Is $36,000 to whole-house siding replacement with tyvek housewrap a fair price?
Project Details
The contractor substituted specified Tyvek housewrap with Hardie, Everbilt, and Grip-rite brands without consent, claiming they were equivalent. The project has been delayed, and the crew also punctured the refrigerant copper lines twice during installation. The homeowner is seeking a monetary credit rather than a redo due to lack of trust and upcoming travel.
