Good afternoon, Ken. This is Mike Parsons. We met this morning at my house and Mac and there. I just had a quick
question. Being that you only need to see the outlets and stuff, do you think that I can go ahead with my insulation
because I have a spray foam insulation that's going into the walls? Expandable spray foam instead of fiberglass bats.
So I was tending to. I had them tentatively coming out this week, but if really all you need to see are the outlets,
want to say I can go ahead and get those guys started. But I wanted to just make sure with you, I didn't want to have
to tear something back out after you when you came back out. So if you could give me a call back at your
convenience. 774-368-0837. Thanks, Ken.

Mr. Elliott, I'm not sure what's going on here. When you were at my house last, this is Mike Parsons on McNamara.
When you were at my house last, I made it crystal clear as to what I needed to do, and I've done that. And now
you've come out here and you failed me again. You're nitpicking because I'm not a licensed contractor and I'm filing
a complaint with the building department. This is fucking bullshit. Pardon my French, but you're set because I left
you a voicemail. You're upset I'm not a licensed contractor, and you're nitpicking. I have electricians who deal with
you on a regular basis and they say you are a nitpicker. You make them do things that aren't up to code, that there's
just stuff that you require on your own personal basis. And I made sure, like I said, that this was perfectly set up the
way you wanted to. And now you failed me again. I'm filing a complaint. I'm not happy with how you do things. You
are a nitpicker and you're punishing me because I'm not licensed contractor and you're punishing my in laws. They
can't move in, they have no place to live and you're pushing me around because of some stupid wires. They aren't
even connected to anything yet. I don't know what the problem is. I'm irate and I apologize that I'm screaming and
yelling at you right now, but this is ridiculous. It's beyond ridiculous.

Hi, Ken, it's Mike Parsons over at 57 McNamara Rd. in Yarmouth. I believe I'm ready. This time we fixed all the
receptacles and I had asked if there was anything else besides the receptacles you were interested in and he said no.
So I believe we are ready. If you want to give me a call, we'll set a time. Be great. 774-368-0837 Thanks.

I've left several messages with Ken looking for help and he has yet to return any calls. Russ calls him
once and he calls him right back. He doesn't like that I didn't hire a contractor.
Thanks for the response.

Good Afternoon,
I reside at 57 Mcnamara rd and am finishing off the basement for my in laws to live in.Mr Elliot has made it known
to me that he doesn't like when homeowners do electrical themselves and because I am allowed to I have had two
licensed electricians helping me. The first time he was out the electricians had the wiring rolled up and tucked into
the boxes.Ken didn't like that.He wanted them out,stripped and spliced.He failed us the first time.Ok fine.We
stripped and spliced the wires as he asked,which makes no sense to me or the electricians because they've never
had to do this before.They strip and splice when adding the recepticles.
I made sure the second time we had them good to go and he failed us again because we had two that didn't have
any wires going to them.We were not sure of the placement or if they were even going to be there.Ok fine.I made
sure before he left,I made him explain to me exactly what he's asking for and we did it.
Today he comes out and fails us again because the electrical wasn't there and the wires are now too long.We are
going to cut those shorter when we go to install the recepticles.

I have left him a few voicemails with questions and he never returns my call.My electrician is a family member that
deals with him at his job and he doesn't like him because of the personal things he wants done at the job sites that
have nothing to do with the actual work,it's just something that he wanted them to do.They've had to go above
him to get things approved.So he doesn't want to get involved and have it affect his day job.
I have had to put off the insulation guys twice,the floor guys once,the AC guys twice,all because Ken wants to be
difficult.
The pictures of the boxes I have attached are exactly how he said to do them.Now he wants them spliced together
as if they are hooked up to receptacles.I'm no electrician but I'm not splicing the black to the white.I have no idea
what he is talking about,nor do two licensed electricians who said"good luck"when they found out he was the
inspector.
I have two senior adults with no place to live and a project that has been on hold for a month or so because of Ken.
We feel he is being extra difficult because he wants to meet the electricians and he doesn't need to.I am the
homeowner,he deals with me.
Can you please explain what is wrong?This is a rough inspection.I made sure I knew exactly what he wanted and
2
we did.it.Yet he stills keeps failing us, at 80.00 a whack.

Hello, Ken. It's Mike with. I'm gonna set my company name. I'm sorry. It's Mike over at 57 McNamara Rd. in West
Yarmouth. I left you a voicemail on Monday. I'm looking to get a bill, a rough inspection done. You were out recently
and I'm ready to go. I was under the impression that when I call and leave a message, you guys are supposed to get
out to get back to me and get out here inspected within two days. I don't mean to be a pain in the butt, but I am
really trying to get this my mother-in-law and father in my in my house and I'm trying to do this fast as I possibly
can. So if you could please reach back out to me 774-368-0837. Thank you.
