**Current based upon performance/results up to this point in time Jason contacted me after I filled out a general request for estimates online. When he came over to give me the estimate he told me he charges $75 for estimates outside of a certain radius. This was never disclosed beforehand; the first time I was aware he charged for estimates was after he arrived at my home and after the estimate had been done. I ended up going with him because his reviews online were okay, he really is a nice guy, it's a locally owned business, he and I were able to come to an agreement on a price, and I had already given him $75 (which he said would be deducted from the final amount if I went with him). I hired him to paint two rooms for me. Just painting the walls and not trim or ceilings and nothing too fancy. One room was all the same color and the second room had one accent wall in a dark blue and then the other three walls a lighter blue. Pros: -I think he legitimately is a nice guy trying to run his own business -Local, independent business -Does try to work with customers to compromise on price Cons: -Did not make me aware that he charged for estimates -Negotiated/compromised on a price but then made me feel guilty or like he was doing me a favor after the fact -Imprecise work. After he had initially "completed" the job there were large patches of white/jagged edges between the accent wall and adjoining walls as well as in multiple areas between the ceiling, trim, and painted walls. He has come back once to clean up these edges and now the patches of white are minimized but there are splotches of color on my white ceilings and white trim. The pictures attached to the review show spots of paint on the carpet in two pictures and all of the other pictures are where I marked spots (with small pieces of painters tape) that still need a second coat (white is showing through), where nail holes were not filled in, or drip marks. Jason and I are currently going back and forth on him coming back again to do a second coat of paint. His current position is that I need to pay him more to come back but I believe I paid for a job that he has yet to complete. When we were first discussing he told me he wanted to make sure his customers were satisfied and said if I thought it needed a second coat he would do a second coat. He markets himself as a professional so I expected clean lines, no drip marks, and full thickness coats of paint. Unfortunately this has not been my experience with him.

Perfect Jason was very professional and reasonable I will recommend him to anyone
