This. If it's a couple of hundred then it's probably worth just going for it - crap as it is to have to pay more, it's probably also the most cost effective way of getting it sorted. Obviously if we're talking 4 figures then not so clear cut.

Did they leave it long enough to dry?

Sounds like you need a new subfloor laying down before the underlay and laminate.
My bathroom floor was terrible, so I laid some MDF and screwed it down tight before laying lvt planks. It's absolutely perfect now.

I knew someone would say thatOoof.. MDF in a bathroom? RIP
I couldn't find anything else the right thickness. It's all covered with waterproof underlay and lvt which is also waterproof though. Also sealant round the edges. All good I think.
Find out what all your options are...
What is the cost of the more expensive one ?? - That way you are then in an informed position.
So if he offered say 25% refund and left the floor down - how does that help you if your not happy with the flooring? I don't really understand how a partial refund helps you here if your still not happy with the finished job.
Either full refund and he takes it all away
or
You agree a compromised figure for the LVT flooring between you both.
Partial refunds just seems like a silly option as he walks away from it and your left with a floor your not happy with.

Surely if you get a full refund you would be buying another floor anyway as that was your intention in the first place.
This seems like a very reasonable offer to me and one you would normally have to push hard for as they are out of pocket.
