BLADE CUTTERS

I contracted Blade Cutters to breakup sections of my concrete driveway and install paver blocks. Ken Hardesty contacted me after the paver material arrived at his business to schedule start of the work. He arranged to start the job on 3 separate days. I took off work each of these days. He did not show up any of the 3 days and I had to make repeated calls to his phone to find out why. The first two days he stated that another job was taking longer than he estimated and had no crew to start my job. On the third day, he gave me two excuses "My concrete saw is getting repaired" and "My truck won't start". On the third day, I advised him I was canceling the job and demand the money back that I had paid for the materials. I was concerned that if I allowed them to start, that the job would not be finished on any reasonable schedule. Ken Hardesty s only response was to point out the clause in the contract requiring customers to accept material ordered for the job. I arranged with another company to complete the work. I arranged with Blade Cutters to deliver the material on the day it was needed. They failed to make the delivery as scheduled. The contractor I hired to finish the job had to pick up the material. I paid an additional $900 over the price Blade Cutters quoted to get the job finished.
