Oh, so you have no way of knowing if he even replaced the tensioner.
I'd replace the tensioner and see if it solves your problems. Also, while that far in, replace the timing belt and water pump.

This exploded diagram may help, #12 is the "washer lookin thingy" referenced above. If that is not installed the belt will try to crawl off.

lol, that damn washer lookin thingy
Last time I changed my timing belt I got it all back together and I put away all the tools and guess what I forgot to put on and was laying on the ground... the damn washer lookin thingy! Luckily, since I had already removed the pulley that day it came right off and putting it on was a breeze... only thing I had to really redo was tensioning the drive belts, oh well.
