Whose in the wrong? Workman..

I rent, been renting for years had no problem all straight forward.

House needs some repairs, so agency got a work man in touch with me. Arranged for the next day for him to come out all great.

He never turned up, I texted and called and got no reply.
Arranged another day and again never turned up.

Arranged another day then my DC came down with covid, he is a type one diabetic and became extremely unwell which required us going to a&e. So obviously I cancelled the day before and said to the workman to arrange a day this week with me. He never gave me a date/time.

Now my agency has been in touch and is annoyed saying I need to let him in as work needs to be done. Despite me keeping two days free and him not turning up on those days?

So I text the workman today with two days this week he's read but not replied. And the agency are saying I need to sort it.

AIBU to think what else can I do if he's not even replying or bothering to turn up on the days he's arranged?

Screenshot all your messages to the workman and email them to the letting agency.

Brilliant idea. Definitely do that

Don't phone. Do everything with the agency via email so that you have a record of what's been said.
