We are in a mess with a contractor we engaged based on a recommended list. We started talking to the person months (June) in advance of the time we needed the job done. There was an arranged meeting on a specific day after our arrival (Sept). We specifically asked that the work be done while we were on site which gave him two full weeks.
Obviously it didn't happen. We advanced him a substantial amount of money before we left and I don't see where it went.
It's been one excuse after another. The weather, health issues, transportation issues. He has all these jobs but can't find any helpers. Every week he says he's going to do the job, every time we ask for a status there's another postponement.
Now he wants an advance. I am thinking not. Any advice? [
