Texas Pride Exteriors, LLC

The deck required, and I was specific up front, special repairs. After working on the deck for several days, he came to the conclusion that repairing the deck would cost more than initially bid for and I agreed to that. No work had been started on the exterior wood trim.  I expressed that there was no difference shown in the work that required the additional funding, and that I would not have approved it, had the challenges been properly communicated, he became angry and said he already had more into the job than he estimated.  He stated that he quoted this part of the estimate low knowing that the total job was larger.  That was never communicated to me until he said that to me. 

He left the job that day without communication with all of his equipment and tools.  The construction trash was left and the job was not completed.  He had not even started on the rest of the project. When I called him, he said he didn't think he could make me happy. So I said we could part ways and that I would still pay the additional amount he quoted for the deck.  After subtracting out the 50% down plus the additional owed, an amount of  $750 was due back to me for the deposit for the exterior wood trim work.  I stated that that was the amount owed to him and he agreed to come back the following morning to complete the dog ramp and haul off the trash.  He did not return.  I called and left two voicemails.  I did not hear back.  So I left a voicemail and sent an email and written letter through USPS stating verbatim what I said in the voicemail asking for the funds owed to me.  Also stating that if he needed more time to communicate that to me.  There has been no response as of this date, almost one month later.
