We feel so strongly about Craig Oliver, that even though he has been convicted...again...we still have him as our sales manager! Can you beleive that???

Mr. Oliver sounds like a real piece of work. But he had help.
If the law enforcement community in Virginia were awake, would Mr. Oliver have been able to steal from 58 homeowners? Ripping off that many people, before being stopped, suggests that Virginia is doing absolutely nothing to protect homeowners from being defrauded. What's amazing is that many of our contractors operate honestly when they obviously don't need to do that at all.

This story is amazing. This guy has been in and out of the slammer for over 30 years!! How can he keep doing this...and he has a wife? Roger is right. He should have been on a watchlist. He's famous!

Craig Oliver has been doing this for over 20 years. Been to jail and out again. Back to his same old tricks.
