He didn't really know how to do drywall finishing and was more interested in just painting over the areas that needed drywall repair. He did not mix up the paint so the walls are multiple colors, didn't use the roller liner so got little bits and crumbs in the paint all over the wall that needed to be scraped off and all the walls need to be repainted, didn't use the plastic on the new floor and got drywall plaster footprints all over the new floor, and cut up a whole 8' piece of trim and it all went to waste because he couldn't get the angles right. The drywall finishing was the main reason for hiring him. Also, on the first day he arrived, he demanded 50% down, which was not communicated prior or we would not have hired him. We wanted to see what kind of job he would do before we paid him that much money. We paid him $100 at the end of the day and he wanted the remainder of the 50% down the next day. At the end of the first day, with the mess he left and the money he cost us, we decided to text him and let him know that we would not need him to return. He called to ask why and my husband gave him several examples, but I'm not sure how much he understood due to the language barrier. We told him we would set his tools that he left there out on the front porch. He did not come and get them for 2 days, so I brought them in each night for fear that they could possibly be stolen. He did finally pick them up. Lesson learned, make sure someone has a rating before hiring them.
