      Enclosed is an Email that **** **** sent on May 29th,also a letter that was sent to us certified mail, and my response to her Email.

      As this shows we were supposed to work out something to take care of her claim, even though we felt that we were not 100% responsible for the sewer issue.  We were willing to work something out with her so that we would not have to put a claim in to our insurance. That was the plan until we notified her that she was responsible for monitoring the water as her pool had been plastered and was now getting filled. She badgered my Employee **** on a weekend and then after that interaction decided that she wasnt going to follow through with the plan that we had in place.

      At that point she demanded the $ **** payment and basically told us she would not pay for anything more on the job and that if we were going to complete the job that we would owe her money. She knew all along that we would have to turn this claim into our insurance company due to the fact that it was a huge amount and also due to the fact that there would have to be an investigation to determine whether or not we were 100% responsible for the claimed damage.

      In her claim she also states that we did not provide a startup for the pool, which is also incorrect, this was done. As far as the electrical hook up she was never charged for that and if she was to hire someone to complete that the cost would have been considerably lower than her payment to us if we completed. It.

      She really left us no choice upon finishing the job by telling us she wasnt going to pay for anything else.

      Hopefully this information will provide you with what you needed from us.

      I am rejecting this response because:

      His response is irrelevant and without merit. But For the negligence of his demo crew, my sewer line was damaged and required repairs that cost $4,200.00  His company needs to take responsibility for that cost. Why there was never a claim turned in to his insurance company is still unknown   The RotoRooter repairs were paid on March 26, 2022  He was notified immediately of the damages and cost. It wasnt until a month later - the end of April, when the project was supposed to be completed, and not even close to being done, that I worried he would try to not pay. Thats when I sent the letter trying to entertain other options. Nothing was agreed upon.  Nevertheless, his company is still responsible for the damage, plain & simple, and he could have sent a claim to his insurance to have it investigated, but chose not to. I have two workers from the job, an invoice, photos, as well as the p-trap that was removed that prove his companys negligence. 
      I have also included the texts where ***** complains that I badgered his Employee ****. I think its obvious who was badgering whom. 
      The start-up *** have been completed after the letter sent, however, the pool tile above the skimmer remains incomplete and that invoice was paid on May 25, 2022.  No effort at all has been made to complete the work of the contract regardless of whether there was payment made.
