Help / Advice Needed ---Painting ---Urgent !

Featured Replies

Hi everyone

I need ur kind advice urgently.

I engaged a ID to do my Reno and it goes okay until now..... Except that....

Now the painter (subcontractor) started painting on wed, we found it nearly finished on sat!

However, we found they used a very cheap and low end and very smelly paint for us!!

It is Nippon matex and ICI super maxilite. Both are very cheap and smelly! Totally different from what we agreed in the contract ( which is Nippon vim ilex 5000)

I am pregnant, we did tell the ID that the paint must be good, but now it still happened like this .....

My concern now are, the paint is very harmful to me and bb, I am not sure when I can move in.... How long I should wait.... I am renting outside and really need to move in ASAP but now seems impossible to do so

2nd , I heard that this kind of low end paint will not last long, in 6 mth, there will be powder coming down and color will be lighter and lighter.... I cannot accept this kind of quality... And take the risk in the future.....

What shall I do? Really depressed.... Need ur advice urgently.... Thx

Anything I can do now?

Repaint with good paint again?

I guess Repaint doesn't help anything on hiding the harm of the smelly low end paint?

Any other pros and cons or alternative way I can go with except arguing with the ID?
