I will share the text exchange between Clayton and myself: Me: Are you available this week to give…read morean estimate at XXX? Clayton: Is it interior or exterior? ME; inside. Clayton: Tuesday afternoon. ME: We will see you tomorrow at XXX. I heard good things from folks at XXX store. CALYTON DOES NOT SHOW OR CALL me on Tuesday. When I text him I ask if he could come the next day (since he did not come on Tuesday). His reply was: Tomorrow before 12. I can make work if your there. ME: Sorry about your injury. Yes, before noon tomorrow would work. CLAYTON never shows or calls the second day in a row. I text him: Sorry you never made it to yesterday or today's appointment. We waited a total of 8 hour. I know things happen but communication is key. You could have and should have lets us know you were not coming. Our time is just as valuable as yours. We will be sure not to recommend you. CLAYTON: I'll be fine I promise you. And that was really mean. You could have called. ME: What the hell does that mean. CLAYTON: Be more pro active. I'm glad I'm not working for you. Go take your anger out on someone else. ME: You told me your would be here yesterday. I texted you. Then you said you would be here today by noon. CLAYTON: In other words F... off. Me: I should have called your?? You are nuts. CLAYTON: Go back to Texas. I have now blocked his number. I'm sure Clayton is capable of doing good work but he is not professional. I wish him luck with his business.

Clayton and his team painted our entire first floor in our home. His team did an excellent job; we…read moreare very pleased with the work completed. They completed the job in about 4 days, and even offered to touch up a previous accent wall we had painted! I highly recommend claytons painting!

This review is for Fortino Painting of Pueblo West. My…read moreproject consisted of the airless spraying of the exterior walls (all stucco), eaves, trim, etc. and exterior doors of my house, garage, and two other small outbuildings. There were numerous places that the paint was passable from one angle but light/non-existent from a different angle. Of course, I didn't discover these until days/weeks later but Joe wanted paid immediately. Don't pay him until you have thoroughly examined everything, EVERYTHING; otherwise once he's paid there's a good chance of you not seeing him again. They're not much good at brush work either. One door needed repainting, which they did but it looked (I have pics.) like it was repainted with cottage cheese. It took me hours to strip it down correctly, sand and then repaint it myself. The other main issue I have concerned approx. 150 sq. ft. of faux rock. It was painted but we both agreed that it would need another coat and that he would return, but not right away. I literally asked him to give me his "word-of-honor" (which he did) that if I paid him an additional $400 up front (which I did), he would return to complete this. It's been approx. 11 weeks since an initial call to him to return to fulfill our agreement. He said he would be contacting me to setup a day to return but hasn't contacted me and has since been ignoring/avoiding my attempts to contact him (calls/emails) to fulfill our verbal contract. Get everything in writing, as he will tell you whatever he thinks you want to hear! I honestly don't believe he is a real painter, but a wannabe who had a little money and thought he'd open a business. If you want someone who stands by you and his performance with your project, Joe Fortino is NOT your man. When it happens to you, don't say you weren't warned! Any man who will not keep his word is a real piece of (hmmm) work...

I made an appointment on the website for someone to come give an estimate to paint the exterior of…read moreour house. The appointment was for 4pm yesterday. I got several texts, one saying they were on the way and the last one said they were 5 minutes out, but no one showed up and no one has responded to my text asking why no one showed up. All communication seems to be on auto-response. Not a good way to do business.
