Draft damage Caused by a Contractor to My Property with an escalation ladder and an evidence checklist.
The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.
Write a letter about damage a contractor caused while working at my home. Details I will supply: contractor [CONTRACTOR_NAME], date [DATE], damage [DAMAGE_DESCRIPTION], estimate [REPAIR_ESTIMATE], their insurance [CONTRACTOR_INSURANCE]. The draft must describe the damage, ask for their insurer details, and ask for repair or payment. Describe the work being done, the damage found and when, and who was present. Attach a repair estimate and ask the contractor to notify their insurer and propose a date to inspect. Do not guess at cause beyond what I can show. Documents that usually matter: dated photos before and after, the repair quote from another tradesperson, the contractor's insurance details, and a witness if any. Remedies that are usually on the table: repair or payment, a claim lodged with their insurer, and a written acknowledgement of responsibility. They will often answer: "The damage was already there." Answer by sending the before photos and asking for theirs. Begin with an exhibit table for the damage caused by a contractor to my property (number, item, date, purpose), name what I still lack, and then write the letter and refer to the exhibits. Return the letter itself plus a cover note of about 60 words, plus the steps to take for silence or refusal (the contractor's insurer, then my own insurer, then legal advice), plus a list of exhibits (photos, estimate, contract, messages), and one records tip. Mail the letter by a tracked route with proof of delivery, and keep the receipt and a scan of the letter. Draft the letter from me personally as a layperson, without posing as counsel, and claim no professional standing. Request every missing detail up front and highlight what would fail without evidence. State no legal rules or time limits yourself; stay within [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN], and add a line telling me to verify the exact law with a professional or my local consumer agency. The goal is a usable draft, not legal advice, so avoid telling me what would win. Stay calm, plain and courteous, and no accusations I cannot support, and use only the deadline I set in [DEADLINE].

Dear Mr. Volk, On 12 August your crew replaced our bathroom floor. After they left, we found a cracked basin and chipped wall tiles (photos 1 to 4). I ask you to repair them or pay the quoted cost of 640.00 (quote attached) by 5 September. Please tell me who your insurer is and how to claim. Thank you, Greta Lindh Next step if no reply by 5 September: I will send a second letter with two repair quotes and ask your insurer directly. Cover note: take dated photos before anyone touches anything else. Ask a consumer office about your options.
