<div>Personal Review of incompleted house painting job. Our house was to be painted by Maintenance Men (of Howick) A 1st coat was applied, but some places by the apex near the roof were initially left unpainted. We were told that more paint was obtained, but that it was a different shade! Dean then told us in writing, I quote “The shop gave me the wrong colour and they won’t change it, it is not my problem it’s your problem” The places that were initially left unpainted than got a 1st coat of the different shade. They asked us to supply some white enamel paint when theirs was finished. Preparation was questionable as in some places crack filler was only applied after the 1st coat was applied. We also told him the gutters and barge boards had not been given a 2nd coat and the down pipes had not been painted properly. The top of some walls also had not been painted. The painting job was done carelessly and unprofessionally. Paint has been spilled/splashed in various places which still has not been cleaned up. It appears masking tape was not used to mask off places that should have been kept clean of paint. I would not recommend this company for any painting work.</div>
