So, how do we deal with when the head honcho does the repair but does it as cheap as possible
eg
1.painting which starts to peel after a couple of years,
When we complained about it, he says oh well you get what you paid for. Maybe they may come back and fix it if you ask them nicely.
2. lifting concrete panels which should be replaced because of the deep cracks allowing water to penetrate and go through to our foundations. The head honcho says lets just grind back the concrete so it isnt a trip hazard and not worry about the deep cracks? Do I need to get a building inspector who will give instructions as to what really should be done, but incur a cost which is about the same as just paying to replace the panel ourselves.
