Our reroofing is essentially done but a few things are still missing: connecting to roof to the pool cage, replacing a drain pipe they damaged, tightening some fasters of the gutters they unscrewed / removed, etc. They also cracked a part of the driveway by overloading a dumpster.
During the re-roofing the contractor has lied to us on several accounts and is not trustworthy. They insist on payment in full before the will fix the last remaining issues. However, it seems quite clear they actually don't have the intention to do it.
What is the best way to proceed? So far, we made it clear well pay the remaining amount (20%) only when the project is completed.

Contractor licensed in tile and stone used hardy backer board instead of lath and concrete in contract for showers. He also worked outside of his license, and ruined walls ,baseboards,etc etc. bonding co, sent out contractor who contracts with cslb. He said the lumps on floor and inch gaps in grout didn’t meet industry standards. CSLB sent out own contractor. I took hammer to shower walls to prove hardybacker. Contractor fined for bathrooms. He appealed to attorney general. Hearing canceled as he paid his fines, but my award was dismissed as CSLB went back to him and he changed his mind saying hardyback board cost the same. I had showers redone reason why tile cracked was because tile was attached directly to paper, drained plugged and water pooled under tile. I submitted report and pictures to bonding company was CSLB said they were done and collect on bond. Bonding company is ignoring new evidence that the showers are defective saying by law they can’t pay. But this now has nothing to do with the material, but the quality of the job and CSLB didn’t see that. Can I sue the bonding company for the bond and then the contractor for the other damages in sm claims court? I’ll never recover all the losses that are about $35,000 but suing them separately could reward $20,000...Read More
Me and another person had an agreement on two houses. He couldn't come up with the money for the other one, so the 1st house is in his name.

Our agreement is he can't sell the 1st house he had to sale it back to me. He is not holding up to our agreement....Read More
I am a homeowner who made their first payment for a full basement remodel and new garage to the Hilikar Company on 1/27/2022 and to date, the only things they have done is some of the demo work. He wont commit to any dates and makes promises he doesn't keep. He doesn't return calls and texts. He doesn't show up when he says he will. We are afraid he will never move forward with our project and he has 50% of our payment. what recourse do we have?...Read More

Hello
We are researching information about Materialman’s Lien for project in Pennsylvania. I found this article about it, but PA state is not specified.
https://www.levelset.com/blog/materialmans-lien-overview-for-suppliers/
We are materials supplier, and we fabricate windows specifically for each project. Client can’t accept windows at the moment, and we are storing them in a warehouse since June 2022.
We would like to clarify regarding Lien option on specifically fabricated materials, what are the due dates and documents we would need to submit in case client will not accept our product.
Thank you!
