NEW CUMBERLAND — A Chester homeowner is suing Ohio contractors, alleging they owe up to $600,000 for breach of contract and negligence.
Joy E. Quinones filed a complaint Dec. 28 in Hancock Circuit Court against Canon Construction of Stow, Ohio, Rick Krapinski and Todd Dewald, alleging they violated the West Virginia Consumer Protection Act.
