If he's an acquaintance and given you were reluctant to snag his work whilst it was ongoing then maybe you owe it to him to put on some big boy panties and get him back on site to explain in person why you're not satisfied and offer him at least a fair opportunity to make it right. Also tell him that you think the job is unsalvageable without starting again from scratch and as it stands that's exactly what you're considering via an alternative contractor ......but maybe he's got some rabbits he can pull out of hats.
Dude! Have actually read any of my posts? Give them another read.

I HAVE spoke to him, several times and for a final time over the phone to discuss exactly why we weren’t happy after sending all of the 70 pics above.

He definitely does not have to skill to put it right. So perhaps you could put on your sarcastic bellend pants and give me some more of your advice?

Unbelievably bad...........and if you’ve got nothing in writing, then your going to have problems.

Rip out and start again is the ONLY way forward.

Nothing in writing from who? Problems for us in what way? I didn’t sign any contract with him and only have his quote which does not have any terms and conditions on.

Did you get any other quotes prior to giving this ‘tradesman’ the go ahead?

Was his quote just a text with a price?

It’s a pity you didn’t use that sharp tongue of yours that you use freely on here a lot earlier on the numpty that has put you in this situation. Remember all members on here give their advice and experience for free and as such are entitled to an opinion. I don’t believe for one second that a man as savvy and intelligent as yourself didn’t realise a lot earlier in the works that it was not acceptable and should have been stopped, don’t bring your frustrations onto the wrong people, use it on the person who has done this to you.

Maybe but the bloke clearly hasn’t read 90% of what I’ve written. It’s not particularly fun for me dealing with this situation.

I get that and can sympathise with what you’re going through, we are trying to help though, text can so easily be misconstrued. I genuinely don’t feel like Marvo was being nasty. Anyway, keep us posted.
