    Updated Homeowners Tale with a Warning (He even asked me for a review!)…read more l hired Dan Webster (Dog and Dan, North Bend) to paint a newly constructed shed beginning July 15. The shed is partially constructed with OSB, T-1-11 paneling and LP lap siding all of which are susceptible to severe water damage if not painted properly. I stressed to Dan the importance of complete coverage to protect this $10k shed, including spraying all accessible surfaces and back brushing. Dan responded: "of course" in a tone that said he didn't need me to tell him his business. I even paid to add a second exterior coat, two coats would be more protection. Dan knew complete coverage of the exterior was required for the warranty. He had trouble figuring out how to use his new equipment and finished on July 23. It was getting close to dusk. He said he would return the next week to fix overspray issues and to finish painting trim. We bagged garbage; he left it for me to dispose. He promptly asked me for a review. Early Aug I prepared to submit warranty documents with photos documenting the paint/caulk. Close inspection revealed Dan had not painted the bottom edge of the T-1--11 panels, or the underside of the four OSB doors, he missed segments of the bottom edge of the lap siding at a level from hip level down and did not caulk the windows. (I have photos documenting the issues.) I thought it best to discuss in person the areas that were missed; so I waited for him to respond to calls and texts. I waited patiently, but did not hear from Dan. Finally, on Sept 4 I reached him by phone and asked about his schedule. Despite knowing he had work to complete, his response was jarring: "I'm doing you a favor to even get you on my schedule" (direct quote) September came and it rained steadily for a week. Scary! Water ran down the siding following the contour of the lap inward and wetting the bottom edge of the lap. The bottom edge of the OSB is also wet - in many places unpainted and unprotected. Dan finally showed up on Sept 25 (2 months late) with a small paintbrush. Despite heavy rain during the day, he was prepared to paint only the bottom raw edge of the T-1-11 and the bottom raw edge of the lowest run of siding in the rain with the material WET. I showed Dan unpainted areas; he denies the problem exists. Dan claims I am seeing BEHIND the lap siding, which is IMPOSSIBLE since it is nailed tightly one run above another. Since the exterior is dark red the unpainted areas are quite visible, photos document the problems. I suggested he should have sprayed/brushed the bottom edge, he LAUGHS. Rather than fix his mistake, he denies the mistake. He was paid fully in cash in July. Clearly, I am no longer in his revenue stream so I am no longer important. While working in July, Dan made a point of telling me that since this is his business he wants to decline work and do only what he wants to do. He complained about how much he dislikes doing handyman work for a local real estate company. He doesn't like to be bossed around. "He's the boss." I treated him respectfully, I paid cash promptly, I fed him, I helped clean up his mess AND he told me I was the type of client he likes to work with. I would hate to be the real estate lady he doesn't like working with. Due to Dan's poor performance and delay, I am forced to hire a professional painter to re-paint my shed before the October rain destroys it. Dan left me with an expensive and worrisome problem.
