After a small problem with the estimator the workmen arrived on timely and on schedule. They then proceeded to explain that they could not perform a portion of the contract due to conditions that were fully apparent and explained to the estimator. They said they could only complete the work in the attic area after I paid them additionally to evacuate the old insulation. They proceeded to install insulation in the cathedral ceiling and then left saying they could return after the old insulation was removed. After contacting the manufacturer's representative I found out that they were in fact willing to complete the project as originally estimated but they then lied to me about having a conversation with the same rep in explanation of there willingness to complete. Following this apparent lie and the apparent bait and switch scheme they had attempted and very poor workmanship, I was unwilling to allow them to return. Fired.
Description of Work: Installed expanding foam insulation in a cathedral ceiling area and attic.
