 ...But I can’t sue yet as technically there hasn’t been breach of contract yet. Just a big fat likelihood of a breach. Hate this.

 

Quite. And many of us are wincing with you at the memory of our own battles .  You are in very good company.

In relation to the contract: 

  • Talk. Face to face
  • State the problem clearly, and briefly
  • Be clear about your end in mind
  • Document the arguments put, and  outcome (or lack of) achieved
  • Follow up on deliverables
  • Document everything and start  a time-line (for future reference)

In relation to the  kitchen

  • Ours is de-mountable  (IKEA's finest)
  • A decent chippy will be able to repurpose almost anything thats already in situ.

In relation to getting some sleep

  • Exercise
  • Post on BH for support.

Here, you are in very good company indeed.

I watched a video showing how the small claims mediation process works. The case in question involved a householder who sacked a builder 2/3 of the way through a job because she decided the builder would not finish on schedule and then she only offered to pay 1/3 of the total quoted job. She was not successful.

Good! Some people will use any excuse to stuff contractors

Thanks, really appreciate your and everyone else’s support. I had a video call with the poor one armed chap. Explained my concerns. We agreed an action plan, and a day later he’s already in breach of the action plan. I kicked up a fuss and then his wife reminded me that he only just out of hospital. We agreed another action plan with the deliverable that was due yesterday now due on Monday. I will update you all on Monday evening.
