Update on Misty House

Filed under: For Sale — Tiffany @ 2:00 pm

My crew for Heart House is going to move to Misty House as soon as the siding is on Heart House. A minor setback but at least I have a detail minded crew on the job. If any of you know me, you know how detail orientated I am - especially when it comes to finish work. If it isn’t straight - it isn’t right. Thankfully - Jeff has this same mentality. I will be posting some pictures of Misty house this week so you can see our progress. The house is less than a week from completion - just need to get back on track after working with Five Star Painting and Home repair.

This is Fives Star Painting and Home Repair’s craigslist post…BEWARE.

You can expect the following to happen to you:

1. They broke into my property on numerous occassions and took our personal property and knocked over valuable items after being fired
2. Brian (one of Eric’s “most trusted people”) stole materials from our jobsite
3. They have people with warrants working for them
4. Eric went on vacation the day after I paid him. Several of his contractors as of today still have not been paid
5. Eric’s team is sloppy and broke several expensive items while doing the repairs to include knocking down the face of a chimney and breaking various things to include a brand new bath tub
6. Eric hires random people from Craigslist and invites them into your home without any background checks

I really liked Eric, he talks a great talk but when it comes down to execution of the job or managing himself or his team…things failed miserably. I am really sad this is how this turned out, I was hoping to use Eric and his team on many other projects. I am glad I found out now how truly bad these guys are.
