I hired a contractor to re-glaze all the windows on my house, when he initially arrived he shot me a bid of $1000 for all the windows, I agreed and signed the document with my intials. He did not give me a copy of the contract until later. He gets 3/4 of the way through the job and says there's more windows than he thought and said he only agreed to re-glaze 9 of them.
Long story short the cops were called, he was asked to leave my property with his equipment, and something was put on file with the police department. This is when i get the contract, a modified version, he specifically added 9 to the contract after the fact. Although I can't prove it.
My expectations for his work were not met at all, I'm currently waiting on a city inspector to look at his work. That's the whole reason I went down this rabbit hole of even hiring someone. Do I even have a case ?
I had the expectation of a smooth transition from the glazing to the window, it looks terrible in my opinion and I don't think 1000 dollars is a justified price for the quality of work.
