Painter quit as he thought that we were "over the top " regarding paint /filler dust being over our on covered furniture and tear in fabric of our bed.
Can't wait to start vacc-ing the Red velour lounge.

Had to read this twice to work out you were talking about a tradie, not some forum member who had the suits about something we'd posted.

I've had a busy day and I'm tired. That's my excuse.

Well, we've been looking at this guys "work. Taken a heap of pics and had 4 other painters in to look at & give estimate on redo plus finish what hasn't been touched. We were 99.9% correct in describing it as a joke.
1 straight said can't do anything next year but will look - " I feel sorry for you".
Another would give price for untouched but not the other, " add at least the then some for that ". Young guy went " faarrkk" when he found some fault and the last went "shhiitt ! , oh shit " when he saw a fault.
3 Lounges, otterman, and bed all pro cleaned. Some paint still on items,

Let the fun begin, we've had the demanding emails, the 43 calls in 1hr 10min & 18 in 8 mins and the legal threat.
