    Date of Transaction: quote for deck construction work from ***** ******/ BrayStone Carpentry accepted on May 2, 2023. Total quote $13,800.00. Amount paid to business: requested 50% deposit ($6900.00) paid; receipt for deposit amount received May 7, 2023. Business committed to provide: He committed to renovating both our existing front and back decks (quote attached). Nature of dispute: work not completed. Front deck – only part of the cladding of the beam is completed; stairs partially completed; stair rail not installed. Back deck – handrail not installed; stairs not installed. He was on site working for total of 31.5 hours. He sent a text the evening of June 15 indicating he would have the project “all buttoned up tomorrow” and sent a signed 5-year warranty by email; he has not come to complete any work at this site since then. Did business try to resolve problem – No. We have tried repeatedly to get him to come complete the work. He has given excuse after excuse as to why he doesn’t show up, (screen shots of text messages available if needed). He continually reassures us he will be here but does not come. While he is saying he is injured and unable to work he is working on other projects. On July 18 we considered him to have abandoned the project; requested $1500.00 of our deposit back (deposit less retail cost of all materials used, materials and equipment left on site, and hours worked). He agreed to refund that amount and offered to drop by with cash. We requested e-transfer. He agreed and said he would do that when he got home on July 18. No refund money received. Since this happened, we have found 2 other individuals that this company has also taken money from and not provided contracted services for.
