Job abandonment by Eddie Sanchez, San Antonio
We hired Eddie Sanchez of Peppercorn Construction and Stone Work (San Antonio, TX) to upgrade our kitchen in December of 2010. We were quoted $10,967 for the job which was to take one month to complete. At the end of January, work stopped through March, at which time Eddie came back and worked for 6 half days. In June, he returned to complete the job only to ask for the remaining balance due to him to be provided immediately. We had previously agreed through a written contract that the remaining balance would be provided once the job was completed. Eddie took two cabinet doors and said he would return when the hinges he ordered arrived. It is now almost January 2012 and we haven't heard from him. We emailed him, left voice messages, text messages. We even mailed him letters, including certified demand letters which come back as refused and unanswered. We investigated his license HR920550 and found that it is under his wife's maiden name, Ruth Espinoza, which is highly suspicious. Upon trying to locate Mr. Sanchez, we discovered several different addresses for him, with different zip codes that do not match the addressed provided. Do not under any circumstances hire Eddie Sanchez to do any type of work for you.
