A contractor breaches his obligations of apartment renovation. What to do?

Dear sir/madam,

I engaged a general contractor to help renovate my apartment. It has now been over 4 months. I have major issues with the bathrooms (leaks, incorrect installation). In addition, he has used real cheap quality material which is scratched and has a horrible finish.

Finally, I have a long list of items still not complete. He has been promising for the past 3 weeks that someone will come to review and correct but no one has come and every day I have a new excuse.

I paid him 90% of the money as he talked a good game. I would welcome some advice on the best course of action to move forward.

Dear questioner,

If you need to have an official and effective action against the contractor, you may submit a legal notice by the court to him and he will be notified by the court itself that you are serious about that issue.

Kindly contact me via phone or email for further assistance.
