Had something eerily close happen during a patio extension job earlier this spring. Communication was great—until it wasn’t. I turned to https://angies-list.pissedconsumer.com/review.html and saw I wasn’t alone. That gave me the push to try one last strategy: I followed up with Angie’s List support, mentioned prior contact, and politely flagged the job as incomplete. Within hours, the contractor finally messaged me back claiming he’d “missed the thread” due to workload. Not ideal, but it moved things forward. If someone disappears mid-project, raising a flag through official support can sometimes bring them out of hiding.
