Don't know what employee is doing in shed

Don't want bungling company to try and repair goods again

I had a service done to my property with the cost paid in loan instalments, but I realised that the doors and windows were fitted wrongly and are too small. I then received a call from the company who carried out the job saying that they were disturbed by the quality of the work done and would be sending out a sales manager to fix the problem. I then received a voicemail the next day from the original man who did the work. I already notified the company 3 weeks previously to get the job done. I also contacted the Fenestration Self-Assessment Scheme who stated that they do not wish to get involved. I have lost all confidence in this company and do not wish for them to come to repair their damage as they have had numerous opportunities to do so already. What can I do?

Don't want same engineer to come back to correct fault

Don't want to work with difficult client again

My company builds websites. I entered into a contract with a client with certain terms and conditions. I provided a set of designs three times but the client was still not happy with the work done. I therefore agreed to terminate the contract and refund my client to the full amount paid. My client agreed and moved on, looking to instruct another company. It has been a fortnight and my client has now contacted me requesting me to do the work again. I am not looking to do the work as I believe that the contract is now over and I wish to end this matter.

Do part-time employees deserve the same sick pay as full-time workers

One of my employees is complaining that her contract does not allow enough sick pay for her and I want to know if I should give the same amount of sick pay to my part-time employees.
