Oasis Construction

Please find our response to Oasis Painting and Services, Clifford
B[redacted], Melissa C[redacted] or Melissa B[redacted], et al regarding complaint ID
[redacted]
Upon reading Oasis’s response, one must conclude they are being
disingenuous and response is immaterial, irrelevant and incompetent.  Therefore, we disagree with their response
and hereby submit our objection and response. 
Who cares when I am moving, when the home was lasted painted, quotes for
siding, etc.?  The issues are did Oasis
complete the job, break and entry, trespass and threaten people?  Also, it is laughable that Oasis would
mention a contractor we alleged worked with us and doesn’t even know his full name
– just [redacted] from the email I sent Oasis showing that [redacted] (Mr. [redacted]) would
charge $25.00 an hour for the job.    
Trespass: Similar to burglary, trespass is defined as knowingly entering onto
private property without the authority to do so. The difference between the two
crimes is that trespass does not have the second element explained above
(intending to commit another crime inside).
Trespass onto land is a fourth degree misdemeanor, and includes
knowingly entering or remaining on private property without authority to do so.
As this definition implies, the defendant must have had notice that the land
was private, which may be given in several ways. Some examples include conspicuously
posted signs (such as those reading “No Trespassing” or “Private Property”),
actual communication from the property owner or an agent (such as a security
guard), or other obvious indicators of private property such as fences or
gates. (Oh. Rev. Code Ann. § 2911.21.)
Fourth degree felony: 6 to 18 months in prison
Fourth degree felony: $5,000
If Oasis’s response is to be believable, we
are confident Oasis can provide affidavits and invoices for the following (and
you Revdex.com probably have additional requests from Oasis):
An affidavit from Mr. [redacted] that he performed
any type of work at [redacted].  We can categorically state, Mr. [redacted] never
performed any type of work to require any payments. 
Mr. [redacted] can be reached at ([redacted])
[redacted] or email him at [redacted].  As late as July 17, we were still trying to
elicit his help.  Mr. [redacted] can
corroborate this.
“To:
[redacted]
Jul
17
Mr. [redacted], no response is required if you
are still busy. If not we still need some wood repair and finish painting the
exterior of our house.  Thanks,” 
Oasis needs to provide invoices for EXTERIOR paint,
EXTERIOR primer, 1/2X6 Cedar siding to repair wood (due to the fact Oasis had
painted the area with INTERIOR PAINT) and caulking to be used on the home since
the one (1) and only contract states, “Needs extensive caulking done???”  Your office has the contract.
NOTE:  Due to the fact the job was not completed, Oasis
forfeited any payments.  Thus, the return
of monies paid $913.00 plus $1000.00 (which was never mentioned in Oasis’s
response) must be returned to the homeowner.
We
have invoices for brushes, rollers, primer, paint and caulk in order to prep
the house upon request.  THE HOUSE LOOKS
GREAT NOW. Affidavit
from Oasis stating they completed the job. 
The contract specifically states, one-third down and the remainder upon
completion of the job.  As Oasis is aware
their job was inferior, sloppy (over sprayed interior paint on windows and
doors they did paint) and due to breaking and entry, trespassing and threats to
the neighbors like common thieves and thugs, they were fired on July 11, 2015,
around 4:00 PM. Affidavit
from Oasis stating they didn’t break and enter into a locked garage by jumping
a locked fence where No Trespassing signs were posted.  Newark Police report 15-16272 filed on July 11, 2015.Affidavit from Oasis verifying they have no property
still at [redacted]  They
still have their tarps, paint buckets and some old brushes in the garage.Affidavit from Oasis as to why they were charging us $250.00
(see bottom of contract) when we had originally agreed to repair the same for
$2,000.00.  Hence a violation of the
contract and us hiring another contractor to repair wood for $50.00. 
NOTE: 
There are on-line price estimators for painting projects, plus the
neighbor and Mr. [redacted] were to charge only $25.00 an hour.  For $2,000.00 the neighbor and Mr. [redacted]
could have painted for 80 hours! 
Affidavit how Oasis arrived at the $3,700.00 then $2,000.00
cost to paint house?Affidavit from Oasis as to how they arrived at hours
worked because their work was inferior and incomplete, the alleged power wash
had no solution only water (neighbors can verify), one worker working on one 5
by 5 area for his time on-site, prepping was non-existent, priming non-existent,
caulking non- existent and using INTERIOR PAINT FOR AN EXTERIOR JOB AND THE
WRONG PAINT COLOR is laughable and unprofessional.  When it rained the paint was running off the
house!  Newark Detective has photos of
the house and forced entry.Affidavit from Oasis that it was raining on June 1. We
have information from the U.S. Department of Commerce National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration, which specifically shows NO RAIN in Newark, Ohio,
43055 on that date.  We have a report for
all dates for the month of June 2015. Affidavit from Oasis that we spoke by phone and when
after the breaking and entry, trespassing and threats after July 11 to allege
nothing was taken or left on-site.  If true
why would we file a police report? Affidavit that we spoke about completing the job.  If as he says, “My crew had already unloaded
all equipment before neighbor approached me.” We have no calls from Oasis regarding this.Affidavit from Oasis as to how can one re-scrape an area
if properly scraped and prepped?  It is
unlikely one can scrape an area properly prepared.Affidavit from Oasis as to why they used INTERIOR PAINT
FOR AN EXTERIOR JOB?  Hopefully, they don’t
blame [redacted]!  As all can see by the
tenor of Oasis’s response, they blame everyone for their ineptitude.Affidavit from Cliff B[redacted], Leo, Alex, Ryan and Tom as
to why they came back to my home on July the 12th, when we emailed
Oasis informing them not to set foot on my property again.

