Because she didn't like the color on her house. She picked BM Shaker Beige with white trim.
It was an aluminum bungalow with attached garage. We did a great job. The first day, she was there when we prepped and sprayed the window casings white.
The next day, we sprayed the siding but she was out of town. We finish the job and she calls me this morning to tell me she doesn't like the color and can't pay for it.
Well, I can take a lot of [email protected]@t, but if you mess with my money, you unleash the beast.
I had to wind up raising my voice to the highest level. She picked the color, not me, but she said it was too yellow and she told me no yellow.
I told her I was not responsible for the color, she picked it. She told me she consulted me on it. I told her that I told her to get sample paint and put a few swatches on the house. She didn't do that. Said she didn't need to.
There was about six weeks time in between her signing the contract, and us starting the work. She didn't pick the color until the day we pressure washed it.
I told her I can repaint the siding, but she needs to pay me for the work done first. And that there would be another charge to repaint.
After some back and forth she broke down and told me to come over for the check.
Now I have to hope that it clears.
