GEORGE M, HOFFMAN and
CLAIRE M. HOFFMAN, Plaintiffs
v.
GLENN A. LAYSON, SR. And
LAYSON'S HOME IMPROVEMENTS, INC.
Defendants
No. 01-3704 - Civil
DEFENDANTS' ANSWER. NEW MATTER AND COUNTERCLAIM
1. Admitted.
2. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Glenn A. Layson, Sr. is an
adult individual. It is admitted that Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., is a corporation organized
and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, with its offices and principal
place of business at 440 Sheep Bridge Road, York Haven, York County, Pennsylvania 17370. It is
specifically denied that Glenn A. Layson, Sr. is trading as Layson's Home Improvement, Inc. By
way of explanation, Glenn A. Layson, Sr. is President and a shareholder of Layson's Home
Improvement, Inc., however, the entity known as Layson's Home Improvement, Inc. is a duly
recognized corporation.
3. Plaintiff is without sufficient knowledge, information or belief to form an opinion
as to the truth of the matter asserted and strict proof thereof is demanded at the trial of this matter.
4. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that Plaintiffs entered into a
contract with Layson's Home Improvements, Inc., on or about November 19, 2000. The Defendants
aver that the contract speaks for itself, however, it is specifically denied that Glenn A. Layson, Sr.,
_- I
- ~
,
I
'i ,'~ ~
."'h~_;:
individually, entered into any contract with the Plaintiffs. Furthermore, it is specifically denied that
Layson's Home Improvement, Inc. agreed pursuant to the contract to "reconstruct and remodel" the
master bathroom. By way of explanation, the contract indicates that Layson's Home Improvement,
Inc. will "Gut entire upstairs master bathroom, Reinsulate ceiling." Layson's Home Improvement,
Inc. specific,uly avers that reconstruction of the master bathroom would not include tearing down
and rebuilding exterior walls which was not included in the price of the contract. As Layson's Home
Improvement, Inc., never removed the exterior walls, the frame which was originally out of plumb,
remained in said condition. Defendant acknowledges that the original cost quoted pursuant to the
contract was $10,850.00, "plus" costs for fixtures for plumbing, electric, tile, rock board, cabinets
and countertops which were to be paid for by the Plaintiffs pursuant to paragraphs 11 and 12 of the
contract dated October 2, 2000..
5. No response is required, as the change order/modification ofthe contract speaks
for itself.
6. Admitted.
7. Admitted.
8. Denied as a conclusion of law to which no response is required. To the extent a
responsive pleading is required, Defendant, Glenn A. Layson, Sr., specifically avers that he never
performed work pursuant to the contract nor was he required to do so in his individual capacity.
Layson Home Improvements, Inc. specifically denies that the work was performed negligently and
believes and therefore avers that all work was performed in a proper and workmanlike manner, and
in response thereto, avers the following:
~ , "
,
--I.
,l-_ ""
-"-".....
,
d
A. The floor was not level at the commencement of the work by Layson's
Home Improvement, Inc., and the contract did not include leveling the floor. In the event Layson's
Home Improvement, Inc. leveled the floor, a step up would have been required from the bedroom
to the master bathroom thereby creating a hazard. Plaintiffs were advised that the floor would be
the same as before and agreed to accept this condition without modification.
B. During the time Layson's Home Improvement, Inc, , worked on Plaintiffs'
residence, a portion of the scabbed board used by Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., broke lose,
however, the board was repaired. At the time Layson's Home Improvement, Inc. completed the
work at Plaintiffs' residence, there were no cracks, and any cracks which have occurred since that
time, would be beyond the knowledge, information and belief of the Defendant. Furthermore,
Defendant believes and therefore avers that any such cracks would not be caused by work they
performed, but rather as a result of the prior floods which have hit the Plaintiffs' residence on more
than one occasion,
C. At the outset of the work by Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., and as
stated previously, plumbing the walls was not part of the contract. In order to make the walls plumb,
Layson's Home Improvement, Inc. would have been required to remove the exterior walls,
including, but .not limited to, the bathroom, main bath, hall, and master bedroom walls.
D, and E. In order to properly seal the tile grouting, Layson's Home
Improvement, Inc., through its employees, applied excess sealer to the grout which later would
have been removed with a special solvent. Prior to employees applying the solvent to remove the
excess grouting, Claire M. Hoffman scrubbed offthe excess sealer, thereby causing damage to the
'.,-- '-,-, -;"
'"
-L
;,-",;C;f,,'
~z
grout and tile. Ms. Hoffman refused to inform Mr. Layson of the type of cleaner she used, and
therefore, Layson was unable to determine whether the solvent would be effective to resolve the
problem. In addition to Ms. Hoffman causing damage to the grout and tile, she prevented Layson's
Home Improvement., Inc., from solving the problem with the solvent as stated. Defendants are
without sufficient knowledge, information or belief to form an opinion as to whether the damage is
permanent as Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., was never provided the opportunity to apply the
solvent that removes the excess sealer from the tile.
