Paid but hasnt done work

We hired Eugene loue from Genesis coatings to fix our pool, do our water proofing and fix our ceiling in the entertainment area, kitchen cupoards as well as various other things around the home that needed renovations. We were quoted by Mason. Also known as Eugene louw . He really hounded us for a deposit saying he had already bought supplies for these things because we thought it was a fair quote he gave us. Well Mason or Eugene louw was given the deposit. He came 1 week after we gave him deposit and used the bad weather as excuse . So we let it slide. He drained our pool and painted it. Then he said the paint needed 7 days to dry before he could proceed.

After that he asked as to pay balance payment. This was after a week and we said we would only pay balance once we saw acceptable progress on what we were quoted for. To date it has 6 weeks after we paid him a deposit and all he has done is srain and paint the pool and uses weather as his excuse. Yeaterday sunday 17 december he confirmed to my husband he would come. To sort it out and he conveniently is in pretoria and can only come later. We have been hearing this for 6bweeks. Its either hospital or bad weather or i will come tomorrow of which tomorrow never comes. Please people avoid genesis coatings to do any work. He is ****ing people as a way of earning a living and this seems to be a trend
