Is AUTHOR wrong in the post ? POST : Hired a drywall crew for a house I build for myself (i'm not a contractor, just built my own house).  He was nice, i liked him and they did a good job.  

After the job was "done" they left some scaffolding they were going to come back to get.  A week or two after they were done, i noticed that they missed a few things (didn't wrap all the way around a few openings and some random small things).  i also fucked up a few things and needed some repairs. i texted the owner a couple times with no reply (it was how we communicated the whole time) so i contacted one of the employees and had them come fix it on the side.  I paid them $1000 which was expensive but fair, few days of work all said and done. I told the owner i thought it'd be fair if we split the labor costs but never heard back.  I still have the scaffolding and haven't offered it back but nor would i keep it from him if he asked for it.
