Who is in the right?

Questioner

Got in touch with an entrepreneur via Facebook about a staircase. The entrepreneur comes by to measure the staircase. We are enthusiastic. We agreed on the price of the staircase. However, we would still receive a specification about the bars of the staircase and the staircase itself in a quote. That same day I passed on my good email. Never received a quote. The entrepreneur was aware that it had to be placed the first week AFTER the summer holidays due to other work by our contractor. In the meantime, because we did not hear anything more, we contacted the gentleman, but he indicated that he did not have a clear idea of ​​what exactly he had agreed with us, this is also recorded on the telephone. The gentleman indicated that he would come back to it. Not anymore. Now the entrepreneur has ordered the staircase and is holding us in default because we indicate that we went into business with someone else after his negligence.

Legally speaking, there is a framework agreement in which the content would still be recorded. The entrepreneur was too late to call back, which caused you to run out of time. For that reason, you could terminate the purchase and construction agreement with a date prior to the agreed time at which the work would take place. I can help you with this so that the argument also makes sense legally.
