Followup: Got an estimate on completion of job. Then called contractor a couple times without answer. Finally I left a message (7 days ago) saying, "maybe we just agree to call it off. You walk away and I pay someone else to finish. That way you get rid of a big problem (me)."

He called back and said give me 1 week and if I'm not done we can call it quits. Well they have made a concerted effort this week. They showed up Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. We are about 95% done. If they show up today they can actually be done.

Follow up to the followup - Guys (4) showed up today and worked from about 1:30 to 5:30. At this point everything is done except for them picking up some dirt and doing a little concrete repair work.

Our long national nightmare is over.

Good things sometimes come to those who push their contractors . Agree that it's time for a cold one! I recommend something from one of our good local microbreweries - Bold City or Intuition Ale Works. Robyn
