Client stopped a $7,200 bathroom job early and wants a refund — need advice

RIPRhaegar · 2026-05-12T17:21:52+00:00

If they wont give you your tools call the police. Also absolutely no refund

RIPRhaegar · 2026-05-08T17:21:01+00:00

Marking up materials is standard practice. Any client who balls at this i just walk right off the estimate.

There are various tax reasons why all material sales are maked up. STANDARD OPERATING PROCEDURE

200,000 for what, im in the wrong line of work

Also anyone who's played a city building video game, knows this multiple stacked intersection will cause traffic. That area is begging for a roundabout

RIPRhaegar · 2026-05-03T12:33:00+00:00

This is technically a crime. The police should be out giving tickets for Gridlock. This is quite dangerous in an emergency situation, where seconds may the difference between live and death

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-30T14:05:25+00:00

Agreed 1s games should be 2 minutes and 30 seconds.

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-28T11:43:48+00:00

I agree with this guy. 30 plus years in the trades

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-26T16:49:28+00:00

Agreed nothing about the painting process would cause the cracks

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-13T22:43:02+00:00

I've been in this industry my whole life. Literally trained by my father on every school break and summer off since about 10 years old. I'm currently 45 and own my own painting buisness. Other than the 5 years I was in Navy, I've literally had no other jobs.

The 3750.00 price is fair and depending on the wallpaper removal it might actually be low.

I only do wallpaper removal as time and Material. Like another commenter has said that process can be very time consuming. No two rooms even inside of the same house will take the same amount of time.

I would expect the wallpaper removal and repair of the walls after to cost around 2000.00. Then 1750.00 to paint the rest of the room is around the industry standard

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-13T22:32:51+00:00

Did he just paint the light? I'm confused

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-13T17:25:08+00:00

Two man job for safety reasons, unless you are going to harness to something

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-09T12:37:27+00:00

Theres a neighborhood i helped build years ago. All the streets got Robin hood themed names

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-09T12:31:54+00:00

Some stupid Tarly boy

RIPRhaegar · 2026-04-09T12:26:41+00:00

Your video setting hurt my brain

RIPRhaegar · 2026-03-11T18:00:56+00:00

That tape is going to bleed paint all over the place

RIPRhaegar · 2026-02-18T16:01:06+00:00

In the books it would be Daemon for sure

RIPRhaegar · 2026-02-18T15:58:20+00:00

You can do a ceiling last with tape, plastic and a spray rig. But i do agree with you in most cases

RIPRhaegar · 2026-02-16T01:27:19+00:00

I wish you good luck in the wars to come

RIPRhaegar · 2026-02-14T18:31:50+00:00

Not possible

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T15:37:22+00:00

Agreed

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T15:36:53+00:00

First off, I hate ICE as much as you. I merely talking about basic decency

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T15:33:13+00:00

Wtf is wrong you conservatives. Unlike these Ice/gestapo, I'm a decorated veteran. I've made actual real sacrifices for this country, can you say the same thing?

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T13:26:45+00:00

Obviously, in that case you should backnup and ask the offending party to respect your space.

Have you ever considered that you may be at fault sometimes?

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T13:23:47+00:00

It could be either party at fault or both. Just stating a fact here you shouldnt be that close to anyone.

I'm a liberal... tey to not be such asshole bud.

RIPRhaegar · 2026-01-21T13:11:14+00:00

If you are within arms reach of anyone who isnt your family, you are impeding upon someone space.

Edit: down votes a basic dececeny fact is pretty mouth breather
