My wife and I lost our home in the 2017 Napa wildfires. We chose to rebuild with Fultz Construction. It was a mistake.

1. Fultz admitted to writing a personal check to himself, from our insurance proceeds. Keep in mind, we paid this contractor on-time, in-full, and in good faith...with every songle draw payment to him.

2. This became a huge issue, when Fultz didn't pay our Concrete sub-contractor almost $37K. As a result, we received a Mechanic's Lien, filed with Napa County, against us.

3. In addition, our Fultz didn't pay our subs on-time, or at all. In fact, 13 out of 14 subs weren't paid timely, many 90 to 120+ days, until we PUSHED him. Several still haven't been paid at all!

4. In fact, our contractor said he had to take loans and even a second mortgage on his house to pay our sub-contractors. How is that acceptable? We paid him, On-time, In-full with every single payment.

5. Because of his money issues, our contractor had issues ordering items that we had already paid for. Our contractor claimed our shower and cabinet glass, our garage door and our bathroom tub were all back-ordered.
This was a lie...he never ordered these items because of money issues. We ended up ordering the glass and the shower door. In fact, he admitted to not ordering these items. Finally, after about 6 months delay, he said he "maxed-out" his credit cards to order the bathroom tub. Big delays because of his lies.

6. Our contractor failed to order the correct deck brackets...he ordered and installed non-galvanized brackets on pressure treated wood...a big mistake that resulted in the County red-flagging and not approving our final inspection.

He claimed he ordered the correct ones in April, but again, because of money issues, he never ordered them as he said he did. Then he ordered the wrong ones AGAIN!

These are all facts. There are other issues that I could write about, but I think anyone who reads this, homeowners or sub-contractors, can get a clear picture.
