I suspect you can't (nor can anyone else) because you don't have a contract with the homeowner.  They didn't ask you for any services.    You could take the company to court, get a judgment, however, collecting on that judgment will be tough.  Also, consider the expense involved, since I think you may be able to file where your company is located, however serving the other party may prove difficult and expensive.  Additionally, since it's a company, you will have a hard time trying to pierce the corporate veil, and you  have no personal guarantees from management as individuals.  Also if the company ceases to exist, your judgment is worthless. Bottom line, it's a risk we all take and sometime it does not end well.    The other potential issue may be in the vendor management package you may have signed that states you have to sit for arbitration vs. going to court. I hope you can take it as a loss write off against your taxes.

The other option that may be a possibility is that you could 1099 the company (i.e. to the IRS and you'd have to have their EIN) for the amount owed since you'd have to write it off and I believe they then have to pay taxes on it.  I seem to remember lenders doing this to foreclosed borrower for losses incurred vs. filing a deficiency judgment.
