Extremely unprofessional. The crew consisted of the painter and one helper. They did not bring lights, etc. needed to see correctly to paint. No prep work was done at all. The "crew" was done in less than 2 days. Upon inspection of interior,no paint on the walls, only primer. Nails and holes in the walls had not been patched. Painter did not "skimcoat" the places the wallpaper was peeling as he said. Therefore, large pieces of painted wallpaper was falling off the walls and bubbling. He painted ceiling tiles which are now stuck. No care put into his work at all. He allowed himself and his helper to smoke in the house, eat, and chew tobacco.He also spent an inordinate amount of time looking for scrap metal to sell in the house for profit, he smashed an upright piano looking for this and told the neighbor. They left their garabage laying around for me to clean up. When confronted that we were not happy the painter got extremely unprofessional and used profanity. He went back to the house and agreed there was no paint on the walls so he put more paint on the walls, still over nails, tape, anything that was on the walls to begin with. He kept demanding the other half of his money. The job was not up to standards but I paid him as I felt threatened. I had to bring in another contractor who was appauled by the work that was done. I am now in the process of paying someone else to fix what he broke. Throughout the process it's been horrible. Anytime confronted about an issue he had caused he kept demanding more money. He even charged me to buy his own tools he should already have. I have photos of the damage he caused and all theconversations via text message where the painter cussed at me, threatened me, and was extremely unprofessional. Please do not trust this person or business as it will end badly for you, I assure you.
