    Hi....I think david & julie are just making sure I dot my eyes and cross my t's. I believe that a legal letter would be more difficult to ignore.

    If he was following his contract he should only have £900 left to pay on the £3000 job. Instead he chose the remain with our terms and go for keeping back £1500.....Ummmm, when it suits him ey, This could be his downfall i think.

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    Thx Softus....the first reassuring news weve had. Ultimately, I suspect that this guys antics could mean our business winds up.....loss of earnings for a month is going to devastate us and persuing will also be as costly if we lose. But hey, when you look it that way.....were already in the...

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    sorry, was struggling understanding your note. But yes, I will keep it friendly with one hand and pay a visit to the solicitor and the HSE with the other hand. The landlord asked to meet up with me tomorrow to discuss his contract. But I already told him that his contract was not agreed by...

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    Whats upsetting im supposed to provide a support service for tradesmen but how can I do that if I cant put this straight. Landlord accountability is pretty atrocious. Short of finding all the landlord associations and checking if he is on their list! I doubt he is anyway. I going to write...

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    I not happy at all as the landlord has tampered with nearly every piece of work my husband has done. He asked us to add copper pipe onto lead pipe in bathroom and reroute. I told him he should get it removed. We would not add copper to it. He serviced the gas boiler whilst my husband was...

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    There are 2 signatories required on ours....Mine, which was presigned and dated that day, my husband dropped it round for him to sign it....whilst he was there he asked my husband to sign his, which he did and the landlord signed it too. So technically his would be the latter, but it is not time...

    Lanlord contract gone pearshaped.

    Sorry about the link. Already called FairTrades. Legal guy says the law will look at it from when the last contract was signed. The amusing thing is they were both signed the same day. He asked me to fax all the contracts, quotes & invoices relating to it. So fingers crossed.
