I received this letter from a law firm on behalf of the first contractor, “Restoration Contracting, Inc.” that American family brought to my home to do repairs after the fire He is requesting the full amount of his bill in which most of his work had to be redone because it was not done correctly in which American family is aware of and approved Being that I have all the emails, photos, and inspection reports I feel he is not due any payment for the items that needed to be re-doneThen by him not sealing up my second story we had the additional water damage which should also be deducted from his amount as wellI am also going to get quotes for the scratched up walls in my master bedroom due to his carpet installation which should also be decuted from his bill as well as the poor roofing install that he did The new contractor had to replace the roofing on the back of my garage but I did not have him replace the front due to improper installation To have to tar up a brand new roof is unacceptable The new contactor was walking up the valley and he had nails come up right through the new shingles due to them not being nailed down correctlyAlso having to replace step flashing that was not installed correctly as well as putting gutter apron on that was not done Also in one area he never put any on and nailed the gutter back on without any apron on it and the shingle’s where below the gutter height above the roofing material This too may have caused some of the water damage that we had during the rain storm in which we had the additional damageBy doing this the shingles will not be covered by the manufactures warranty We are hoping that some of them will seal down after we have some warm days but with this time of year it maybe something that we hope will happen in the spring Also the cost he is charging for the window was a window that was not the same size as well as being a vinyl window in which we had a wood and aluminum which is called out on your original scope of work The window that he installed is a $window from menards and to be charged hundreds of dollars for this is wrongThen for having to replace tires on my vehicle due to the contactor leaving nails and other items on my driveway During the period that he was performing work at my residence We had flat tires in which one of them could not be repaired and had to be replaced
I was forced to have my lawyer send a letter because MrMecikalski would not return calls or respond to e-mailsOn 7/21/and 7/28/I sent e-mails letting him know I would work with him on the dollar amount owed to meEven with Wisconsin’s right to cure law I was not given the opportunity to address his concerns, but I’m willing to work with him on the amountI also never saw any of the engineer reports or a scope of work that had to be redone
