Handyman accused of ripping off clients and using other tradies' images
Kia ora neighbours, a West Auckland handyman has allegedly left at least five homeowners out of pocket to the tune of thousands of dollars and used photographs of other tradies’ work to drum up business.
A number of homeowners claim they were ripped off by Keith George of KG Property Maintenance, who also goes by Keith Elliott.
One business owner claims the handyman used photographs from one of his landscaping jobs and passed it off as his own work. George denies the allegations.
Vincent Chand and his wife Leila, both 68-year-olds from Glen Eden, said they found George on Builderscrack, a website used to find trusted builders and contacted him to do repairs to their garage.
