Nice guy but very disappointed with the sloppy workmanship- though it may not be intentional as we pointed out the rough bits and he couldn't see them. He thought it would be several day's work but was here 8.5 days- underestimating the job and not quoting accordingly. Didn't use masking tape and are left with very rough edges along the wall and scotia/skirting. Unfortunately when we asked him to use masking tape it wasn't low adhesive and has pulled paint off even when very gingerly removing. We ended up asking him to leave the job incomplete. We are currently sanding, masking and re-painting most of what was done. We're considering pulling off the wallpaper and re-doing that too, as there are mismatched patterns, tears and peeling edges on every wall. Overall very disappointed- wish we'd carried on with the renovations ourselves.

"Sally was a very nice lady to deal with. But unfortunately her small 2 bedroom house was over cluttered and I just did not have the space and area that I needed and had to continusely keep moveing there belongings around the room to get to the walls etc, they didn't have a shed that I could store their belongings in so the overall job was very disapointing for not only to them but myself the lighting allso was very bad with no light at all in the stairwell"
