If your contractor disappears mid-project, take these steps to protect yourself and move forward. First, document everything: gather contracts, payment records, communication logs, and photos of the work done. Contact the contractor via all known channels call, email, text and record these attempts. If they’re unresponsive, check your contract for termination clauses or dispute resolution terms. Next, assess the project’s status: hire a professional to evaluate completed work and identify what’s left. File a claim with the contractor’s bond or insurance, if applicable, to recover losses. You can also report the issue to your state’s contractor licensing board or consumer protection agency. If payments were made via credit card, dispute the charges with your bank. For significant losses, consider legal action, but consult an attorney to weigh costs versus benefits. Finally, hire a new contractor to complete the work, ensuring they’re licensed, insured, and vetted with references. To prevent future issues, always research contractors thoroughly, use written contracts, and make payments in stages tied to project milestones. Stay proactive to minimize delays and financial loss.
