So, after *checks calendar* 5 months of stop and go progress on the two garages (one attached and one detached) I'm having built I got a visit from the siding subcontractor today. Apparently the general contractor has not payed him for my job or, at least, 3 other jobs. (The same goes for the other trades, apparently) Sooooo... unless he gets paid he's going to put a lien on my house.
This has been a 5 month adventure through the land of incompetence and inadequacy. They forgot one basic requirement, poured the footings wrong, got the wrong lumber (2x4 instead of 2x6), trimmed two doors in beige when my house and garage are gray, FORGOT A WINDOW, ran the electrical to the wrong side of my garage, didn't put a saddle in where the new attached garage met my second story, and were going to pour the floors and aprons in mid-January. Now, I've called them on everything and they haven't complained about fixing it (everything except the lumber was the general contractor's fault), but COME ON.
