30k !!?? WTF !!?? I just hired a LICENSED Contractor to replace siding, replace windows, replace exterior doors, and do a metal roof. The Contractor wanted $4500 for the labor and I went around town with him buying the supplies. Materials and labor cost me under 10k and everything completed in 7 days. The Contractor, 1 helper, and sometimes me because I have construction background. The Contractor worked from 10am to 6pm nonstop everyday and they cleaned up all the trash afterwards. Always!! Always!! Get a LICENSED Contractor and check with the State Construction Licensing Department to make sure the Contractor is still licensed with the state. Many just get a license the first time and never renew it. They must maintain Licensing requirements.
Respectfully, no legitimate contractor works like this.. period 1) a good contractor can get materials far cheaper and more efficiently than a homeowner who doesn't do it everyday 2) tons of liability allowing a homeowner anywhere near the work.. both in injury and liability, inefficiency .. background or not 3) the price is scary cheap .. you preach legitimate contractor but they have legitimate expenses which you expect . That costs money ... that you don't want to pay ... oxymoron
I have to agree. The inflated costs for a contractor is wild. I just redid my shower for $2000 including materials when another contractor wanted to charge $5000 not including materials. You're better off going with someone you trust that won't rake you through the coals. The big, well established contractors will absolutely bleed you dry on costs and most of that money goes to overhead costs, not your project. Let those who are ignorant to the construction biz pay those overly inflated costs. They don't know any better.
Hi everyone - Thank you for your comments on this story from KPRC 2 News at 10. No jail booking photos were included in this story because at the time of the report, no arrests had been made, and the suspects do not have any available previous booking photos. Should that change, we will update our reporting accordingly.
Wow! They’re smart enough to start the business yet dumb enough to think a casino is a good investment. Sounds like these guys had high prices but if they just did good work, people would pay and they could’ve made some serious money. I hope they didn’t sell the tools because now there’s a big hole to dig out of.
“Editor's Note: No jail booking photos were included in this story because at the time of our report, no arrests had been made, and the suspects do not have any available previous booking photos.”
None of those people are getting their money back. There are some types of justice in this world that people like this deserve. Never pay until the job is done.
I'm just gonna say it bluntly. Unless Channel 2 can explain otherwise, I can't help but to think they didn't show their mugshots because these are white suspects, and the TV station is worried about being sued for defamation, despite the fact they HAVE been charged with crimes.
Classic construction scam. The only thing that’s even worse is if you pay them half they do some of the work and then ask for the rest of the money and then disappear or say they need $2000 more to finish the work.
It all depends on the company. My company always gets 50% down and 50% on completion. I've never had any issues and all my clients are happy when we are done. One bad apple really does ruin it for the rest of us.
😮😮 God blessed them with a businesses and willing clients, and they gambled it away!? And now they've gambled away their freedom too. They had it all and fumbled big time. Why couldn't they be content with what they had?
listen. there are a ton of us that are great contractors. i charge 50% up front. always have always will. difference is that i have never ever stiffed a homeowner. i also dont take the second half until the homeowner is smiling and satisfied with the job done.
Dumb how people want to win a million at casino, but spend a million instead just keep the money you have already. Casinos are not is business because they loose money. They are there to take all the community money away most of the time they succeed.
I had a $150k home addition done and my contractor only asked for $1K deposit since it's the law here in CA which a lot of people probably are not aware of.
Yeah, I was over here crying about getting scammed way less than that but taking money from anyone is not OK. They deserved to be jailed and pay everybody restitution.
STOP PAYING FOR WORK UNTIL IT'S COMPLETED 😮IF that don't work for contractors then move on to the next one that agreed to your contract.Have a written contract that states funds are paid when job is completed!!
I caught a contractor attempting to take $6k he owed my company with him on a vacation trip to a casino with his fiance😂. Had to press him for it in front of his family
Take him to a Court tv show like judge judy. They on the run right? No pictures now they can get other people while on the run since he's been doing it. SHOW THE PICTURES
clearly this guy is a silky smooth snakeoil salesman. i use to "hired" contractors like this too. now i just decided to do all my own contracting work. the root of all evil exist no matter where we are at.
@@MrStaybrown highly educated people getting cheated and still get the work done. How can you make so much money and have such poor discernment? There must be something in the university water. How do so many educated earners not pay a 40k loan in 25 years?
People don’t know this place is hell, they call it “earth”. They have free will and can either use that free will to do what Jesus taught or they can stay trapped in hell…..stealing, murdering, lying, lusting after their cousins (we are all cousins). We all have 1 of 2 choices They choose the latter of the 2 cuz they were taught that Jesus only came here to die for their sins….not to sacrifice his time/days trying to warn them, show and teach them the only WAY out of hell. They “don’t believe in any of that” and they surely don’t believe god is watching what they do and that what they do to each other is what determines where their soul goes when their meat suit expires. Most, if not all are out there wanting, saying and doing things to others that they would never want others to do to them and Jesus tried to warn them. Let them tell it and Jesus roamed this planet for over 30 years, but only came here to die for their sins….not to warn them, show and teach them the only Way out of hell. Earth is hell and people keep doing things that keep them trapped in hell cuz they didn’t listen to what jesus was trying to tell them/warn them about. Gotta love free will.
Show the faces of these people there could be more victims is this news station involved somehow that why they protect tbeir identity the law should investigate the news people also
They aren't juveniles show their pics
They are little the judge doesn't want to show the pictures
People steal a purse and their pictures are shown, but these people stole thousands of dollars and their pictures are blocked.
White collar crime man
People like this gives respectable contractors a bad name!
SHOW THEIR FACE

