QUALITY CONSTRUCTION

The brick work on the patio, walkway and ribbon drive has cement in the cracks so weeds would not grow. He power washed it after and the cement came up onto the bricks. It looks terrible, and he says it has never happened to him before. He tried using an acid treatment which did nothing. I have had another contractor come out and look at the work and they said they never would have done that. I currently owe him $2000 but he said he would take $500 off, but he ruined all my brickwork. He also put brick on a stoop and a walkway - that work is a little shoddy but I am accepting it. I have already paid $1500 by check, but he requested cash. Some of my grass was ruined. I had to clean up many pieces of cement on my lawn and on the grass. When he first started, he had a leaky hose on my outside spigot, that caused water to come into my basement. He was a contractor yet he was not using decent equipment, which damaged my home. After the power washing, many black spots appeared on my roof which were not there before, which he says are from nails, but it is a brand new roof. The stucco was the only acceptable work.
