Mostad Home Improvement

The first day he was supposed to arrive, he was late. Then he had some personal issues that prevented him from coming back until a couple weeks later. He did all the prep work but we had to wait over 2 weeks for him to return and finish painting the house. He brought a helper and I felt that they did a rush job to complete it that day. I went into a second floor room to make sure they didn't miss any details, and had to knock on the window to get the helper's attention because he missed a section of the trim. On the front of the house, we had different color trim and he "forgot" to finish painting the gutters, so at the end of the day we pointed it out and he promptly sent his helper up to the second floor to finish it. By the time he left it was getting dark and hard to tell if everything had been done, but we paid him because it seemed he had completed the job. A few days later a neighbor called to show us that from her back yard she could see he hadn't glazed some of the windows on our 2nd floor sunporch (as stated in the contract). A couple months later I tried to open the dining room door to outside (we never use it) only to find that he had essentially painted it shut. Same with the storm door on the back door - I cannot remove the screen to replace it with glass for the winter. I tried calling but the phone number he gave us no longer works. He does have a PA license (#090252) but I was unable to find any valid, current contact information. I filled out a report to the Attorney General's office but they were unable to do anything about it because they were not able to locate him. DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN! Although the work was slightly less than OK, he is not a very trustworthy businessman. We would not hire him again.
