You are the professional and you should be paid. Seam placement or not! Was the placement of the seam discussed beforehand? If not, your professional desicion should have NO bearing on whether you get paid or not. Talk to your attorney.
: I have been installing carpet for over 20 years and just recently a customer has refused to pay me because he thinks I should've placed a seam against a wall instead of a walkway. This would have made a 30 ft. seam instead of a 18 ft. seam. Also his seam placement would have placed it under the kitchen chairs, and it would've had the outside light shining across it. The worst part is this customer watched me for 45 minutes while I made this seam. What do you think about this?????? Help?????
