Unfinished job

Mr Ndova quoted me R5000 to replace the kerbstones on my pavement and to tar the pavement. He requested 50% deposit (R2750) upfront which I paid. A day later than scheduled, he arrived and brought 3 workers to demolish the old kerbstones. The workers then left leaving all the rubble in the street. I called and called asking for this to be removed before nightfall. Nothing happened. I never saw him again. After many phone calls he finally sent the same 3 workers with new stones & they took the rubble.. The new kerbs were not cemented in, they were simply put in place using the earth from the road where they had removed the old ones. The workers said they would be coming to tar the next day. That was 4 days ago. He doesn't reply to our email & he has made many false promises - both on email and on SMS. I now have no alternative but to find another contractor to finish the job and pay double. We told him in one telephone call & in an email that as far as we were concerned we have been scammed & that we would be taking the matter to the press. This obviously did not concern him as he has R2750 and has no intention of fulfilling his contract. Be careful of this company.
