Hi all,
We were doing a self build house, and we got an electrician to provide labour only on the electrical installation. Over the duration of ten months, he did about 25% of the job. Over those ten months we constantly had to chase him and ring him to work. He then went off the radar, he wouldn't answer any of our calls or return me messages. We were left with no other alternative but to seek another electrician. We tried to contact him to tell him this, but again no answer. 15 months on, we have received a bill for €1300 for the work he did stating that if we do not pay he will take action.
Can anybody advise us on what rights we have with this issue. Do we have to pay him or not.
Thanks,
Dav
