Why do people keep paying contractors in advance? WHY?!


i’m doing a six figure renovation and this is the only contractor i’ve had an issue with. it was a material deposit. in hindsight yea i’m an idiot but dude came to my house we talked about the job picked out materials and i cut him the check



Materials should be paid for upon delivery.

If you paid with a check and he did no work, you can file a police report for theft.

That’s a damn fine grass; green as can be in the summer, not too much mowing, restricts weeds because it is so dense, and goes dormant in the winter.

Many of us have been through this in one form or another.
I once had a guy do a job of removing some azaleas bushes for $125 that I had been quoted $200 form another yard man. After the bushes were removed I gave him $75 to go get some mulch and I haven't seen him since.

I think a lot of people are buying sheds right now with their Trump bucks.

You fricked up by paying via check. You have no recourse. Find him, and get some satisfaction. Just make sure you have back up, because you sound like a pussy.