Cliff of Oasis Painting,
This email is to inform you that your services will be terminated due
to a breach of the contract and neighbor’s complaint of harassment by
you.  The neighbors are not stupid and they know the story about
you.  What is up with all the stories?  Big talk and no results. 
Everyone is the blame except you, e.g., one complaint was too picky, allegedly
fired Logan because he messed up a job but Logan said you were being cheap;
store mixed the wrong paint three times, I wasn’t home even though you didn’t
notify us, if you came to work you didn’t need me, etc.
If anyone representing your company calls, enters my property or
lingers in front of my house will be considered trespassing and we will
immediately notify the police.
In closing, I tried to resolve the issue but other contractors and
Oasis’s contract state since work was not completed Oasis is not deserving of
any monies.  The neighbor’s police report
will contradict Oasis’s allegations that they had unload any equipment to begin
any type of work. 
The [redacted] stated, they would attend court if needed due to
Mr. B[redacted]’s unprofessional and want to be ‘tough guy’ attitude toward
them.  Mr. [redacted].
Even if this was true, they had no legal right or need to break
into my garage.  They could have worked
on the three sides outside the fenced in area. 
One has to question how a job
using the wrong color paint, interior paint and no caulk is acceptable!
Please stop by the home OR HAVE SOMEONE THIS
WEEK, Mr. B[redacted] could have at least finished prepping and caulking the house,
which wasn’t, even though it has been rainy there have been nice days to at
least finish prepping and caulking.  The
new vendor and I have been prepping and caulking.  Also, since it is an exterior job there was
no reason for me to be home unless he was finished and ready for payment.  It has been three months since we signed the
agreement.  Plus, a chance to speak with
the neighbors who can give an independent and unbiased assessment of the issue
(even though their report to the police does the same).
Revdex.com if you
require invoices please let us know, e.g., primer, caulk, cedar siding, brushes,
rollers, etc. we purchased to complete the job. 
Hence, the only resolution is full reparations of monies totaling $1,913.00
and our complaint be filed with any applicable regulatory agencies.   Disagreements are resolved by evidence and not talk.
Regards,
[redacted], **.