But the headline title said "1 Million"....where's all that?

That's great but I saw nothing about 1 million dollars posted in your headline on this story.
BS
ok because I was thinking that yall was racist and only like to show mug shots when they are of colored people.
O yea if they were black or latino there pictures would've been up😂
They are white american who scammed them
There weren't photos available yet, they're everywhere now
LMAO, what is the FBI doing, send the IRS
Interstate Fraud
I hope these people get their money back!!!

Sounds like a bigger problem may have started ☠️
Lord help that is heart breaking i sure want to see these people get their money back. .god bless you all ❤
Why r y'all so picky about WHOSE pictures you show? Stop it already!
The agenda is to normalize the rainbow community ,, and they can’t do that if the rainbow community are the lawbreakers
Don’t be an idiot. They are wanted… there’s no mugshots yet.
They only show white people.
Why you a goofy yo
When you are smart enough to make a generous income but not smart enough to understand when someone is trying to rip you off.
Stupid people tend to fail upwards in this society.
Having a degree doesn't necessarily mean you're intelligent.
No pictures of the scammers???! How convenient.
If the scammers were Indian origin their pictures would’ve been plastered everywhere.
Why no pictures of suspects
WHERE WOULD THEY GET THEIR POCS FROM?
@@diyboomboxesintexas2805when you get arrested your mugshot is usually uploaded to the jails inmate database online for anyone to access.
They'll show the face of every other criminal and juveniles all over the TV! Why not show this?
Cause they are white
Maybe they weren’t lying
There’s a restaurant in Vegas that sells a hamburger 🍔
called the “ heart attack “ . LoL 😂 🤣😂
“Editor's Note: No jail booking photos were included in this story because at the time of our report, no arrests had been made, and the suspects do not have any available previous booking photos.”
Stop trusting these contractors . And show there faces there grown .

Don't lay anything upfront. Ask for 2 I.Ds and a car registration. Also ask for reference and real proof of work and not pictures
The amount of money in your headline is incorrect. Please fix it.
Usual suspects. No picture they trusted him because he is yt.
And you’re protecting their identity why?
maybe they should outlaw all those gambling commercials, like gambling is so great and so fun to lose everything you own
How do people like this get these jobs and then the good contractors get whatever mess they have to clean up. It’s sad
No real pictures? They have the complexion for the protection…
Classic construction scam. The only thing that’s even worse is if you pay them half they do some of the work and then ask for the rest of the money and then disappear or say they need $2000 more to finish the work.
I have never been asked to pay anything upfront but I do get the best when the job is finished
It all depends on the company. My company always gets 50% down and 50% on completion. I've never had any issues and all my clients are happy when we are done. One bad apple really does ruin it for the rest of us.
The headline here says 1 million dollars....what's going on with KPRC
Whats the construction company NAME?
Man I’m still shocked about $30k for a. Covered patio.
😮😮 God blessed them with a businesses and willing clients, and they gambled it away!? And now they've gambled away their freedom too. They had it all and fumbled big time. Why couldn't they be content with what they had?

People are so naive! Hire a licensed bonded company. Do you homework .
Why does not show the faces? Privileged usual suspects!
Could you show there faces so nobody ever hires them again no reason you show the victims but not the criminals.
Show their faces the fake news half the problem

People are stupid for hiring contractors instead of the direct workers.
There in the Halllllll of Shame!
$11.2k is not 40% of 30k
When you hire the cheapest contractor. U are the cheapest around...
The sad part is they will get a slap on the wrist. And restitution that they will never pay back.
Lies the news lies and people lie
Pretty simple job idk why he wouldnt do it make some good profit
Gullible people......buyers beware of con men.
Aleck and Andrea Miller of AM2 have been arrested
If he gambled and won I wonder what he would have done…
