Russell Painting & Remodeling

Russell Painting/Remodeling, located at 1350 Sunny Side Road, Philadelphia, TN and owned by Mr. Tim Russell and Mr. Jerry Russell, were contracted to do remodeling and painting at my residence in Knoxville, TN. During the course of the remodeling and painting, money, a hand gun, jewelry, and sterling silver service items were stolen from my home. An employee of Russell Painting/Remodeling was arrested for the theft and some of the items were recovered. The employee was identified through items that he pawned. However, some of the jewelry, the hand gun and several of the sterling silver service items, valued at over $1,750.00, were not recovered.
Additionally, at the time of negotiating the contract, Mr. Tim Russell stated he was a licensed and bonded contractor. Unfortunately, that proved to be false.
After discussions with Mr. Tim Russell and Mr. Jerry Russell, they refused to try to settle this situation.
Due to the false statements given to me, due to the criminal behavior of the employees of Russell Painting/Remodeling, and due to the fact that Russell Painting/Remodeling refuse to resolve this problem; I would recommend no one do business with this company or with any company of which the Russell’s are involved.

The owner Tim Russell borrow money from me for his so called painting business in 2012 and has not paid it back and he deposited a bunch of bad checks from his closed bisness account into my checking account and wrote 18,000.00 dollars worth of bad checks while I was out of state. This man is a thief, a liar and a great conman. Do not let him in your home and if you see him call the police because he's wanted by the cops and will be going to prison for a very very long time!!!
