My contractor is refusing to give me copies of invoices for work done by himself or subcontractors i

Had successful work done by a local contractor. Last job, however, was the installation of pavers i

Since then they have been cutting up the pavers to continually add more and more drains. Somewhere along the line, the must have disrupted the foundation or something because now I have constant water inthe basement in one particular area. This constractor had very successfully done alot of work at my house and is well aware that this problem did not occur until the concrete that he, himself, put down was broken up with machinery and the new pavers were installed.
