Claim against Credit Card under section 75

Hi,
We bought a new kitchen. Before they finished the kitchen the company went into liquidation. We have most of the kitchen but it still needs to be finished.
We are now concerned that other companies won't want to come to do the work as there are snags to sort out. We now have no warranty and no way of sourcing replacement doors which were painted doors.

We have claimed on section 75 and we know this is covered because we paid the deposit on the credit card but how much can we claim for. The lack of warranty and parts in particular is a real worry.

Are we entitled to just enough to finish the kitchen, an amount including compensation or the full amount?

Thanks,
Mike

    Section 75 will cover the part of the breach, in your case they will be liable for the snagging. You will also have future claims for any faults that may occur.

    How much of it had you paid? Did you pay the full amount?
