Never hire Great Home Painting, LLC. If you schedule appointment, you’ll meet Bob – nicely dressed and polite man. Do not trust him and do not give down payment. He took my money and did not do the job.
Usually I paint my house myself. However my living room is 17feet high and I hired Great Home Painting, LLC to paint it. It appeared that contractor is not capable to do the job properly and on time. Here is the story:
The job estimate was $1090. Contractor demanded $300 down payment, even I provided all materials (including Sherwin-Williams paint EMERALD) – I paid. I showed contractor the paint that I wish to use and explained necessity of the ladders to reach the ceiling highest point.
The job was scheduled to start on June 27 and to be finished in three days - before Holiday. Contractor appeared three days later on June 30 at 10:15 AM – the painter was sick – I understand. Contractor did not bring the ladders to do the job, since he does not have them.
Painter worked from 11 AM to 2:30 PM (3.5 hours) – painter had a doctor visit. I understand also.
Next day contractor appeared in my house at 11:30 AM and without the ladders again. I showed to contractor the defects from the previous day job. Contractor began to blame me: I provided the wrong paint; the sheetrock sucks too much paint; I do not understand what must be done - and demanded additional payment to eliminate the defects.
I decided that contractor is not capable to do the job properly and refused its service. Contractor tells that $300 (for 3.5 hrs) down payment is not enough and began extortion and intimidating, demanding additional $250.
My Independence Day Holiday was messed and I’m looking for another contractor.
Wish me Good Luck.
