Negative stars! I hired him to repair plaster walls. At the est he explained the use of fiberglass tape. I told him I would bill pay his deposit to him since I don't use checks. He was ok with it. He gave me a date a few weeks out. The night before I called to confirm and see if he wanted me to do to prep for his arrival. He sounded surprised, like he forgot about the job, but did arrive the next day. When I stopped home at lunch to see the progress, he seemed awkward . I asked him if he also does outdoor painting, to which he said he did. He said is this for you? I replied yes. He told me to call someone else and made a recommendation. It was very obviously at that point that he didn't want to work for me. The job started Thurs, continued to Friday and he planned on finishing on Monday, although he made it sound like a hassle. Monday came and I returned from work as he was starting to load his things in his truck. I swear he saw me as I was 5 feet away from him. I could tell from his body language that he was upset about something as he was slinging his stuff around. I was walking behind him about 5 feet and said hello and got no response. He went back in the house & slammed the door, literally with me a few feet away. I coughed it up to him having a hearing aid and maybe not hearing me but I KNOW he saw me. I gave him a few minutes before approaching him as he clearly was mad. He made several trips outside with his gear, haphazardly slinging it and slamming the door. After about 10 minutes or so I went in as he was "cleaning" up. I asked him a question about paint and also about the use of the fiberglass tape. My husband wanted to know if he did use it as it wasn't visible during any stages of the repair. Not only did he not make eye contact but he got real condescending and said " I used a whole roll is that good enough for you hon? I don't want to argue with you."..., real nasty. He continued to "clean" even more visibly angry at this point so I went on my porch as I felt uncomfortable in my own home. He finally left, yelling "it's all yours" before leaving. I went inside and found the bill laying there and thought how disrespectful that he couldn't even hand it to me, than proceeded to clean what he should have cleaned the remainder of the night. When I checked my phone later that evening he had sent a text telling me he left the bill and asking if I would be paying again by bill pay. The time was while he was still here! I responded the next day, told him I got it and would pay again with bill pay as I don't have checks. He asked when and I said now. I also told him that I felt disrespected by how he spoke to me. He did not respond until the weekend when he said he felt like I accused him, whatever. Dude was mad when I got there. The July 4th holiday came & by Monday he was texting me telling me he didn't get payment, to track it, call the bank etc. I screen shot the proof and reminded him there was a bank/mail holiday. He continued to press me for it texting constantly for 2 days! Each text got nastier. He accused me of not paying bills, threatening to come over to collect payment in cash, blah blah. At first I tried to be nice and reiterate what I had been saying all along. I told him it was very unprofessional to hound for payment. I even went as far as to send him a link explaining bill pay. I finally got ghetto on him and told him I would call the police to which he responded he didn't want the job anyway, than continued to text another full day. But I no longer responded. This man is the defination of unstable and clearly has either an addiction or gambling problem to hound someone for a measly $1000. I don't know how he stays in business with that attitude. I had to condense the story for space allowance but trust me, he is a wack job! read more
