Nearly 3 weeks ago we employed a decorator to paint our living room and strip and paper our hall, stairs and landing, he came on the Saturday for a £50 deposit which I gladly paid, then he didn't turn up on the Monday (2 1/2 weeks ago) on Tues Wed and thurs we had him painting the lounge and he left early after 1 hr on the Friday and the lounge was still not finished, please bear in mind he said he would be finished completely on Friday and come to snag on Sat morning, we didn't see of hear from him again till the next Tuesday
He then started on the stripping and only stayed 2 hrs each day till Thursday and he got stuck in and it all started to look good, he came Friday to finish off and this was about 3-4 hrs work but I had to go to work so had no option but to pay the man as he wouldn't be paid till Sat and he wanted to do some banking so I finally agreed and went to work, I got home after my 8hr shift only to find he had gone out minutes after me and never came back till Sat morning with a ton of excuses asto why he had not got this finished, apparently he turned up at 13:55pm on Monday and as soon as my wife told him I would be home soon he legged it and came back on Tuesday demanding we buy more wallpaper even though he measured and told us what to buy, we have bent over backwards to let this guy finish the job, but he hasn't bothered turning up at all today and we still have a half decorated hall and stairs, landing. I am now fuming as he didn't bother turning up to day and still hasn't been in touch.........mad as hell
