To make a very long story shorter, I got a estimite of $900 lower than everyone else I priced. "that old saying you get what you pay for" well in this case I got more than I bargained for.
OKay, so the $900 was for a 3 day tile and drywall a bathroom. Well 7 days later he says he is done. Drywall tape is showing through the tape in the corners in hangin off the wall and tile looks horrific. Tiles popped up. Grout has big holes in it. Tiles over lapping, just horrible work.
The last day of the job he now wants $1800 for this work. I just laughed. I had already given him $500. So he still had a few hours of work left to do, and i had to go to work (3rd shift) So We agreed on $1100 and the work would be right when he left that night. I told my wife to write him a check for $600 when he was done.
