[QUOTE="procastinator, post: 989206, member: 60435"] Hi [USER=33317]@AliGage[/USER] , thanks for responding. I haven't come across anyone bar you till date who is advocating going down the small claims court. I would like to get your perspective on this. I have a quotation from a couple of traders which along with new tiles will cost us around 10k. The small claims court [URL="https://www.gov.uk/make-court-claim-for-money/court-fees"]Make a court claim for money - https://www.gov.uk/make-court-claim-for-money/court-fees[/URL] is £455 to bring you up to date. As per people there will be costs to be paid by myself for any surveys, mediation etc as he might not agree to come to the table. I have already got a report done by a registered trader. The issue I have is that there is no contract, or vat receipt, the trader isn't registered to a traders body. All I have is the chat of money requested and paid to the tiler, his company name registered to the companies house. I brought him the material and tiles, and as per him its my responsibility as I didn't supply the primer. He just did the work of setting the tiles. Now currently I have him agreeing to clear and redo the tiles while I provide the tiles. If I do put a small claim against them, and was able to get a decision in my favour - can they turn around show the accounts of being in loss as most vat registered businesses do and pay me a measly £50/£100 a month. That's what I have been told could happen. This being my first running in with law I am not sure what to do. Ideally I would claim but will it be worth it. [/QUOTE]
