• Breach of contract: you hired a contractor to remodel your kitchen, but they never finished remodeling it. 

• Bad workmanship: the new tile flooring your contractor recently installed is uneven. Now you are stuck with paying for a whole new set of tiles and a second contractor to fix the first contractor’s work. 

• Property damage: your contractor installed a new kitchen sink, but they damaged your stainless steel refrigerator.

A demand letter is a letter that outlines a set of requests you want the contractor to perform. For example, if the contractor improperly worked on your home and you want them to fix the defective work or refund you, make this request in the demand letter. A demand letter also serves as notice to the contractor that if they don’t meet your demands you intend to sue them in small claims court. 

Some small claims courts require you to ask the party you are suing for payment before suing. For example, in California small claims court, you are required to demand payment before suing someone in small claims court. A demand letter can be used to fulfill this requirement. However, the most important reason to send a demand letter to a contractor is so you can settle your case outside of court without incurring court costs.

The Better Business Bureau (“BBB”) accepts complaints from consumers directed towards some contractors. The Better Business Bureau serves as an advocate for consumers by forwarding complaints to the contractor in hopes for a response. Although the BBB cannot force a contractor to comply with requests, many contractors take the BBB seriously as your review will stay on the BBB website and it will affect their reputation.

Another way to file a complaint against a contractor is to sue the contractor in small claims court. In small claims court, a judge decides whether you or the contractor are in the right.

If you have a problem with a contractor, you may want to file a complaint with the government agency in your state that regulates contractors.

2. Other states don’t, (or they do have a specific agency but they don’t handle contractor complaints) if your state’s regulating agency does not oversee contractor complaints), you may still be able to file a consumer complaint with your state’s attorney general’s office. 

3. In some states, both the contractor-specific agency and the attorney general can accept consumer complaints against contractors. Below is a guide to help you determine how to file a complaint in your state.
