My DH got a quote for some work to be done that was meant to be between £35,000 and £40,000. Two weeks ago the company verbally said it was on track to still be that amount.
They've emailed him today with the final bill and it is nearly £100,000. To say we're in shock is an understatement. I feel sick.
They say they there was a part of the bill filed in an old system, so they had only just become aware that it was so high.
Does anyone know where we stand legally? Can a company just increase an amount like this without any warning?
Thanks.

Can anyone help: quoted £40k for some work, they're now billing for £90k. Can they do this?
