In march 2016, I've bought an apartment in Madrid and I’ve contacted Mike Alleg (Malik his real name) to do the entire reform of the flat. Its estimate of the reform was quite expensive for the Spanish market (1,000€/m² without the kitchen) but I decided to move forward and sign a contract with him stipulating that the entire reform will be over in June 2016.
In October, after 4 months of delay and lots of lies, he suddenly disappear without telling me anything. During a couple of weeks, I tried to contact him but his mobile was turned off and he was not answering to my chat nor my emails. On top of having abandoned the project he ran away with a very significant amount of cash that I paid him to order all the necessary material to complete this reform and which has never been delivered : Windows , wood floor, switches & plugs, part of the bathrooms fittings, bathrooms floors etc...
I’m now facing important delays and costs to order again the material which is missing and that I need to end the reform
Mike (Malik) Alleg is not part of any official college of Architect and hasn’t the necessary formation to handle such a full renovation project. He is behind several companies in Madrid like Haussmann75, lebon 1900 or Atelier HR.
If you want to avoid very bad surprises, don’t hire him
