Self employed fitter problem
Hello all,
im after a bit of help/advice if possible. I知 self employed as a floor layer and I知 on a large residential new build job. I took on a fitter to help with the volume of work and was really good for the first couple of months, I had to keep an eye out but overall was ok.
I have since had to let him go as he had a list of snagging issues that he never wanted to attend to and he had laid vinyl wrong in three rooms when I was off work Ill, but to make things worse he had scratched and cut all the skirtings in two rooms whilst fitting. All of which I have pictures of and have told him that we are going to be charged.
he is still demanding his money and is starting to threaten for it now. I have been told damage and materials are going to cost around ｣1500 to fix/supply and I only owe him ｣500.
I don稚 know where I stand with this legally?
thanks
Dan
