Hi, Does anyone know if it is illegal for a builder to ask for payment of a stage (fixings) when the floors, stairs, laundry, bathroom and kitchen cupboards are not in yet?
Our builder is saying that he is going to send us this invoice tomorrow, I have already told him that he still needs to finish jobs off... is there a legal body that can help or does anyone have any advice of what to do in a situation like this .. apart from refuse to pay?
The builder is trying to argue that he just wants to keep jobs moving and not hold things up.
