Michael M.
Jan 2013
I have had several jobs performed by Polcor LLC and have found that the subs they use are not sufficiently vetted and properly supervised by the owners, Michael and Sebastion Szczesnowicz; subsequently the outcome of the work performed is less than satisfactory. Their so called professional carpenter, who commanded $1200 for the day, used lessor quality wood for framing entrance ways instead of matching the existing quality of a recent renovation thereby cutting corners to maximize his profit.
It would have just cost him a few dollars for better materials from the $1200 for the day.
The aforementioned owners ignored my e-mails requesting a review of their subs shoddy work preparing my dining room for paint and
their subs dry walling over a junction box receptacle (bills/photos attached). The ignored e-mails are noted below this review. In addition to the aforementioned, the company previously deliberately padded the dry wall square footage for the contracted powder room and failed to refund the correct funds from a change order from pocket door to standard door. The money owed for the pocket door change out is approximately $169 and the over charge for drywall ordered per contract and not installed was $303.50. These moneys were requested of Polcor by the writer but the company refused citing that they had to make money and that they had done some things for gratis. Due to this circumstance, Sebastion from Polcor called off his friend, Dominic, the Kitchen painter from Euro Villa Co., whom I had contracted. I waited 3 weeks for the job to start, Dominic the painter cancelled the last minute due to pressure from Polcor. The Dry wall figures below were reviewed by another contractor, e-mails follow.
Inside Bathroom Dimensions:
Length: 82" = 6''-10" round up to 7' long (84")
Width 36" = 3'-0"
Ceiling Sq Footage is 7'x3' = 21 Sq Ft.
Wall Sq Footage (Inside Dimensions of Room):
Long Wall (top) is 7' x 8' High = 56 sq ft.
Long Wall (bottom) is 7' x 8' High = 56 sq ft.
Short Wall (right side) is 3' x 8' High = 24 sq ft.
Short Wall (left side) is 3' x 8' High = 24 sq ft.
___________________________________________
Subtotal for Inside of Room 160 sq.ft.
Wall Sq. Footage (Outside Dimensions of Room):
Long Wall (bottom) is 7.5' x 8' High = 60 sq. ft.
Side Wall (right) is 3.5' x 8' High = 28 sq. ft.
____________________________________________
Subtotal for Outside of Room 88 sq. ft.
Grand Total for Walls/Ceiling:
21 + 160 + 88 = 269 sq. ft. say 270 sq. ft.
Polcor's Own Figures are incorrect - the line items listed add up to 376.19, not 369.37.
The Cost Estimate in Question is to determine the cost to perform the
DRYWALL activity of construction; therefore the last two line items of
their estimate do not jive:
Plaster Removal & Disposal - this is a demo activity and has already been accounted for elsewhere.
Re-Frame
(1) Wall - This is the supposed cost to provide the studs in the former
pass thru opening between the kitchen and the bar area. Being a framing
cost, it should be accounted for elsewhere in the estimate, as it is
not a drywall activity, its a framing activity. After eliminating the
last 2 line items, Polcor's estimate is still 15 square feet too much:
285- 270 = 15.
Cost Estimate for Drywall Installation
Supply and Install Drywall = $2.50 per sq ft x 270 sq ft = $675.00
Tape and Sand for Paint Ready = $2 per sq ft x 270 sq ft = $540.00
Total $1,215.00
Polcor's Estimate 1,518.50
Refund Due to Mike $303.50
Refund Due to Mike $303.50

Subject: Re:Dining Room Prep. for Paint Job
To: [email protected]
Mike, Painting Service of No. VA., INC took one look at the dining room prep for paint
job you guys charged me $800 for and told me most of it all had to be
redone as they ran my hands along all the uneven surfaces, poor plaster
job, etc. I have not filed complaints on your business as others have
done. You have DPOR history, etc. I am considering filing a consumer
affairs complaint as well as a BBB complaint if this job is to remain as
is. I have to pay all over again to prep the room to catch everything
your guys missed. I have not as yet rated your company on the web,
Angie's, Checkbook, etc, etc. The job for this room starts next
Wednesday. Call me ahead. You can meet my painter Ruben at the house and
then decide for yourself. You can cover my additional cost to prep this
room again. Tell me within 2 days if you are going to honor your
contract with me for coverage due to shoddy work.
Respectfully,
Michael M

Michael,I deeply regret that you did not have the decency to contact me and so I
have taken the liberty to contact your insurance agent. I now have a
claim number. I will escalate this matter to what ever level it may take
until I get resolution. If your insurance does not cover this I will
take you to court, NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT!!..
This
matter will, and I repeat will cost you more in the long run. Please
come to your senses and own up to your responsibi
