Can't I give him a ZERO?
"Kearns Painting" is a "company" of one individual, whose license is apparently in some dispute. Not surprising, given that he's being investigated for improper toxics handling, or perhaps due to some of his very unhappy customers taking issue with his bizarre behavior and/or irresponsible work.
Joe Kearns is a weasel, and probably a sociopath as well. He will put on the "best friend / nice guy" act as long as you keep answering his strangely inappropriate questions (as if he were casing the joint). Then once you catch on, you'll likely figure out that he's not interested in the job he's doing so much as finding some angle he can exploit to benefit himself.
His "skills" are limited at best, his efficiency is abysmal (took months to finish a job that should have taken weeks, AND did a poor job, AND damaged other property which he didn't report), and if all that weren't enough, who the heck would want a guy working on your home all day who's been arrested by the Benicia Police Dept (check it, it's public record) for peeping through windows of all things? Wish I'd known about THAT one.
Do yourself a favor. Hire a real painting contractor, whose references you can check personally. I wish I had.

Joe Kearns is a terrific painter! He was highly recommended by my real estate agent, who has used Joe to paint several of her own homes and clients' homes. Joe is very detail-oriented, great with communication, and reasonably priced. He fixed a mess left behind by my first painter, correcting errors and making my old house look like new!
