This is for the Abi de review one star I was there when your incident occurred and your story is a…read morecomplete lie over exaggerated and did not happen. This is what really happened. Fuck you you call a AAA Painting Decorating on a Thursday and you wanted to paint job on a Saturday and Sunday do you wanted to custom color because out of the thousands of colors that Sherman Williams had to offer not one was one that you liked? You had to have a special one so all day Friday Sherman Williams was matching your special color at the end of the day Friday they were finally done And we picked up your paint for Saturday's paint job. You already had a contract that you had signed when I came to do the estimate, so there was no changing of prices numbers no changing of work that never happened. You had a signed contract that you agreed to and nobody change the price, what happened is you after we picked up the paint we called you and told you your paint was ready we're picking it up will see you Saturday morning hours later you called back and you said I wanna cancel the paint job. My husband wants to do the work and we said OK that's fine that happens no problem. Wish you would've gave us a little bit more time but there's not much we can do, now you have to pay for the paint we told her it's a special color if your husband's gonna do the painting over the weekend then here is your color just pay Sherwin-Williams. She agreed that her husband would meet me the following day at the Vadnais Heights's Sherwin Williams to pay for the 15 gallons of paint that she had special ordered. The bill was about $380, nobody ever text her again nobody ever threatened her that's all nonsense. It's a lie the following day we went to Sherwin-Williams at the time that we were supposed to meet your husband and he showed up on time. He wrote the check out to Sherwin Williams and told us that he apologized. His wife was trying to push him into a paint job that he did not wanna pay for, but now that he's this far he's going to try to paint it we all started laughing. It was four of us sitting there that are crewmembers and two managers from the Sherman Williams store at Vadnais Heights. The husband wrote the check we loaded his 15 gallons into his vehicle and our last words to him were good luck sir. If you're unable to finish it, call us back and we'll work something out for ya, and that was the last time we ever spoke to these people two weeks later Sherwin William calls and says hey you know that customer that wrote the check well it bounced do you know anything about him? I said no I don't know anything about them they said that they were going to take them to conciliation court for the $380 that they bounced their check for, I have nothing to do with it once they wrote the check to Sherwin Williams, then that contract was between Sherwin, Williams, and the person that wrote the check I'm sure they went after her credit and everything else over the bad Jack. The whole story is a lie. We didn't even know that this even existed. We still are painting and never even knew about this review, we stumbled across it because we had changed our website years back and we changed our telephone number into a commercial line. That's why this number and this website don't exist but we are still around. This review has had absolutely no effect on how we do business if you read the first review that was ever put on this yelp that's the real AAA Painting Decorating not Abby's version is a complete lie, I hope that Abby is feeling better with her mental health because I can see that times have changed for her since six years because I'm responding in 2023. I hope she's a better person and I really feel that she needs to apologize to us a AAA Painting Decorating and also to Jimmy's love Jimmy's best walleye fingers in town can't beat it can't even say one bad thing about Jimmy's to the five people that found her review helpful shame on you to even believe something that bizarre. If you still need a painter, look us up.

We hired this painter based on an estimate he gave to us.. after viewing our home. 12 hrs before…read morethe work was to begin he changed the quote and "upped the price". We immediately backed out of the job. He sent us 32 texts demanding we pay for the paint immediately (during a work day on Friday before a holiday weekend). Since we can't leave our jobs we were unable to meet his demands and he served us conciliation paperwork for the whole job. In my honest opinion this company is dishonest, rude, and I strongly do not recommend them.

Hartman Homes is awesome, don't be fooled by Shanna's poor review. If you do more research on her…read moreyou can see she is not credible and obviously is angry about something and taking it out over the internet. Hartman is professional and does quality work. You can see for yourselves by meeting with them in person and looking through the portfolios of work they have done. They even win several builds away from other builders. Do your research, know your facts, but don't listen to angry people venting their frustration on the internet today for work they had done many years ago and are probably equally to blame themselves.

We were very excited to build with Hartman. We thought we would get excellent advice, innovative…read moreapproaches, and top of the line construction. We wanted a contractor that would think of the things we would not think of... such as the space needed to open a door without it hitting other things, a clothes shoot wide enough where things wouldn't get stuck, closets in places we requested them to be, and how to utilize space efficiently. We have a huge storage room but our in floor heater, water softener, furnace, and air exchanger are so spread out that we cannot utilize the space. We thought that when we found issues with the house while it was being built they would be corrected but that was not the case. Instead we found ourselves arguing with the project manager over and over again until we gave in. Each time I'm in our Jack and Jill bathroom I think of the pocket door argument I had with the PM and I have some choice thoughts for him. The only person who added any value to the process was Julie - the interior designer they have on staff. We were also impressed with Brock Wise - who handled the HVAC. We really wish we would have gone with Lund builders. They were so much more attentive to our needs when we got estimates. We screwed up. We based our decision on the parade of homes rather than facts. Later we had talked with a person who did contract work for Hartman... they said that Hartman focuses on the Parade and gives little time to the rest.... that was our experience as well.

I've always been a fan of the outdoors and especially doing yard work. I remember trying to mow the…read morelawn as short as I could when I was growing up. Not so I wouldn't have to do it again soon but because I wanted the lawn to look like a golf green. After being scolded a few times by my parents I stopped trying to make our lawn look like a golf green or the outfield grass at a baseball field, and mowed it properly. As I grew up and eventually found my own home, that same passion continued. I like having our yard look nice. While we enjoy a variety of outdoor type stores, we have become fans of Zywiec's. Zywiec's is a family owned landscape and garden center located right off of Hwy 61 in Cottage Grove. We always try to support local establishments and love family owned placed. Zywiec's has been in business for over 30 years. They have all the usual products that you would need for landscaping and gardening. They also have hayrides, a corn maze and other activities. Their prices are very reasonable and we feel on some items they are almost underpriced. We have purchased mulch, rocks, bricks and grass seed to name a few items. Their service has always been fast and friendly. The hardest thing might just be trying to pronounce their name correctly. For some reason I just call them "Zoiks" from Scooby Doo. We've been here several times and we'll sure be back again soon.
