It remains a nightmare, and is not settled. The contract that was drawn up specifically stated the colors of paint that took a lot of thought to select (see above list). When I walked into the condo the first day of painting, I immediately noticed that what was to be the Benjamin Moore CafĆ© Royal #1130 paint, that covers all walls but the bathrooms, had a very noticeable pink tinge to it. BM CafĆ© Royal #1130 paint has a yellow tinge as its base. When I complained about the wrong paint being used, I got an angry excuse from Eric, the coordinator, or whatever he was, of the project, saying that the paint I wanted was too expensive so they got Sherwin Williams colors that weren't even close to what I wanted. WOW!!! There was no discussion at all. He said it would cost more to get the BM paint I wanted, so he took it upon himself to proceed HIS way. I wanted to get this done so I agreed to more money, but was told by my trustee that I shouldn't have done that because the correct colors were stated in the contract, and were identified as BM paint, and I had no reason to doubt that they wouldnāt be used. I shouldnāt have to pay for what I was supposed to get in the first place. PLUS, at no time was the cost of the paint brought up as being more than budgeted (there wasnāt a budget, per se). I had movers that were scheduled at the time, and it was a very tense situation to get the job done, and have dry paint, before they brought in the furniture. After consideration under duress, the Benjamin Moore paint was supposed to be used as a planned second coat the next day. A BM rep said that paint of a different hue needs to settle for at least a week before a second is applied so the paints donāt have time to mingle unappealingly. So much for the plan, but I found that out after, not before. I didn't feel right, but asked for proof that the number of cans of Benjamin Moore paint that was needed for the entire condo were actually purchased. I was given some runaround as an excuse that paperwork like that isn't available as "someone else" bought the paint for them to use? A receipt was eventually produced with one can going back as it wasnāt needed. Allegedly, the second coat was applied, but to my trained "color" eye, it wasn't, as the dreaded pink was still present on the main walls and in the basement office area. There are some other things that donāt quite pass muster as well: 1) The painter who owns the company that was hired leaned up against the wall that was supposed to have been painted the second coat earlier that day, and it didnāt smear or get on his clothes at all; 2) I noticed that the wall socket plates were back in their proper places (too soon after painting earlier?), but upon checking them, paint was bone dry, not fresh as it still should have been, and no paint came off on those wall plates; and, 3) one can of BM paint was sent back, but if they had ordered the correct amount of paint for the second coat to match what they had ordered when they got Sherwin Williams paint, then what did they NOT paint the second coat of the correct paint? There are so many things wrong here, along with the lack of trust in general, Iām deducting any addition of BM paint to my bill since thereās no justification in paying for something that I had no reason to think I wasnāt getting because it was specifically stated, plus I donāt trust what is there now. It left a sick stomach and I am going to have someone more reliable redo the job with the paint I was supposed to get. Total cost was supposed to be $2,000, but I am reducing it significantly, but allowing for the bathrooms that seem to match what I wanted. This is what a trustee and an attorney are for as it was too much for me at that point. We havenāt come to a decision but I had already stopped payment on my check that involved painting services earlier. I had planned this move for a long time, and the colors were consistent no matter where I ended up. They were embedded in my brain. I didn't expect a disaster of this caliber. If you hire Ace Home Services for anything, I'm not sure painting should be considered in the list of things that they should do, especially if Eric is in charge of any of it. If you have worked **** ** your color decisions, you deserve a respect that he canāt seem to muster with his poor communication skills. That guy will screw up white paint, and there are at least 723 shades of white, so that would be a very interesting battle.
