Terrible experience. Ryan viewed the project and we agreed a price. The day before he was due to start he increased his price because he had miscalculated his materials (despite not providing a breakdown).
He completed half the job and then said he couldn’t finish the rest because I needed to hire a plasterer to do some work first (he neglected to mention before starting the job). He then demanded payment in full while promising he would be back to finish the job the following week. He’s since ignored my calls. Still waiting on the missing invoice he promised too, that's one for HMRC.

Hi Mohammed,
Shall we tell the truth here?
I priced for a single partitioned wall. You then tried adding to the job, to which I said yes, but it would be a separate job.
You then refused to pay me the accepted price until I came back to do another job.
