OKLAHOMA CITY ( KFOR ) – A contractor at the center of a KFOR “Looking Out For You” from June still has not finished a $150,000 remodel of an OKC woman’s home that is a year and a half in the making.
“It’s just so tiring, he gets nothing done when he comes over and then he gives excuse after excuse,” said Theresa Forster.
Forster has lived in her home near NW 16th and Pennsylvania Avenue for years, but around last June she said she decided to get a plastic top to a pipe in her backyard.
She hired a contractor early last year to remodel her home. She said Claudio Ocasio had a contracting business at the time called Always Reliable Contracting LLC.
According to the Secretary of State’s website, the LLC has expired.
But KFOR’s story ran two months ago and featured Forster when she said she agreed to hire him and has paid over $151,000.
At that time, she said she had hardly heard from him and much of the work was unfinished along with much fo the work needing to be redone.
After the story, Forster said that he was upset and wanted her to tell KFOR to remove the story from the air.
