"Overall, I graded the job a C because the finished product is a C.
The leader of the crew that did the work told me that I had purchased two men for 6-8 hours, and that he was contracted by Cobalt to perform the work, that he did not work for Cobalt. There was not mention of 6-8 hours in the posting, and I was immediately feeling uncomfortable about what exactly I had purchased. I bought a crew of "painters", not the support and oversight of a professional painting company.
We had scheduled the work a week in advance, and the day of the job, there was rain in the forecast. I suggested we re-schedule, but was told that he was booked for at least the next week, and that it was not raining now, and "why don't we get started."
In advance, I was told to get a gallon of paint, and a gallon of thinner. I assumed the paint would be brushed or rolled. Was not told that I would also need to provide masking suppliers and several gallons paint. I did buy a few drop clothes, and had a few rolls of masking tape, but was not prepared for masking to spray. So, let the painters use 6 mil poly to mask, and had a giant amount of trash in front of my house when done. (Could have been neatly rolled up, but that would have taken extra time, and was made worse because one of the painters lost his phone and thought it might be in side the plastic wrap).
The rain came about 1/3 of the way through the paining. They came back the next day to finish, and "sort of" addressed water issues by repainting. There was a serious hurry to get done and on to the next job, so there were a lot of missed spots. There should have been two coats applied. They came back a few weeks later to repaint the missed spots, and the job is complete. The quality is okay, but well below the original paint job, and would definitely not impress anyone. The ironic part.. I had a quote to have the work done, for $50 less than the Angie's list deal. I thought that I would get more for my 16 hours of work, but did not. I did not like the pay before the work is done and hope it gets done right."
