had a house painter come and work on my home. The agreement was 00 for the home everything included, 5 year warranty, have it in writing. As soon as he left (he worked for 1 day prepping and then 4 hours total doing the house) we found over 40 areas that needed to be redone. He then came back twice to do them. Then we saw that one entire side was peeling between the siding grooves. He said its the wood delaminating and the SW guy agreed (his personal friend from SW not a third party source in my opinion). He said he will come back, apply a anti-delaminating agent, and repaint entire side. Well, we told him that the front know has all of his 12+ touch ups showing and we need those boards repainted as well. Took him 10 days to get back with us, says he is really busy this time of year and doesn’t have time to keep running back and forth and fixing the issues. He wants us to pay 1300 and he said "I’ll cut my losses" He is insured and has an amazing record on the BBB. He said he’ll keep the warranty but I’m like how will you keep it if you wont even finish the job?

Is that a fair amount? We are left with one side to redo ourselves plus about 20 boards on the front that need redoing thanks to "mismatched touchups"?

DO I PAY OR PAY NOTHING? WE CAN FINISHED THE JOB OURSELVES AND HE IS AT ABOUT HALF THE BID FOR ABOUT 70% of work finished
my letter to him that i might send today
At this point I believe that Mark and I really doesn’t feel comfortable letting you or your workers back over at our house. I also can’t take Friday afternoon off now because of short notice.

I think we are willing to take the 00 you offered last night on the phone to have you walk away MINUS the board for deck that had a chunk out of it (10 bucks) and the solar light broken (20 dollars since they don’t come in anything other than sets)

I’m will give you a check for 70 tomorrow if you still want it and we can call it a day. I know you said the warranty will still be in effect and that’s nice of you to offer. If you mean that -then if something major comes up and you actually show up and fix it, we know that you kept your word. I wouldn’t necessarily refer you to anyone but I will not stain your reputation or file any complaints or anything like that if you are willing to keep the warranty , understanding that there has been issues with the work and now we have to redo almost two sides ourselves.

Mark is going to have to fix the side himself now and it’d be nice if we could get the paint we need at your prices. That would probably be the last thing we’d want from you is to call in an order for another 5 gallons of paint at your contractor price and then we could go pick it up at the SW in Gardner tomorrow or this weekend. This would be a nice gesture on your part considering we are time crunch and half to get that side finished before we leave for vacation for a long while, in which there will be rain that will get into those boards.

It ‘s disappointing that you called us in such a haste and made it sound like our house isn’t worth your time. It was amazing how quickly you walked away from 00 profit and didn’t even blink. We have been nothing but polite and VERY patient with you through all the mistakes, no show for appts, incorrect work, and other issues we went through. We have not been picky, verbally rude, or demanding. If you would have just told us that you were busy for the next week we would have said fine lets work something out when we get back from vacation. But instead you called us angry a week after I tried to get ahold of you, told us you don’t care about finishing and offered the 00 to walk away. We were in shock.
I am not picky. About 70% of the work has been done and now a side has to be completely redone, scrapped, primed, and repainted. Another side needs to be completely repainted

for the Sun of our Solar system was not lit until the 4th day….

Could this be the true light of Day, which the Creator revealed to Job here ?

What awesome things does our Light~Giver and Knowledge~Revealer bring to Light here ?

12 Have you commanded the morning since your days; and caused the Dayspring to KNOW HIS PLACE;
13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
15 And from the wicked their light is withheld, and the high arm shall be broken.
16 Have you entered into the springs of the sea? or have you walked in the search of the depth?
17 Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or have you seen the doors of the shadow of death? Job 38

Is this also God the Father revealing the Eternal Purpose of His Son….the Resurrection and the Life of the True Light and Dayspring from on High ?

Is it HIS PLACE to take hold of the ends of the earth and SHAKE wickedness out like dirt on a rug?

77 To give knowledge of salvation unto his people by the remission of their sins,
THROUGH THE TENDER MERCY of our God; whereby THE DAYSPRNG from on high has visited us,

hmmm….Interestingly the word here for "VISITED US" is ἐπισκέπτομαι (episkeptomai)
1.) to look upon or after, to inspect, examine with the eyes
1.a.) in order to see how he is, i.e. to visit, go to see one
1.a1.) the poor and afflicted, the sick
1.b.) to look upon in order to help or to benefit
1.b1.) to look after, have care for, provide for: of God
1.c.) to look (about) for, look out (one to choose, employ, etc.)

Could this also be why Every DAY that His Light "came to pass" in the Beginning…..God SAW….and it was GOOD !

Aren’t you Glad that the Most High is LOOKING out for each of us, through His tender mercy ?

78 Through the tender mercy of our God; whereby the dayspring from on high hath visited us,
79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.
80 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, and was in the deserts till the day of his showing unto Israel.
Luke 1:78
