I am posting this information in-order to warn all potential customers of Affordable Hardscapes in Denver Colorado. My husband and I hired them to do a stamped patio and fire pit. We went under contract with them on 5/29/09 and are still dealing with a CRACKED incomplete patio. They moved some sprinkler heads and have yet to replace with new ones so we are watering by hand. They left a mess of concrete littering my yard which they said they would clean daily. Well that was a joke, my husband and I cleaned it up ourselves. We had to put back fill dirt around the patio ourselves so as not to see the unfinished edge of the patio and so the dirt under the patio would not undermine due to erosion. Oh, did I mention the rest of the mess left on the side of my house (concrete forms, buckets, wood and plastic). He agreed to do some back fill work but has not done that either. The fire pit is about 50% complete. We have contacted him several times to get the job done but he yells at us (even uses profanity if you can believe that), walks off the job when we try to ask questions, and even hangs up the phone on us if we do get a hold of him. He says he is busy with other jobs and will get to it when he can. I guess we should have known better than to pay as you go, but that's what we did. Now we only owe him about $700 more and will probably never see him finish the work or fix the 3 CRACKS that appeared 4 days after the concrete was poured. Oh we also have a 2 FOOT PRINTS in the concrete too. BEWARE!!! USE THIS SELF PROCLAIMED 20+ YEARS IN THE BUSINESS CONCRETE CONTRACTOR AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

We tried to contact him yesterday 7/18 but are still getting the run-around as to when he will finish the job, if ever. In the mean time I have submitted a complaint with the Denver Better Business Bureau.

Also we hed 2 concrete contractors check out his work to see what it would take to fix his mess. They noticed more cracks, more footprints, more shoddy craftsmanship and explained all the things this guy did wrong. Looks like at least a $5, 000 repair job.

Again, hire this contractor at your own risk!

The Better Business complaint was a waste of time athough we did get his rating lowered from a B+ to a B. So now we have submitted a small claim in jefferson county for $6, 500 but are unable to locate this scum-bag to serve him the papers. If anyone has any information on owner eddie farnsworth or his accomplice kristi kemper farnsworths whereabouts or how to find either one please let me know.
additionally, since posting this complaint i have been contacted by two other customers of his with similar complaints. So again, do not use this guy. if you do, you'll be sorry just like me.
