    Would like to get our money back from a downpayment made for a project with Heritage Carpentry. Sept 6, 2024 made a 50% downpayment for a project, with no update from sept to Dec, we’ve decided to cancel the project and called them up last Jan 6, 2025. Contractor said will be refunding the deposit and would be calling me by the end of the day which he did not. Made several calls but no answer on that week. Jan 13, got an email that he will be returning the materials to be used for the project and will be refunding the deposit once the materials have been returned which he did not. Last Jan 16, went to their current address which is 8*** ********** *** *** ***** *** ***. And was able to talk to the guy I have been emailing back and forth and he said that I will be getting the refund the next day Jan 17 around 3-4pm. No call no update, gave him another email on that day. Now he replied today Jan 21 stating that it is not a priority right now which he changed his story from refunding the deposit to not being able to since it is not a priority. It has been 2weeks and we also need access to our money since we have other plans instead. I have emails and the receipt of the deposit here with me if ever you need them.

    As a company if we were to decide to not do the job after a deposit was taken it is our obligation to return the deposit.  When a customer cancels a job after a deposit was sent that is a different story, that deposit goes to man hours put into work on the job and guarantees that when material and hours are applied to the job that there is a commitment there.  That being said, as we stated in the last email that was sent by the company, we are going to refund the deposit when the monies become available to do so.  We made several attempts to arrange to send the deposit back unfortunately we have been unable to.  So as soon as the money is available to be refunded it will be.

     Better Business Bureau:

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********* If only he told me that right away I would have understood. But he kept saying about refunding the deposit several times and so I was expecting it. Now I’m willing to wait but maybe if I don’t hear anything from him around late in the month of May then I would have to take it to ***** ****** court I guess, what do you think?
