Dear Mr. Slammer,

This letter is to inform you, that effective immediately September 15, 2011, the contract between Gates Contracting Services and KL and More is being terminated due to violations of the performance and quality clauses contained in the contract terms. This decision is final with no negotiation. For clarification, I am outlining some of the more serious breaches of our contract below.

On June 5, 2011,———— evidence 1.

On June 15, 2011,———- evidence 2.

In conducting business with your company, our customer service representatives have recorded more than 10 complaints due to workmanship errors, damage to the property where work was being performed, missed appointments, and substandard material installation. I believe that continuing to use KL and More as a subcontractor would seriously damage our company’s reputation and our ability to turn a profit.

I am able to prove all of the claims in this letter with documented evidence. Your company has been paid in full for all finished work. If you have any questions, you may contact me at (123)-1231234 during normal business hours.
