While I agree that the worker urinating on the back of your house was inappropriate, as was their not responding to your email, I don't see that as an excuse to not pay the bill. Why not give them a call and ask to talk to the owner and voice your complaint?
Was the reminder by email? If so, can you respond that you intend to pay promptly after they address your complaint dated xx/xx/xxx?
It probably is true that withholding payment is a way to get their attention. Is there anything you want other than an apology?
My first thought is the company probably doesnt give the guys time to piss, and also tell them not to go inside customer houses.
