DAN PHILLIPS CONSTRUCTION

His professionalism/safety was terrible. Witnessed him on several occasions doing everything (texting, taking breaks and lunches for hours each day, socializing with passer byes, sitting on his tail gate drinking a six pack before getting in his truck to leave driving through a development filled with playing children), but not focusing on job getting complete in time frame given in estimate. He claimed he could do the work and not disrupt the satellite dish. Not only did his claim fail and cost me money to have it realigned, but he only used 2 out of 6 of the bolts used to secure the dish leaving the others sitting on my chimney. I have several dents in my front gutter work where he placed his ladder to obtain roof access. It took him over 7 months to place drain spouts (which he left in my planter beds) even in the poor manor he did that (I worked doing sheet metal for 4 years). He left several scraps/garbage that he pulled off original siding in my back and front yards. He still has left my electrical boxes outside unsecured (safety) to the building and just hanging for over 7 months. Instead of cutting a hole around water fixtures he just cut out chunks of the siding around them which adds to how unprofessional the overall job looks, and then pulls out his favorite tool, the caulking gun to fill in his lack of skills. Do yourself a favor, hire someone that follows through on their word and has consistent work as well as someone who can stay within a reasonable margin of his bid. You might save some money in thought but he will increase his needs as he goes and your out of pocket expenses will compete with the guy who will do a better, more efficient, and timely job. He passed the codes on the bottom end of the scale. Maybe if you just need someone to nail up a board use him, but I after my experience (still as of 4/2010 not done), I wouldn't hire him for the simplest of tasks.It is my belief he only obtained the job through the help of the HOA management woman who pushed to use him & I would not be the least bit surprised if she didn't get some sort of payment for lining him up with the job.
