pierce...I won't point out the fact that you shouldn't have painted the walls since others have. In the future, assuming this was for photography purposes, use painted 4x8 plywood sheets as a background. I digress.

I think the issue at hand is that we are dealing with paint. I can't see how he can push for having the whole basement cemented. There has to be a way to fix the problem to everyone's satisfaction without having to re-cement the basement. Make no mistake, it is up to you to make it right.

I would recommend having an estimate from at least 2 or 3 PROFESSIONAL painters. Get their opinions and estimates and take them to the landlord. Tell them the plan to get the property back to a satisfactory condition and tell him that YOU and your roommate(s) are the ones paying.

Finally, follow through with it.
