Default Roofing contractor, MAJOR screw up

Its too bad you didn't look at the shingles(if they were onsite) while
the tear off was taking place. My guess would be you could get a
little bit of money back from the contractor but I doubt he is gonna
tear off thats shingles and put other ones on. Ask for an
adjustment..or better yet ask him WHAT HE CAN DO FOR YOU TO REMEDY THE
PROBLEM



My neighbour across the street had his roof done last year. Just as they
were finishing up the job the contractor himself realized they had installed
the wrong tiles. My neighbour came home to see his new roof with the wrong
color/type singles. The contractor was waiting for him, said he'd be back
the next day to tear off the wrongs one and install the correct ones, which
he did. Needless to say, that contractor got lots of new work in our
neighbourhood.

yeserday, but I was away at work today when they put the comp shingles

The wrong color shingles though. Definitely NOT what I ordered.

What are my realistic options in dealing with the contractor? Is there a
"industry standard" for such screw-ups?

Any thoughts or advice? Thanks a heap,
