Illinois cracks down on home repair scammers

The Illinois attorney general sued five home repair companies he says took payments but did substandard work or none at all, at a cost of more than $167,000 to consumers.

The companies are:

  • C & P Development, Inc., and DM Realty & Building Inc. -- The AG's office received five complaints against these companies and its lawsuit alleges the company collected $100,000 for services either not performed or completed at a substandard level.

  • Paul Bunyon Tree Services, Inc. -- This company allegedly targeted neighborhoods hit hard by storms but never followed through on contracted services.

  • All Seasons Contracting, Inc. -- Severe storm areas were also targets of this company, which promised to do work covered by insurance, but did not follow through, the AG's office said.

  • AAA Bloomington Construction, AAA Bloomington Concrete Company and Bloomington Construction & Handyman Services -- These companies are the source of 11 complaints to the Attorney General's office for allegedly failing to perform or performing below standard when contracted for remodeling and roof repairs.

  • Rankin Backhoe & Septic System -- The lawsuit alleges Rankin in some cases failed to begin contracted work or never completed it once started. Six complaints were filed against the company.
