Default Workmanship Question - Legal rights

On May 28, 8:39 am, "Old_Boat" wrote:
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?

They injected foam? I didn't know they still did that.

Just out of curiosity, what kind of siding do you have? Why didn't
they do it from the outside?

I suppose you didn't check to see if they were bonded. If so, you
could talk (or threaten to talk) to the bonding company.

I suppose you need to first allow him to try to fix it. But take lots
of pictures and video before they come back.
