Warren Enterprises Inc

Description of Work: Mr. Warren responded to a call from me concerning the removal of an existing wall and the construction of a new rock (bolder type) wall to replace the existing wall. The construction details were agreed upon and eventually spelled out in a written contract completed by Mr. Warren. The construction cost was also spelled out in the contract as were the various responsibilities of Mr. Warren and his company to complete the job as well as my responsibility (terms of payment) when the work was completed. After signing the contract I was immediately asked by Mr. Warren for a "draw" on the agreed upon price. I wrote Mr. Warren a check for 1/3 of the overall price so that he (as he put it) would have some working money to start the job. Mr. Warren and his helper, completed one portion of the wall in a satisfactory manner. The other portion of the wall was comprised of shoddy construction and not of the standard spelled out in the contract. When Mr. Warren was confronted about this less than "Workmanlike Manner" of construction as well as the various items in the contract that had been ignored and or neglected, Mr. Warren left the site and never returned. Immediately prior to his leaving the site I informed Mr. Warren that no more dispersements would take place until he corrected the deficiencies in his construction and the items spelled out in the contract were completed. Up until this point I had dispersed some $7,000.00 of the overall $10,000.00 agreed upon price and felt that this was more than enough to show my intent to honor the contract and only asked that Mr. Warren do the same. The next notification that I had concerning this contract or work completion was when a Deputy Sheriff arrived at my home some week or so later and I was served with a lawsuit claiming that I had refused to pay Mr. Warren for his work.
