A Kentucky license search turns up nothing for MC Construction or for Thaddeus Major (@thadmajor). Treat any bid this company hands a Richmond homeowner as a red flag.
Get My Richmond QuoteBuilding work done without a license fails in ways you cannot see. A drain glued wrong drips inside a wall for a year. A slab poured on soft dirt splits by spring. Wires get buried behind new drywall and no inspector ever looks at them. When the damage shows, there is no license for the state to pull, no bond to file against, and no board that has to hear you out. If a worker falls in your yard, the bill can land on your own insurance. That is the trade this company offers Richmond on everyday repair jobs.
Rentals near EKU turn over fast, and that hurry is what a scam feeds on. A landlord signs in May because the unit has to be ready in August. Cash goes out for materials. Then the calls stop, the unit sits torn apart, and the next crew charges more to undo the mess.

Have them put the Kentucky license number on the written Richmond bid. Look it up yourself with the state. Never hand over cash for a job that has not started.
Stop any further payments today. Hold on to every Richmond text, receipt, and job photo you still have. Then file a report with your state consumer protection office and your county.
Get the license number first, then look it up with the state yourself. A real contractor hands that number over in seconds and never rushes you.
