"Jim and Joe came to do the estimate. Nice guys; said it would be a three-day job. That surprised me that it would take three days to demo a wall, frame it and patch the floor, but they talked about all the prep and detail work required.
Their sons and another guy did the actual work. Similarly good guys. They banged out the demo in half a day, and were even able to get the electrician over on Day 1 to do his thing. They nearly finished the reframing that day, too.
There was an issue when they said they didn't know they were supposed to patch the floor, and that it would cost more. They had thought the replacement hardwood pieces were only for the threshold. I was a bit incredulous. Why would anyone want a 7-foot wide hole above the subfloor in their kitchen? Obviously the floor required needed to be patched. Plus, they had planned and charged for three days work. They were nearly done after one day.
I talked it through with Jim, and we agreed it was a misunderstanding of some kind. The guys did finish the job, including the floor patch, at no additional cost.
However, the floor patch was not done well. Five months later, and there are some quarter-inch gaps between flooring pieces. And the threshold-long piece of maple they put down isn't entirely flush to the floor on one end (sticks up slightly). Because the flooring gaps are in a spot that cannot be covered up with a plant or something, it will need to get fixed sooner or later.
