4. Dcnied. Plaintiff undertook certain work on thc propcrty as was agreed to by the
partics at thc inception of the contract. Subsequcntly, Plaintiffsought to modifY the scope of
work. Defendants did not agree to modifications sought by Plaintiff apart from work which
Plaintiffperformcd to ercct a replaccment wall for a part of the barn on the Defendants' propcrty.
Plaintiff represcnted that this work was necessary and that the condition of the barn wall was such
that a collapse could be expected without replacement. Plaintiff further represented that the
additional work to be pcrformed by him would not exceed a specific dollar amount. Additionally,
Defcndants did agree to have Plaintiff replace a garage door on the home of Defendants at a
charge not to exceed $200.00.
5. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted only that Plaintiff presented a
bill dated Novcmber 12, 1997 to the Defendants in the face amount of$25,084.89. Defendants
incorporate paragraph 3 as though set forth at length. It is denied that the work performed by
Plaintiff was worth the amount of this bill or that Plaintiff was entitled to reeeive this amount from
Defendants. Nonetheless, Defendants paid this sum to Plaintiff in an effort to resolve the claims
presented by Plaintiff dcspite their belief that thesc charges were excessive, were not authorized
by Defendants, were well beyond the cstimates providcd by Plaintiff and were not retleetive of the
work performed by Plaintiff.
6. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted only that Plaintiff submitted an
additional invoice to Defendants dated January 18, 1998 setting forth an amount allegedly due of
$11,624.21 over and above the previous invoice provided by Plaintiff. It is denied that
Defendants ever authorized work which would or could form the basis for thcse exorbitant
2
charges. Further, it is denied that Defendants are liable to PlaintitT on this invoice. Defendants
never made a payment against this invoice, the $4,000.00 payment refereneed by PlaintitTwas a
payment by Defendants to complete payments against the prior invoice.
7. Denied. To the contrary, at no time prior to the initiation of work by PlaintitTdid
he inform Defendants that an interest charge would apply.
8. Denied. There is no amount due on the invoices. To the contrary, PlaintitTis not
entitled to the charges he has forwarded to Defendants.
WHEREFORE, Daniel and Susan Stott respeetfully request that judgment be entered in
their favor and against PlaintitT together with costs and interest.
NEW MATTER
9. Defendants are justified in refusing to pay the charges alleged to be due by
Plaintiff.
10. PlaintitTis estopped from making the claims now presented having represented to
the Defendants the amounts that would be incurred for the services to be rendered and the
detrimental reliance of Defendants upon PlaintitTs representations.
11. The PlaintitT has never provided services or materials whieh would substantiate the
amounts allegedly due.
12. An accord and satisfaction has been reached in this matter with Defendants paying
to PlaintitT all amounts due pursuant to said accord and satisfaction.
13. Defendants have paid PlaintitTthe amount which eould be due him based upon the
agreements of the parties.
3
... ..._ol..
19. Plaintiff agreed that the work he would perform pursuant to these estimates was
being charged on a time and material basis and that he would not add any additional costs to the
materials.
20. After Plaintiff commenced to perform this work on the property, he informed Dan
Stolt that rock had been encountered in digging the water trench. As a result, Dan and Susan
Stott redesigned the direction and layout for the water trench reducing the lenl,'lh of the trench
from the original design of approximately 600 lineal feet to approximately 275 lineal feet. The
trench actually dug by Plaintiff was less than one-half the length upon which he had originally
estimated the project cost.
21. Plaintiff informed Dan Stott that stone dust should be placed over the water lines
to be laid in the trench to protect them from crushing. Dan Stott agreed to this additional material
cost which, as reflected in the invoices of Plaintiff, was $574.44. Additionally, Plaintiff gave a
quote to perform certain minor repairs all at a cost not to exceed approximately $1,500.00.
22. While performing work on the property, Plaintiff represented to Dan and Susan
Stott that one stone wall of the barn was in danger of collapsing and that the only appropriate
means to address this danger was to remove the existing wall and replace it with a new wall.
23. Plaintiff informed Dan and Susan Stott that the cost to remove the existing wall
and install a new wall would be $10,000.00. Plaintiff subsequently amended this amount to
$12,000.00.
