Work done on this project was tough from the beginning, I was contacted by [redacted] who I have done work before on another project. She asked if I would be willing to help her remodel her master bathroom. I explained at the time that I really didn't have time to take on this project, But I did agree...
to help on project payment terms where on a Labor only process and a little different due to the fact that we didn't bill weekly. Her mom who was paying for remodel didn't want to have a lot of billings, Which didn't not bother me because we have done work for [redacted] before and had no issues getting paid. The project was pretty basic she had a standard shower that was tiled and wanted a tub/shower fiberglass unit. Once we demoed out drywall and shower unit we found that there was a leak in plumbing in hall bathroom with about 48" of mold growing in wall and floor. [redacted] is allergic to Mold so I went and bought a product that will trap in mold spores and applied over mold areas. At this point the project came to a stop and told [redacted] we need a lic Mold contractor to do the removal of the mold, which she did she had Service Master do the mold abatement. Now at this point [redacted] had all her belongings now that needed to be removed from rooms which we as a company helped when [redacted] asked me to. She moved everything upstairs, once mold abatement was completed we both assessed the damage we had drywall patches in master, master bath, hall bath, and both back bedrooms. [redacted] had a idea of finishes that she wanted for bathrooms I contacted a plumbing contractor for her that did the plumbing for her, my company did the demo clean up from house as well as demoed out the big deck in the back of the house and drained removed the Jacuzzi from back yard, cut trees back and vines that where growing on her home. As well as demoed out the stairs due to dry rot. After plumber finished in both hall bathroom and master bathroom as well as installed new washer/dryer box, I had a Drywall guy come in and drywall and texture for [redacted]. My company helped with picking up material and helped [redacted] with the ordering process. Met with [redacted] at different stores to help design and pick out and use vendors that I use often in hopes to help her with cost. So now [redacted]'s house became a complete house remodel. At this time she was staying at a beach condo but need to be out by May 25th I did everything in my power to meet or beat that dead line, I even had my guys help load pods with all her stuff that she moved upstairs for the mold construction. that now had to be walked down to the street and put in the pods . We also Connected and disconnected [redacted]'s washer and dryer 2-3 different times trying to help her to be able to do laundry on the weekends for her and her kids. The time came to paint, [redacted] had the colors that she wanted. She handed me the color sample cards which in turn I gave them to Sherman Williams who made the paint for [redacted], We picked paint up and delivered to project for [redacted] who was nervous because her mother was coming to town and [redacted] had done more on her home then she had told her. (I don't know this for a fact just what [redacted] told me) So we hurried up and started spraying the primer and ceiling paint. [redacted] and her mother came looked very shortly Her mother thanked me for all the work we had done and I explained the back deck issues we where going to have with the sliding door water proofing, and she left. The next day [redacted] shows up by this time we had painted almost all of down stairs she was terrified that the color was not right, and that it was wrong! I called vendor he came out with in 1 hour he agreed there was a issue with pain it was a little darker then sample and gave [redacted] ALL new paint which again we picked up and vendor delivered. At this point [redacted] made it clear that she was not paying for labor that was used to paint because it was wrong... I told her I will take up with vendor and that was the last conversation on the paint. The next issue came into the drywall mud for some reason it didn't adhere to the existing texture, I called drywall guy and he came and fixed spots that were of concern. Another issue came up with corners again this was a hand texture and smooth flat wall the corners, and in this instance were existing and like everything else just a hand texture finish. [redacted] was not happy with corners drywall guy came back again and replaced corners again no charge. At this point I felt I could not finish project with [redacted]. so on May 10th,2016 we had a talk at the house which I gave her all the contact to continue and finish her project, we finished cleaning back yard and picked up materials at home depot for her so she wouldn't be left with a mess. At that time I talked to her about the billing. and that I would only bill her for the work on the backyard and interior work aside from the painting. We both agree at that time that this was satisfactory and that I at that point had nothing more to do with her project. She gave me a hug and said: "Thank you for handling it this way". A few days later I received a text message telling me that I, or one of my guys had broke her washer glass window... I did not argue I schedule a repair company to go out and replace or fix. I started getting other text about drywall, I forwarded messages to drywall contact info because I had nothing to do with that cause. Dry wall guy gave her a price and when it came time to pay she wanted to use a credit card, dry wall guy did not take credit card so I again stepped in trying to be helpful to her. She paid me his total through credit card, and I in turn gave a check to drywall guy, which was for his bill, less taxes. The response I received from [redacted] is that she paid ME so its my problem... and have now continuously received numerous text message, harassing me and threatening me. She has yet to even pay for any of the work that was completed and agreed upon when we parted ways, she has yet to even attempt to contact me regarding payment.
