Patrick Builders LLC
About us
In 1979, owner Pat Daugherty became a carpenter and began to work for builders and architects. He spent years learning every facet of the remodeling and building industry, from initial customer contact, to following up after a job has been completed. In 1993 he was given the opportunity to go on his own. Starting from humble means... a personal loan for a small pick-up truck and some tools, he grew to become a highly respected general contractor. Licensed, bonded, insured and a member in good standing with the BBB since 1993.

"Mr. [Member Name Removed] reviewed all work as demolition and construction progressed and gave full verbal approval upon completion of each. All work was completed as per contract. Upon completeion Mr. [Member Name Removed] refused to pay final draw. We tried contacting Mr. [Member Name Removed] on several occasions to resolve any concerns he had to no avail. This review is the first response we have had from Mr. [Member Name Removed] since the beginning of the year. It is our intenton to help Mr. [Member Name Removed] in anyway that falls within the contract boundries."
"[Member Name Removed] and [Member Name Removed] are wonderful people. Its always a pleasure to work with customers that enjoy being informed as work progresses."
"Thank you [Member Name Removed]. I felt so bad for you and Amy when I discovered what the problem was and how it could have been avoided."
Patrick returned my email requesting a quote within 24 hours saying that he could do the job. I had contacted other companies listed on Angie's List for quotes, but most didn't respond, and the one other company that did said it was too big of a job for them.
Patrick came the next day (Friday), walked the project and we discussed the options for what could be done. I also stressed that we would need some sort of access from the back of our house at the end of the day for our dogs to use the fenced in yard. He said that he would have a proposal to me the next day.
The next day (Saturday) the estimate and terms were in my email inbox. I asked how long the project would take, and when it could be started. During the busy summer months, I had expected a couple week wait, but he replied (Sunday) and said that he could start within a few days and that it would take about three days from start to finish. I agreed and he picked up the first draw the next day (Monday).
Delivery of building materials and dumpster were arranged for Friday. The dumpster came as planned, but the lumber showed up a day later due to a mistake by the material source. Patrick showed up Friday morning, and disassembled over 50% of the deck by himself. He took pictures before and during the demolition. These were later forwarded to his sub-contractor for reference.
Saturday was a busy day. Patrick and 4 other workers showed up to complete the demo, unload and move the lumber for the project, fixed a slope issue due to settling footers, and had the new deck floor installed that day. During the demo, it was identified that the stair stringers needed to be replaced, and an estimate for additional work was in my hand by the next day.
Monday, Patrick's sub-contractors showed up to continue working, but then it started to rain, and for some reason electrical power tools and rain do not work well together. Four days later (Friday), due to rain delay, the sub contractors showed up and started to work again. At the end of the day, I asked Patrick to come by and discuss the step heights on the stringers that were newly installed. He stopped by, we talked, and he agreed that they needed to be corrected and he said that he would contact the subs about the issue. Saturday morning the sub-contractors showed up and immediately began to fix the stairs. By the end of the day all work was completed and we had a deck that was ready for use. The final invoice was sent to me the next day, and the project fell into the estimated price range.
Patrick and his subs always cleaned up the area at the end of each day that they worked, ensured that we had egress from the back of the house to the yard, and were in constant communication to let us know when they would be arriving for work. They were a pleasant group to work with and discussed options for the project as work was in progress. All-in-all, we are happy with the end result.
"it is really easy to work for nice people. [Removed member name] and [Removed member name] are two great individules. Thank you for the review."
I made several attempts to get the company out to replace the spicket, Each time they had other more important things to do. After i call again to reschedule, no one called me back.
The oder was paid for in 2014 and I haven't heard anything else.
"we communicated to (removed member name) that the times he could be available were not possible for us to schedule his work because other clients were scheduled for installs. We called (removed member name) repeatedly and left messages without response. We assumed (removed member name) had decided not to install."
"thank you [member name removed] for the review. your kindness is much appreciated. We were very sorry the work on your stucco chimney was delayed due to the coldd weather that settled in during construction."
"Thanks for the review [removed member name]!.. I did the same service for this customer as I do for all my clients. The difference is "The Customer""
"I explained to this customer the cost of the kitchen. They made it clear to me they did not have that kind of money to spend. Then they suggested painting and caulking The cabinets and backsplash with a new counter top and kitchen floor. I gave them the opportunity for them to pay me by the hour to do this work. Because to do this kind of work I could not accurately estimate a price. I think what this review reveals to me is no matter how well you treat clients some will never be satisfied. Incidentally.... This was a $99.00 coupon for 2 hrs. Worth of handyman work. I was there for 3.5 doing the repair and did not charge Extra."
"Thus customer agreed to the terms before I began work. I explained to this customer fully all that i would need before I began working and I explained it would require more cost than the coupon she had purchased. She agreed to have me come and do the work. In addition I gave her a discount from the total cost of $100. The work was extremely difficult and required 2 men to complete."
He did a good job on the deck. He put extra screws and nails in. He put some shins in the railing that was loose. Pat did a good job. I would recommend him to someone else. He did everything I asked. He put down deck sealer, we used a can I had but he put it down for me. We had a good conversation.
"great to work for you [member name removed]"
"great to work for you [member name removed]."
I will definitely keep them in mind for any future needs.
"Thank you (member name removed). It was great to work for you."
Pat did a good job and it looks nice. He's very polite and came to do the work when he said he would. However I had asked several times for an estimate before he started the job and did not receive one. I was surprised that after my 2 hours I paid for at $99 the remaining 1-1.5 hrs cost $225. he did return $25. The next time I hire someone to do work I will insist on an estimate first.
