If you hire Curt Mills to do a painting job, be sure you get a written estimate first. He told me the interior of our house would take 20 gallons and that the paint would be $20 a gallon (I was to pay Wahl Paint Center separately for the paint). As it turned out, we were charged for 38 gallons of paint. After the fact, I asked Curt to send me an invoice stating that he used 38 gallons for the interior of our house, and to sign it -- of course, I never heard from him again. I have no problem with the guys who did the painting, though -- they did a good job. I was a little surprised when Wahl Paint Center charged my Visa $1,216.10 for the paint because I was expecting it to be under $500. The first time I called the store, I asked the guy to round up all the invoices to make sure all that paint was for our house. He did, and the invoices did not add up to the 38 gallons they charged so I assumed we would get a credit back to our Visa. When we did not get a credit back to our Visa, I talked to the manager and he informed me that they had another invoice with someone else's name and address on it, but it was really for our house. Does this sound "fishy" to anyone else besides me? Just saying.......
