Hello, I hired a window company for a patio door and front window. They were to be made to my custom size. I paid $3k down. The company sent out a tech to do a measurement on 4/26/21 and no work has been done since. Installation has been cancelled on me twice on very short notice and I cant get to speak with a manager or get my calls returned. I have paperwork that states the installation will be scheduled when all of the product is available. Both install dates were cancelled because the door was not available yet. Would this be a breach of contract on the window companies part? If I'm able to get my down payment back from my credit card and tell this window company I want to cancel the project; can the window company place a lien on my home?...Read More

A Milwaukee handyman did small jobs at a residence and billed as each occured and was paid with each job. There were no other invoices for an outstanding debt. He was notified several of the items he "repaired" arent working and a request was made to repair, which he refused. He was told his services were no longer required. A short time later he sent a certified letter notice to file lien, which wasnt accepted or signed for. He sent a followup email saying the notice is considered served even if not signed for, stated he had an outstanding debt of over a thousand dollars due yet no invoice ever, and that he was filing the lien as his right as a contractor.. adding that if the debt is paid in the next month before the lien is filed he will give a$200 cash payment discount and the lien will go away. Is the refused certified mail notice valid, and how do you pre-emptively fight a false claim of money owed by an inept handyman/contractor in WI:? thank you...Read More

WisconsinConstruction ContractNotice of Termination
We are on a commercial job. The GC sends us a Construction Change Directive. We provide a quote for the additional work but they will not approve the price, they demand the work to be done and only after that will they discuss price. There is a contract clause that seems to give them the right to demand we continue working. This has happened a number of times in the past and we never are able to get more than a fraction of our fair price....Read More
