"You will be happy with Dustin and his team."

"Worked with John and his crew a few years ago in 2012. Spent a significant amount of money on a paver patio with Kichler LED lights. The lights were expensive and under warranty for 15-years. I was told personally by John that *if they ever fail, just call and we will be over to replace them*. In March of 2018 I called and reported a light that was failing. John told me to put a piece of blue painters tape on it and that although they were busy, would be over as soon as they could. Over the next few months I followed-up with him as the light then completely failed. He guaranteed me that the light is still covered under the Kichler warranty but that they have been so busy that they have not been able to be out to replace. I asked if he would at least be able to get to it before the snow flies in 2018 as it was already October, and he said *yes, just give me your cell phone number again*. Never heard from him or his crew. In March of 2019 I started contacting him again as the blue painters tape is still on the failed light. I tried texting his cell phone and left him 2-3 messages on his answering machine at the main number of his office. It is May 22, 2019, and he has yet to even acknowledge that I called him or have an open issue. Finally, this past weekend I reached out to his vendor that he used to purchase my Kichler lights from, and they honored the warranty. I ended up pulling and replacing the light myself, but the light was at least replaced at no unit cost. While the crew was here and working they did a nice job. I paid for many lunches for them and treated his crew with absolute respect. I even left a cooler full of drinks out in the yard each day before I left for work for the crew as the summer was brutal that year. I opened my yard and patio up for any number of people that he wanted to bring over to show as a reference for sales that he was working on. This is the respect and courtesy I got in return. Very poor professionalism on Johns part. He knows better than to behave like this. He literally ignores the calls. Did not even bother to call me back and say, *sorry, been beyond busy, but we did not forget you*. Even though it has been 14-months and you would think that even the busiest teams would have found time to work in a light repair, I could have been given the courtesy of a reply. Very poor, John!"

"* Fraud Do Not Hire* Hired Dave Blankenship owner of Dave's Construction Design llc to build a retaining wall and do a complete remodeling of a bathroom. Gave us a quote and was paid $7,800 in October 2022 had excuses that we thought were legit and he stayed in contact till March 2023 when he was supposed to show up to start the jobs. Stopped answering calls and text from my husband and myself. He took our money and ran and is posting on social media him out at the bar. Sad you can't trust people anymore. Do not hire this man or his company."

"My husband and I decided to expand our existing driveway to make room for his work truck and to give the kids more room to play. I called Brian to get a quote which he was able to go out immediately and call me with a quote. As with most major purchases, we got a few different quotes from a few other companies. Brian was right in the middle when it came to pricing. I have seen his work and was really impressed so I was excited to work with him. He told me that his schedule will allow him to get to us mid-September or early October which was great for us. He recently came over to the house and told me that he would be able to get me into his schedule the following week - which was amazing! When he and one of his guys came over to measure and spray paint my lawn (which is still there), I mentioned to him that we have received a price from another company that is $1,000 lower than him. As soon as I said that, his whole demeanor changed. Almost as if he was appalled that I got another quote. Mind you, I did not sign the contract. Brian told me that he would not budge on the pricing and he would not honor the contract that stated he would cut the curb - he would only expand the driveway. Later in the day, speaking with my husband about what Brian had told me about the layout of the driveway, my husband had more questions. I had asked if Brian could talk with my husband since I was the middle man. My husband called and spoke with Brian and told him that instead of him cutting the curb (which was listed in the contract), we would want to get a price for him redoing the entire driveway including the expansion. Brian told my husband he would pull the dimensions of the driveway and get back to him. The next day, Brian sends my husband a text message (not even a phone call) saying he has work to do in Columbus and his pricing would never beat the other company. He never gave us a chance to use his services. He got defensive about us getting a new company quote. He was very unprofessional by texting and not calling. I would NOT recommend him - regardless of his work."
