The tile contractor is stating that most of his work is within "industry standards". He loves to use that term. Nothing about it looks to be up to anything more than garbage standards to me. Just wanted a few opinions. Also, he's threatening a lien if not paid.
It's a guy I've used for a long time, and he's always been dead on perfect. Apparently, he subbed this to a crew who I've never seen before, and it turned out pretty bad I think. I know it's white tile and black grout, but I say it sucks. He's willing to do some "fixing", where he takes out a 2-3 tiles along the visible joint lines and lays them back. It doesn't make it "right", but it does minimize the problems. Not sure what I want to do.
Any thoughts? Is this in any way acceptable on any level? He's saying he will file a lien if we don't pay him, but it's going to cost more than we owe him to fix it correctly, and I don't really want to pay him anything. I say he'll be lucky if we don't sue him for the full cost of replacing plus our time and trouble.
