COVER-ALL-PAINTING

Description of Work: COMPANY WAS HIRED TO PAINT EXTERIOR OF OUR 80 YEAR OLD HOUSE. AFTER THE FIRST POWER SPRAYING TO REMOVE THE OLD PAINT, WE FOUND OUT THAT MOST OF THE WOOD SIDING WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. BILL CARR GAVE US EVERY INDICATION THAT HE WOULD BE ABLE TO HIRE SOMEONE TO REPLACE THE WOOD SIDING AND THEN HE WOULD BE ABLE TO CONTINUE WITH THE PAINT JOB. BILL HAD NUMEROUS EXCUSES AS TO WHY THE JOB WAS NOT PROGRESSING AS PROMISED. HE ADVERTISES THAT HE WILL ALWAYS BE ON SITE AND THIS WAS NEVER THE CASE. HE SAYS THAT HE HAS SKILLED LABORERS, BUT HE PUT AN AD IN THE NEWSPAPER FOR ANYONE TO WORK ON THE PROJECT FOR $8.50 AN HOUR. I HAD NUMEROUS PEOPLE COME TO MY HOUSE LOOKING FOR BILL BECAUSE HE WAS NOT PAYING THEM. BILL WAS VERY GOOD AT ANSWERING AND RETURNING MY PHONE CALLS IN THE BEGINNING BUT THAT QUICKLY STOPPED AND I ALWAYS HAD A VERY HARD TIME GETTING IN TOUCH WITH HIM. THE JOB IS FINALLY DONE, BUT IT TOOK THREE MONTHS AS OPPOSED TO THE TWO WEEKS PROMISED IN THE CONTRACT.
