Call today and will be there tomorrow !252-489-0444 or 757-713-7322 Interior and exterior painting, pressure washing, drywall repairs, popcorn ceiling removal. Here to always help, to serve, and provide top-quality work. I have been in this field of work for 17 years experience, and enjoy it every day. I have been running my own small business for the past 8 years and look to grow in this beautiful town. I am very dedicated and take pride in my work. At a young age, I learned to appreciate and value the meaning of good work that's done right.
"Wade and I discussed a project to paint the exterior of my home and he gave me a quote of 17K. I also obtained 5 additional quotes which I shared with him. After I agreed to move forward with him, he increased the original quote to 24K, to match the highest quote. I still decided to move forward and hired him for the job. I paid the 12K deposit he asked for to start the exterior paint job. On day 2, he increased the price again by 6K, saying one wall of cedar couldn’t be repaired and needed to be replaced. This was brought to his attention by his helper. I was shocked at Wade’s negligence - that he, as the expert, wouldn’t have looked carefully enough or been knowledgable enough to see this while estimating. When I had questions, genuinely trying to understand the 6K price increase, Wade flew into a rage - yelling, cussing and name calling and said to me “all you home owners care about is your petty money and don’t understand that things come up.” While I understand sometimes unpredicted expenses do arise, being able to discuss and explain and have a respectful dialogue is absolutely required and how it was addressed was completely rude and disrespectful. This was the final red flag for me as a consumer, and after much consideration, I decided something felt very “off” and I did not want to continue to be insulted or taken advantage of anymore. I asked Wade not to proceed, and asked for a refund of my 12K deposit. Unfortunately, he had already spent the funds elsewhere, on items unrelated to my exterior paint job. Due to no other recourse options available, I was forced to open a dispute with my credit card company that they found in my favor and I was able to get my 12K back after their investigation process. Good grief - steer clear!!"
