| on September 10th I hired an electrician to put a generator hook up on my breaker box. They came promptly and installed the 30amp connection, but they never installed the transfer switch. I called 3 or 4 times over the following 2 weeks for them to finish the job, but I kept getting the excuse that the transfer switch was on order. They also told me I don't pay until the job is complete. At this point they have done work and installed hardware and I haven't paid a dime. I got tired of calling them so I stopped and left it up to them to get in touch with me. Fast forward to today, I have heard nothing from the electrician, but I still need the job completed. Am I wrong to call another electrician to finish the job? What about the work the first electrician did, but hasn't been paid for? |
| Call them and advise them that the work has remained incomplete for over 1 1/2 months and you now consider their work to date completed and that you will hire another contractor to complete the transfer switch installation. They can bill you for the work which has been completed. Don't get talked into giving them more time - or you'll be back here in 3 weeks posting the same thing. Its time to move on. |
