Is $2,000 to replace siding and add flashing on dormers a fair price?

Project Details

I just had a new roof done. My signed quote included a $2,000 line item for replacing siding and adding flashing on dormers, as the contractor initially stated I didn't have flashing. However, after they started the job, I was informed that flashing was already present and this work was not needed or performed. I am now asking for the $2,000 back, but the contractor is refusing, claiming the overall price was fair. I believe I should not have to pay for work that was not done and am considering legal action.

Quote Details

This quote option was for replacing siding and adding flashing on dormers. The contractor initially stated that flashing was needed. However, during the project, the contractor found existing flashing and informed the homeowner that the work was not necessary and therefore not performed. Despite the work not being completed, the contractor is refusing to refund the $2,000 for this line item, claiming the total price for the roof job was fair. - Scope: Replace siding and add flashing on dormers- Initial Assessment: Contractor stated flashing was needed- Actual Work: No siding was replaced, and no flashing was added as existing flashing was found- Status: Work was not performed- Dispute: Contractor is refusing to refund the $2,000 for the unperformed work
