Review content:
After collecting nearly 60% of payment and completing only 15% of the job, MRP Painting failed to honor their agreement and left the job.\r
\r
After receiving several bids, I hired MRP Painting to paint the complete interior of my house. We agreed upon a total price of $4,042.00 to be paid when the project was complete. Before painting was to begin, I mentioned to the owner (Monte Perez) that I wouldn't be ready to paint until the week of March 21st as I was still completing some basic homeowner repairs. He insisted that he could work around us and begin painting the week of March 14th. He was very persistent in wanting to start that week. Little did I know at the time I was a fill in project for him.\r
\r
Over the next two days the Monte and several workers (I cannot verify if they were actually his workers/employees or if he was paying them on the side) came into my house and painted the ceilings of five rooms and painted the walls on two bedrooms. I have 16 rooms to paint including a basement\r
\r
MRP haphazardly used my storage area in the basement to prep and prepare the homes doors for painting. Monte never laid plastic on the concrete or on the plumbing pipes and duct work. I went downstairs with a witness and noticed that Monte had sprayed the concrete floor. I was angry. He said that, ""Most homeowners don't mind if we paint their concrete."" I minded and asked him to remove the paint from the concrete. The following day he continued to paint the doors and the concrete after I asked him not to paint the floors anymore. Monte's offered solution was to paint the floors that he ruined with enamel paint. This solution was not acceptable to me. \r
\r
After the end of day three Monte presented me a bill me a bill to pay $2,299.00, though the agreement was to pay the bill in full when the work was completed. During our initial conversation he mentioned that he took credit cards. However, when I presented my credit card to him he said he could only take them through PayPal. \r
\r
I paid some of the bill through PayPal. The following week Monte kept badgering me for payment of the remaining portion of the bill he gave me. ( I remind you that the agreement was to pay when the job was complete and per painting contract law the job has to be completed satisfactorily which it wasn't. ) \r
\r
For over three days kept asking me to put CASH in the front door so he could pay his painters. He was even telling me how to get the money. (Sounded very shady to me)\r
\r
The evening before returning to paint Monte came over around 7:45pm. In front of three witnesses, I gave him his balance and Monte told me, in front of everyone else, that he would be at the house the next morning Thursday at 7:30am to continue painting. The next morning I was there at 7:30am and Monte didn't show. At 8:15am I left a message for Monte to call me. No return message. I looked at my email and to my surprise an email with no subject line was sent the night before from MRP Painting that said the following. ""Thanks for the opportunity to paint your house. Unfortunately we will not be returning tomorrow. We left you in good standing with all the paint left at your house. . . Please don't call or respond."" I called Monte and asked him to call me (he still never has) so we could come to an agreement on how to settle the matter since he had ample face-to-face time the previous evening to tell me he was going to WALK OFF THE JOB. \r
\r
He never responded until I received a myriad of texts from him threatening that he was going to call the building inspector (his buddy) to shut my project down. And in one text he wrote, ""Do you mind if I open your lock box and come on over and let the inspector in?"" After receiving this text I filed a report with the Westminster Police Department. \r
\r
This behavior is not of a business professional. I do not recommend this individual for any kind of painting job.\r
