Down payment for a roofer who doesn't show up?

Questioner

I contacted a roofer for a leak in the roof. One of his employees came to assess the situation and a deposit was made to buy lead for the repair. After a week, the employee returned to carry out the repair, only without lead. So an emergency repair was carried out, which did not fix the leak. It is now impossible to get in touch with this company, they do not respond to anything. Now I would like to receive my deposit back, is this possible?

Good evening, Annoying situation you are in. If a contractor does not comply, you can reclaim the money. However, this requires a number of actions to be taken (notice of default, etc.) in order to successfully reclaim the down payment (possibly through the court). If repayment is still not forthcoming, the contractor must be summoned. The process must be carried out accurately. Feel free to contact us to discuss the possibilities. Gr, Mr. Mr. S.
