I went and bid a trim out for a 4000 sq. ft. house and got the job. The guy I met with was the owner/GC and that was the last time I would ever see him again. He told me if I had any problems or needed anything then his right hand man, Mr. X, would take care of it and I needed to call him. No problem, I started the job and came really close to finishing. I noticed on the 2nd day of the trim out that the panel covers were missing, and I knew I had over looked that and that it was not in my bid for me to buy 2 new covers. So I called Mr. X and told him that the owner would have to buy 2 new covers ( the last electrical contractor took them with him when he pulled off the job, guess he was tired of these guys bs) and he told me "oh NO, the owner said he gave you money for those and that you said you would buy them". Well that was a lie. He also told me that he wanted a light added in a closet. I said no problem, $90.00. He said "oh NO, the owner said you 2 discussed that and you said that was part of your bid". That was a lie. They only owe me another $1200.00 for the job, I have already cleared $1000.00 on the job. Should I cut my losses and tell these liars to hire someone else or do they have any legal action they could take if I don't finish the job? I guess you can tell from all my ranting that Im fed up with these 2 guys.
