Williams and Sons Excavating Ltd.

The building to the west of our property was condemned and slated for demolition in 2012. The demolition started Jan.9 of 2012 by [redacted] of Williams and Sons Excavating Ltd..In the course of the demolition our steel structured building was damaged. 11 sheets of metal are dented, paint missing and one sheet has a hole in the metal. At this date [redacted] operator of the backhoe assured me he would pay for the damages done by himself. I sent a bill to ** on Sept. 10,2013 in the amount of $5000.00 plus GST for the damages. Nov.12 2013 I received a letter from [redacted] advising me that he would not pay the invoice amount. [redacted] Nov.18.2013 we sent [redacted] a letter outlining the material needed and the specifications it would take to do the repairs and left it up to him. [redacted] I stated that if he could get the needed repairs done for under $5000.00 plus GST I would welcome him to do so. I gave [redacted] until March 30,2014 to have the work completed or to pay the invoice. I have a letter from [redacted] stating he does accept responsibility for the damages but to date there has been no response from him.Desired SettlementPay for the damagesBusiness Response [redacted] I have not denied responsibility, nor have I denied payment.I have simply asked for a couple estimates for the repairs that are required before I release payment[redacted]Williams and Sons Excavating LtdConsumer Response (The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.)[redacted] has had a bill for the amount of $5000.oo plus G.S.T. for the repairs dated Sept. 10 2013.He was not happy with that amount so we left it up to him to gather and install the materials needed to do the repairs. The specifications for the materials and labour were out lined to him in a letter dated November 18,2013.To date we have no correspondence in any form from [redacted].I feel if he was taking responsibility for the damage he did he would have contacted me to resolve the issue. At this point because no contact has been made by [redacted] to complete the repairs the outstanding invoice of Sept. 10,2013 stands and I expect payment of that amount so I can move forward on the repairs to my building.
