Edit: I will keep my original review below to illustrate just how the project ended up going.

Floors: 3/4 was left unfinished. The 1/4 that was completed had to be torn up because it was done incorrectly and was already coming apart.
Drywall: walls were not flush so trim wasn’t able sit flush to the wall (some areas were up to 4 inches bow from the wall)
Mudding: Left unhanded in parts or tape exposed
Painting: 1/4 left unfinished, lots of noticeable drips that have dried to the wall. Did not clean areas before painting so cob webs are painted and dusty areas are now textured because they were just painted over
Trim: not done at all
Attendance: showed up late( hours) everyday that we had a scheduled start time. Worked approx 2-4 hours a day so the project took way longer than expected.
Payment: Paid in full

To be completely honest, I almost didn't hire Rene. Why? Because it seemed too good to be true. Him and his wife are so kind, communicative, well priced, eager to make you happy and incredibly good at their job. It's hard to believe folks like this exist. Im so glad I hired them. They painted the exterior of our house. Rene was great at giving feedback and opinions of design and problem solving.
I would 100% recommend this amazing team and will be hiring them again for further jobs.

Hi Abby!

We're sad to see the bad review you have left us was because of us not wanting to throw out your personal garbage that wasn't part of our contract. Although, we are proud, and glad to see that after a week of finishing the renovation project in your home, you had managed to sell it. It shows to us that the people who had bought your house had loved the work we had done, and everyone who sees this review, we invite you to see the pictures of this beautiful project on our profile.

Thank you, Abby.

*Edit* Taken for a ride! Learn from my mistake

Edit: I will keep my original review below to illustrate just how good these guys were are manipulation. The work ended up being extremely sub par. Paint was left on so many surfaces that paint was no supposed to end up. Walls were dented, not flush (baseboards have 3 inches of space behind them in some parts of the house). But more importantly, when I called them out for blatantly misleading us on one of our charges, they disappeared. They did not finish the job (and a lot was not even close to being. completed), they did not refund our money, they only provided a few fraudulent documents they adjusted to try to support the fib, they just disappeared. And we had a great relationship before this. We are so disappointed. We have two small kids and we are in the middle of a pandemic, so being taken advantage of really stings. Please don't make the same mistake we did. And if you do, make sure you have them document everything from start to finish, have contracts, these guys are not your friends. Don't treat them as such.
