Jody Moeggenberg of Gaylord, MI responded to a request I placed with Powell & Sons/Networx for roof replacement on a barn. He introduced himself as “Hello this is Jody with Fresh Coast Exteriors”. Before calling him I verified the company name and felt I was dealing with a legitimate company and not a fraudulent con artist. Jody bid the job for roof including “TWO FULL DAYS OF CLEANUP WITH MY TEAM OF 5 PEOPLE”. Once we agreed on a price he kept making excuses as to why he couldn’t email me a Contract (I live out of state). Long story short 6 months later, I have the original old roof, his “team” took off with scrap metal and he spent 1.5 days cleaning up with his wife and two adolescent children. He spent the $3,000 I paid him and NO ROOF. The 30 Ton dumpster he said he needed was expensive and unnecessary since GFL weighed it. I heard every excuse known to man as to why he wasn’t working — everyone he knew was either sick or injured or the weather was bad. Once I began to suspect he was a thief I called Fresh Coast and they said “He doesn’t work for us”. Major run around, loss of $, turns out a few days after he contacted me he formed LEGACY ROOFING & CONSTRUCTION LLC. Powell & Sons only apologized and told me to sue him and file a complaint with MI attorney general consumer protection. I absolutely will follow up with any and all State/County agencies to prevent this guy from stealing from others.
Claimed loss: $4,000
Desired outcome: Finish job per Contract deadline which was October 2023

Did you ever take action against him?
Yes Michigan Attorney General
Could you tell me how to contact them? Every lawyer I’ve spoken to about him has told me nothing can be done. He’s still doing work and screwing people over! And him being unlicensed doesn’t seem to matter either!
How can we stop fraudulent companies if it’s so hard to report and take action against them…
