Dec. 2. 2009, I was quoted $4,080.00 in cash, I told him I needed an invoice for the home renovation tax credit. $204.00 in GST was added. I paid $1,000.00 in cash deposit as requested. Quote included the replacement of the flashings on all 3 skylights which, was not done. Also, $600.00 extra for tarpaper if the plywood of the roof is not good. I told him that the house is only 17 years old with 25 year shingles and does not need tarpaper. Dec. 4. 2009, the shingles were removed and was told the tarpaper is needed. I went up on the roof and found the plywood to be good. All of a sudden the 15 year labour warranty was only good with the tarpaper installed. I agreed to a price of $500.00 extra for the tarpaper installed. Dec. 5. 2009, I went into the attic and found 1 exhaust fan not to be connected and helped fixing it. Dec. 6. 2009, I inspected the roof and found no skylight flashings replaced and that one light coloured brick wall of the house has a lot of tar marks from dumping the old shingles off the roof. Only the neighbours house was protected. The job was finished on Dec. 5. 2009 in the evening and the balance was requested in cash again. I gave him a cheque of $3,784.00 and was promised an invoice by internet. As of today I still don't have an invoice despite several calls and e-mail requests. No phone calls nor e-mails are being answered now.
Sincerely, H. Pollinger
