You need to stay away

I never write reviews, and would never unjustly hurt someone's ability to earn a living, but the neighborhood needs to know. I recently hired Daniel and fired him on the 3rd day of work. Very odd and unprofessional person who used vulgar and racist language. The only day he worked a full day was the first day (the day he needed deposit money). After that, he would start when he wanted. No prep work, no caulk, no drop cloths, no painters tape, but don't dare ask him about those things or he will get aggravated. He told me it would be a 4 day job. When I asked if he'd be done by the following week (8 days later), he complained that I was rushing him. His lift was repossessed by the leasing company on the first day. The worst had to be when he got paint on our brand new door hardware (because, no prep or tape) he decided to clean it off with paint thinner, completely ruining the finish of the hardware. After firing him, I found he was using 9-month-old paint leftover from another job, despite needing my deposit money on Day 1 so he could go buy all the materials. He took $1,000 from me and bought $144 in paint just to get started, not even for the entire job (he gave me the receipt). He was very nice in conversations prior to hiring him, but once he got started it was a very uncomfortable interaction. I wish I had simply Googled him in advance. His company, Daniel Vitale Painting, LLC, is not registered with the state and doesn't exist.

Junkie contractor, don't deal with him!

Typical junkie contractor. Watch out for him, he'll steal your shit and use it to score dope. I've seen him blowing bags before starting paint jobs. Look at his teeth and face and you'll instantly know who you're dealing with. total con

Daniel Vitale is a terrible craftsmen, a shoddy businesman, and an absolute low life of a human being. Despite his bragging about "painting half the houses in society hill", since I have been ripped off by him I have found numerous others that got scammed. The work that he does is so poor, it barely lasts through the end of the season in which he painted. Our lintels started flaking within a few weeks of Danny's painting. Also, he stole money from us by takng deposits and payments for work that he never intended to do, and he eventually stopped responding to all outreach including calls and texts. He feels entirely comfortable robbing and stealing from the hard working people in this area who pay him based on the professional accolades he made up for himself: he was NEVER union trained and his painting shows. He didn't prime and painted with an oil based paint (a color he had left over that he forced onto us because "it looks just like the one you want) over latex based paint.

He rolled paint in our back yard which dripped over windows and on the ground which he never cleaned up, and he painted our windows shut.

Ask around and you'll hear what people really think of him. he has been ripping off our neighborhoods for too long! Lastly, if you don't believe me, check out all the judgements against him on the small claims court website, and thats JUST in philadelphia (ive attached a photo)

NO ONE that intends to have a painting job completed professionally should look FAR PAST daniel vitale and not give him any business.
