  I contacted **** for exterior trim repair & paint in early Spring 2022 for rental house. He texted me May 9th that he looked at the house May 5th & he would send an estimate. May 22 he sent an estimate via email. The estimate included a timeline: start May 26 & completing May 30th. It stated weather can change the starting date or delay the duration. The contract required a 50% deposit due upon acceptance of estimate. June 1, I sent a text that the contract and check were mailed.We continued text messages. We were trying to coordinate with window work being done by another contractor. On May 13th I texted **** that we were ready for him to start. May 19th he texted with possible start times and said we still can be there within the next 2/3 weeks. Text May 22nd Im shooting to start that project on Thursdayfinished by Memorial Day if weather cooperates May 26th He texted rain in forecast so held off. We continued texting messages about paint color, rot, and weather issues through the summer. Sept 7th I texted asking Whats happening with Front Street?

  The customer has a signed contract with me and knew I was delayed in scheduling due to lack of workers and than decided shed sign and start a new contract without negotiating our current one. She voided the contract and per terms and conditons is not refunded the deposit. She should of reached out before choosing another contractor and negotiated our contract.

  FAQ

  To BBB,
  I would appreciate  **** providing a copy of the contract he is referring to as all I have in my records is an estimate. The estimate has deadlines for the work but does not confine me to working only with him. Below are the details of the estimate I have that are relevant to timelines.

  Planning on starting project for May 26th and completing it by May 30, 2022. *Please note that weather conditions can change the starting project date or delay the duration of the project.

  Given that the work was never done, I would like my deposit returned. Please note that **** texted me Nov 7th 2022  that he would return the deposit of $900.

  thank you,
