Tennessee :mad: What is the name of your state?tennessee
I hired a contractor to build an addition on to our home. Master bed/bath. Have a signed contract with no ending date. Contractor told me it would be approx.3 mos. Gave him initial payment to start work-(Foundation), 2nd payment was to come after framing was completed, all framing wasn't completed but my husband who is disabled-gave him payment. Roof went on & now I have a room w/ no electrical, sheetrock, opening into the existing home, no A/C, hot water heater etc.. Work started in May 2004- to this date Jan 2005 work is not completed, a sub contractor that was hired by my contractor (sheetrock & plumber)has not been paid although the sheetrock was delivered to the room. I cannot get in touch with the guy! Memphis Home Builders Assoc. has told me I have given him plenty of time to finish & make right- Builder who referred this contractor to me is at a loss-What are my options? Work has got to be finished soon-a portion of the roof where it meets the existing home has leaks & I am afraid it will seep into the walls & damage the exisitng room..Mold, mildew etc.-Please help!
