SSmith is correct - once a job is done to your satisfaction (complete satisfaction, I might add) you should pay the vendor. That is the right and correct thing to do. As I read Chelsea24's post, Chelsea24 and company inspected the work while the vendor was on site, discovered a problem with the repairs which the vendor, on the spot, acknowledged. Ryan then stated he would return the next day to correct the unsatisfactory work. To me - JOB NOT COMPLETED YET SO DON'T PAY. Tomorrow, after he returns and makes it right, and they reinspect the repairs and are satisfied with the repairs, then pay the man! I'll bet a dollar to a donut hole that if they had worked it that way, Ryan would have returned the next day to complete the work and collect his money. Any takers on that bet?
