Service Provider Response
In response to Member ‘s complaint, one must wonder why someone would wait eighteen years to make such a complaint. Member contracted with me to reside his home, remodel his kitchen and build a simple garage behind his home. We completed the siding on the house and remodeled the kitchen per the written contract. Member wanted changes made after work was completed, i.e., deleting soffit over the cabinets, adding electric service to the garage, and changing the garage from a simple gable roof to an elaborate gambrel roof, which substantially increased the costs of the project. We also completed erecting the garage. After it was complete, he insisted I build a staircase to the attic which was contrary to city code. At the time, the code only allowed a ladder or folding ladder to access garage attics. It came to my attention that he wanted to create an illegal apartment above the garage for his son so that his mother in law could live in the house, as she was financing the project. It is not my practice to build contrary to any city code, so a staircase was never installed. My refusal to install the staircase and Member’s refusal to make scheduled payments caused me to withdraw from the project before its completion. I never filed a lawsuit against Member because I withdrew from the project prior to its completion and we both considered the matter settled. In addition, Member colluded with my carpenter to breach our contract so that the carpenter could complete the project as a “side job” at a lower price. I suspect the “friend” in his complaint was, in fact, that carpenter attempting to undermine my efforts to further his own agenda. In response to his unsubstantiated claim alleging that I had over one hundred lawsuits filed against me at the time, in over forty-six years of business, I have only had four lawsuits filed against me, all except one of which was resolved in my favor. The only things that I have hundreds of are letters of referral and praise for my quality of work and outstanding service and professionalism. I am willing to share those letters of recommendation with Member if he so desires. I have been in business since 1965 and am confident in the quality of my work and in my professionalism. In fact, I am the only contractor to my knowledge that provides his customers with a lifetime warranty on workmanship that extends to subsequent owners of the property. The situation with Member was merely an attempt on his part to breach our contract and to build an unlawful attic apartment, which I was unwilling to do.Other local Pros in your area
