would be the week of 2/10). Neither event happened. Also asked about floor tiling job, as I had outside company doing the job & wanted to let that person know when he could plan on the job starting. GC stated 2 weeks out; that would have been this past week. This didn't happen either. I texted GC 2/18 to ask if we could meet at house the next day. No reply. Called cell # 2/19 requesting call back to discuss lack of recent progress. Emailed 2/21 with same request, reminding him that I'm renting a place & am unable to stay indefinitely. Again asking about time frame on project. On 2/22, texted again, asking that he please call me. Each time I've attempted contact, I've asked him to please call me to discuss project & time line. He has not responded to me at all. This is the reason for my complaint. As of now, I feel left in the dark about whatever is happening or not. He is not communicating to me. I feel like he is avoiding contact. At present, I have no idea what his plans are schedule-wise for the project. It feels like my house project is in limbo right now. For more than a week, nothing has been done inside the house, with no explanation as to why. I think the GC has possibly over-extended himself, due to the magnitude of people needing assistance post-hurricanes and therefore may not have much spare time. But he needs to make sure his customers are being taken care of and communicated with."

"Workers arrived late. Seemed very inexperience, and lacked a professional and serious attitude towards the landscape project they to perform. Paid for lawn sod replacement ($300) to find out it was totally. destroyed because they had to come back to correct a patio paver deck that was slanted toward to the foundation instead of away from the foundation. Had Owner return to correct the issue after he still insisted there was no problem. When he finally returned to correct the issue he realized that the entire patio had to be realigned. During the process he broke a pool pipe! It was a disaster and could have been avoided if the patio pavers were installed properly the first time. The owner may have good intent but lacks experienced employers. Had also expected me to pay for the cost of his error in sawing through my pool pipe. Would not recommend him for major landscaping projects . Paid $12,600 OVERPAID! As Elderly People have learned a lesson."

FAQs for engineer structural projects in Clearwater, FL
You should replace floor joists as soon as you see clear signs of structural trouble—sagging floors, wide wall cracks, uneven door frames, wet or rotting wood, persistent squeaks, or windows that no longer latch. Tilted or sinking supports in the crawl space are another red flag. If you notice any of these signs, call a pro right away to keep your home’s structure safe.
If the joists are exposed from below, a pro can swap them out without touching the finished floor above. In an unfinished basement or crawl space, you’ll often see the joists and can easily reach them. When insulation, subflooring, or finished flooring blocks access, the crew must remove these materials before repairs can begin.
Sistering allows a pro to reinforce a cracked or undersized joist without tearing up the entire floor. The contractor slowly raises the frame, then fastens a new joist snugly against the damaged one to share the load. When done correctly, sistering restores full structural strength and keeps the floor level without the cost of a complete replacement.
Floor joists installed correctly in a stable environment can last for 100 years or more, often outlasting the house itself. However, termite damage, moisture, leaks, and other problems can significantly reduce a floor's lifespan. For instance, if the floor is exposed to consistent moisture, you'll likely need to replace the joists every 20 to 30 years.
Homeowners' insurance covers floor joist damage resulting from sudden and accidental events, such as fire, windstorm, or water damage from a burst pipe. It will not cover repairs resulting from gradual deterioration, poor maintenance, or termite infestations. Review your insurance policy and consult your provider to verify the conditions that guarantee full coverage. Doing so ensures you are fully aware of your responsibilities and can plan your repair work with complete confidence.
Floor joists are essential structural components that provide a stable foundation for your home. They directly transfer the weight of floors, furniture, and occupants to the foundation, ensuring stability and a safe living environment. Without these robust beams, the structure would face compromised load distribution, leading to potential safety hazards and costly repairs. Proper installation and maintenance are crucial for long-term durability and safety.
