You just need to pay the invoice and I can get the guys back to do the roof
It has been a year now since the end of defect period that's where I got the idea that you were not going to pay.
If I am wrong why then did you not do as we asked.
This can be resolved and I can help but you need to do your bit
as well.
I am back next week and will look into the statement and see what
can be done.
Possibly a further statement agreeing that the other works done by yourself and others was up to a good standard in my view.
Regards
Tony
P.s
I did thank you for the referral, re Eggerton.

Woweeee - and that coming after your disloyal and ungrateful recent hatchet job on me! You signed it without a
thought for its consequences on me!
Suppose you got same from me re: Egerton out of the blue - how would you feel?
I only spoke with Derek a few weeks ago and Eddie certainly knows we were waiting for dry weather -
What’s up? Not like you Tony at all- No way did I ever give you, Eddie or Derek the slightest indication I wasn’t going to pay - where did that idea come from? Your new pal, Mrs Hillgarth?
I think we’d best meet up for a drink, Sir - before this all gets out of hand... Paul

The defects period was 6 months
As per the JCT agreement.
We did not receive a snagging list until December therefore you were already in breach of contract. As you know I sent Eddie along to do the works. You should have paid the invoice at that time. You then told us that the solar reflective to the roof was failing. As the defects liability had elapsed some 6 months earlier we were under no obligation to attend to it. However we offered to carry out the works in the spring, provided that you settle the invoice. This did not happen therefore it was obvious that you had no intention of paying.
Prove me wrong and pay the invoice now.

Dear Mr. White -
Thank you for email and Retention Inv.
Through no fault of AR Lawrence, we have been unable to finalise a few snagging items needing attention - hence I will, if I may, await a convenient time to finally meet and sort which I regret will not be before mid/late October due to various reasons beyond my immediate control - all will then be finalised and final payments made.
In the meantime, please accept my apologies. Paul Brown-Constable
