Hi.

I've got a family member that did business with a home owner renovating his house, my family member installed aircons for him but the home owner didn't follow instructions, as agreed(the house was under-construction), so my family member had to acquire extra costs. the home owner the turned around and charged my family member with construction cost to the value of R8000,00 (just for chasing the walls) and refuses to pay.

It is now month 7, small claims court won't work, so what options does my family member have?
