Description
STATEMENT OF THE FACTS This case involves a dispute between the owner-builders of an earth-sheltered concrete house, Carol and Melvin Northcutt,
and the concrete contractors for the house, Herb and Marge Hancock. The house consists of seven joined pods which may be covered
with dirt for insulation. The Northcutts made an oral contract with the Hancocks for construction of the pods. The terms of
the contract are in dispute. The Northcutts claim that for $65,000 the Hancocks agreed to complete all structural concrete
work. The Hancocks dispute the original price, and claim that they performed extra work not contemplated in the original contract,
for which they were to be paid on a time and material basis. Construction was delayed. Each side blames the other for the
delay. Following delays, all seven pods were poured. The Northcutts believed some of the work to be defective. The Hancocks
offered to cure the problems but the Northcutts refused, ordering them off the job.
