The owner is a nice guy, but being nice doesn't mean the work is good or on time.

So sorry to hear....that has to be very stressful. By any chance does your home back up to St. Charles? If so, I've seen that project struggle along for months....Hope things get better for you. Lack of supervision can definitely snowball into the disappointment you described. At a point you just want them off your property...
