So far, all he has done is remove the wall paper, paint the ceiling, paint the door casings, and one coat in the bedroom. His painting is not very good. I like his work, but I don't like his painting. I paid him up front for the work and he hasn't completed it. This has been going on since April. He also wants cash up front, not a check, which I do not like and makes me wonder why.
Description of Work
I hired this man to redo my bathroom and paint my bedroom. He was supposed to remove all the old wallpaper and glue, repaper the walls, repaint the door facings, install two new closet doors, two new linen doors, and install drawers and doors on my vanity, install a new heating vent grill.

Initially I was pleased with his work. On 8/12 he installed a back door & a screen door. Since he has installed the doors I have been presented with a bigger safety hazard than before. At the ripe old age of 78 I cannot afford to be tripping over the threshold every time I leave the house. My daughter called on my behalf & he said he felt sorry for me and that he was trying to save me money. I got another quote for $250; he charged $402 so I was not concerned with price but rather with getting the job done right. He charges an additional $10 if you write a check & prefers to be paid in cash. He told me he would come back and fix the door (his mistakes!) for $150; my daughter got him down to $100 and I agreed to pay him even though they were his mistakes. He canceled on me today for the third time. He has a very violent temper; he has threatened to take me to court if I change my report on Angie's List. All I want is my door fixed.

George was hired by the customer to replace an exterior door and storm door. He gave the customer a price of $350 cash for labor only. The bank charges a $10 fee to cash a check. Customer wanted the job done ASAP. George went over on a Sunday morning to do the job. Pick up the customer took her to the store to pick up the doors and supplies at no charge to her. The room is out of alignment, he told her that, & needed to raise the corner of the thresh hold 3/4" for the new door to fit. She agreed she wanted it to be done the cheapest way possible. When George was done with the job he had the member go in & out of the door several times to make sure everything was good and she said it was. A week later He got a call from her daughter telling him that they were not happy with the job and that he needed to fix it, if he did not they would blacklist his name on Angie's List. She said he did not know what he was doing and he should have hung the door as it was. He told her he could not do that. She said that he should have cut the door; George said that he could not cut a steel door. He told the daughter that he would come out & put in a new thresh hold but would charge $150, the new thresh hold was not part of the contract, they agreed on $100. George did have to cancel his appt. 2 times with the customer. The morning of his appt. he called her to confirm and she was very rude so he did not go. The customer wants work done that was not part of the contract at no charge.

He was extremely rude to me. He thought I should be thankful that he called me back because no one ever does. He gave me this estimate without even seeing the work. He also asked me what other estimates I'd received.
Description of Work
Estimate: $250. I called him for an estimate.