F. It is acknowledged that the shower floor and seat slope, however, Layson's
Home Improvement, Inc., had agreed to repair the slope prior to completing the job. Plaintiffs
prevented Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., from accessing the property to complete the job.
H. Plaintiffs ordered and purchased the shower stall, therefore, any problems
with installation would be due directly to the Plaintiffs improperly measuring for and ordering the
shower stall. Defendant believes and therefore avers that a shower frame can be made for the
shower, however, believes the Plaintiffs failed to obtain the proper frame to complete the job in a
proper manner.
1. Plaintiffs had agreed to complete the painting of the entire job pursuant to
the change order dated January 29, 2001, and signed February 7, 2001. Defendants believe and
therefore aver that the door frame and trim would be the responsibility of the painters/owners.
9. Admitted.
10. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that the Plaintiffs' credit card
was debited $2,664.00 by ProSource, however, it is specifically denied that this was done at the
'l.
,
r--
:";_:';"-
,~ -_,:,~fp" _",__:__
-~-"~"'-
request of either Defendant. Mr. Layson had placed two (2) job orders through ProSource and
ProSource erroneously charged the second job order to the Plaintiffs' credit card. As soon as the
error was discovered, Defendants believe and therefore aver that the proper credit was applied to
Plaintiffs' credit card. Defendants specifically deny that the materials in question were in any way
damaged beyond repair by any acts or omission of the Defendants.
II. Defendants acknowledge that $106.85 was charged to Plaintiffs' account for
tools, however, Mrs. Hoffinan specifically agreed that she would pay for these additional items.
12. Denied. Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., through its agents/employees,
attempted to contact the Plaintiffs on a number of occasions to discuss any perceived problems,
however, the Plaintiffs failed to respond to their agents/employees.
13. Denied as a conclusion of law to which no responsive pleading is required, and
strict proofthereof is demanded at the trial of this matter.
WHEREFORE, Defendants respectfully request that Glenn A. Layson, Sr., be
dismissed from this lawsuit as an improper party, and request that judgment be entered in favor of
Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., and against Plaintiffs.
NEW MATTER
14, Paragraph Nos. 1 through 13 are incorporated herein as though fully set forth.
15. Defendant, Glenn A. Layson, Sr., did not enter into a contract with the Plaintiffs
and has no individual liability to them.
"-
,- ~~'"
~-'"
'",'--"
. ,,-,-'-';,L
-"Ji._'
16. Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., completed all work in a proper and
workmanlike manner.
17. Any damage to Plaintiffs' property was directly due to their own negligence or
other circumstances beyond Defendant's control.
18. The Plaintiffs prevented the Defendant, Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., from
completing the final phases of the contract.
COUNTERCLAIM
19. Paragraph Nos. 1 through 18 are incorporated herein a though fully set forth.
20. On April 6, 2001, Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., prepared a proposal for
additional work to be performed at the Plaintiffs' residence.
21. The proposal was accepted by Claire M. Hoffman on April 11 , 200 I. A true and
correct copy of said contract is attached hereto, incorporated herein by reference, and marked Exhibit
"A", Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., performed the services set forth in the contract in a proper
and workmanlike manner.
22. Plaintiffs have refused to remit payment for the work completed, despite having
received reimbursement from Layson's Home Improvement, Inc.'s insurance company.
23. Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., also completed a substantial portion of the
cOntracts dated October 2, 2000 and January 29, 2001, and Plaintiffs have prevented Layson's Home
Improvement, Inc., its agents and representatives from completing the work. Layson's Home

Improvement, Inc., believes $1,318.75, remains due pursuant to the two (2) original contracts, plus
$2,010.00, provided by the third (3rd) contract entered into by the parties.
24. The contracts entered by the parties also assess attorney fees, interest and
costs against the Mr, and Mrs. Hoffman in an amount to be proven at the trial of this matter.
WHEREFORE, Defendant, Layson's Home Improvement, Inc., respectfully requests
This Honorable Court enter judgment against George M. and Claire M. Hoffman in an amount not
in excess of $25,000.00, plus interest, attorney fees and costs of this suit; an amount within the
jurisdiction of arbitration under the local rules of court.
