This forum is to ask and to respond  to questions pertaining to Florida 
Building Code so that we all learn from  each other and the experiences we have.
It is NOT intended to post  personal issues or vent out. However, since Mr. 
Ellis MISSTATED &  MISREPRESENTED MOST EVERYTHING, I feel compelled so put 
in your hands the  facts as follows:

1. Mr. Ellis stated in writing that he completed  and passed rough Electric 
and requested and got paid $20,000 for doing  so.
Few days later I was shocked to learn that rough  electric was disapproved 
with penalty as you see below: 

Inspections for Permit Number: 000 000 ELEC 00 - ELECTRICAL  PERMIT    

Inspection Type   Sched Date   Status    Results Date  
ELEC  ROUGH    09/18/09   DISAPPROVED WITH PENALTY   09/18/09  

2. Mr. Ellis had all  the time on earth to do his work but he provide one 
electrician and the work  done as described by others, is NOT to code and 
needs to be
redone as stated by electrical contractors who came to bid on the work and  
stated, verbatim, the following:

"1-All the mc cables need to  be re strapped right on the walls and the 
wood truss in all 15  

units.They are not done to code.

2-All the lights cr need to be pulled in and piped in all 15 units.  Note 
done yet. 

3-All phone pipes need to be re  done and mounted right and glued together 
in all 15 units. Not one  right.

4-All ac pipes need to be re done, glued  and re piped in all 15 units. Not 
done yet and what is done is not to  code.

5-All panels need to be flipped over and  new service wire pulled in to all 
15 units. Not done to  code.

6-All out side plugs need to be on house  panel not off of in unit panel in 
all 15 units. 

7-All cr need to be traced out so we know where they go and wired  right 
for all 15 units.

8- The garage units  need bigger service wire pulled to it. The current one 
is too small for a  car garage unit. 

9-All 15 units need the bath  room light and fan done right. They are not 
wired  right.

10-Pull strings need to be pulled in to  all a/c and telephone pipes in all 
15 units. Not done  yet.

11-Add plugs where need be to per code, not  a made up print in all 15 
units.

12-Add lights  and plugs up where Air handler units are as per code for all 
15 units.  

13-Fix the ground out at the service.  Done wrongly 100%.

14-All house panel wiring  need to be strapped and checked.

15- All work in  units need to be done right, what is done is poor 
workmanship  100%."

3. Mr. Ellis abandoned this project and stopped work since  September 
because we refused to sign a change order he requested for work  that is clearly 
stated in his 
proposal and is an integral  part of his scope of work.

4.  Mr. Ellis did not scheduled any  inspections and have not done hardly 
any work since September in spite of  repeated requests to do finish his work

5. Mr. Ellis refused to  provide 17 electric panel covers we paid him 
$10,000 to install.

6.  The hold is NOT on the permit held by Mr. Ellis. It is on the permit 
the  City issued to the new Electrical contractor we hired AFTER we fired Mr.  
Ellis.

7. We did NOT hire any mediators. The person Mr. Ellis  referred to is a 
personal friend of his who happened to have worked for us  and called me 
offering to resolve this as  
"Christian  brothers" which I welcomed. In fact we did agree to resolve the 
matter but  TWO days later, Mr. Ellis changed the agreement which I 
refused. 

8.  After waiting on Mr. Ellis for three months with NO work done and no  p
rogress, I gave up and fired him. Wouldn't ALL of you do the same when  
confronted with this   
unprofessional work and  fiasco???

9. The matter is being handled by DBPR and the legal  process and I feel 
sorry for wasting your time and boring all of you with  this trivial stuff Mr. 
Ellis brought on.
Therefore, I will  NOT write about it again because this is NOT the place 
for it.

Kind  regards,
Sam Nasser
