Q: What are the buyers rights to cancel a proposal for painting services in North Carolina?
Painting company sent proposal for repainting entire home (interior). Signed proposal accepting the price that was shown. Also made $625 down payment. The following day sent painting company written notice that I was canceling the paint project and would like my down payment refund. They are refusing to refund my down payment. No services were rendered. No material (paint) was purchased.
A: Unless you hire a lawyer to write the painting contactor a letter explaining why they should refund your money, you may have to sue them in a small claims court.
