Legal Question in Consumer Law in Florida

Home Owner Rights

I just purchased a beautiful new home in Port ST. LUcie, FL and I already have an issue with a local fence company. On my move in day of APril 15th I had a fence company come out to give me a quote for a fence that came in just under $4,000. I signed off on the quote and the sales rep assured us that this was not a commitment to have the fence done and that we would need a 50% deposit. Last week I was out of town for business and returned today to a completed fence. I cannot afford $4,000 and they do not have financing available. I am willing to make payments to the company though. If they decide they want to take the fence down are they responsible for re-soding my lawn? Can they sue me for this? Please tell me what I should do here. Thank you.

Re: Home Owner Rights

What you can do depends on what you signed. Most likely, they will be willing to take payments. Call and try to work it out with them.
