QUOTE(MsPopcorn @ Dec 25 2017, 08:36 PM) i hired contractors to repaint.. about paint matter, best u can seek advise from those paint consultants directly when u purchase the paint I thought the contractors will recommend the paint and they will buy themselves cos they will know how much paint is needed ? If U buy yourself, then if excess, then wasted money, right, as can't return the unused cans of paint. |

QUOTE(MsPopcorn @ Dec 25 2017, 10:16 PM) nope..of course you can buy yourself if u want, just pay him for labor fee only why? because sometimes the contractor usually buy less than amount required or buy lower grade paint with higher price tag or keep request money from u because the paint is finished (more than required quantity) there are many ways for them to songlap ur money if u dont aware. so usually i will ask how many pail of paint he wanted then i will go to paint shop to buy. if finished, then i will go to buy again. For sure there is balance, but wont be more than 1 pail, unless the contractor is inexperience. The balance i will keep to touch up my house if needed. I thought contractor would quote a fixed price say RM3,000 to paint the whole house using what type of paint ? Then U can go see him painting using the stated paint as agreed. |
