Response from Charles P. Tarantini Plastering
I’ve never met this man. He sent me a picture of the damage. I left him a message on the phone with the quote. He texted me a derogatory message saying I didn’t respond to his pictures. I called him and told him he must have missed it. I gave him the quote verbally. This is what he posted in response. I work hard to conduct myself as a professional and perform up to my best. Past reviews will attest to this.

I had contacted him to give me a quote, and then (due to some uncertainty on my part regarding the name/phone number of the other person who was coming to do a quote as well), left a message for him (and the other person, to cover myself) that "if he was the person coming on Sunday, that I needed to change the date and please call; otherwise, please ignore this message." Well, apparently he listened to PART of the message (which the other person did not at all), and he was the one who was supposed to come on Monday, not Sunday, but he did not show up on Monday. I waited around for him, but he never showed, and since the other person (who did not listen to HIS message) showed up on Sunday, I knew that he was supposed to be there Monday. So, I called him several times, left a text msg or two, and was finally able to speak to him 2 hours after he was supposed to show. He claimed that I had told him not to come, (even though the message specifically said that if he was scheduled to come Monday, to ignore that voice message.) He stated he'd have to come next weekend and hung up, I tried calling him back; he didn't answer, and I also left another text to him to call me and set up a new appt. NO ANSWER. The following week, (Thursday), he called me and said, "I will be at your home in 1/2 hour." Meanwhile, I was not home at the time, and had not even expected a call-back by this point. I told him that we did NOT have an appt set up that day, that I wasn't home, and asked him to give me a moment to look at my calendar. He said "Oh, ok, another time," and HUG UP on me while I was checking my calendar! This was EXTREMELY unprofessional behavior! I don't care how long his family has been in business -- this is NOT the way to talk to customers or treat themd if one wants to CONTINUE being in business!! I do NOT recommend this plasterer based upon his absolutely horrific customer disservice.

She was very confused. She could not remember who she was talking to. I was on the turnpike and I thought she had hung up on me. Unfortunately it was a misunderstanding.

Everything went really well. Chuck was responsive, professional, and nice. We left him alone with the job most of the day and came home to find no more hole in our ceiling. He was great, and we would definitely hire him again (although we are hoping not to have a gaping hole in our ceiling again any time soon).

He came early instead of coming late. He covered everything and cleaned up when he left. I have very high remarks for him. I'll use him again!
Description of Work: He plastered a spot on the ceiling that had leak and he had it fixed.

Chuck and Frank were able to get the job done in three days. They were very punctual each day and were wrapped up by mid-afternoon each time. The first day, they were very thorough in laying down protection for our hardwood floors and the carpeted bedroom, and all the trim work, and by the end of the first day, the first coat was well on it's way. By day three we had newly plastered walls that looked like they never had been textured before. We've given it some time to cure, and it'll be ready to paint very soon.
Description of Work: We needed to smooth out walls that had been textured over the years. There was a bedroom and a hallway with a substantial amount of trimwork in the hallway that created a lot of ins and outs.

It was a pleasure working for Marianne and you.You were accommodating to all of our needs and wants. The best part of doing the bedroom is knowing that in a couple of months the room will be filled with joy. The start of a new life for a beautiful girl.

Excellent workmanship. He worked by himself and did an "old school" repair with plaster of Paris.

Description of Work: Repaired plaster on the wall and ceiling in our bedroom that was water damaged from an unlined chimney. Was very professional and prompt in responding to our inquiry, scheduling and completing the work. He was also very respectful of our home and made sure to cover everything while he worked and thoroughly clean up afterwards. I'm very happy with the repair.

Description of Work: Mr. Tarantino did a perfect and beautiful job of applying plaster in several areas in a renovated bathroom. He also patched some plaster in another art of the house where we had taken out a wall. The actual date was earlier but 2012 was earliest I could select.
