A tradesman says he's furious that he hasn't been paid for thousands of dollars worth of work and materials by a contractor after renovating several Pet Valu stores in B.C.

    That's exactly why I only do 'material supplied, & progress billing'!

    Good on Pet Value.

    It may be difficult for Companies to do a more complete vetting of potential contractors as to their record but hopefully they dig into the background of potential ones next time.




    Pet Valu steps up

    Keith first told Go Public he didn’t pay his subtrades, because Pet Valu still owed him $35,000.

    He then said that wasn’t true and admitted Payne is owed up to $20,000. He said he needed to send more invoices to Pet Valu and “figure out what else is outstanding” before Payne could get paid.

    “This is the best I can do to resolve this,” said Keith.

    As a result of Go Public’s inquires, Pet Valu is now pledging to pay any outstanding invoices for tradesman who weren’t paid for work on its stores.

    “Although we are not legally liable for work that was commissioned by Mr. Keith, our company is built on the spirit of community and partnership and we are committed to working with the affected subcontractors to compensate them for completed work in our stores,” said the company.
