Man, that's terrible. I can't stand it when people do shoddy work. It's even worse when you get blamed for it. Hopefully you're able to release it and move on now. They're in the wrong, but you don't want that eating at you. I hope things start looking up for you! Even though it's very small, here's a 100% to help you out. :)
Either way I get screwed, because I had to fix it. The tearout was really bad. With glass cabinets it would’ve looked horrible. But being blamed then get freaked out on was inappropriate.
