Hi Eric,
Can your friend still get in touch with the person in question? If so, keep calling steady until he comes back to fix his mistakes. Does he still owe money to the guy? Don't pay him, give him a deadline to fix the problems and if he doesn't get it done then use the money to hire a proper contractor to finish the job. make sure your ffriend keeps record of this corrispondence. Unfortunately there isn't much else he can do. Your friend might have to bite the bullet and hire someone else to fix the mistakes. I wish i had better news for you.
