Paying top dollar for painter. Didn't completely scrape house and is now painting. Normal?
Ok maybe we're not paying top dollar, but we're paying close to 5k. The guys "scraped" (sanded and power washed) for two days. We have a rather large old farm house. They only removed maybe half of the old paint. There were still huge portions of flaky, old paint. I figured they would "scrape" for at least one more day, but the next day they started priming it. Last night after they left, I walked around the house and noticed tons of areas that are obvious to anyone that they were untouched until the paint hit. We have two dormers, both of which were not washed, scraped, or sanded before they started painting. They even neglected to knock down the wasps nest in the top corner of the dormers. I just need to know if this is normal, how should I bring this up, do I have a right to be outraged... which I currently am. Oh and just a few other little things I've noticed that seem fairly unprofessional: No covering of windows, no covering of porches that aren't being painted, paint runs all over... there is more but i'm really interested in the lack of scraping. Please help if you can! :)
