House painting comes to a screeching halt

Last week I was all excited because we had finally planned on getting the house painted. Right now it is white with pink and purple trim, needless to say, this is long overdue. Well, we had decided on some colors and a house painter and thought we would have a beautifully painted house by the end of this week. Fast forward a few days and things have completely changed. Unfortunately the painter we hired was not doing the quality of work that I had hoped for and so we quickly stopped the work and decided it would be best to part ways after only 1 half day of work. Thankfully my neighbor was looking out for my best interest and pointed out some things that threw up some red flags right away. We are on hold now until we can find someone to do the work correctly.
