Registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt
Alice Dupont

Attention: Bob Martin
27, avenue des Mimosas
06400 Cannes
Cannes, January 15, 2026
Subject: Notice to remedy defects found in the painting work
Dear Sir or Madam,
On January 5, 2026, you carried out painting work in my bedroom.
Following your work, I noticed a visible stain on one of the walls involved in the project.
In order to seek an amicable solution, I brought this problem to your attention and we met on-site on January 10, 2026. Despite our discussions, we failed to reach an agreement regarding the origin of the issue or the measures to be taken to remedy it.
I consider that the work carried out does not present the result that one is legitimately entitled to expect from a professional.
Consequently, I formally give you notice to take all necessary measures to remedy this disruption and to propose a satisfactory solution to me within fifteen days of receipt of this letter.
Failing a response or a satisfactory solution within this timeframe, I reserve the right to take any useful steps to defend my interests, notably through the intervention of a court-appointed conciliator, a mediator, or by referring the matter to the competent jurisdiction.
Please accept, Madam, Sir, the expression of my sincere greetings.
Signature
Alice Dupont
