PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: Urgent Notice Regarding Ken Lewis and “Adobe Guys Tucson” Contract Operations

This public service announcement is issued to alert homeowners, property managers, and subcontractors who engaged in business with Ken Lewis (official name: Kenneth Rupert Lewis) or his operating entities, Adobe Guys Tucson and My Homeowner Handyman.

The Purpose of this Notice
The purpose of this announcement is to warn the public about widespread operational fraud and severe financial mismanagement discovered prior to Ken Lewis’ recent death in late May 2026. This notice is intended to assist other potentially affected parties in identifying unauthorized practices and securing their legal rights within the ongoing probate court actions.

Product Substitution Fraud Alert
Evidence indicates that for at least an eight-month period leading up to his passing, Ken Lewis systematically utilized an unauthorized, inferior, and significantly cheaper chemical product as a substitute for the Silox Adobe Water Repellent.

  • The Impact: Customers who paid premium rates for genuine Silox treatments instead received a lower-grade alternative without their knowledge or consent.
  • What to Do: If you had contract work performed by Ken Lewis during late 2025 or early 2026, you are strongly advised to inspect your property, review your invoices, and verify the structural integrity and authenticity of the materials applied to your project.

Financial Theft and Pending Litigation
In addition to customer deception, Ken Lewis engaged in substantial financial theft, withholding tens of thousands of dollars in hard-earned referral commissions and the unauthorized substitution of other authorized products for adobe repair and restoration.

A formal Notice of Claim has been filed on the Probate Court docket to pursue full legal redress from the Estate. A comprehensive, 65+ page Verified Complaint detailing civil conspiracy, fraud, and breach of contract is currently being advanced to hold the operation accountable.

Current Status and Legal Redress
Following Ken Lewis’ death, the Estate has entered probate under a new defense attorney, Suzanne Diaz. ((520) 867-4400; sdiaz@sdiazlaw.com. Representatives of the Estate have claimed insolvency and are reportedly liquidating remaining assets, including corporate work trucks.

If you are a customer, subcontractor, or creditor who was defrauded, denied payment, or subjected to unauthorized product substitutions by Lewis, you may be entitled to recovery. Because the probate court enforces strict statutory deadlines for claims against an estate, you must act immediately.

For information regarding the ongoing litigation or to share documentation that may assist in the fraud investigation, please contact Roy Spears, (520) 331-4004. Email: adobemastr@gmail.com
