Turn renovation chaos into a clear timeline with proof
Build a Payment Dispute Timeline
This use case is for homeowners who have paid a contractor and now face disputed charges, unfinished work, defects, delays, or conflicting promises. The trigger is usually a failed resolution attempt, an insurance request, or preparation for formal negotiation.
The job is to gather payment records, photos, messages, contracts, and issue notes into a chronological timeline. A useful file connects each payment or promise to what followed, making dates, gaps, and supporting proof easy for someone else to understand.

Built from personal experience navigating a contractor dispute.

More about organizing the record
Use a repeatable entry structure so another person can verify the sequence quickly. Each event should answer what happened, when it happened, and which file supports it.
- Start with contract signing, deposits, milestone invoices, disputed charges, missed work, and written attempts to resolve the issue.
- For each payment, attach the receipt or statement and connect it to the promised milestone, completed work, or unresolved defect.
- Prepare a focused copy for small claims court that includes only events and files relevant to the amount sought.
