Small metal gate and front door were to be painted. I knew the front door had an area of small rust. I disclosed that. I was scheduled several weeks out. The painter's were prompt and tried to satisfy the requirements. In fact they pointed out an area of wood rot near the front door which I asked they address.
I bought all the materials (not brushes for the job including a weather strip and wood rot stabilizer. They instructed me what to buy. Did not buy wood filler.
I was happy with the work initially. Unfortunately the small spot of rust that was the initial area of concern came back. Lowe's advised me to use a latex paint inside and oil based paint outside. Despite using Sherwin Williams Rust Converter the rust area came back in approximately 6 weeks.
I followed up after the rust stain reappeared and was led to believe Duggins would repaint the interior part of the front door with an oil based paint after sanding down and treating the rust spot once again. I was told they were really busy and would come by my house when they were in the area. Several weeks passed by.
After cleaning up at my front door last week I noticed some dimpling around the wood trim near the bottom of my front door.I put my finger on the area and it pushed through. That was the same area that I paid extra to treat. Between the rust reappearing on my white door and the wood rot repair failing, I felt I needed to see if they would make it right.
I was told that the paint was customer supplied and their warranty was 30 days. I should follow up with Lowe's on their warranty. As far as the wood rot, I was told that I must have a drainage issue for it to reappear. Gutters not in that particular area. How do I know the painters removed all the wood rot, stabilized it and filled it completely. I was not watching 100% of the time. In essence they said they performed their services and the issue was with Lowe's and an area that gets wet I should address.
I should not accept complete blame for selecting products. I thought I was buying the correct products. Should I have been better advised by the professionals? I will try to correct the problems since they say they have met their warranty. I am disappointed.
"[member name removed] contracted with us for labor services only on 5/21/2014. At the time of estimate we did advise [member name removed] that the door should be replaced to prevent re-occurrence of the rust issue. We did not advise this customer on products that should be used to remedy the rusting area of the door, she would have been advised at the time of purchase from either Lowe's or Sherwin Williams. Unfortunately, the products selected failed to meet her expectations and permanently correct the issue, we were made aware of this on 8/21/2014. We are not able to warranty products that we do not sell but are always happy to warranty our workmanship had that been the issue. [member name removed] clearly stated that the workmanship and professionalism of our painters was to her satisfaction. We hope that [member name removed] has contacted the professionals that advised her on the products she purchased regarding their warranty policy and that her issues have been resolved."
"Thank you so much for your review. We look forward to working with you again."
It was a bad. I thought I was hiring professionals for the price I was paying. They took shelves off the wall and when they replaced them, they left a shelf hanging on the wall, because they did not know how to put it back, and just left one off the wall. They left two rooms completely unpainted. Door frames unpainted, base boards unpainted, trim work not done. Paint on my mirror, paint on my French door, they sprayed painted a ceiling and got spray paint on three door knobs. They never covered the door knobs before spray painting. Instead of filling holes like I was told they would fill, they just painted over the holes. I had nails which I overlooked on the base boards, they painted the nails instead of pulling them. They left the trim in the living room unpainted. If these are professionals, this is the worst I have seen. When I complained to one of the supervisor's, he took pictures and took it back to the shop. I was told by the office manager that they have been reprimanded. After the painters came back, they still missed a lot of stuff in my home. I then spoke to the paint supervisor, who said he would take care of everything. I refused to tell them if anything was wrong after this. I took care of the items they messed up on. For what I paid, this was the worst company I had hired to do a job. They were happy to get my money, $4,649.50, for the paint job which was the worst I have ever seen "professionals" do. I would never recommend these guys for a paint job. After reading the reviews on Angie's list for this company, I was very disappointed with the painters. After paying the money I never heard from the company, even though they knew how frustrated I was for the job they did. As long as they got paid it did not matter.
As for the carpet and kitchen floor. This was a different crew. They were good, I have no complaints about the carpet or they way they cleaned my kitchen floor. I would recommend them for the carpet and floor, but not the painting.
Dan and Chris were very professional and quick. We would not hesitate recommending them and Duggins Services in the future.
