I’m sad to say we spent nearly 3 months communicating with Gueorgui, which ended in wasted cost, an extremely stressful situation for our family and a want to genuinely warn everyone about this contractors bad practice. Renovating our home, we had a privileged position to build a space specifically as a shower room. I contacted Gueorgui after seeing his work online with a view to seamlessly plaster the room and asked for advice and a cost for his best options. He responded with some initial information, we provided him detailed architect drawings, pictures and information on the room and he responded with a quote and advice on how to finish this room and the substrate required. We instructed our joiner and plumber to build this room to the exacting advice Gueorgui gave us, spending money and time ensuring this was just as advised. We even discussed colour finished over the phone and on email. Once the room was complete (1 month+ work) we arranged for Gueorgui to visit the property (we had asked him before but he declined stating it wasn’t sensible to visit the property before the room was built). We arrange a 10am appointment, at 23:00 the night before, Gueorgui emailed me with an ‘adjusted’ quote which was more than TWICE the initial price quoted claiming we needed a different finish than what he first advised. I called Gueorgui to try to understand what this change was about. He lectured me on how the room needed this different finish and he couldn’t possibly use the initial finish he quoted, completely missing the point that we followed his advice and built this room specifically to his guidance. Nothing had changed, it was a shower room with glass panel from day one. We couldn’t afford this price at all, so pleaded that he visit the property now it was built to give us some advice on how we could achieve an alternate finish nearer to the first quote. He refused to even visit the property on the basis that ‘every time he visits central London he gets a parking ticket’ and that he wouldn’t change his price even if he saw the room. My expecting wife, 2 year old and I were due to move in 3 weeks later and had planned this finish exactly to fit to this timescale (1 bathroom only!) - this has caused us unbelievable stress having to find an alternative finish closer to our budget. I believe Gueorgui is either incredibly naive, with no respect or acumen to understand clients investment and needs, or worse so this is a potential ‘trick’ that some people will fall for under pressure. I understand now what Gueorgui first quoted for wasn’t suitable for the room, but he held this information back from us until the very very last minute. I have read good reviews for this guy, leading us to call him in the first place but I stress you must avoid this contractor to avoid the upset and stress this has caused us.Moreexpand_more
