Am I Being Too Picky?
i paid £600 to have the hallway, landing and stairs of my three bed semi plastered last week. There are a few bits that will need filling and sanding, but i am happy with the end result. What i am not happy about is the state my door frames and new wood floor were left in. There is basically plaster all over the frames, my pvc door frame is the worst as it's over the entire perimeter and about 1 inch in depth. I have spent nearly two hours cleaning my wood floor which had dried on plaster and plaster residue all over it, and the majority on the downstairs hall way still has a very thin coat of plaster on it. I did text the guy who done it saying i wasn't happy with how things were left and he is saying he will come back to clean my floor (mainly because he doesn't want me to leave him a bad review on the website he advertises on) but i can tell he is not happy about it. My question is do you think i am being too picky - would you expect to have to spend ages cleaning up after you have work done? and should i ask him to get all the plaster off the door frames when he comes to do the floor?
and before anyone says anything he said he would cover my floors when he came to quote and i wasn't there when it was being done. They also swamped my floor in water just before i came back which made it look like it was clean and just wet
