AG Yost Investigates Local Contractor for Shoddy Work and Swindling Thousands
There is an investigation underway by the Ohio Attorney General‘s office involving a local contractor who has made life a living hell for a Lucasville homeowner.
A company called Whitmore’s Home Improvement is at the center of this investigation.
One of Whitmore’s victims contacted SCDN and provided pictures of the work they paid nearly $23,000 to have completed. The work was far from satisfactory, with unfinished electrical components, poorly painted walls, and the drywall dust and debris destroying a furnace unit.
