I received a quote for home remodel on July 11, 2023 for $13797.58 (see attached) and accepted that. Matthew W**** started the remodel September 8 and was given $5500 down payment. The job was supposed to be finished in 2-3 weeks. On September 15, Matthew got another $5000 payment. I needed to go on a business trip for a week starting October 2. While I was away, Matthew “finished” the job on October 3 and requested a final payment from my wife for over $10000. My wife was shocked, so she put up some fight. But she is also handicapped and home-alone, so she wrote out a check for $10000. I received a receipt for these payments on October 4 – and a new invoice after that (see attached). The invoice on October 4th included an additional $3067 to “Cut floor joist to lower into floor for the shower pan.” I never requested this and don’t understand why he did this. “Install shower pan and waterproof. Build and install shower curb and waterproof. Install tile on shower floor and build curb for shower door.” All of that was part of the original quote. The invoice also included an additional $3500 for materials. At no point between September 8 and October 4 did Matthew W**** say that we were going to go over the quoted materials budget or that the cost for labor would anything but what was quoted. Moving on from being overcharged and on to quality of work. Holes in drywall with electric wires filled with expanding foam and covered with mud. Vanity top not cut to correct size. No slope on the shower floor. Shower trim piece left dangling. Gas line for the old range was to be removed, so new electric range does not slide to the wall. The power line for the range is not secured to the joists. Breakers installed imbalanced (see pictures). I texted Matthew with two of the complaints on October 7. He replied back a few hours later “OK, Ill stop by and get another coat of mud on it.” I have not heard from him since.
