Provided by YP.comI bought a large foreclosure and entrusted Charles Macio owner of Marman Design and Construction. Biggest mistake I have ever made.
Charles Macio is not a licensed contractor. He has the show room and contract listing a fake license number to appear legit. He even states he is licensed and insured on his website. Do not fall for it. You can look up a license number by name or by the number. He doesn't have one. Legit contractors license numbers start with CGC, while his made up license start with GCG. Mind you, it is illegal to hire an unlicensed contractor.
He does terrible work. Literally everything he touched was not done right. Even simple things as removing tile he could not do right. There were huge potholes and thinset left throughout. He put in uneven tiles. Used the wrong grout throughout. Bought the cheapest materials to do the job to save himself money. Did not get a permit for anything because he couldn't as he is unlicensed. Did not do anything to code. Did not use licensed plumber or electrician. Mucked around with my fireplace and cut the wrong pipes endangering my whole family and my house. Lied a lot and denied a lot. Covered up a lot. I wish he would have just ran away with my money rather than doing anything, at least then I wouldn't have to re do everything and wonder what he has done behind walls I no longer have money to redo. I could go on and on, in fact there is a list many pages long of things done improperly and dangerously.
More subpar work have been revealed since hiring a real contractor. For example, he only put primer on kitchen cabinets he was supposed to finish and said it was done. He did a shower steam room and did not put up a moisture guard. Also did not tile the ceiling of the shower. On and on.
The point is, look into this guy really well and do not give him your money and most importantly do not let him touch your property. Even if you do not care about a license, he has no clue what he's doing
