It is hard for anyone not in the game there in CA to know what’s fair. The man hours @ $15/h seems very fair to me, in fact it seems ridiculously low. The other charges are harder to gage because they include a lot of mysterious cost like equipment and horse feed

Sadly with just about any contractor you almost have to be there 24/7 and baby sit the whole project.

I’ve had my share of battles with them, won a few lost a few.

Have you looked at your contract for any kind of quality clause or acceptable tolerance gibberish?

Know any lawyers? Have you considered other bids from the competition?

From the pictures it appears that the construction is far from complete. I’m wondering why it’s so complicated to square it at this stage?
