Painting Company Cancellation: What Now?
Questioner
via werkspot we found a painting company for our new build house. We agreed on the following: Applying glass fibre and painting the interior walls. This appointment has been fixed for 2 months and is now being cancelled by the painting company a week before the delivery of the house, so also a week before the start of the work. This is due to personnel problems. Can this just happen? What obligations does the contractor have? We only have a few days to find a new company, where starting the work in the short term will be a problem and we will also end up paying a lot more. What can we recover from the painting company?Lawyer
I advise you to write to the company by registered mail and summon them to comply with the agreement. The painting company cannot cancel the agreement. You also immediately hold them liable for the damage you will suffer, namely the extra costs of giving an urgent order to another company. Have this other company explicitly include in the quote what the extra amount is as a result of the urgent order. You can then try to recover this amount as damages from the painting company.Neem de volgende stap