I apologize that the that the work was not met to your standards we strive to do quality work . that being said I would like to offer 300.00 as a refund to you in hopes that this will care of your complaint .

[redacted] and his team are great and do a fantastic job!!!!
They care about there work and do not rush a job.
They painted our outside of our house and it looks like a new house. I will be calling them to paint my inside of our house soon.
We have also referred them to our friends and they have used them and have been very happy with there work also
Thanks
Tammy

We where originally contacted on Thursday, April 30th, 2015 by Mr. [redacted] of [redacted] Ohio to give him a free estimate for exterior painting of his whole house, porch, power wash dirt and caulk as needed. I went out on Friday, May 1st , 2015, at 6:30 p.m. and gave Mr. [redacted] a free estimate at a...

price of $3,700.00 (see attached fax of original contract). He stated that he was moving in less than 2 years. and had gotten an estimate for $8,000.00 for siding, but did not want to incur such expense. He stated that he did not want to pay an absorbent cost of $5,000.00 or more for the re-painting of his home. He said that his home was built in 1940. That he had his home re-painted two years ago, and that it was starting to peel profusely. And that it needed extensive caulking done. I explained to Mr. [redacted] after looking at his home, that the reason why the paint was peeling was obvious just by looking at it, and pointed out to him where there was no primer showing from underneath the peeling paint, The contract was written up as a start date of June 1st,2015 per Mr. [redacted]'s request. Areas to be painted per the contract: Entire house, gutters, and downspouts. Prep, scrape all loose paint and prime, paint trim and wood siding. Repair the peak, soffit and three boards on porch, right board on top front window. Caulk seam on right front and add foam to peak.We then where sent an email from [redacted] requesting a lower price due to the fact that he had already contracted a fellow named [redacted] thru a company called [redacted] where he was awaiting a reply from [redacted] of [redacted], because [redacted] still needed to come back and have job completed and wanted [redacted] to also complete repair by May 18th with repair of 4 windows, one soffit and paint whole house. On June 1st we revised the contract with [redacted] for $2767.00. Per [redacted] request, (see attached emails), we did not start painting on June 1st due to rain.We power washed Mr. [redacted]'s home in May of 2015 at which time he had paid the 1/3 down pursuant to the contract of $913.11, which left a balance of $1,853.89.On the first day we where on the job Mr. [redacted] had breached the contract for the first time, and had had his neighbor eplace all the wood that we where to replace in our contract. We  then had three employees named Ricky, Billy,and Alex who started on Monday June 8th and worked from 2 pm to 7 pm, on Tuesday June 9th we had Ricky , Alex, and Logan work from 2 pm to 6:30 pm . On Wednesday June 10th I  had Ricky work from 7:30 am to 7 pm, Logan from 9 am to 9 pm and Alex for one hour. On Thursday June 11th Logan from 7 am to noon and then again from 3 pm to 7:30 pm. Sean worked that day from 7 am to 7:30 pm . I had a crew there of 5 men totaling 68 1/2 hours of power washing scraping, priming and painting, and caulking. Each phase of the job was approved by Mr. [redacted], so that we could move forward to the following phase. Mr. [redacted]'s home is approximately 2000 square feet. We then attempted to go back on two different days to complete the job and Mr. [redacted] did not feel that the wood was dry enough. We then went back on Sunday July 12th, myself, Leo, Alex, Ryan, and Tom. Mr. [redacted] was not home, and the neighbor next door had informed me that [redacted] had hired him to do the job for $700 and that was hired to help [redacted] finish the house. This was the second breach of contract by Mr. [redacted].The house was in shambles! And the two of them had re-scrapped all the primer and paint that we had put previously applied  on the home. All we had left to paint was a quarter of one side of the home, (all the trim had already been completed by us), and paint the back of the house only, this was all that was left to do. My crew had already unloaded all equipment needed before the neighbor had approached me. I then told my crew to reload all equipment and we left. I then got an email from Mr. [redacted] later that night saying that his neighbor made accusations that we had broken into his garage  and took our own sprayer. I was stunned and amazed and asked to what was he referring to?? We had no property to my knowledge ever left at Mr. [redacted]'s property. He said that nothing was taken or missing, but that his neighbor said that he had saw us go into his garage. After talking for a while [redacted] and I agreed that we would come back the following day to complete the job. Then the following day [redacted] emailed to say that he just wanted to rescind and terminate the contract, that he wanted me to pay him $800 . He said that if I paid him $800 that he would then not try and press charges, or cause us any trouble with the Revdex.com. If I did not pay him within the 24 hour period, that then the amount would increase by $200 daily and he would try to cause me problems.I am in such bewilderment and shock, I have never in almost 25 years of business dealt with such an unscrupulous individual as Mr. [redacted] and his neighbor. The accusations are atrocious not to mention hurtful.We are trusted in peoples homes, banks after hours, corporations, etc...  I can not believe that some one would go to such lengths as to get out of paying for a job. We also have [redacted]'s phone number who says that Mr. [redacted] ran him off his property without paying him for his work also. I feel sorry for the next contractor that does work on Mr. [redacted]'s home and doesn't get paid either, as this seems to be a reoccurring offense that [redacted] has breached our contract and others. Unfortunately this has been an unnecessary learning experience for me and we are pursuing litigation for breech of contract against Mr. [redacted].Kindest regards,Clifford B[redacted] PS Please send me an email with your fax number so that I can fax you the contracts.

