Description

There was a contract made with Mark Pentecost about repairing the siding on my garage where it was struck by a driver without insurance coverage. On 4/4/25, I gave him a check for $200.00 to purchase the needed material. For several months he communicated to me that the siding was wrong/had not come/arrived, and he was busy with other work. He cashed the check the same day I wrote it. I have telephoned him throughout the past 8 months and his voicemail was not set up, texted him multiple times with little to no response. This exploitation extends to my daughter who gave you $1,000 cash to repair a place on her roof an damage to some siding. I am reporting this to hopefully prevent this from happening to others.
