This seems to be standard practice (I've suffered the same, rightly withheld money and paid for someone else to complete o/s work in the end). Why do some builders think they can pull this on us?Chrishazle wrote: »Whatever you do, make sure you're completely happy before parting with the final payment. Years ago I had problems with the builder on our kitchen refurb, told them in writing what still remained outstanding, returned their final invoice and referred them to my previous letter, they did not complete the work so I did not pay the final £3k and, after a bit of a fight (as we'd taken care of the outstanding items) they wrote off the amount and cancelled the invoice!Value-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!
