I need help with a subcontractor denying liability
Hello ****, to provide the most accurate information, could you please let me know the nature of the liability the subcontractor is denying and in which state this dispute is taking place?
The subcontractor was working on my street digging up natural gas lines, when i turned my sink on i had no water so i called the city to confirm it wasnt shut off for any particular reason and once i went outside to check the contractors were approaching me. They claimed that my pipe was bubbling from underground and so they dug it up and made a repair and wanted to check if i had water pressure returned. When i turned the faucet water came out but it was dirty and the pressure is significantly lower than it was before this happened. They claim that any further repair is not their problem but that i must fix it. This is in kansas
