Sometime in November 2003, my fiance and I hired a floor guy to intall wood floors in the dining room of our home. We did not draw a contract but agreed on what the price should be for materials and installation. The floor guy promised that it would be done long before thanksgiving, since we hired him on the 4th of Nov. Well that time came and went. All we ever got out of it were broken promises, e.g. I will be their first thing in the morning and he never shows. By christmas that same year I was completely fed up, since he has been paid in full. (My mistake) The last time I spoke with him I told him that I would have to persue this in small claims court--he told me to "go right ahead!" so I am in the process......court is in just a couple of days. Needless to say we installed the flooring our selves. Now I am looking for a refund of the materials and labor, since none of these agreements were met. On the check that we paid him with I noted that this was for materials and installation of wood flooring. Will any or all of this stand up in the court of law?
