Here's the situation.
The fence at my house blew down and we had to fix it. There is a empty lot behind us, so I reached out to the owner of the lot and let him know the fence blew down and we were going to fix it. He starts babbling about needing to get quotes and he lives out of town and I told him we didn't have time to wait and I would send him a bill that is wouldn't cost much since we were doing it ourselves. So we did all the labor ourselves and purchased all the materials ourselves. The fence was about 60 feet long. Total cost was about $1000. So I sent the owner a bill with pictures and receipts but have not received a response. What would be the next step in this situation? The property is located in Sacramento, CA.
Would I have to take him to small claims?
