Urgently Seeking Reputable Contractor in Birmingham, AL – Duplex Rehab

Hello BP Community,

I’m posting on behalf of a friend who urgently needs help finding a reputable contractor in Birmingham, Alabama for a duplex rehab project.

Background:

  • My friend lives in Maine and purchased a duplex in Birmingham in June 2024. The property required substantial rehab.

  • He initially hired a contractor and paid $45,000 upfront. That contractor failed to complete the work and has since filed for bankruptcy.

  • Recently, we connected with another contractor who visited the site, reviewed the scope, and expressed interest in completing the job. We had promising conversations and agreed to proceed.

Current Situation:

  • The contractor insisted on purchasing materials from Home Depot himself and having my friend pay over the phone. We declined and explained we preferred in-person coordination.

  • To move things forward, my friend flew down to Birmingham and has remained on-site, ready to oversee the rehab through completion.

  • Since his arrival, the contractor has gone silent — not answering calls or responding to messages.

  • We now need a reliable and professional contractor to step in and help us salvage this project.

What We Have:

  • A clear Scope of Work is ready.

  • A standard contract agreement has been drafted.

  • My friend is physically present in Birmingham, prepared to coordinate and support the project through completion.

If you are a contractor or can personally refer someone reputable in Birmingham, we’d deeply appreciate your help. We are looking for a pro with experience in rehabs.

Please comment below or DM me directly. Time is of the essence, and we are ready to move forward immediately with the right team.

Thank you in advance,

  • Jeremy Anan
