              I am very disappointed in the quality of work performed by a College Works Painting crew in *********. I contracted with Zach to paint the exterior of our house. Once he informed me that he and his one man crew had completed one side, I inspected their work. I was shocked at the poor quality. There remained an abundance of failed paint beneath the fresh, thin and uneven coating of paint. Bubbled paint and flaking paint was easily flicked away with a finger. Vertical joints were not caulked and over spray was evident on the downspouts although I was assured that they were removed prior to painting. Pointing out the poor quality, Zach assured me that he could fix it and wanted to show better, quality of work by the end of the day. At the end of the day he came to me to reinspect his work. Unfortunately and disappointingly it was little better than the morning and I determined it best they not continue. I sent a complaint, along with pictures, an invite to see the work firsthand and a request for a refund from his supervisor. His supervisor (****) contacted me by phone, refused to see the work firsthand, relied on photos to stand behind Zach's poor quality work and refused refunding any portion of the refund. The cost of paint and labor was just over half of the $2000 deposit. Zach stated when he left that day that he didn't make money, I'm out $2000 with nothing to show for it. I suspect his supervisor made money and did nothing.
