Pro-Image Painting

Seth Millet (owner) came to my home to give an estimate on interior painting and wallpaper removal. Stupidly, at the end of the visit, I liked his price so I gave him a deposit for the job. He was supposed to start 2 days later, but he postponed until after the weekend. The day after he postponed, a family emergency came up (my 5 year old son became very ill, my father almost died, among several other things that caused me to have to put the painting job on hold.) I called Seth immediately and asked if I could please have my deposit back because I would not be able to have the work performed at this time. He agreed to give all of my money back, as no services were performed and I had not even given him any paint colors yet so there were no supplies to purchase. This was in November, and he has STILL not returned my money ($600) and he either doesn't respond to my calls, or he sends threatening text messages to me. This is after he said he WOULD return my money, no problem!!!! This was a very valuable lesson that I learned, which is NEVER trust anyone and NEVER pay cash for a job. The word needs to get out about this scumbag and his terrible business practices. He took my $600 and ran. DO NOT EVER hire him, you WILL be sorry!!!!!!!!!
