Painters

Surpassed our expectations. Very impressed with their attention to details

Mr Bardin has an eye for color and can match anything. If the color isn't what you expected, he will work with you on getting it right.

Great price along with friendly and quick service. We will definitely use again in the future.

Joe came out for a bid and seemed quite friendly and reasonable during the bid he made it sound like my concerns were no problem. Take down the curtains? No problem! Patch all the holes? Done! Remove the plant hooks? Sure! Paint and hang up the closet doors currently in the basement? Absolutely! I was excited he promised to do the job done quickly and within our tiny budget. The first day the painters arrived polite and on time. They got to work busily painting the second floor. My husband and I took turns checking in over the two days they painted. The first day problems started. After the painters left I did a walk through and noticed empty fast food containers left in closets. Heaps of empty sheet rock buckets (from another job) left in our driveway. Cans of semi-full cans of paint were sitting out totally opened. Painters had parked their trucks on our lawn (our street has no curb) leaving huge tire marks and killing our grass. I didn't say anything. I figured they would clean up the next day. I figured the paint being open was an oversight. They never cleaned up. They always left paint open. They washed paint brushes in my bathroom sink rather than in the basement. Then I noticed that things that were verbally agreed on during the bid were not getting done. When I mentioned this to Joe he suddenly got amnesia about it and referred me to the terms of the contract. I complained to Joe bitterly and after spending the better part of two weeks hounding him and leaving countless messages he finally sent a painter out to spend the day doing touch ups. Only this painter (for reasons I still don't understand) left halfway through the touch ups. This led to another two weeks of even more persistent hounding since Joe was now ducking my calls. Finally, Joe came out and half heartily did some of the work. He argued with me the entire time and still never finished the job. I should have never used TDS Quality Painting. I have filed a complaint with the BBB but their license is already revoked so I doubt they will respond or care. I'm speaking to a lawyer about taking them to small claims court. This company should be out of business. Joe is a liar and he will rip you off. He sailed right past my $1,500.00 with an additional $500.00 for paint. Our final bill was $2,890.00 and $700.00 for paint. (Joe bought over too much paint. I had 14 cans of mostly full of paint leftover!) Joe claims he had to do multiple coats of paint throughout most of the house. Which increased the price. Yet when I walk around my home all I see are signs of a rushed and sloppy paint job. They never sanded the trim so the new paint is already chipping. There are dried paint drips on the walls. I had to buy goof off to clean all the spattered paint off my hardwood floors. Things that were suppose to be painted like my closet doors and ceilings clearly were not painted. Things that had been agreed upon during the initial bid were never done. I still have plant hooks. I still have curtain hardware. Throughout the entire ordeal Joe was rude and mean. He left voicemail messages cussing me out. He sent me rude emails. On phone calls he would make rude and insensitive statements. On more than one occasion the stress and vulgarity reduced me to pool of tears. If I complained about his bad customer service he would play dumb and claim he had no knowledge of being rude. Please don't make my mistake! No mater how small your budget you are better off with another painter. Heck, if you must, get some friends together and throw a paint party. Trust me you will be much happier with the results and save yourself a lot of stress.
