Our shady pool builder is really trying to pull one over on us now, I think.
We are contracted just for plaster/marcite, but we've decided to go with a Wet Edge product (Primera Stone). Thing is, there's only one Wet Edge installer in this area, and it's not something our PB offers. So we're going to have to just get a credit from them and go through the plasterer directly.
The issue is how much credit they're offering for not doing the plaster through them. There are a number of draws, the last few of which are for 15%, which is just over $4,500, and the contract states the last one is due at plaster. So I thought I might get some push back, they'd say we wouldn't get the full credit, but they're only offering like $1,500!
That seems completely ridiculous to me. No one, no where is getting plaster for that little, even a builder. Seems to me it should be like around $4k credit, shouldn't it?
I'm not sure where this is gonna go, but wanted to see what folks here thought, as everyone here has been so helpful with various issues.
(This is in addition to various shenanigans regarding the decking price - decided to go with brick instead of just the standard concrete, so we get a $1200 credit for that, which is fine. First said they'd do the brick for $12/sf, and now it's become $16.88/sf. She claims it's a complicated pattern, which I think is total BS, because a) we showed her from the very beginning and b) I honestly don't think it's that complicated - https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/55/a4/7f/55a47f6e7ce2b32e4509184b5b7b3923.jpg)
