This man is the worst of the worst. We knew him as Largo Sheds. Whenever he gets too many bad reviews and/or the BBB lowers his rating he simply changes his company name & starts over. The work he did here was supposed to take 1 week and after 6 months we still had not got our tiny shed. It was the wrong size, it was built illegally on top of a deck without supports. The door was the wrong size and opened the wrong way and he broke the frame while installing it and just left it like that. The windows were installed wrong and leaked. He did not want to install tyvek and when we insisted, he installed it wrong. He installed the siding wrong. He built the roof wrong with wood so thin & untreated it began to sway inwards almost immediately. He failed to put tar paper on the roof under the shingles and when we insisted, he tried to do it only on the side facing our house. He did not put enough nails in the shingles & the shingles started to cup, before he was even off site. He didn't trim the shingles properly if at all. He failed to install a soffit and did not spray foam so rain, snow and bees & other critters got in. He used old bent & dented pieces of aluminum from another site on the fascia. He stood up on our lawn furniture instead of using a ladder and broke them. He destroyed our 4 year old deck and destroyed the door to our other shed. He left our handset to the shed in pieces out under the snow all winter and claimed he couldn't find it. He left our 2 packages of nails & screws opened and out under the snow all winter & rusting. He shattered several of our solar lights on our railing, on our deck & broke the railing. He destroyed our newly landscaped lawn and left construction debris all over our yard & our neighbors laneway. (Where he had no permission to be even using.) He left his autistic, non verbal son alone in his truck while he worked out of site. He made excuse after excuse, after excuse. Then they left our back door open, in January. He had no business opening our back door. This was our dog room. The freezing temperatures he let into our home, killed our newborn puppies. They froze to death. He blamed all of the problems including the death of the puppies on his helper. The walkway he had built to attach the shed to our home was not only illegal but it collapsed. Before it collapsed though, you could see daylight through the walls. Water pooled between the vapour barrier & insulation. Mold was forming. We had to tear the remains off our house (after the partial collapse) and hire somebody to remove it. We had to hire somebody to remove the shed from our deck. Murray killed 2 of our fruit trees that we had just planted a few years earlier and were just starting to bear fruit. He dented our brand new PVC fence & PVC gate. Murray was supposed to get building permits but he did not. When we insisted he provide them to us, he brought out incomplete forms that he had not taken to the City although he claimed he had taken them to the city. The diagrams on the permits were not measured properly & illegale forms. Our best advice would be not to hire this man. Do your homework. He has at least 3 other companies with poor ratings. Largo was an F rating from the BBB and he switched his company name to Ottawa Shed Source while he was still coming out to our site. He never reimbursed us for any of the damages he caused.
