- Outline the Facts: Clearly detail the agreed-upon scope of work versus the defective or incomplete reality.
- Allege Breach of Contract: State precisely how the contractor failed to meet their contractual obligations (e.g., failure to perform in a workmanlike manner).
- Demand a "Cure": Insist on a specific resolutioneither fixing the defective work by a deadline, providing a refund, or both.
- Establish a Record: Create a critical piece of evidence showing you attempted to resolve the dispute before pursuing a lawsuit, a complaint to the licensing board, or a negative review.

FAQ
What is a "breach of contract" in this context?
It can be many things: using substandard materials, failing to complete the work by the agreed-upon date, creating a mess, or the final product not meeting industry standards of "workmanlike quality."
Should I let the original contractor attempt a repair?
In many jurisdictions, you must give the contractor a reasonable opportunity to "cure" their defective work. This letter formally initiates that process.
Will this letter help with a complaint to the contractor's licensing board?
Absolutely. State licensing boards often want to see that you have made a formal, written attempt to resolve the issue with the contractor directly before they will intervene. This letter is perfect for that.
The contractor I used was unlicensed. Will this still work?
Yes. Even without a formal written contract, you still have rights. The letter will be based on your verbal agreement, text messages, and the general legal standard of performance. A letter from an attorney can be especially intimidating to an unlicensed operator.
