            I contracted Freemen contracting for foundation repair. Everything was fine till it came to cleanup in the basement and putting my retaining wall back as it was. The main blocks make a sharp turn, (originally a sweeping curve) to straight. Second was the caps. Those were done incorrectly as well, pieced in with irregular pieces. I made attempts via email and pictures identifying what the deficiencies were. They said they would correct the ones on the wall. Approximately 2 months plus went by and heard nothing from them. Reading the other complaints time is no big deal to him. So I made the cuts myself and completed the caps. He did however drop caps off when I made the complaint to him, weeks after. I could not correct the main blocks. I would have to pull all of that portion of wall out to correct it. Too much for me. This week they contacted me via phone. Then email for receipt of $1800 per contract. I told them I had completed that portion. I wanted $500 off for having to wait so long and for doing the work myself. They replied witn$250 off at first, then $300. My $500 was “unacceptable”. AlsoI spent hours in the basement cleaning the residual dirt from the piering portion of the job. I also at that time told them of my displeasure of the clean up. They took a video and said it was clean, “what would you like us to do?” I’m still working on that clean up. This portion of the contracted work was not completed. Why should I pay for something that was not done correctly? One photo is of the caps I did. Also one is after cleaning the floor in the basement.
