    In 2020, **** A. ************* III (a.k.a. Karlos) under the guise of his business KAS Remodeling & Handyman Services, LLC, contracted with us through email quotes to construct two decks at our home. While constructing the decks, ****** repeatedly proffered assurances to us that the decks were being adequately built to code. Furthermore, we reasonably relied on his professional expertise with respect to his supposedly adequate construction of the decks.Approximately three years later, on August 24, 2023, ****** filed a complaint with the City of Bothell Code Enforcement stating, My neighbor has built two decks without permits and I am sure they were not built to code. This complaint reported his own defective work to the city, indicating that he had personal knowledge that his work was defective for approximately three years, putting our family and guests safety at risk. When I confronted ****** about the complaint, he denied any knowledge of the same and attempted to discourage me from finding out who submitted it. Instead, ****** and his wife **** allowed me to suspect it was another neighbor. After receiving a copy of the complaint, I hired an independent deck inspector and five separate decking companies to identify and quote remedies for ******' defective work. According to the inspector and the decking companies, the issues identified in the deck inspection report were 100% avoidable because such issues are considered deck building basics every contractor should know. ****** has failed to respond to any of our numerous requests to settle this matter and provide his license, bond and insurance information. Instead, he came to our home and threatened me with physical harm, assuming because we hired an attorney. As a result, the court issued a protection order against him on March 11, 2024.
