While I agree with the advice to do due diligence in hiring any contractor, one of the "schemes" I have seen in my neighborhood is that a contractor will come into a new neighborhood and do a fantastic job on a house. Neighbors see the work and hire the contractor to do their home. The subsequent work never mets the standard of the first job. Bad reviews seem to contradict earlier good reviews and subsequent prospective clients are confused. Then the contractor moves on to the next new neighborhoods and the sequence continues.
