If they don't repay him,Small Claims is an easy option.

What do you think ???

He needs it fixed NOW.

You should have an emergency number that is answered 24-7 for major issues such as this. I would be on the SOB phone every second. If they said they would call back I would call then in two minutes and say I have not heard anything.

Yes Fred,
That is a viable option and it will stand up in court. Especially here in Texas if there is an elderly or children in the home. This kind of crap is the reason builders have bad names.

What really burns my a$$ is it is the big builders that do this sort of stuff and the smaller ones pay the price for it. never ever have a volume builder build your home folks this is the type of service you get! This is not an isolated case by any means.


Joe,
There is also a little known clause in Texas that says if, in this very type of situation you may go to a hotel and present the builder with a bill. I would be there RIGHT NOW and screaming every second. It is way too damn hot to not have A/C right now.

Keep in touch.
