Dave Hill Handyman and Painting Services

Dave Hill never got back with me either via phone or email, I saw no reason to recontact him as I had given him my information. If he wasn't interested in doing the job then he should have told me right then and there, or even call to say he wasn't interested, but to totally just ignore a prospective client is not doing good business. If you live in the Leesburg ,Lady Lake, or Villages area I highly recommend NOT to hire him. All he needed to do was to make a call or email and say get someone else

.He came in on time and I gave him the thermostat that needed to be installed and programmed.  It was one of those that has several events. He attached the thermostat to the wall but said he was having trouble programming it.   I gave him the instruction book and he politely said he needed to go to his truck.  I never saw him again.  He just drove off.  He never charged me for the visit but than all he did was take the old thermostat off the wall and screw in the new one.  Would I use his services again? Not in this lifetime.  In the end my husband was the one who finished the work.

Found his name on a truck when we got our car serviced, Came to the house and showed him a closet that needed repair and a door that needed weatherstripping repaired/replaced. Spoke to him about several remodeling projects that we wanted done in the house(2 bathrooms/kitchen/painting etc) He assured us he could accomodate our needs. We waited a few weeks to have the closet done(3wks) did an ok job. We paid him on the spot and didnt question the price. I talked to him in detail about what I wanted done..purchased ceiling fans, paint, picked out vanities, tile etc and he kept telling me he was doing a remodeling project. He apologized and promised he would be finished the next week.........this went on for more than two months...then he just stopped answering my phone calls......... the job certainly would have been profitable for him so he was either very unprofessional or in over his head..........very disappointed...........wouldnt recommend him,  Why cant people do what they say they are going to do? There are so many other people out of work.........people who need the work..............where are those people? Those are the people I want to give MY money to

It turned out very well and I trusted them to be in my house without me there so they were trustworthy. I thought they were a little expensive but I will use them again in the future.

This was a lot more money than we had anticipated.  When you add in the A/C company and the electrician, this project was very much over budget.  The painting in the bedroom was substandard.  The rest of the bedroom was painted with a napped roller; the part Dave did was done with a smooth roller.  That was very unprofessional when it came to matching up a paint job.  The floor in the living room where it was replaced now squeaks.  I guess our options were weak floor or squeaking floor.  The fact of the matter is, that if I went into a home and caused a problem I would at least want to make it right.  Dave did not feel like he had a part in this.  If the $1705, was mostly material I could understand there would be no "wiggle" room.  We did not expect Dave to work for free, but to discount the bill a couple of hundred dollars would have been fair.  We had inquired at our first meeting about some additional work.  He never mentioned it when we paid him.  To me, that would indicate that he knew he had not done right by us.  On his truck it says that he is licensed and insured.  I called Lake County and he is not licensed as a contractor in Lake County.  Other businessmen have said that with the electrical problem, they would have turned it in for their insurance to handle.  Dave just took his $1705 and left.

Customewrs need to understand that if you tell him to do the job slowly, as fill-in work, then it will be slow.

On time,I would use him for anything. The price was extremely low. Very professional.

We felt confident in him from the first discussion with him as well as the referral source being very sound. Now we are into the 9th week of using their services and feel so strongly about his (and assistant) work ethic we want to let you know. The attention to detail is impeccable, follow-up exactly as committed to and always going the extra mile. Prices as well are extremely reasonable. Truly and artiste!
