The Indiana Attorney General’s Office filed a lawsuit today against a central Indiana home improvement contractor accused of collecting thousands and not performing the work.
The state filed the lawsuit in the Marion County Circuit Court against Exterior Home Concepts, Donald R. Mayes and Carrie A. Holmes seeking $90,500 in restitution for 10 victims, civil penalties and attorney fees.
According to the complaint, the company allegedly solicited consumers in their homes to contract the repair of their hail damaged roofs, collected payment and then avoided contact with the customers.. The Attorney General’s Office received 10 complaints over a five month period in 2011. In November, the company began notifying its customers that it had closed its doors for financial reasons.
Exterior Home Concepts is accused of violating the Deceptive Consumer Sales Act, Indiana Home Solicitation Sales Act and the Indiana Home Improvement Contracts Act.
