Dear (*) Colin Stoker
Your work for Mrs Beverley Adams
(1) I am working for Mrs Beverly Adams who has asked me to contact you on her behalf.
Mrs Adams has (2) said to me that you carried out some plumbing and building work in her
home at 33 Russell Gardens in July 20XX. Mrs Adams (3) is saying that despite numerous
telephone calls and letters to your place of business, (4) you have been silent about the
complaints that she has made concerning the work that you carried out. May I draw your
attention to the fact that despite having no formal, written agreement (5) a contract of spoken
words exists between you.
My client would like to raise the following points with you:
1 You (6) promised you would remove an old gas fire from her living room and repair
the damage to the wall. You removed the fire on 20 July 20XX, but (7) at this moment the
wall has not been repaired.
2 You installed a new hot water boiler in the kitchen and suggested that (8) for more
money of £150 you would build a cupboard around it so that it would not be visible. You
installed the boiler on 21 July 20XX but failed to fit the cupboard according to your
agreement.
My client also tells me that in addition to this, you have not supplied her with a (9) paper to
prove that she has paid you for the cash amount of £1,800 that she gave you on 20 July 20XX.
Please contact this office as soon as possible so that we can discuss how to resolve this
(10) argument as quickly as possible.
Yours sincerely
Emma Watson
