Job is done quickly without attention to details. For example, exterior security lights were also painted. Entrance door and garage doors have visible paint drops and lines. They came back few times to try to correct but I just gave up at the end.
I wouldn't use them next time.
Quick and Dirty is my thought.
The pressure cleaning was pretty standard and I have no issues there. However, the painting is where I had issues. It took 2.5 days because of the weather.
On day one they painted the roof ? I had to ask the painters to cover my neighbor?s car because of the over spray; later I will explain this problem. They were to spray primer first before painting, but the guy wanted to mix the primer with the paint and do everything in one shot. I requested it be separate steps and he wasn?t too happy about that. I read the primer instruction and it was suppose to be a 1:3 ratio of primer to water, but he just poured the primer in the bucket and filled it without measuring. It appeared to be more than the 1:3 ratios. When spraying the primer, it appeared that he went as fast as he could spray the primer and I doubt it was evenly applied.
When it came time for painting the roof, the paint was not applied evenly and there were lines forming where the spray pattern was overlapping with the previous spray pattern. I had to call that out to the painter and also call one of the owner about the issue. The painter ?disagreed? with the spray pattern, but eventually agreed to re-spray the roof. The weather had deteriorated that day and so most of the roof was painted with the visible spray pattern. The painter said he re-sprayed one side later, but in my opinion, it doesn?t appear to be. I could not contest because I didn?t see him redo it.
On day two they painted the walls - On this day, they finished up the other half of the roof and started spraying the walls. The helper did a decent job taping up windows, doors, trims and etc. but later I found out that it wasn?t completely taped well and when I opened some doors, they stuck to the frame and the floor under the door was painted. The most of the soffits had a quite a bit of paint on them and the underside of the roof fascia were not painted evenly. They painted the garage door but the painter was surprised and upset that it was suppose to be 2 colors when I told them and this was already agreed upon ahead of time.
On the extra half day they repainted the roof ? on day one they repainted one side of the roof and on this day, they needed to repaint the other side yet again because of the spray pattern. They didn?t cover my neighbor?s cars and the overspray went all over them. After the painters left I noticed it and I had to wash all the cars (3) as my neighbors were out of town and I didn?t have the keys to move their car before the work started. I didn?t bother telling the company because I pretty much figured no action would be taken after having to call them several times about other issues in how my house was being painted. I paid them half on the second day and the rest on the half-day. I refused their request for a full payment at the end of the 2nd day since the roof needed to be re-sprayed.
Other details ? I did ask if they would be repairing the trim around the walls and windows where some rust had set in. It?s a minor issue in my opinion and they said they would fix it, but the painter simply painted over it. They were suppose to remove the affected area and stucco over it. The rust has now emerged and I will need to repair and repaint it. The painters weren?t the cleanest and did leave a couple hand-full of trash around my house and some paint marks on the floor here and there. Spraying a wall is fine if it?s covered completely, but if not sprayed correctly, the direction of spray only covers one side, per se and the other side may be lacking. This was the case when looking down the wall. Looking up was fine, but if you were elevated and looked down, you would see unpainted parts of the wall. I had to call that out a couple times so they would back-role the area for complete coverage.
They WERE the cheapest quote and overall did a decent job for the money. The contract only states 1 coat.
I don't think I would hire them again, but if I were, it would be for a simple job only.
