Exquisite Crafts’ Johan Geldenhuys now Marengo Stone cc

Johan Geldenhuys has taken full payment for a job that he as a director of Exquisite Crafts took on board with his old company, and then defaulted on a written workmanship guarantee, and then continued with his lies at Marengo Stone cc where he pretended not to be responsible for this job (albeit having the job pictures advertised on his website), and finally not paying up the compensation money owed that he offered for me [the client] not going to court.
