Working for free ?

Think i have seen it all now !

Local self proclaimed " Tree Surgeon " quotes for tree removal and as per never turns up to do the job , Land owner gets a new quote from 2nd contractor and job is to be done this week coming , the first contractor is told his services are not required .

First contractor hires in a third contractor to remove the trees without consent , Land owner comes home and trees are gone .

First contractor contacts Land owner " i have done the job for free " .

So as it stands now the first contractor is refusing to pay the third contractor as he claims not to have been paid for the work by the Land owner .

Beyond me ?

That's a truly bizarre and convoluted set up. I like to keep things simple myself

Might just be too much rum, but I don't even understand this. Makes no sense at all. Can someone break it down into laymans terms please?

Why would the first contractor pay the third? Or did you mean the second one is refusing to pay the third?

Contractor 2 is a customer of mine , i repair his kit , all he is out is half hour quoting for the job

First contractor got contractor 3 do do the job so contractor 2 did not get the work , as the Client had informed contractor 1 he was not required he would not be able to charge for the work , Contractor 1 then subs the job to contractor 3 stating he is a bit busy to manage the job , contractor 3 is now stuffed as he had no contract with the land owner and contractor 1 was going to pay cash so no paper trail , Contractor 1 is now happy as none of his competitors have been paid for the job ... Contractor 3 is new to the game and has learned a hard lesson ..

Strange, why on earth is C1 entering a paid agreement with C3 knowingly without getting pay from the landowner? Seems the only looser will be C1!

Land owner is laughing it seems ......

C1 is refusing to pay C3 , C1 offered Cash to C3 when he was paid for the job , C3 had no idea C1 was never getting paid for the job .
