Bolton v Mahadeva [1972] 1 WLR 1009 Court of Appeal

The claimant installed central heating in the defendant's home. The agreed contract price was £560. The defendant was not happy with the work and refused to pay. Defects in the work amounted to £174. The action by the claimant to enforce the payment failed since the court held there was no substantial performance.
