About to serve this contractor for work abandonment. Company I found to be hiring cheap subs, another contractor promising high end finish delivering on the same low par results as most builders today servicing areas like Beverly Hills or Brentwood. Was once a time where honorable contractor would throw the lowest bid in the trash, Drake Burt accepts them and hires them for your projects, beware!
