Roy Gilmore

Roy did not use a drop cloth when chipping paint outside. I was not home and did not see until after the first days of work had been complete. I asked Roy to clean up the next day and from then on out to use a tarp. I wish I did not have to ask for use of a tarp. His assumption that I did not want a tarp to be used due to outdoor plants is unprofessional. He should be asking and communicating with the home owners to make sure he is doing his best work. He attempted a clean up but was not thorough. I spent 2.5 hours cleaning up paint chips after his clean up. My flower bed still had to be up rooted. After the chipping fiasco, Roy was asked to use a drop cloth from then on out. His response to the simple request was one of annoyance and frustration. Roy attempted to use a drop cloth the next day and laid out a narrow cloth 2 feet from the home. I asked for him to use more or a larger cloth so that it would extend 6 ft out. The paint chips fly far and it was pretty obvious from the first clean up day. Roy, again, seeming very annoyed began arguing and complaining. It took 30 minutes to convince him that it was in his best interest to just lay down the cloths and that his arguing was a waste of his time and my own. I ended up helping him with his job of moving the tarps when he was complete for proper disposal. Later that day, he commented to my partner that he did not want to use more tarps because the disposal area was 20 min away and he was bothered by having to drive there. That is his job. And he is blatantly doing minimal clean up because he does not feel like driving 20 min out to dispose of toxic material. This material can only be dumped in this specific location and he was OK with littering it in my yard! THIS IS ABSURD! Roy also broke 8 windows in the house. Upon breaking the first window, he said he did not notice. The second window he broke, he said it broke because those sets of windows were very old. These sets ended up with 7 broken windows. He did not stop after the first one was broken. He did not stop when the second and third were broken. He kept working. Instead of re evaluating the situation and thinking about what he could do better. Could be less aggressive with the paint chipping. Overall, Roy litters, leaves his tools anywhere and everywhere without asking, he argues, and he DOES NOT LISTEN. There were many times where I was asking him where he planned to work next so that I could make sure the area was prepped and clean. He would forget, change his mind, and come up to me upset that that area is not clean. Forgetting that we agreed on a specific area on the following day. He could not answer simple yes or no questions- it seemed as if he did not process the information correctly and acted annoyed that you were asking it. I had to watch this man do his job. It was a waste of my time. And when I was not watching, he was causing stress to my landlord and myself (tenant)

He was great. He was very fast, efficient and clean. We would definitely recommend him.

Ray was on time each day. He re-organized his schedule and painted our entire house in 1 weekend - Friday afternoon -and gt; Sunday afternoon with only a few days notice! He is very accommodating, nice, and funny ... but besides being a GREAT person, he is FANTASTIC at his job! Not only did I get a beautiful and professionally painted house, but I also received a lot of painting tips (for my future project attempts). I highly recommend Ray for any painting service that you need.

Excellent work!

He is very loyal, and is always there when he says he will be. To me, you just can't get much better than that.

He has been painting in this area for many, many years. He did a beautiful job of matching the stain. He did two coats and he was very quick. He was very professional and it looks very nice.
