im dealing with a client who wanted me to give them an estimate before they had decided on materials they wanted put into their home. In a email I sent to her, I stated that the price will be mostly dictated by the cost of the materials they choose. I then also included in the invoice notes that "this is your labor cost for your project" they pay a deposit ( I've had material supplied by homeowners before and it's just a headache ) so I offer to get the materials for them. I bid the flooring project of about 1060 Sq ft at 3400. They choose flooring that cost 2.69 a ft. Under the impression it was clear about it being a labor price I then bought the materials. So I bought 3100 dollars worth of flooring materials and now they're acting like reimbursing me is a complete surprise. Is there any hope or am I just screwed? She's been extremely careful to not breach the contract. Which tells me she knows exactly what she is doing. I just want to get my money back at this point.
