Boy your hard on this guy. Door to door is traditional sales and the hardest thing in the world. Don't you remember fuller brush , Electrolux vacuums, the newspaper sales people and the milk guys as well as lawn service people. Not all are bad just many

Nick,
First you need to wait at least 30 days for concrete to cure before doing any painting or sealing, since this house is just being built this should not be a problem.
Second, make sure that whomever you get to do the work has a friction material added to the final coat, like 'shark grip' or equal, if you do not do this your garage or driveway may be very slippery when wet.

We do not really have security guards, they wave to the person at the guard gate, and they wave back. I wish we had real security

Buyer beware, rule of thumb!

This sounds like the same guy that was mentioned by a few people on Nextdoor this morning. He promised to do power washing, started the job, took money upfront, and never finished the work. His price was really high also.

Oh yes it is. The villages can and does have the right.

we just extended the driveway for our golf cart garage. The original driveways was painted when we bought the house, so now need to redo the entire thing. We interviewed 5 people, and decided on Aesthetic Concrete Design, Inc. There is a waiting list for most, so ours won't be done until 7-9 Jun. Ours will including grinding, painting and sealing. Not sure if the groups we considered do just sealing, but I'd think they would

BINGO, you hit the nail on the head. If you want something done you call the people you want to do it. I know he probably sounded very smart about it but you should never let someone just walk up to your door & hire them. Check with other people in TV, that's your best advertisement about getting someone instead of a scam artist. Tough lesson! Hope things work out for them.

If you are referring to soliciting - "The Villages" has no legal right to stop anyone from traveling along the county streets and sidewalks. "The Villages" has no legal right to stop anyone from entering your property and knocking on your door (only the property owner has that right). Put those two things together and solicitors can not be stopped by "The Villages". The "no soliciting rule" gets talked about now and then, but it is just an attempt to dissuade.

Thanks for the warning.

I got a quote for $600 to remove a dead palm tree. I said no. A few weeks later a man knocked on the door and said he saw it and would take it down and haul away for $65. No brainer. I tipped him $20.

Misconception that they can’t solicit — no enforcement.

Had a guy stop here wanting to reseal our driveway too. Had a beat-up white truck, no lettering, just a big black dog growling and barking. Scared he would come back after I told him no. Very pushy man. Gave me his card. Called Community Watch, who turned me over to Community Standards who both blew me off with "well there is no soliciting in TV" and that was it. So you're on your own and call the police.
