ColoradoI am a project manager. I was hired to find a gc, all subs and all supplies for basement remodeling.
Client decided to not pay anything above what I paid out and we lost 20,000.00 that we were really planning on when we got nixed from the job.
On a deadline of a baby due date we busted our tails to complete on time. The drywaller that was hired through another gc on the project (framer) , was paid in full and decided to go to the homeowner and say he was not. He ransomed the job for almost a month. So to be done in time,, we hired our team to go in a knock it out with us.. We bought all supplies and half way through he shows up. He talked bad about all of our work (that was not complete!!!) and the homeowner listened to him and not me. Not sure why. He told him that it all needed to come down, drywall and all. (He hung the drywall btw) HO heard he could finish faster and not only paid him AGAIN, but paid him 5000.00 to tear out everything we did. It only needed to be sanded and thats all he did.. He never removed anything!
HO said he'd take care of it, and we could go.
Mind blown.
I think my only option is to file a lein to be reimbersed. Is that correct?
I put in 3 months of work on this job. We did everything. We hired electrician, plumber, hvac, bathroom, carpet (which I canceled) framer, insulation and GC. I applied for and obtained permits, and met inspectors, with GC and was there for every thing that needed to be done. My team was there, my company was very much responsible for the successfully completed jobs.
We need to pay the people who werent paid in the process.
Also is there anyone who take payment out of what we win? We have lost everything.
Thank you
ColoradoI have 2 issues,
1 homeowner refuses to pay and threaten that if I pursue with Lien she would sue.
1 company we did subcontract work refuses to pay on 2 invoices, and now has come back with back charges on work that had already been paid and completed. Also threaten to go to Alabama Dept of Insurance.
ColoradoWe hired a general contractor to remodel do 2 bathrooms. After he said he was done we noticed issues with his work. He didn’t do what he was hired to do. The wall was not completely done the bathroom door was not hung properly and the shower didn’t drain properly. We brought these to his attention and he came out a couple more times and didn’t fix any of the issues he refused the redo the shower floor and only did half of the wall and didn’t touch the door. He once again said he was done with the project
There is more to the issues regarding tearing out the bathroom months before he starting the construction etc
We had to hire someone else to fix his mistakes and now he is putting a lien on the house for the final payment that we didn’t pay since he didn’t do the work properly as promised