I totally disagree with [redacted] I did all work as required per pay

Cliff [redacted], owner of Oasis Painting ,did a beautiful job. He took our builder-quality, raised grain oak cupboards and turned them into smooth, no grain showing painted cupboards. They look really great in our re-done kitchen and the price was reasonable for our budget.

I reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint [redacted], and find...

the resolution is satisfactory to me. At this point I have no other choice as I am not going to sit around and wait for any other resolution. I will accept the refund and fix the issues myself.

Attached is a contract that I had with Oasis Painting & Services. I paid the $2,750, but the work was never completed.[redacted]###-###-####

[redacted]This company contacted me, using [redacted] from, [redacted], at###-###-#### as the mediator. She called possibly, October5, 2016, to see when the company could come out to make the necessaryrepairs. The appointed date for repairs is set for, October 13th,Thursday, 2016, at 10:00...

am.I told her that since I had already secured my handyman to nail down andto secure the seams with Asphalt Cement, on the doormer, I was notgoing to rip that up and start over at this point in time since I hadpaid my handyman an extra $40 plus $8 for the Asphalt Roofing Cement.My handyman offered to do the job for free, but since he had alreadyput in a 12 hour day, I gave him a token amount just to say,"Thankyou."I reread the contract seeing that they said that they would useRoll On Roofing material instead of the Rubberized Roofing material.At the time that the contract was written, I did not know thedifference between the two products. Plus, I trusted that what CliffordSr. said he would do, he would do. I had no idea that I wassigning for Roll on, not Rubberized. I took him at his word that hewas telling me the truth. I had no clue that he was lying to me.Now that the doormer has been repaired, Oasis only needs to repair,the valley between the two roofs. I did ask that they return$550.00 of the $1150.00 because they promised to put down Rubberizedroofing, and instead used Roll On Roofing, even though the contractwas accurate....so it is a matter of my word, verses, what waspromised, by Clifford Sr.

We are so pleased with the work that [redacted] did on the exterior of our cedar and stucco home! It looks beautiful! No mess, he even put covers over our foliage and drive way. Everything was left immaculate! His staff where respectful and courteous. Thanks again [redacted]!

In regards to the complaint filed by [redacted], I Clifford Br[redacted] the owner of Oasis Constructitn am agreeing to pay $300.00 to resolve this dispute. I do not feel that Oasis Construction is at fault in this matter. But out of good faith and to satisfy Mr. [redacted], I am willing to resolve this matter to satisfy the customer.Sincerely,Clifford K B[redacted]
