DAVE'S CONSTRUCTION & REPAIR

I received three quotes in from three general contractors to rehabilitate my garage and Dave?s price was the lowest by far (about 40% less then the next quote).  Usually that much of a price difference would scare me off from the low bidder (like he forgot to include something in his price) but we agreed on a progress payment schedule that I thought was fair to both of us.  And in the end he came in about $1,000 less than his original proposal.

In terms of the timeline, I found him on Angie?s List and had him come out to the house and give me a budget quote.  He didn?t have paperwork with his letter-head or business cards, which made my antennas go up.  So I met him on another older home rehabilitation project that he was working on to look at his work.  The quality was impressive and I was sold.

The ?B? grades on Responsiveness and Punctuality criteria are because he?s a one-man general contractor and he got spread a bit thin last summer.  The project progress got delayed by about a month because other project got squeezed in.  And it was understandable because those other projects were to make repairs so that those people could continue to live in their homes.  My garage project didn?t impact my home?s ?livability.?

Overall, Dave did a great job and I would definitely hire him again.       

They were fairly fast and they got the job done.  The price was decent, they went right to work, and there wasn’t any horsing around.

Over the course of about a month, Dave's Repair installed three, new, mini roofs on my apartment building. In addition, he tore down three old, and rotting porches, and replaced them. All of the work was excellent, and high quality. He also kept the price down by capitalizing on sales at the lumber yards where he obtained the materials. I definitely would use him again, and recommend him highly to others.

Dave seems very knowledgeable about household repairs in general. We are very satisfied with his work.

No problems at all.

This price is per hour. He was here when he said he would be. I would use them again in the future and would recommend them to others.

I was extremely satisfied with his work. He was able to come up with ideas that saved us time and plenty of money. He understood we had a tight budget and was always conscious of it. He has many contacts in the material supply business and was able to save us plenty of money. One example was the baseboard trim. We went to lumber company and spent about 2 hours looking through piles of lumber. It was time consuming but I estimate that it saved me $400-500. I am extremely satisfied with his work and have had to call him for emergency repairs and he was quick to respond.
