Looking for advice on delayed home project in Rhode Island.
Need advice on going after a fence contractor in RI.
We hired someone about 7 months ago to do a fence project. There’s no formal contract, but we do have:
\- text messages discussing the work/timeline
\- pricing/details for the materials
\- proof he cashed the check for materials ($1,600)
Since then it’s been nonstop excuses, pushed dates, cancellations, and now basically ghosting us. We gave him a final deadline of 5/18/26 to either start the job or refund the money, and he didn’t take it seriously at all.
What’s the best route in Rhode Island for something like this? Contractor Board? Small claims court? Attorney General?
Just looking for advice from anyone who’s dealt with this before and what actually got results.
