Decapua Painting & Home Improvement David Decapua delays, excuses then nearly scammed Lakewood Ohio
We had a solar company do damage to install a panel. The roof destroyed and inside, the ceiling need to be fix too. We got this name refer for Dave Decapua painting and was told he would make contact. This was Sept 10. We hear nothing from Mr. Decapua for 3 days.
Finally talk to him and explain the ceiling damage. He said he will come to look the next day about noon. That next day he says he have to reschedule, and this goes on like this for next several days. We make appointment, he says okay and promise a time, then he call back again and cannot make it. Meanwhile we have ceiling damage not getting fixxed.
Finally, we talk to him around Sept 19 and it's very strange, suddenly he starts saying how the other damage to roof needed to be repair first before he can repair the ceiling. Why not say this from the start? It came off really unprofessional, like he had no idea how to repair and paint the ceiling.
Here is where we avoided the ripoff: the solar company who cause the damage say they will pay the painter and roof people to fix. Funny how the roof company didn't ask us for any additional money to pay direct to them, but this painter did. Besides all the stalling & coming off as unprofessional, he tried to ask more money be paid to him directly from us!
This is red flag of a scam! By then we wasted almost 10 days with this painter. First he can't even show up. Then he keeps canceling. Then says other work needs to be done first , then nerve to ask for more money strait from us when he knew the solar company would be responsible to pay him? No way.
Please be very, very weary of doing business with Dave Decapua painting. We avoided being ripped off. This is to give warning to other people who think of calling him. We all need to do a part in helping our community avoid things like this.
