We had an appointment for Alex to visit our Sunriver home and give me a quote on sanding 1 bedroom wall, then painting the rest in 1 color. He said if I agreed on the quote, which "would be very reasonable", he would plan on doing the work the same day and he would be bring 1 other person with him to help. The day before the appointment, he called and said he just found out company was coming for the 4th of July week and asked again about the scope of the work. We went over it again. He said, I haven't seen the room yet, but it'll be $800 to sand one wall (for wallpaper) and $3500 to sand and paint the bedroom. I told him it's not a very large bedroom and 3 walls encompass windows, doors, closets so only 1 wall is a full wall to paint and no trim. I questioned why $2,700 to paint a small bedroom one color. He started telling me about the costs of owning one's business is expensive etc... I agreed on the $800 to just sand and I would paint myself. He agreed and confirmed arrival at 10am the next day. After we unloaded the entire bedroom to prepare for the sanding, HE NEVER SHOWED UP! I called twice and texted once over a 3 hour period to ask if he'd kindly tell me when he's available, if today wasn't going to work. I still haven't heard back from him. We are so disappointed in putting our faith and time into Alex when he sounded so nice and professional up until the day before. OBVIOUSLY ALEX CANNOT BE TRUSTED TO EVEN SHOW UP FOR A JOB LET ALONE COMMUNICATE WHEN HE DOESN'T WANT TO. EXTREMELY UNRELIABLE! Update: after posting this review, Alex left me a voicemail as I was on another call with a new contractor. Alex said, "Thanks for the review, but I don't do jobs for under $1,500 as I pay my help $45/hr and I don't do jobs for free. I only do quality work and if you want to pay that little, you should find someone off Craigslist." He continued on saying, "I believe in Jesus Christ and I know he'll see to it to take care of what others want for you." He concluded by saying, "I reject your review and will reply to it." Needless to say, I'm thinking it was a blessing he didn't show up. I have no words on why he agreed to do a job, he set the price of $800, I agreed to it, then he decided to not show up or communicate until I gave this review. Buyer beware of this one! read more
