I don't know what happened with Craig. He seemed great and after seeing the work required, he gave a quote that I was happy with and agreed to start. After a few delays due to ordering problems the start date kept being pushed back. Then there were more delays due to sickness and a backlog of other projects. I waited patiently and stayed in touch.
Eventually Craig stopped communicating. I don't know why. His phone just rang, I left voice messages, missed calls, text messages over a couple of weeks. No reply.
I hope he's fine and it was just a misunderstanding.
Unfortunate I can't wait forever so I must move on and find someone else to do the work.
