JEFF'S PAINTING

Was new to town so didn't know many painters but got a few estimates and he was the most professional and seemed the best price for the whole house. When it came down to painting, though, I got the impression he was tired of the job and didn't want to do much actual painting himself. A lot of slow work proceeded to happen, lots of chatting and not tons of painting - the house job took about 2 weeks all told, which was very difficult for us with 3 little kids to keep out of their hair. The painting job in general turned out well - they did good work on the ceilings, walls, and all edges as we had numerous colors. Jeff seemed annoyed that I wanted the doors painted black (I'm paying him to do the work, right?) and then the door painting was a bit half-assed. I am still touching up doors and because enough coats weren't put on the finish is inconsistent. And, the big clincher... while Jeff and his two guys were painting, about half a bottle of Rx Percocet and a third of a bottle of Rx Tylenol 3 disappeared. Noticed a few gone the first day they were there but thought it was my imagination, so looked again the next night and TONS were missing. After that hid the bottles but who does that? So... I would highly recommend hiding money/meds/etc if you do hire these guys. I have no idea which one it was as they were in and out of the back bathrooms but there is no other explanation for those meds going missing. I find this very sketchy.
