My husband remodels for several investors. He hired a "friend" and his wife to help paint the inside of a house. But after a week, he noticed nothing was painted properly, they painted one room a different off white then he was told to do, and it took them 5 hours to tape off a door and paint it. They turned in a certain amount of hours resulting in over $400 worth of work they claimed they did. My husband told them he couldnt use them anymore and he told them to come collect their last pay of $150. This is all the hours they had worked. Instead of going to job sight to collect the money, they show up at my house several times banging on my door, demanding pay. Finally i called the police when they showed at 11pm when my kids were sleeping. They have gone onto fb slandering my husband, sending texts to my husband calling me a bitch because i would not answer the door. Mind you, no contract was signed. Now this morning, they are threatening a law suit and on their way to labor board. At this point, we arent sure what can be done. They still have not collected the $150 pay. I need some guidance on our legal rights. Thank you!
