Peter Cagner at ""A Cut Above Painters"" was hired by myself to paint my house on 9/30/2013. At first, Peter seemed nice and professional, but I was fooled. When Peters crew started painting my house, they injected what appeared to be white caulking into the settling cracks on the stucco. They then painted primer over the cracks and rubbed it with their fingers to spread it out. Once the house was painted, Peter and his crew were in a big rush to get out of here. I told them I was having dinner with my family, but still they kept rushing me to come outside so that I could pay them and have them leave. I did not get a chance to do a walkthrough to notice the paint running down my driveway, the overspray on my garage door, the timer for my backyard lights hanging halfway off the wall etc. I had pointed out to Peter that there were several areas on my house that the texture didn't match after they painted my house (these were the areas that his employees filled with white caulking like material). Peter said ""give it 7 to 10 days, and once the paint is dried, it will go away."" I waited several days, and called Peter to come fix it. At that point, Peter was always on other jobs (supposedly), and never had time to come back out. Over a week and a half or more, Peter finally had one of the painters (Who Peter Claimed Was Living At His House) to come over and spray the stucco on the areas where they filled with a caulking like material. Since then, Peter has not showed back up to fix my house. I was texting with him on a Sunday because his service is the most unprofessional experience I have ever had. Peter said, he was going to come Wednesday, but since I was bothering him, now he was going to come Saturday. What a loser. They stated my house on 9-30-2013 and today is the 26th of October, and my house still has white stucco sprayed all over it, and Peter will not come back to fix it now that he has his money. Buyer Beware - it appears that Peter has his license suspended on the California State License Board for failure to comply with an outstanding civil judgement. I can only assume, he has done this to people more than one time. If I were you, I would run the other way, and hire someone who has a license in good standing. I would bet that Peter will do this again to someone. Don't let it be you.\r
