Door was installed yesterday but seller refused to paint/ finish and said agreement doesn’t include paint, really? Who will consider a door is completed without finish?
After ordering a nice door and sending crew to start work at 7:30am (installment done before 3pm), not to complete the last mile, really?
I asked for $100 to hire someone to finish it up (a pro quote was $280) and my agent and I got an angry call and email from the seller team. $100, a little drop in the ocean compared to the house cost, worked up multiple people, really?
I end up paint the door myself. I thought it’d be fast, less than 1hr yet total prep, paint twice, cleanup took 5-6 hours. Not the best painted door yet one of the best ‘cared’ painted door. Bonus: (1) I can do it, it’s not hard, (2) I’ve learned to appreciate all works, painting takes skill, not just swing brush, (3) I also learned about the brushes, not just size difference but shape, texture of bristle, (4) most importantly, I felt calm painting. I love art, it’s a different canvas!
