He had this guy come around to give us a quote for a fencing job between our house and the neighbour. He gave us a quote of $2100 and we accepted it. He came around, did half the colorbond frames only (if that) and said he'd finish the rest the following day. He never turned up.
We've already paid a $1000 deposit and he hasn't come back to finish the job. He's not returning or taking our phone calls either.
We contacted NSW Fair Trading and their automated response is 3-4 weeks until they get to our case.
My question is Fair Trading... what can they do in a situation like this? If he doesn't take our calls and doesn't take their calls and he has not office address listed, is there anything they can do?
The job I'm not too fussed about as he's already left all the colorbond frames behind as well as 10 bags of cement so the loss will probably only be $700 - but what can Fair Trading actually do to him?
