Hired an insulation company to put foam insulation in my walls. The
installer had to drill holes in the outside of the house to put the foam
in. Long story short, he drilled 20 holes through the wall in one bedroom
all the way through, 15 holes thorough the bathroom wall popping off the
ceramic tiles on the inside walls, drilled through 4 side wall registers,
and one other place in the walls. They want to come fix it using the same
guy that messed it up. I am not comfortable with this response. I know
they tile will not be able to be matched as it is 50 years old. Can I
demand they retile the entire bathroom so the tile matches? Any ideas what
my legal rights are with this situation. Can I demand that they pay for a
competent company to make the repairs?

The one thing you might do to start is contact the state contractors
department. You might get some ideas of your options before contacting a
lawyer $$$$$. If they are willing to come out and do the repairs they are
omitting guilt, try and get something in writing. I would agree with you If
they are to incompetent to drill a simple whole in a wall I certainly would
not let them do any repairs. It also would make me wonder about the quality
of their work in the first place. I also would use a contractor of your
choice. It sounds like your in need of some not to simple repairs the wholes
in the registers can be a real nightmare. regardless of how old your tile is
that's not a factor.
Did you ever get a copy of his, License number, liability insurance and
workman's comp? It's amazing how many people never ask for any
