Additional business information
The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved. We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven. If the matter is being appealed, it will be noted below.
On December 14, 2016 the Pennsylvania Attorney General's Bureau of Consumer Protection (BCP) filed a lawsuit against this company and its President, Shawn Gerety, alleging violations of Pennsylvania's Unfair Trade Practices and Consumer Protection Law (CPL) and the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act (HIPCA). The BCP alleged that the company entered into contracts with consumers for home improvement projects; accepted payment, but failed to start and/or complete work in a reasonable amount of time; and failed to cancel contracts and issue refunds. The BCP further alleged that the company failed to pay subcontractors for work performed and the purchase of materials, causing consumers to have to pay the subcontractors a second time, increasing the price of work promised by the company.
The BCP seeks a permanent injunction to prohibit further violations of the law, restitution for consumers, costs of investigation, and civil penalties. For more information on this matter, contact the BCP by calling 717-787-3391, or check here.
